theearthaflame A bit late to the party, but this is insanely good, how is this not a cult classic?! 100% pure Brocas Helm worship with a hint of melodic black metal thrown in for good measure. I can’t believe this is not Bobbie Wright singing. Mind-blowing songwriting, nice fuzzy old school sound, interesting concept. What a band, honestly, where did this thing come from?! If you have the slightest interest in Brocas Helm, Manilla Road, or Slough Feg, you MUST listen to this. I can’t get enough of this. Wow. Favorite track: The Way of all Flesh Synthetic.

Mitchfynde An explosive epic metal release with a thrilling sci-fi theme! Imagine Manilla Road's Crystal Logic and Mystification albums glued together using nothing but cynicism and paranoia. Favorite track: Sees Things, Predicts Things.

Johannes Koenig I saw a review on YouTube for this record from Allgäu Doom ( German ) and I thought a have a look at bandcamp to see if it is available there. So it was.

The Way of all Flesh Synthetic Cybernetic organism, human machine systems Stalking amongst you, recording your every move Fusion of organic and synthetic matter Like you and I in every way, agents waiting for the day Ever watchful, ever aware Communication far beyond The blackness of a crystal sea, and a silver sun Awaiting for the message, send vengeance from the void The signal prophetic, the way of all flesh synthetic Light the beacon at Giza, prep the runways of Nazca Let the sun shine through Stonehenge, as the stars and the planets align Fear the wrath of an alien mind, with a body made of metal And an unknown concept of time Ever watchful, ever aware Communications far beyond The blackness of a crystal sea, and a silver sun The message is received, were coming from the void how'd you ever think you'd make it, the way of all flesh synthetic Cybernetic organism, human machine systems Stalking amongst you, recording your every move Fusion of organic and synthetic matter Like you and I in every way, agents waiting for the day

Sees Things, Predicts Things I'm not insane, although that's how it seems Their watching from afar, from a belt of stars The morning the sun ceases to shine The day doesn't break, the moon doesn't rise Frustrated with science, I turned to prophecy Hate the skeptic who exposes what will come to be The defining moments of your life With the blink of an eye, mere increment of time This has all happened before This will all happen again Must humanity be stained forever With a virus in our hearts Malice thrives on fear and terror Sit back and watch you tear yourselves apart Half remembered, fanatics have their dreams Fate is no crime, your destiny doesn't lie In invisible ink atop your brow was written fiend It doesn't take a wise man to see what I see Mesmerized, in trance you are to me Look right in front of you, don't be so naive The nerve you have to call me a liar This heart is broken, but my brain is on fire This has all happened before This will all happen again Must humanity be stained forever With a virus in our hearts Malice thrives on fear and terror Sit back and watch you tear yourselves apart

Eradication of Deviants In stasis we dwelt forever Or so it seemed Entombed in this amniotic fluid Our lives sustained Aeons of experimentation A chronology of pain Invented by jackals Humanity's insane We return to insinuate this forever impending catastrophe Completely incapable of being stopped Humanity was reborn infinite times before And drowned in fire an infinity more Out of control Spiralling madness Friend against friend Mother versus child Tear up the roots Leave no trace behind Make them understand Gods deliverance are lies We return to insinuate this forever impending catastrophe Completely incapable of being stopped Humanity was reborn infinite times before And drowned in fire an infinity more

Re-emerge to Breath The machine surrounds you and steals your mind Breaks part your form, and extracts your eyes For those of us who live to see such times Remember that the fish rots from the head Plan for the final moves like chess The faceless ones who live to oppress The verdict stands at last and will not rest Sentence them all to death Live in the gutter and rise to riot Set the air on fire Underlings, remember your lives are meant for suffering This is your finest hour Re-emerge to breath Mindflayer at work, programmer of mindz Into your subconscious, fooled by a simple guise Drowning in the very depths of your skull Of a soul lost long ago Raise a rampage in the center of the city Kill the oppressor, the ones with no pity Raise a banner drenched in alien blood Signal a message to rebel And send them to hell Live in the woods, attack and retreat Set the forest on fire Underlings, your lives were nothing Until this very moment in time This is your finest hour No more chances No more mistakes No more delusions No more control Live in the hills, defend from up high Smote the mountain in their ruin Underlings, danger draws near Time to choose between fight or flight This is your finest hour Re-emerge to breath

Carrying the Fire Psionic masterminds, understand mankind is mankind Nor good nor evil nor pure Nor black at heart, doomed from the start She carries a torch through the dark, Though struggles within, a new fire begins How could the bad overshadow the good in the end Take her to the tower Set her in bonds Last chance for this world is over The comet burns bright, the war ends tonight Take this scum out of my sight Suffer the last wrath of a hand that bites You put the wrong ones in charge Built cities on the graves of thousands You feared your own evolution and backwards you went The energy you harnessed you used for war Human experimentation, animal exploitation You stole people's lives, in the name of a false lie How did we ever think we'd make it, what could I have done, I am only one, Our minds never matured, how can anyone ever triumph in this chasm Of greed deception and jealousy, the way to succeed is not how it should be The ones who stuck out were hammered down, I guess now they are free Take her to the tower Set her in bonds Last chance for this world is over The comet burns bright, the war ends tonight Take this fucking scum out of my sight Suffer the last wrath of a hand that bites Carrying the fire, don't look down on us all The king rats were liars, the individual is so small What of our achievements Would it make any difference at all If the glorious outweighed the terrible No! Nothing surprises me these days Do not fear, your life will not pass as a great event Karma can be so unfair, was my life one so rare? Hear your earth scream aloud You are not wanted here It doesn't want people.

Xenocide 12:34
Xenocide Soulless, cadaverous, dead on the inside You lived your life to endlessly feed We've come back to take what's ours, what we gave you Our ideas, were twisted in your minds infection Devolved, fraudulent, centered around fear Take your last breath, shed your last tear You have now reached the point of no return All you wanted was to know Sandstorms raging over Giza Lightning atop Everest (doom mountain) Vortex from the floor of the Atlantic Wildfires burn the wilderness, they bleed This has all happened before This will all happen again Bow down before your idols, everyone plays a role unconscious to the fact, with no second chance Don't look, don't fear, this is your finest hour Not war, not control, this is your Xenocide Don't think, don't question, accept what must be done Not war, not control, this is your Xenocide Heaven has fallen, hell is frozen Morning passes by but brings no day All that exists is burnt for watch fires Humanity clings until there's nothing left to burn Lay down and die, others panic some just sit and watch their children fade animals rampant, dogs devour their masters breathe on fading embers before darkness reigns And as blood runs up to keep your heart Pounding with its final thoughts You at last witness the beauty Until your burning star expires and now in the final seconds, you wanted to know....now you know

Necropolis 03:27
Necropolis Through the jungle by the river Styx I've journed long and far this day Lurking shadows in the parapets Will never make me turn away Darkened city veiled in crimson mist Entombed in time without decay Never thought it would be like this It feels like I'm living inside a dream But my mind tells me I'm Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis Now I know what it's like to be Inside the city of the dead All I think of is breaking free >From all the spells chained to my head Sword and axe are my destiny I watch the stars turning blood red There is light yes I've got to believe For this feels like living inside a dream I know now that I am Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis I have seen your cities burning I have felt your daughters yearning For the peace before the tides of war I have witnessed funeral pyres Burning bright with man's desire I will fight the demon horde forever more The world is full of mysteries That men have never seen before Magik lives in all dynasties The light of love shines ever more In the crypt of Atlantean Kings I found what I was looking for Magik Trident of Volusia's Sea I know it's like living inside a dream But don't you ever get Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis Lost in Necropolis, lost in Necropolis
