What do I see in this reality?
Is this existence or just a memory?
Tangled threads of my own mind
-false remnants that became bind
Is this existence or just a memory?
What do I perceive in reality?
I re-trace the withered remnants of malign
No hint of the first flame to ease my mind
This spiraled structure, held strong by misguided eyes
Embodies the apprehensive nature that plagued my sight.
I’ve tread the path of failure
And I’ve climbed to such great heights.
This crown of cinder marks my thoughts as my volition
I won’t be tangled by these dreadful thoughts of blight.
Whatever weathers my conscious
Won’t be muddled by my misuse
Failure isn’t lacking value
Blatant victory made untrue
I’ll tread the path and claim my life.
Lost in the realm of reflection
I view the figments of what could be.
Pristine fibers soaked in brine
They slip through my fingers as I claim them mine
Why do I cling to the grime of faded embers?
Even now, I wish to stay.
There’s a warmth in staying lost in the past.
Harboring a hope for decayed ash.
These false and callous figments aren’t a part of reality,
Can I become unbind?
Yet with what I’ve done, what will I become?
Is this existence or just another memory?
Tangled threads of my own mind
False remnants that become unbind .
Departing this state of mind
If this is my existence, I’ll find meaning
False remnants unbind
Whether westward bound or windfall to hell
Departing this state of mine
Untying the threads that hold me back
False remnants unbind
I’ll accept the voyage in becoming x2
Pity that I could not find the deluxe edition with LoG's Laid to Rest. Nevertheless I wanted to add Elegy to my BC collection. It's unique as it is a delightful mix of symphony and deathcore. The vocals are just the perfect "5th element" that allows both styles to intertwine perfectly. Ben Duerr is the perfect vocalist for this role. The Elegy trilogy at the end is just the apotheose of death-gasm, it's a good trip down to memory lane as I've seen S.O.I. live last year! sachavonkarl74
Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis. Metallurgical Fire
Chicago deathcore outfit Into the Silo torch everything in sight on this searing new LP with riffs that will leave bruises. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
These California up-and-comers don't merely pay tribute to ’90s death metal; they make it their own by taking charge and letting it rip. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024
Before Ashen, I thought they were overrated. Deathcore bands seem to have a capacity to evolve quickly. I’ve seen quite a few bands in this genre grow exponentially from one album to the next, and Ashen is a particularly strong example. Metallurgical Fire
