Scraping skin off my face
Eroding teeth, My limbs are weak
How much more can I take
Evil inside, controls my fate
The pressure rising, like a bomb with a long fuse
My soul detached, dope craved, it’s highly abused
The wicked forces, burned into my mind
No cure to find, just one more line
Nothing to offer, I kick out my chair
Hanging free, with no one to care
I played his games, shot dead with a loss
Not worthy, hang me upside down from this cross
The feelings make me fatigue
I can’t sleep, I can’t breathe
Contaminates my body, all I need
A simple exorcism sets me free
I drive myself insane
Irrational actions infiltrate my veins
Displeasure causes all my pain
My life now a possessed game
It’s hard to thrive with all the weight on my chest
Pushing harder, harder, fuck this, put myself to rest
The spirits there tearing down on my shoulders
Day by day, week by week, like ashes smolder
They taunt, they tease, serve me doses of misery
The fix I need, set me free, nights are dreary
They call for me, endlessly, how so eerie
My heart racing, rapidly, beating merely
Get the fuck out of my head
Sixty hours sleepless, hoisted by thread
This suffering so abhorrent
I can’t escape, gruesome pain, my death warrant
Trapped inside vicious forces tear my mind
A sickness so cold
Makes me go blind
My life capsized
I’m tied up with my own lies
I just can’t wait to fucking die
Suspense is greater every night calls my name
It’s no joke, don’t fuck around, this board, plays a vicious sick game
With my own eyes, I saw him squirm, dug in my skin, creep like a worm
My life changed then and there
So powerful, but my soul not spared
Trapped inside vicious forces tear my mind
A sickness so cold
Makes me go blind
My life capsized
I’m tied up with my own lies
I just can’t wait to fucking die
If it were that easy, I’d kick you out of my life
Just like an addict, satisfying, always staying in the fight
The addiction of authority is too intense for me
Now Mr. Demon, take my life, and just set my fucking soul free
Wretched, tragic, place
Horrendous stench, I can taste
Mental state hallucinating
Body pain excruciating
Visions obscured
Eternal life I endured
Locked in my tomb to stay
Shall never live another day
Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here. mourner
Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson
Chicago deathcore outfit Into the Silo torch everything in sight on this searing new LP with riffs that will leave bruises. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
