    - "old school melodeath with the right intentions and execution" - DeadRhetoric .com - 8.5/10

    - "a more than decent debut that makes you want more" - Powermetal .de - 8/10

    "The correct injection of more recent influences act as a glue for this debut EP, helping you discover its rich sound and identity. Riffs and solos are structured to release all the genre potential and variety mixed with rhythm and emotive changes as well. This is even expressed through deep and mostly introspective-oriented lyrics. The vocals follow a classic growl technique, with mid-pitched and harsh singing that spreads throughout the EP with an aggressive tone."

lyrics

Settled in a mire, in the sludge
drained from too many inventions:
there everyday shams flourish.
Everyday guiltiness shapes and molds
their ravaged conscience,
kept caged and now smothered.

Their falseness has got shrines
built to last and to command
the obsolete minds.
Bowed in prayers
for power and control,
to proudly become
devout servants of deceit,
dried out of all the empathy.

Forward to an age of subcracy,
through words that mislead the masses thoughts;
foreword to a dazed domain.
Forward to an age of nethercracy.

What else would you expect
from those cripple buriers of morality,
baptized in spiritual misery?
Devout servants of hypocrisy,
dried out of all the sympathy.

Forward to an age of subcracy,
through words that mislead the masses thoughts;
foreword to reigns of feints.
Forward to an age of nethercracy.

We won’t conform to this falsehood dominion.
We won’t lay blind nor be enfettered forever.
We won’t let their lies shine upon the fooled.

Individual coercion gained supremacy
on the strength of human weakness...

Shortly after the vocalist Jacopo Marinelli was involved, bringing strongly introspection-oriented lyrics and a classic 90s melodeath growl style. As Michele started the songwriting work, guitarists Gianluca Fraschini and Andrea Mantelli joined the band. ... more
