lyrics

Like a whisper in the rain
I went my solitary way
To sleep under neon stars
To taste the mountain air
To venture onward unremitting
And forget the world

The melody repeats
The notes blend together
To wash my havocked mind
But a dissonance remains

And the earth moved
And the red sky opened

And the smell of blood
The cold touch of metal
The words that you spoke
And the thousands that you could not
Will haunt me forever

A judgment in the eyes of dawn
And I cannot look away
Though I wish it more than anything

A whisper in the rain
A cry through the windswept streets
The eaves sigh with the weight
A storm comes

Grindcore ferocity meets metalcore groove meets poppy hook writing sensibilities meets electronic fuckery. Wonderful tunes from some wonderful gals. Anna Pest

Simply one of the best metal albums I have ever heard. Crushing, melancholic, triumphant, and unforgettable. Anna Pest

The Harvest Wombs
by Fallujah

One of the few technical death metal albums out there whose dizzying virtuosity is matched by its transcendental melodicism. A favourite of mine for many years, and likely for many more. Anna Pest

Death metal/deathcore hybridization done correct! All the atmospheric passages and samples feel right in place, with great sound. Instrumentation doesn't lack as well, but the vocals could've been a little less upfront. 8.5/10 liltito

Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore Jacob Ballance
