lyrics
Distant, driftless, I hear the drone.
The permeation, the unfathomable.
A stillness, unobserved dismay.
A hopelessness draws near to take away.
Etiolated, unwanted, directionless, the discarded.
Through waves of endless senescence, the signs of change, I feel the toll of every breath I take and I rend.
Tear.
To rip through folds of matter and stare blankly upward into tapestries of fault, we’re muted and done.
I feel it crawling, the presence of impermanence.
Expiration.
To exhale a final calamity, the whisper of who we were ceases to be.
Ever closer, I hear the drone.
The permeation, the unfathomable.
A stillness, now observed and permanent.
It cannot be described, to wilt and wane.
To wilt and wane.
Bathe in agony.
Bathe in agony.
Bathe in agony.
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire
Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore Jacob Ballance
An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
