I don’t want to be a man
I want to be held
In the cold embrace of Aamon
I don’t want to be a beast
I want to bathe
In the glorious waters of the Styx
Incubi and Succubi
Infested by Haagenti
Revenants
And a thousand burning Foraii
Men who fear demons
See them all around
Men who become demons
In hell will be crowned
Not sephiroths,
Creatures from a distant past
A myth, non-existent
Consuming anxiety
Other beings yet to be conceived
Their appearance long forgotten
As their shapeless dogma
Forbade all depiction
Lipless smiles and fiery piles
Of human flesh - a filthy mess
Empty vessels
Summoned in many shapes
Lurking a path ubiquitous
Forever nameless
Lipless smiles and fiery piles
Towering at ten feet
Revenants pull at your teeth
Slowly disassembled
Pulled from beneath
Every single emotion
Even ones left unspoken
Burning as if corrosive
Damning the moment you were chosen
Ominous constellation mirroring human fear
No sun to worship in the absence of light
All beliefs converge in abyssal conclusions
A horrendous void of innumerable forms
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
My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album.
Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band.
Love everything they produce. Obstacle of Affliction
First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed.
Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso
