lyrics
Intro:
Verse I pt. a: Through The Cosmos
Life’s expanding
Keep consuming
Mind exploiting
Like a plague
Man’s Accomplished
Life extension
Bio hacking
Cyro genic
Mind expanding
Hording the Lifeform
Digital
Synthesizing
Engineering
Mitochondria
Ascending to God Hood
We’ve created
Exo Planets
The DNA
Of life itself
Verse I pt. b: Every day that man’s expanding, We inch ever closer
Realizing the full potential, We’ve created
Conquering the solar system, Leaving nothing unturned
Seeding every complex nation, Bend them to our will
Becoming the Ancients, Of our own reality
Collapsing the fabric, Of cosmic infinity
Unleashing the madness, The infinity of self
Unfathomable abomination, Lambs to the cosmic slaughter
Pre Chorus: Fall to your knees, beg to the sky
For there’s nothing but lies
Underneath the barren, silent veil
You’re the first life
Solo Cole/Dan:
Chorus I: As your final day arrives, Death will find you
As your final day arrives, Death will find you
Fire burning in your eyes, Illuminate the way
Determination fills your mind, Just survive the day
Assembled by the ancient ones, Catastrophic hate
As your final day arrives, Death will find you
Verse II pt. a: Postponing Oblivion
Conquering
Dominating
Exterminating
Roll the Dice
Exposing the Bitter Truth
The vastness
The loneliness
The emptiness
Existential Dread
Blurring the Boundary
Liberating
Eternity
Beneath our feet
We are god
Engineering the End
In organic
Sentient
Replicating
Carbon Nano goo
Verse II pt. b: Every day that man’s expanding, We inch ever closer
Realizing the full potential, We’ve created
Conquering the solar system, Leaving nothing unturned
Seeding every complex nation, Bend them to our will
Becoming the Ancients, Of our own reality
Collapsing the fabric, Of cosmic infinity
Unleashing the madness, The infinity of self
Unfathomable abomination, Lambs to the cosmic slaughter
Chorus II: As your final day arrives, Death will find you
As your final day arrives, Death will find you
Fire burning in your eyes, Illuminate the way
Determination fills your mind, Just survive the day
Assembled by the ancient ones, Catastrophic hate
As your final day arrives, Death will find you
Bridge/Re-Intro:
Chorus III: As your final day arrives, Death will find you
As your final day arrives, Death will find you
Fire burning in your eyes, Illuminate the way
Determination fills your mind, Just survive the day
Assembled by the ancient ones, Catastrophic hate
As your final day arrives, Death will find you

Old school Death Metal in its purest form. Thanks to Transcending Obscurity for this little gem. Found it on Bandcamp Friday. The clean singing part in „Rot of Ages“ is epic - i did not expecting this. Highly recommended for everyone who loves old school Death Metal!

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
