Death-Trip Capitulation
Like rats in a cage, overcome by our rage
We cannot escape from this maze
We’re clouded by fear and cannot see clear
Because of this oppressive daze
Our thoughts have been spellbound
Emotions on lock-down
Tombstones in our eyes hasten our demise
Unwittingly, we’ve shackled ourselves
This sickness now prevails
Neurosis on mass scale
Under comprehensive surveillance gaze
We plunge headfirst into our final days
Towards death
Our minds in decline, towards death we’re inclined
In constant self-loathing we dwell
We’ve muted ourselves, all joy we’ve curtailed
There’s nothing left but our hollow shells
This festering indignation
Leads us to our damnation
We fall prey to mass stagnation
And death-trip capitulation
Death-Trip Capitulation

Discourse of the Disembodied
Communication disconnect
Brought upon by discontent
Encumbers mental faculties
Frontal lobe atrophied
Losing yourself
In a false realm
Under a spell
Discourse of disembodiment
Pervasive vapid emptiness
Overrides mental circuitries
Cerebral rot trajectory
Narcissistic ego overload
Personalities bought and sold
Living life mainly through a screen
Willful slaves to technopoly
Losing yourself
In a false realm
Under a spell
You're losing your face
Communication disconnect
Brought upon by discontent
Encumbers mental faculties
Frontal lobe atrophied
Narcissistic ego overload
Personalities bought and sold
Living life mainly through a screen
Willful slaves to technology

The Twilight of the Machines
We've all been duped by technology
As it drains us of our humanity
It delivers nothing more than emptiness
And insidious neurotic unhappiness
It divides and isolates
Unforgivingly, it desolates
When will we face the reality
That we are pawns of the megamachine?
This human experiment has reached its end
Yet we haven’t learned from our mistakes
We’re subject to a culture that constantly rends
Regardless of what is at stake
The twilight of the machines
Brings rise to Utopian dreams
The twilight of the machines
Cities like factories, built to contain
Teeming masses of dependent slaves
Bombarded by stressors that drive us insane
Domination is the name of the game
Turning the tide from our servitude
Is the only way to free ourselves
By tearing down machinations of war
We’ll find freedom and all it entails
The twilight of the machines
Bring rise to Utopian dreams
The twilight of the machines
Unenslavement by any means
The pervasive weight of urban blight
Has held us down too long
Our full potential will take flight
Curtailing all that’s wrong

Ungrieved Austin, Texas
"Civilization itself has proved a failure, and humanity ends up liquidating itself in absolute surrender to domination. How perfectly in tune with prevailing, completely defeated and cynical postmodern zeitgeist."
-John Zerzan

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise.

Blood On Your Hands

Been searching high and low for kickass crusty and dirty hardcore from fellow Wisconsinites for a long time, and finally, with this violent slab of a record, I can put it up there with some of my all time favorites. Worth every cent.
