lyrics

Since Napoleonic wars raged in brutality.
Sweden was cursed and born in neutrality.
Guilt of desire and the corruption of fates.
Migrate to the north where life captivates.
Raised with perfection and the pressure of war.
Encumbered with will and the fate of a whore.
Crush the almighty to silence the pain.
With turrets of steel and bullets like rain.
Debris of the fallen disfigure the shore.
Along the crest of the waves that bleed evermore.
Fearsome mortality adrift in its flight.
In the mists of the dawn glows the rapture of night.
Sky torn asunder with ammunitions assault.
Like the cattle to slaughter and their forehead to bolt.
Adorned in victory and the medals to praise.
Yet a pale horse rides where the honor displays.
What is the will when the stigma is death?
When you temper the life, but you Suffer The Breath.

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

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
