flightoficarus (Metal Trenches) I hear shades of Sikth, Periphery, and WRVTH up and down the foundation of this album. Things took a surprising turn on "Pull the Pin" with the sudden detour into smooth jazz. I also dig "Loophole," smashing djenty chord progressions against a most excellent sax solo; and the use of marimba(?) on "Eat the Hand that Feeds. These guys are just getting started. Full review: metaltrenches.com/reviews/is-that-a-marimba-363 Favorite track: Eat The Hand That Feeds.

Demagogue 03:14
I am corruption I am the bad taste in your mouth The corruption of the best things Gives rise to the worst There is no compromise when it comes to this sickness You have to fight it We have to fight it Let me feed you power Shove it down your throat I grow on you like cancer And move your fucking world There is no empathy In self centered minds I’m attached to your soul In control like a goddamn parasite I am the downfall of men Your self created apocalypse You will encounter me In the soul of a megalomaniac There’s this parasite in everyone Now reach inside and come undone Feed on the weak of the world Give me power for me to abuse And I will make sure that I will show my true nature But you don’t have to be afraid that I bring hell ‘Cause you already live in one Just open your eyes again I am the downfall of men Your self created apocalypse You will encounter me In the soul of a megalomaniac I am the urge that motivates And I won’t go away I’m in your soul like a goddamn parasite

Pull The Pin 05:13
Paint a perfect picture with all the colours of this imperfect situation and there is not enough to fully grasp this boiling rage from the inside Go pull the pin, let the bombs go off I'll make you suffer Go ignite the fuse, let the fire burn I'll turn your insides inside out Watch me burning down all the bridges you build to make peace For I will make total war By now you should get what it's all about this is no fucking invitation and I can't live without. I'll make a change I'll turn it all back I'll make a change I'll turn it all back I'll turn it all black to ashes this time I will pull the pin what can I do if I have nothing left to win I loose control from everything to nothing at all I can tell you this This time I won't tell I'm a ticking timebomb ready to blow everything to hell Goodbye, It's all over now No there is no turning back Lets paint the walls all red(x2)

This is a warning for everyone stay in your safezone Beware the black sheep It is a wolf! It is a creep! in sheep's clothing so stay in your safezone Go run and hide let sheer ignorance be your guiding light We are born as equals The same world, the same air the same rights and goals Yet raised as enemies You're different? You're not me? So you must be wrong! Refocus your aim; Not everyone is born conform standards set in your uniform world But ignorance still guides you where you're lost in the unknown Good luck finding your scapegoat, you fucking coward Everything about us differ None of us is the same This difference = our beauty I say : Hell to a world full with the likes of you! Getting sick of people judging others out of the inability to understand not everyone is like you! Getting sick of people judging others out of the inability to understand not everyone is like you! Not everyone will be like you! So fuck the likes of you! Tear your skin of underneath you're all flesh and bone This maximal hatred goes with minimal reason

Loophole 04:46
Yet again here I stand. My back against the wall and I pretend that it is all good, no cloud in the sky. Everything is dark and I cant get why. I try to hold on tight but support slips away when I look ahead with this dead man's gaze trapped in this moment stripped from a way out I can hope what I want but who will hear me now? I am so done with this You can't fire me, I quit! This prolonged torment! I am no fucking masochist! O hell fucking no! sometimes you just gotta have hope for the hope of having hope someday You just have to wait for that moment when there is that loophole to jump into I've had my darkest moments. I've had my brightest days. I've had all the hope, I can hope for but nothing changed anyway. My world gets smaller and smaller, No room to breath, I'm choking on the illusion of opportunity! I'm choking out! No hope for the hopeless But illusions for the blind No chances for the willing No goals to stand behind No hope for the hopeless But illusions for the blind No reason to keep fighting for a world I'll leave behind I AM CHOKING OUT

This urge wich drives us to a climax. The point of no return, Where all things are used up and gone We are born with a hole in our soul wich we can't stop to fill with everything and all This desire for things we don't need makes us utter useless and a destructive imbreed That is born with a hole in the soul wich it can't stop to fill with everything and all We are born incomplete with the curse to be broken(2x) Everything seems to keep falling apart around you, even when you have it all, you keep wanting more. Own the world, sit up high on a golden throne, but even than you will be so empty at your core! It all comes down to nothing Everythings seems bottomless, with this undying appetite. We try hard to fill this hole by consuming the whole world All things have an end. All things will run down Through our defining greed, we're eating the hand that feeds! We are born incomplete with the curse to dwell the empty chambers of our souls straight down to hell into our souls straight down to hell The world does not belong to man we are nothing more than an accident yet we think about ourselfs as gods with no consequenses to fear Let's keep going untill there is nothing left here Please reach out to feed me and I will bite your fucking hand off! That is born with a hole in the soul wich it can't stop to fill with the whole fucking world

Be for truth, no matter who tells it. Be for justice, against or for yourself! With these laws we get restricted and disconnected from ourselves. So fuck your justice and your laws I will make my own path to follow. If you don't walk it with me today maybe you will tomorrow? Walk with me into fire let our feet burn. Let's get what we desire, Out of the way now it is our turn. Kill the whistleblower for he plays a false tune. You won't recognise truth even right in front of you And it stares back,in your face whole your life long you're such a pitty disgrace Be for truth, no matter who tells it. Be for justice, against or for yourself! With these laws we get restricted and disconnected from ourselves. So fuck your justice and your laws I will make my own path to follow. If you don't walk it with me today maybe you will tomorrow? I got this fire in me wich burns so bright And I will enlight this darkness in my mind If dying men speak true you better be dead we better be dead I got this fire in me wich burns so bright And I will enlight this darkness in my mind

-mera 07:20
The world always ends for someone each day. Time please go on and take this pain away. When time is up our world is gone. We had our way for far to long. The world always ends for someone each day. Time please go on and take this pain away. If there's an end, let it be loud. Let it be bloody and get it all out! Go tell the world we are ephemeral! We are the messengers and we scream load but the echo fade while we hide in the shade Go tell the world we are ephemeral! We don't learn We don't caire We don't stop We don't dare to be more than we are before we realise we where already living in paradise But It happens all over again where has reason gone to? We're ephemeral, but we seem to last So repent right now come on, come on! You have what I want and I will take it No need to reason, 'cause I'll break it If it means to destroy the world I don't caire; here I am! I am coming for you! (Ephemera!) You don't believe as I do so fuck you! I do not look ahead but always back! If it means to destroy the world I don't caire; here I am! I am coming for you! (zombified cunts) We are the downfall so unexpectable? We are the downfall so unexcapable It will never be a good time a good time to release and to part with your old ways It happens all over again where has reason gone to? We're ephemeral, but we seem to last and we are just fuck ups making the same mistakes to fast. You don't deserve the world you live in a sea of bodies all drowning in sin If it means to destroy the world I don't caire; here I am! I am coming for you!
