lyrics

Loathsome, Frightful, Shameless, Pitiful.
Riding through the boneblack, comes a chaos that struggles with hatred collapsing inward.
With whispered fear and cinders wrath, forever dimming, desolate and heartless.
Forgotten passions extinguished immediate and inglorious into funeral pyres.
Uncrowned Kings sullen with gnashed teeth into clenched tenuous hands.
Where eyes wept sunken into the dull sky, all things that dwelled were consumed.
War for the moment was no more and left faithful to one thought of death.
With a piteous and perpetual moan, the meager crept in feeble breath.
And heroes were left with nothing, but to champion the fall of neglect.
Who’ll abide through the terror when all, but hope is lost?
Perhaps the damned and the soulless will hazard their fate when they’re crossed?

about

Downcaste Palatine, Illinois

Death-doomed Northern Illinois power trio. Thick riffs, thundering bass, powerful grooves, and guttural vocals create beguiling extreme metal for a pre-apocalyptic society.

Kevin Miller: Guitar, Vocals
Jon Graef: Guitar; bass - recorded

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke
