lyrics

My eyes in your face, staring at the wall. Here is where a grown man becomes a child again. It's just as well you've laid down your burdens, after such a long life. After so many years when you did nothing but consume. Nothing in this world rests easy at night. Your heart slows down, but you're bleeding out faster, drained, an empty sack. The pattern that you are is fragile. The pattern's all you are, and it dissolves. And I am a willing host for anything that's left: one quarter of your blood, the closest you will come to eternal life. And in good time, we'll circle round like crows, an open-mouthed farewell, ripping you apart. Your voice in my throat, your tremors in my arms: the disease of the father forced upon the son. I have finally found a home.

Black Harvest recommends:

Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius
by Abyssal

Fractured songwriting under layers of dense, suffocating atmosphere, and some amazing riffs that combine dissonance with a great sense of melody. Black Harvest

Vast Chains
by Jute Gyte

Twisted, insistent guitar work that drags you into a forest with very few clearings. Unsettling and unresolved, yet it's a wholly worthwhile journey if you listen with your full attention. Black Harvest

Rape Crisis Actor
by Crisis Actor

A dissonant death-grind project from Kishor and vocalist Nick Cacioppo of LI grindcore band The Communion. Black Harvest

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228
