Arise
The search for deeper meaning
Dark Hallucinations
Writing out the sacred words
Delusional Omnipotence
Sinful lives to blame
Isolated we are one
Chant the holy name
Serve the cause that you were called upon
The cries of evil, Arise
Guiding light misleading
Devoted everything
Now question what we came here for
Blinded by magnificence
Slowly poisoning
Cage and feed our open minds
We the family
Faithful souls that they have preyed upon
The cries of evil, Arise
Deceivingly, saves your soul
Keep swallowing the blades they preach
You’ll never be the same
You’ll pay the price for leaving
Living out the season, finding our way home.
Deceivingly, saves your soul
Keep swallowing the blades they preach
You’ll never be the same
You’ll pay the price for leaving
Living out the season, finding our way home.
Arise, Arise, Arise

Shadows
Secrets that never touch the tongue
Bury them deep and don’t stop moving
Fill the void
Fill the void
Sweetness taken too soon
Sullen, bitter and subdued
In the night
In the night
Peel away the layers of misery
We hide behind the shadows
We hide behind the shadows
Think I’ll stay here for a while
Wild relations burn on their own
Sad generation grows cold
All in time
All in time
Searching for the remedy
Indecision keeps me weak
The wisdom carries on
Sauntering into the clear
Peel away the layers of misery
We rise beyond the shadows
We rise beyond the shadows
We rise beyond the shadows
Think I’ll stay here for a while
Releasing the darkest nights of the soul
We no longer bleed
from the wounds that we hold
Discovered the answer was there all along

Better Days
So Cold
Played the games, in your head.
Strength, summoning
Drift away, while we can
Walk that empty road, a lonely man, living just to die.
As the veil thinned, light still seemed to shine through your bitter eyes.
Darkest star above, hold it over our heads until we run.
Done with this charade, carry us along to the better days.
Time will reveal, all we know
Truth exposed
Breathing again, say goodbye
To dark lies.
Battles in your mind were greater than the dreams that led the way.
Wouldn’t look within, always searching for someone to blame.
Darkest star above, hold it over our heads until we run.
Done with this charade, carry us along to the better days.
Unwavering, run away, so free
So Free
Run away, so free

Red Giant
There she stands in red
Massive destroyer
She’ll seek you out
Til you discover
All, you need, to know
Abiding
She’ll drape, you in
Her red fire
Oh, she serves to take you under
She will make you stronger
Saving all the knots, we tied together
Let’s smooth them out
And love forever
All, you need, to know
Abiding
She’ll drape, you in
Her red fire
Oh, she serves to take you under
She will make you stronger
Realize, realize
You’re not forsaken
Realize, realize
She’ll bring you to your knees

TOXIC ANNIHILATOR
Vicious, Betray
Put you in, your place
You lie and you cheat
Controlling and weak
You got what you wanted
And you grabbed for more
Now we’re
Annihilating
The toxicity
Annihilating
Your charm has no more power
Sinking, below
Ruthless, venom
Just out for yourself
A personal hell
Abusing your power
Breaking silence broke the spell
Annihilating
The toxicity
Annihilating
Your charm has no more power

NEFELIBATA
Floating, so freely in a fantasy
Wandering, don’t fit in this society
Living in the clouds
Don’t talk me down
Don’t need, a lot to satisfy me
Dreaming, manipulate reality
Living in the clouds
Don’t take me down
Living in the clouds
Don’t talk me down
**Cages in this rigid world
Consumption has a vicious hold
Perfection seeks a place we don’t belong
Find me in subtle realm
I’m dancing with a higher self
Where simple pleasures always pay in full
**In a rigid world, perfection seeking
A place we don’t belong.
In a subtle realm, creating breathing
A message in the clouds.
Tell them, I like it lonely
Like no one’s watching
With no more latches
Confining
In a silent spell
Creation breathing
A message in the clouds
Take me to the sky
Take me even higher
Take me to the sky
Take me even higher
Wondering, is anybody out there?
Musing, in sacred curiosity
Living in the clouds
Don’t talk me down
Living in the clouds
Don’t talk me down
Take me to the sky
Take me even higher
Take me to the sky
Take me even higher

TOMORROW’S SKY
Lost within a daze
Numb to maintain
Mindlessly hypnotized
Strengthen the pattern
Hollow illusion
Whispers change
Give what’s kept inside
Might not be with tomorrow’s sky
As we lie awake and listen
to the echoes of the shallow ones
Silhouettes of what we thought was lost
Forever
Life builds up our skin
Spirit awaits
Smiles don’t hide a thing
Won’t get this time again
Hollow illusion
Whispers change
Give what’s kept inside
Might not be with tomorrow’s sky
As we lie awake and listen
to the echoes of the shallow ones
Silhouettes of what we thought was lost
Forever
Elevation will expire

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

OMG, late to the party but this is some of the best occult infused doom stoner tackle I've ever heard. Reference points include Sabbath (obvs), especially with the Ozzy-esque vocals but there's also the melodiousness of early Heep mixing with a more contemporary occult rock sound. It starts in the 70's and makes it to the present day. The riffs are huge but it's their way with a hook that elevates this from your average doom/stoner fare. Very wonderful indeed!

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space.
