"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
By serenity forsaken,
beside the edge of my most moribund season.
Beyond the gate, warpaths wedging
among thick menaces of distress.
A crumbling cliff behind,
as spectres of resignation
were pursuing me above.
I begun to drag myself along, choiceless,
towards crossroads leading
to any sort of inner clash.
confident I would have met serenity anew
at the vanishing of the smokes
of wars to come.
Weakened by countless attempts,
as many as the gashes on my will,
like an armor worn in those unbroken battles,
I found myself castaway
in one last tide of tears.
By fortitude forsaken
when adrift, then sunk in numbed senses.
Winter of throes ceaselessly storming over.
Pulled deeper down
the frozen waters of defeat;
those where the murk of thought dwells
those where aims come in their burial depths.
An assortment of fiends lurk
while inhabit that seabed,
gathered around tablefuls,
amid soulwrecks and mind shreds.
They bent me to feed on my own sanity.
With them, gnawing the scraps of my reason.
The apex of a dystopia:
devoured from within my own self;
a taint self, grown into a pasture for demons.
Me as shepard, but dormant in undying feelings
of sorrow and redemption.
By consciousness, in the end, forsaken
and misdirected along the overwhelming stream of time.
Days lost any meaning,
just slipping away
before my statuary apathy;
infusing me with more bitterness.
By an amalgam of non-sights,
I’m an internee in a mental cage.
No iron bars, just alloys of torment.
I waited for it to crumble down,
for a long time, in narcotic grief.
Since that last spiritual scourge,
I only dreamt about what lies beyond,
what keeps spuring us on from behind the scenes,
so we can emerge from those acts of our lives.
As stagnation ended its possession,
I worn my will again to fight those demons.
Victorious, I achieved my ego’s rebirth,
beholding an Innerscape renewed.
Formed in early 2016 by the drummer Michele Adami, the project was intended as an old school melodeath band, with some
modern influences. 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
An assembly line of crushing doom, blistering death-rock, and misery-laden black-metal, powered by a one-man torture machine. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 30, 2018
