lyrics
Perennials torn from soils of birth life...
the base stems writhe in thirst-
longing for a path to trace.
In still contemplation, bereavement unveils
a sense; transcending my current body and form.
The turning wheel of life
only renews.
What once was shall
never be again.
Somewhere in a vast ocean of thinning smoke,
memories can hear my yearning in cosmic winds.
Engravings wither with the bodies they're carved in-
all that we remember is having gripped the stone.
Lusting for regression; a strange desire for a suicidal rebirth
backwards in time.
What home could conjure this? The only thing I have inhaled is the stale air of a cold prison.
The skin of our cruel vessel sheds infinitely.
The being inside it is left to sulk and rot.
Should I ascend and return to whence I came,
I would have just begun to search for what was lost.
The turning wheel of life
only renews.
What once was shall never be again.
Somewhere in this vast ocean of thinning smoke,
memories can hear my yearning in cosmic winds.
Engravings wither with the bodies I carved in-
all that I remember is having gripped the stone.
When you enter the blue hell, you are frozen, unable to get out. That ability that this album has to catch you and not let you go is what I applaud the most about this band. One more life experience, but an ordinary experience, an atmospheric and depressing journey, difficult to forget. Frank Román
“Iris” is one of those albums that pulls out all the stops and when it isn’t blurring the lines of multiple genres, it’s setting down stalwart ramparts firmly within one or another. An album that plays out like The Heroes Journey- an arc of inner turmoil, exterior conflict, a test of mettle on all fronts as you make your way in the world toward your one true destiny and stand at the gates with an open heart and all of the world at your back. justanoldgod
An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2021
Wow this album has been in my collection for a while and Im just getting around to giving it a proper listen. This is really good, can’t believe that I passed over this for so long. Bret
