Beyond horizons
Souls in dismay
There’s a red moon rising
Staining the golden grains
You lost those glistening eyes to the battle cries
Clenching on to what remains of lost faith
Are the answers found in armageddon
Truly worth the lives of thousands?
Revolts turn to revolution
Contingency in the dogma of our fate
Eternal desire
For solace in the home
A reign of execution
Burns the bridges to the chords
Disillusioned we embrace
Prophetic raze
Gorge of disparagement
Wailing seizures draped in linen
The white horse rises over landscape
Of the burgundy sun enraged
Repose
Left to falter
Promise of light
In a new day
Crumble
Under evolution’s reign
Disillusioned we embrace
Prophetic raze
In light where we fall
Contempt in those above
Shadows grace these walls
Mired in constraints of the world
In light where we fall
Contempt in those above
Shadows grace these walls
Burns the bridges to the chords
The beacon is shining
Signaling the nightmare foretold
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire
This one really goes deep. Tremendously heavy and bleak, yet crushingly groovy as well. You can easily see these guys destroying any venue they'd hit live with this. The heavy hitting slow to mid-tempo tunes are sort of tranceinducing. It's very easy to listen to it multiple times in a row or even get lost in it totally. mourner
A ferocious display of blackened stoner-doom from Moscow's Moanhand, who offsets moments of bleak ugliness with clean, haunting melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 23, 2021
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
