Spewed into our world
Ephemeral spawn, undeterred
Instinct drives it to breed,
To plant its pulsing seed
Host caught then paralyzed
Entering through their pleading eyes
Proboscis reaches deep
Putting them into sleep
The intruder wins, gestation begins,
Immune system fails, nerves fire madly
Victim awakes, feverishly shakes
Pain then subsides, abhorrent thoughts emerge
[Chorus]
Parasitic lifeform breeds, taking over
Insidious alien tadpole, growing stronger
A thing from a world so alien, inscrutable
Breached the membrane between worlds
Urging the host to ceaselessly move and mingle
Spilling their seed, procreating, planting their spawn
Abominable mimicry, forced overhaul
Bringing forth mankind’s downfall
A gestalt mimic breed
Taking the place of the one they eat
Corruption spreads unseen
Breaking down mankind from within
Then they emerge, two worlds converge
Bodies erupt in a crimson shower
Shaping their meat, conversion complete
Fiends taking form, our time’s over now
Failed to predict this gruesome conflict
Incursion complete, we face extinction
Unceasing they breed, on dead flesh they feed
And when all is done they leave for another world
[Chorus]
Parasitic lifeform breeds, taking over
Insidious alien tadpole, growing stronger
A thing from a world so alien, inscrutable
Breached the membrane between worlds
Urging the host to ceaselessly move and mingle
Spilling their seed, procreating, planting their spawn
Abominable mimicry, forced overhaul
Bringing forth mankind’s downfall
Infected by the mimic seed
Overthrown by the malign breed
I really cant pick a favorite track, this whole album kicks so much ass with its intensity and ferocity from beginning to end. Definitely a new favorite artist. Really gives off Necrophobic vibes with the melodies and atmosphere. Andrés Salas
Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be. sachavonkarl74
