lyrics

(Consider your worldview through the eye of a noose)

Converging, as if through a lens.
Reality is all but subjective;
experience filtered through perception
and in the throes of a new despair: abjection

There are infinities
beyond imagining
found in fragments of a shattered psyche,
with prominence in theta waves;
miscommunicative neuronal pathways -
written in synaptic constellations.
A psychotic subingression made manifest:
borne into flesh

I've heard the funeral knell
I've felt torpor's languid spell
I've seen my colours greyed
I've been reduced to sequelae

Drown me submersed in pitch:
let me know the viscous weight.
Pervade and permeate my flesh,
my soul is lampblack stained.
Scathe me, unhem my stitch;
salve my existential ache.
Abrade and abnegate pretense:
I am become self-extirpation

Diverging, from a common point,
normality is all but perspective;
The great disjoint. Falsehood, misdirection,
and with the seeds of a new despair: conception

There are dark entities
of your imagining
long laid dormant like a malignancy
found in spontaneous gamma waves
and excess dopaminergic activity.
Written in synaptic constellations
A psychotic subingression made manifest:
borne into flesh.

"Every dream I've ever had,
every memory good or bad
in my mind I have remade
as over time they tend to fade
in greater detail than before
once the same and never more
but now my days are filled with gloom
for the ghost in every room"

Ψευδομένη
by Ὁπλίτης

Ἡ εἰκών was an impressive debut, but way too short! Luckily, Ψευδομένη arrives to satisfy the urge for more of what made its precedessor hit hard and fast: some atmospheric moments (don't be deterred as this is still brutal, dissonant and disgusting to the core) and at the same time, J.L. is exploring longer tracks - e.g. my personal favourite - and implementing some cavernous lows. If there's one thing we can all agree on, it's most likely that this man refuses to stand still. What a pace! David Fischer

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
