lyrics

Rid of Flesh

Caught in a cage that’s clear as reflection
Broken glass
Skin deep depth charge
Self-controlled no power of retention
Heaving mass
Peeled off with shards

No second chance to make first impression
Shattered cast
Push in pull hard
Torn from the meat and trash the depression
Bleeding blast
Clawed out from lard

Slowly now it’s rid of flesh
As its innards turn exposed
Dying rot until it’s dead
Slowly now it’s rid of flesh

Slopped in blood that’s slick with repulsion
Nerves inflamed
Screams locked inside
Slumped in a heap from excessive expulsion
Liquids drain
Shedding this hide

Pinned in a pose pristine presentation
Skin in skeins
Drown in riptide
Dead display waits for observation
Nothing feigned
In death feel pride

Slowly now it’s rid of flesh
As its innards turn exposed
Dying rot until it’s dead
Slowly now it’s rid of flesh

Heavy worship at the altar of Chuck Schuldiner (RIP) with a sprinkling of Obituary, Bolt Thrower, etc thrown in. Pretty damn good overall, but how they avoided copyright issues with some of these riffs and arrangements is genius or luck. Recommended. 269

The perfect mix of (old school) death thrash and (modern) slam death. With a great sense for groove and impressive amount of variation. I'll keep an eye on these guys - especially on their other profile where this is a little cheaper and new stuff is available. mourner
