Beyond the mask of fearless eyes,
He dwells the land in search of contradiction.
He hunts the norm that sinks in absurd;
Conferring devastation to malediction.
Of crescent glance his sermons are,
The everwilling is his ministry;
A confession, not immediate redemption
Inescapable; He went to hunt his prey.
The inglorious inventors; the contradicted preachers;
Shamming walkers and outreached leaders;
They all will face the blade of truth and verity;
Slaying the integrity…
Defeating the core...
He’ll dig its fangs into the body
Of the everpleading mind;
The seal he put onto the mouth;
And tear it up so drastically insulting faith.
Drink the blood of Absurd;
Drink the water of Absurd;
Think the rots of Absurd;
Eat the tongues of filth;
Loose the knot of inexpedient precepts…
Drink the blood of Absurd;
Drink the water of Absurd;
Think the rots of Absurd;
Eat the tongues of filth;
Loose the knot of inexpedient precepts…
He sweeps away the litters of all their lost beliefs;
Dissecting up the monolith of understated lines to pieces;
He breads the ones that grovel in the mental swamp;
He thrusts the handsword of the call
And forwards it against the purport leechers.
He pulls the spine out of the unpromising existent backs.
He kills the suckers all that spread the disarrangement.
He sows the seed of verily forgotten.
Unmasker of the evil;
Unmasker of the air;
Unmasker of the water;
Unmasker of the loss.
Unmasker of the Absurd.

Powerful, plaintive expression of the fathomless sorrow of our suffering cetaceans and their depthless home, together with the indescribable loveliness of their distant blue-black realm. I feel as much interstellar space here as I do deep ocean, equally crushing and buoying. Dave Aftandilian

This band's been one of my favorite acts in modern death metal for a while now, and their debut album got me sold on these guys really quick. honeycombguy

one of the best death doom bands so far. great melodies with great atmospheres. mostly slow, heavy and doomy but sometimes there are these groovy double-bass drum moments wich are pretty fucking cool. if you like death doom and melodic atmospheric black metal, this is for you. Sælzer Bub
A blackened doom concept record about the very real problem of amphibian extinction, “Croak” is a punishing, essential listen. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 23, 2022

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
