Rising from the deepest darkness
the corner of the room
your inner demons enlist you
on a sleepless quest
paranoia dominates
seeing movements amongst the slate
diminishing sanity
soon devoid of all humanity
Dreams, they give me your life
Please just try to pray
sleep, will not save your soul
Free you from this plight
days extend into weeks
isolated from reality
schizophrenic weakness
nothing can redeem you
not even death
night becomes the everpresent state
witness darkness creeping all around
weeping, begging for escape
my only answer, put your family in the ground
Dreams, they give me your life
Please just try to pray
sleep, will not save your soul
Free you from this plight
Cleanse, you give me their life
Now this is my way
Bend to my total strength
Soon you will decay
Dreams, they give me your life
Please just try to pray
sleep, will not save your soul
Free you from this plight
Cleanse, you give me their life
Now this is my way
Bend to my total strength
Soon you will decay
Heed
Embrace me
you are my slave
dream evil
Fear me
you can't escape

i am the best caress
feel the warmth pounding in your chest
such a beautiful dark embrace
don't let this pleasure go to waste
reach the top
and seal your fate
it's not for naught
Climactic hate
praise this god
and seal their fate
curse them all
climactic hate
Bask in the iridescent intervention
propagate this infernal detestation
succumb to the irresistible opalescence
submit as it flows into your orifices of your soul
i am the touch of death
here for you to feed
victimize and molest
make them suffer and bleed
demons don't conform to you
make this kingdom yours, with haste
oppress the demonspawn
crush them with your hate
reach the top
and seal your fate
it's not for naught
Climactic hate
praise this god
and seal their fate
curse them all
climactic hate
Rage
fused with spite
you are saved
from light
reach the top
and seal your fate
it's not for naught
Climactic hate
praise this god
and seal their fate
curse them all
climactic hate
Rage
fused with spite
you are saved
from light
reach the top
and seal your fate
it's not for naught
Climactic hate
praise this god
and seal their fate
curse them all
climactic hate
Rage
fused with spite
you are saved
from light

Righteous Thorn
03:37

the sickness is rising
can't help but feel unclean
how do I save myself?
purge everything obscene
Summon the devil
He is your one true god
blessed be these incantations
You are my righteous thorn
Summon the devil
He is my one true god
accept these invocations
I am the righteous thorn
am I going insane?
has the world lost its faith
imprison the sinners and
prepare for judgment day
there's an everpresent plague
spreading sin, surrounding me
ceaseless
the only way to salvation
cast the stones and say
Summon the devil
He is your one true god
blessed be these incantations
You are my righteous thorn
Summon the devil
He is my one true god
accept these invocations
I am the righteous thorn
feeling the darkness
closing in on me
siphon life devoid of light
soul becoming waste
prayers unheard
they've abandoned me
I am always with my lord
claiming deliverance
it's clear this is punishment
please god help me do more
vision turning black
poison
grant me power
drink the ichor
Summon the devil
He is your one true god
blessed be these incantations
You are my righteous thorn
Summon the devil
He is my one true god
accept these invocations
I am the righteous thorn

Markkheim Cincinnati, Ohio
One-man outfit and a solely creative outlet to make something heavy, cathartic and empowering to make it through the day, and help others do the same.
Markkheim recommends:
The composition on this album is just stunning, well thought out, well executed and mixed to perfection! It's has compelling melodies throughout and is still frequently on my rotation.

One word: crushing. This release delivers on the heavy but also has that great groove and dirty sound that I love from this band!

Merci DΓ©hΓ for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients β pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this.
