Place of Chains

TimeOfRebirth Super solid record! Enjoy every minute of it. I love how much it is its own thing with influences here and there. Tech symphonic avant-garde metal if I was to explain it I guess. Who needs labels, this is Singularity! Favorite track: Sisyphean Cycle.

Monia Lisa When symphonic black metal meets technical death metal, the result is sumptuous. Even more when the both are performed with brio. Favorite track: Victory or Death.

Let the games begin Your legions are chosen for a tournament Worthy of the ages The astral arena beckons your names What is this proposition? Corruption of the order falls upon us We are purely soldiers of the empire Loyal to the blood of our own Amass power and reverence The essence of your prowess emerges Let there be no doubt in your heart Compete And claim your rights as warriors The nature of the order is fraudulent Now is our time to overthrow "We pledge to contend in the games" You have chosen well You will be gods! Labor Ipse Voluptas Victoria Aut Mors Victory or Death Assembled in regal brigades Massive battalions staking their claims Bearing flags within the walls of the cosmic colossus We revel in our disguise They know not of their demise We will strike down the sordid order Revolt is imminent Wrath on those that we abhor Rivals Rise up with might Enter the stage Commence this fight! Where the last word was spoken There will be no compromises When the force of duress Strangles the heart of imminent defenses Once you cross the line Nothing left but the will to fight And the fire alive in the minds Of those intent to remain free No masters, no slaves Heads will roll Cast out and beaten to the ground Defeated - stripped of our crown We will usurp - assume control Inferior regime Bow before the mighty ones Victory or Death

Is this really the fate for me? Floating towards the singularity Condemned for your malefaction Your fate is now sealed The pain you'll feel is but a fraction Of what you caused To countless planets and their inhabitants A cosmic purgatory Devoid of time awaits you Not even light can escape Your new prison cell Gravity will vitiate you As you enter the abyss Time ceases to exist But the pain is infinite Is this really the fate for me? Floating towards the singularity How can this be? No, this will not be the end of me Thrust back into existence Reunites my body and mind Where and when am I Am I dead or alive Suddenly I’m greeted by a new type of being, a new race Who welcome me and inhabit this place Peace is all that they know Never knowing hate or pain Allowed them to grow Allow me to enlighten you His reign of terror Spread accross the land like a plague Without a protector You all are doomed None of you will be saved Escape from purgatory Unleash my wrath upon you Not even light can escape my boundless hate I will eviscerate you Desecrate you Annihilate you Once I've devoured every soul Then, I'll consume your planet whole This burden will be all mine If I do nothing, my planet will surely die Awakening Of a power New to my kind The power to kill To save my kind Blood must be spilt The clash of gods On the battlefield The cycle continues The cycle continues As the abyss Consumes

Betrayers Neglectors of our progress We will see the face of true devotion Surveyors Have eyes for that which lies beyond A future Filled with endless possibility At once, we will rid ourselves Of these detriments These fools. They live in ignorance How can we achieve such a goal? The key is blood We must incite the ritual Celestial cosmic summoning Rain fire from the stars Leave only ash and scars To the proven gods Un-fathomed Let us bleed for a brighter future Our prayers Immolating cataclysm Destiny will hail us as the saviors Doomsayers We depart and escape the triumphant collision Proliferate supremacy New and abroad It's here: the twilight Our doom has arrived Certain death approaches A cruel twist of fate For we have summoned only self demise Our regret The consequences of our hate

Our time is now We've reached the surface Your dominion draws to an end Unaware of what lies beneath you It's too late now We are among you To those who cross us now You will surely fall Feast upon their flesh And assume them all Now our plan begins We are among you We will guide you To your own extinction Taking the form of those in power And spreading fear Of your fellow man They find themselves In the final hour Scraping to gather every defense they can No structure Disarray ensues Pandemonium No longer knowing what is true Where is their dream There is nothing they can do They will never suspect As we consume And assume Preying on the heedless The taste of their flesh and power As we grow our ranks This kingdom will become ours Assume control Upon this new-found throne Let us begin a new chapter As we feast on their bones As our battles grow dim We question our enemies defeat Wearing the skin of our foes Becoming that which we eat Pointing flesh-covered towards fingers towards one another "You are among them" An increased sense of paranoia Is this battle truly won? Premonitions foretold Our sole purpose has been compromised Our soldiers amidst a false civil war Ripping apart their own disguise To reveal our own demise No structure Disarray ensues Pandemonium No longer knowing what is true Where is their dream There is nothing they can do They will never suspect As we consume Preying on the heedless The taste of their flesh and power As we thin our ranks Was this kingdom ever truly hours? Assume control Upon this new-found throne Let us begin a new chapter As we feast on their bones

Desmoterion 07:07
Searing pangs of deplorable truth Dissolving all belief An unrelenting fate Tears through the dawn What deed have I done? Where have I gone wrong? No! I won't! Conceive this punishment What in this realm has possessed men to breed such suffering? Adhere the writing on the wall Imprisoned Afflicted by this place of chains Desmoterion Slaves They cry out Screaming constantly Pure evil engineered this damned monstrosity Terror threatening the horizon Cursed The nature of your life is death Lex Odium Breaking down the weaker ones Reducing with hate derision Thrown into misery By forces ensuring a vision of abuse And pull exploitation Bleeding the masses Securing subjugation Sweltering flames of insanity Lapping beneath my feet Enticed by flickering freedom Yet grounded in vile deceit This wretched truth Relinquish my state Release me, my fate Drudgery stripping all rights away The detained are subdued Heaving and writhing Crowds enchained, unable to move How have these beats given rise to such abhorrent standards of tyrants? This fortress of toil reels as madness turns to silence Now! Rise up! Hold dominion! Unbridled hatred thrives Resist! Command! Enact defiance! Contend the might of this prison Governed in chains Desmoterion

Far below Beneath black earth and snow and decay Residing under ice and rot, they seek Surface world never knows Eyes like fire, these Serpentine Hearts beat steady as the ancient ones Eternal, the universe seeks no dream "The all is one" Reigning, cascading down archaic iconography Reawaken Writhing Through temporal sands Reclaiming the day at each break Through chaos, order will rise Constantly shedding old skin to create new ways "The all is one" Unite our worlds Through cosmic planes our visions unfurl Boundless serpents beckon the fate of all matter Turning the wheel Contriving the skies Devouring it's own tail Serpentes, eternal Eyes like fire, these Serpentine Hearts beat steady as the ancient ones Eternal, the universe seeks no dream "The all is one" Reigning, cascading down archaic iconography Reawaken One is all The all is one And one is all

Their flesh. It calls. It beckons to me Mortal and fragile Unworthy of pain Engulfed by numbers Devoid of Sensation Release me. Release me. Release me! Why am I to be confined? Bring about cessation Just one taste of human embrace This winter must end All that I want is to feel Sanguine fluid Course Through my veins Come to me, sweet surrogate I'll bear this prison no longer Take skin off your bones to don as my own Your vessel is mine Come now there's no need to fear Dead receptors Plague me no more I'd rather rot away than be so empty anymore Machine reformed to man Your sacrifice was planned There's no escape. Accept your fate Dark space beyond death None will be the wiser They cannot comprehend My face. My blood. It's real. I feel the same as if I were a man Anguish so sublime I revel in this pain I'll never be the same And you could never stop me if you tried To feel Sanguine fluid Course Through my veins

As I wake in a cold and blackened cell I sense a darkness never felt before around me And I see what is me in a puddle at my feet I am scarred, malnourished and deformed A man he speaks, a voice across the cell Turn around and gaze behind you I turn towards the window and witness A regiment of martian creatures "We are the cosmic legion" I was sent here to make contact Now I gaze upon demise "Sent to end humanity" These creatures, as dead as this nefarious night The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh As we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made The souls of men are in our grasp For we are not afraid of death I catch my breath Upon the realization That my loyal crew is well beyond the living Then I see. I must flee and escape this agony I must not become this world I am thrown into a lab Impaled with needles Extracting my mortal essence The final element to this cosmic invasion: A cloak of human skin "We are the cosmic legion" I am withered and defeated Deprived of my quintessence "Sent to end humanity" This planet, now dead as this nefarious night I have lost the world But what of humanity? No. This cannot be I can see our lives And as one We will overcome "We are the cosmic legion" I was sent here to make contact Now I gaze upon demise "Sent to end humanity" My future, as dark as this nefarious night The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh For we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made The souls of men are in our grasp and we are not afraid I close my eyes and pray for an end to this nightmare And hope for this plague to be gone My time is coming to an end No longer breathe this poison air But by the end of this crusade I know our souls will live on
