DrakeZappa An interesting mix of sounds here, with parts of classic death metal and parts of modern tech death and djent, this album is a force to be reckoned with. Can't wait to here what these guys do next.

flightoficarus (Metal Trenches) Groove-ridden chugs with a dark, ominous atmosphere. Hints of everything from Meshuggah to Gojira, but with more death metal and deathcore focus in the vocals.

There's money to be made in reeking havoc When our leaders slaughter for personal gain Provoking the underdogs Until their fates are sealed Time to overthrow When it all boils over It's time to overthrow Every day this hate erupts inside of me It consumes my entire existence When it all boils over I’ll hold up my end For the promises i made Before my eyes turn black To cleanse this place from weakness I'm standing at the edge of my sanity Beneath me lies only destruction Our moral compass is non fucking existent Still exploit for personal gain We are reluctant to change We are reluctant to change I’ll hold up my end For the promises i made Before my eyes turn black To cleanse this place from weakness I'm standing at the edge of my sanity Beneath me lies only destruction Every day the hate erupts inside of me To the point were it consumes my entire existence Every day the hate erupts inside of me Every day the hate erupts inside of me To the point were it consumes my entire existence When it all boils over There is nowhere left for me to be I was destined to end up here Every day the hate erupts inside of me The hate erupts inside of me I’ll hold up my end For the promises i made Before my eyes turn black To cleanse this place from weakness I'm standing at the edge of my sanity Beneath me lies only destruction There's nowhere left for me to be I'm standing at the edge of my sanity My concious will be set free OBLITERATE ME

I’ve come to the conclusion That our path is set To lead us to our graves Dug for generations Our perception never changed The final price for our misconduct Of this world There’s no way to bring us back To the times where we thrived All we can do Is to erase it all Past decisions will bury us all These days we’re led by the weak With the social justice prophecy My allegiance is to overthrow Fight it hands on with knuckles and bones These cowards have been hiding in plain sight Ever since Our perception never changed Spawning the idiocracy That we live in today Mindless followers without a cause Blind faith got us here It will be the end of us all Our cowardice will bury us As we carry the weight of our fathers We'll serve our time in tombs These days we're led by the weak With the social justice prophecy My allegiance is to overthrow Fight it hands on with knuckles and bones These cowards have been Hiding in plain sight Ever since My allegiance is to overthrow Fight it hands on with knuckles and bones These cowards have been hiding in plain sight Ever since I’ll lead us to our graves Dug for generations The final price for our misconduct Of this world We are the violation In this turmoil We pay the final price for our misconduct As we carry the weight of our fathers We'll serve our time in tombs

I am on a destructive path I am on a destructive path I am on a destructive path My anger awakened by the last straw The final tragedy That pushed me over the edge In this deseased existence I rid this world of greed This vessel is infected All dead inside In this world where ignorance Gets you a fucking paycheck The hunger for abundance Knows no boundaries Within all shattered mirrors Reflects a broken man Worn down like cattle All dead inside In this world where ignorance Gets you a fucking paycheck The hunger for abundance Knows no boundaries When we are neck deep Into the downfall How can you Stand aside and watch By the end of this day All leeches be extinct You must be held accountable For this stillborn legacy Within all shattered mirrors Reflects a broken man Worn down like cattle A fractured spine leaves no resistance In this world where ignorance Gets you a fucking paycheck The hunger for abundance Knows no boundaries

We've reached a dead end Our final wish to putrify Humanity won't stand The test of time We've abandoned all that is real The most deceiving of them all This exhausted concept We are depleted There will be no resurgence We seek to be erased Buried by our loathsome lies We are the feeble species Liquid iron rains from dismal skies As i'm swallowed by flames Our obscure conception We've abandoned all that is real False visionaries The most deceiving of them all Humanity won't stand The test of time False visionaries Acting under a false god We are masters of deceit For we are imposters Artificial to our very core We are the feeble species Liquid iron rains from dismal skies As i'm swallowed by flames Our obscure conception Of the reality before us As i'm swallowed by flames The humanity won't stand The test of time As i'm swallowed by flames As i'm swallowed by flames

Omnipotent 04:26
A creature in exile All bridges burned The false messiah Dead on arrival So fragile and weak On a misguided quest Like the omnipotent god Of fucking everything That you claim to be Still so fragile and weak Everything's broken A hollow nest of lies Alone in this dystopia Set in reality For everything that you've built Originates from deceit You are the false messiah A parenthesis in time The hollow nest of lies On a misguided quest Left broken Mute and blinded Everything's broken A hollow nest of lies Alone in this dystopia Set in reality For everything that you've built Originates from deceit A creature in exile So fragile and weak Dead on arrival The false messiah Like the omnipotent god Of fucking everything That you claim to be I see through you

Forget not the actions of mine You're treading past my anger line Black blood overflow my veins I'll cut you To fill the void Carve you blind To set you free In this state of mind I'm a victim of false prosperity As detrimental as a human can be I am the violation I am your creation I'm drowning in a shallow grave For the greater good For the greater good My remorse counts for nothing I was always the enemy I'll cut you To fill the void To set you free Carve you blind You choose not to see You wore me down Repulsive beyond belief I rise to the challenge For a slate swept clean To reset this place Back to what it once was To set the record straight I rise to the challenge For the greater good For the greater good I'm drowning in a shallow grave For the greater good For the greater good My remorse counts for nothing I was always the enemy You'll wither into nothingness Gone and forgotten Dead as history The false prosperity Gone and forgotten I was always the enemy The enemy I am the violation

Man is born into an empty void Staring into the consuming black We are nothing A glitch in this malfunctioned system We are hollow Of no significance Yet we seek answers In this spiral Of self-contempt The way paved forward Is altered by past crimes Emptiness defines us Silent observers From a safe distance Caused by our insufficient composure To make the hard decisions As the world crumbles beneath us The greatest hardships Are caused by our very existence The most magnificent of flaws In this malfunctioned system The punishment will be unforgiving We are easily swept away Scorched of the surface Caused by our insufficient composure To make the hard decisions As the world crumbles beneath us The greatest hardships Are caused by our very existence Our history scoured Erradicated from this soil We are hollow Of no significance Yet we seek answers In this spiral Of self-contempt We are nothing A glitch in this malfunctioned system Reverse-engineer the planet To fulfill our needs Greed cuts deep Into our defining character At the very core There's only hunger In our current state of mind Raised with ill intent Nothingness Defines the perfect life

My Manifest 03:51
Every day is pitch black From disinformation abuse It’s hard to grasp The magnitude of your decline Sculpting my manifest I’m done with you and the self-posessed arrogant fuck you’ve become Betrayal is the very Foundation of this relation It’s hard to grasp The magnitude of your decline It’s hard to grasp The magnitude of your decline You're made of a thousand stitches Put together by a broken self We were destined to end here This was always the end game As we sink into the violent abyss Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest It’s hard to grasp The magnitude of your decline The stench of failure Never ceases Betrayal is the very Foundation of this relation In human flesh My obituary Written in your remains This was always the end game As we sink into the violent abyss Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest I'll use you to set an example Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest In your remains Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest Sculpting my manifest

These hateful times A reaction to the molds We’re shaped in Every injustice Thats been brought upon us Through the years Our ignorance bleeds through Countless acts of selfishness We've been shaped in every injustice Through the years I am the first one to break free To awaken and to see I’ve brought the truth into play A great following will gather For i am the nihilist For I am the nihilist Coming for the great execution Defiance is in my nature Leading towards inner war We've been shaped in every injustice Brought upon us through the years The key to human deprivation Fed with propaganda Is cut in stone I’ve brought the truth into play A great following will gather For I am the nihilist For I am the nihilist Coming for the great execution We are all suffering From this exposure We are the greatest liability The key to our deprivation Is cut in stone Defiance is in our nature Still we're led by sheep I’ve brought the truth into play A great following will gather I am the nihilist Nihilist Coming for the great execution We are the greatest liability As the world deteriorate I am the nihilist Nihilist Coming for the great execution

Extinct 04:27
I've caught a glimpse of whats to come A sinking world Suffocated by submissive views The deafening silence speaks volumes I'm heading towards The most dangerous path Always cold and broken I'm drifting backwards I'm far beyond saving In my quest to find solace Far from here In this turmoil I'm far beyond saving In this turmoil I drown Chasing a new perception Hunting ghosts I cannot comprehend the depth of this betrayal to myself A sinking world Suffocated by submissive views The deafening silence speaks volumes I'm heading towards The most dangerous path Always cold and broken In this decline I look at this nothingness Of what we've become A species in free fall Born in a hostile nest Raised in anger and greed We are the extinction A sinking world Suffocated by submissive views The deafening silence speaks volumes The most dangerous path Always cold and broken In this decline I withdraw below surface The last breath of a pointless life The end of all before me Open lungs, breathe in Liquid death As I drown
