lyrics

At one with the dead
Crying, screaming
Live with a severed head
Walking, breathing

Onto the baggage train
Don’t think, obey
Nothing to stand in its way
Rolling, onwards

For at the end of days
Bend on thy knees and pray
For the machine god made
Slaves of the godly race

Fall on they knees, proclaim
Thou art diseased, in shame
Humanity, cry thy name
Vovia nex

Human mind, opened wide
The time has come today
To wash thou clean of earthly sins
Dead matter, and decay

For every breath spent in vain
A dream becomes deceased
Utopia spins for aeons hence
Further away, it seems

For at the end of days
Bend on thy knees and pray
For the machine god made
Slaves of the godly race

Fall on they knees, proclaim
Thou art diseased, in shame
Humanity, cry thy name
Vovia nex

Release me
Save me
Embrace
Agony

It’s all the same, it’s all a game
A morbid funeral procession
Recall they name, digits and rows
Do you know who you are anymore?

Do you see under the broken skin?
Do you see the cogs that spin?
Then reap the harvest of flesh and blood
Lay your broken body upon the altar of madness

Release me
Save me
Embrace
Agony

Emptiness fills The Void
by Stortregn

supported by 4 fans who also own “Synthetic Society”

Swiss Melodic Black / Death Metal. I never wrote anything about this & given that I listen to it time & again, I really should! This is incredibly technical & amazingy good! I am having multiple eargasms & goosebumps for the entire duration of the album! Plus they have a new album coming out in a couple of months that I cannot wait for! A criminally underrated band... Stortregn rule! Highly recommended!!! bmurator

Oathbreaker
by Hoth

Not gonna lie, I don't usually go in for the super composed, melodic flavor of black metal. That said, I'm thoroughly enjoying this release. Gives kinda an Old Man's Child type vibe. Ghuughra

In Embers

An absolutely fantastic album. With a variety of ornamental instruments, as well as fantastic, powerful vocals. It all just sounds magical. It's an incredibly unique piece, approachable by even the less hardcore of melodeath fans wicked_john

by Sojourner

supported by 4 fans who also own “Synthetic Society”

International Epic / Atmospheric Black Metal. Get ready for an incredible emotional roller-coaster ride! Sojourner delivers in spades! All the various instruments used, the contrast of the voices: female, clean & non, create a truly awsome experience! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
