Smoke

I'm not sure where to be, between heaven and I. Though moving slow, deep in woe. I don't know who I am, even though. Deep seeded in woe, moving so slow. Fright, so divine, holding so dear the fire upon her. Breathe, breathe in the smoke. Lungs fill with cancer and carcinogens. Suffering seems the only rule. Burn bright my conscious, like this burning fuel. Burn, but it hurts so good. Try to run, no, try to enjoy this fire.

The Judge

The Judge stands high. Cloaked in leather, totally bald. Alopecia. Totallus. No hair upon his head. Facial features focused and pure. Breaking down your faith. Hypocrite philosophy. Hide your children, for we found him stark fucking nude in the desert. Even in paradise he is bare. The truth of our shame is our undoing – as he rapes, as he fucks, as he kills our young. War is god and we are his servants. Kill and discriminate. Throwing a blind eye empowers. And he is dancing – dancing forever. Dancing, dancing, a great favorite the judge. Though it's his wickedness that is judged, we are not. The focal point of depravity. And it's his sins, not our sins, that are the reason for our wavering morals. Leading us downwards. Kill without analyzing color. Swaying back. Swaying forth.

I want. I need. You give. I take you over. I’ll fill. Your thirst. Drink me. I’ll keep you dry. Brilliance, my mask. It’s what you hold dear. I paint it white and blue so it appeals to you. Hold me in high esteem. I’ll hold you beneath the surface. Watch you drown as you ask me why. Want. Need. Give. Drink. I have no self control. Manipulation – satisfaction. Use you up. Break you down. Hate me Hate me. I swallowed you whole. You are pathetic next to me. What the fuck could I want from you? I swallowed you whole. Useless. Piece of shit. Waste of space. What the hell should I do with you? I’ll swallow you whole.

William Blake

A man of woe who shares the sorrows of all. Fails to find hope with the call of the harlot. Adheres to pitiful mindfulness, at his expense. Adheres to pitiful mindfulness, at his expense. Cruelty, shame, fear. Weapons of the father. Used as guidelines of judgement. The most common of human reaction. Sense filled excuses, ne’er-do-wellers. In negativity we rule divine. May we mistreat one another for all time. Expect forgiveness and you'll be free. Nothing is wrong when you hate yourself. When man no longer has the capacity for reason, he feels as though he has lost sight of god. Giving into his desires so that he may bury himself in his own pitiful guilt, his own self-loathing. To Hate Himself He Stays In Control. Man. Godless, Man.

Regression Schism

Inhale and hold. Keep the anger in check. Exhale a whisper, keep lying to yourself. It’s in the sun. It is clear to me now. It’s obvious now, how the scum, pitied yet held so high: control the world, shape the weak, abusing all of their power. The tiny amount of progress we’ve made has been wasted away. The oppressor truly holds the reigns, intellect and art cast in chains. Chains. Mankind is so far gone, the masses made it clear. Right now we’re on our own. Do not give into fear! Do not succumb to shame, do not attempt to blame. Stand up for yourself! Or live in your own hell. Hell. The future holds nothing (and) I’m ashamed of myself. We are choking on the bones (of the) rotted carcass of so much progress. Merely a blink in time. Soon we’ll all cry. It won’t end well.

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 10 fans who also own “Regressionism”
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.

One of the greatest black metal albums ever!

ON040 - Monoceros
