All I want is to run away
It’s hard to not look back
but this is impossible
they already catched me
It seems I’m losing the battle of life and death
It’s not the darkness I fear
It’s not the coldness I feel
It’s not the death I chose
Get out of my head
Get out of my life
But it becomes bigger and bigger
like a cold shadow swallowing the light
I’m afraid of what’s happening to me
I hope it is just a fucking dream
There are insects everywhere
Spawn this disease
They are parasites
destroy my world
Feeling the insects under my skin
controlling me and my dark thoughts
I can’t remember anything
I won’t live like this
I’m afraid of something
it takes me to my grave

Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson
