The Tourniquet Hemisphere EP

by Ecferus

supported by

Dustin This EP is an improvement over the already laudable Prehistory. Alp stretches his own boundaries in terms of tension, dissonance, and creating a narrative arc through songwriting. Snap this up, quickly.

1.	Volcataclysmic 05:37	lyrics
The magma is angry Its sunken eyes smoke Screams in lava Melted words lose form My rage becomes an island Where I live alone Only water surrounds me Until the next one explodes A dark cloud I cast Upon the skies of Earth Human famine resulting Rotten crops my sole feast My tectonic mind Is a place of suppression Molten esotericism They forever will fear My threat of eruption Mass extinction Exacting is my timing to blow I create a clean slate When I can’t take anymore Evacuate this place We must outrun or die Enshrined in ash forever We return to Earth Mountains laugh Valleys cheer No beast will ever walk This land again
2.	Proletarian Chains 06:15	lyrics
The gatekeepers squeeze Until all breathing cease Until the egg cracks whole And the yolk drips Others of the ilk clan No longer worthless Never has my body Been with greater purpose Storm the gates Trample the guards A flood of rushing human bodies Draw the second blood In the face of revolution The king becomes weak The vagrant becomes martyr Actors in a tragedy Scheming from your sovereign throne The mob lacerates your throat Privileged blood now falls to the ground Few stories are written That arrive at the truth Perception informed by deception Voices go mute Make a border With bodies built of armor Your weapons have no affect Your programming I reject Privileged blood now falls to the ground
3.	The Matter of Illusory Grey 11:26	lyrics
Deception of light Before void collapsed inversion Destruction of mind Expel corroded desire Perpetual corridor to nowhere Manifestations of hopeless self Locked thoughts White noise deafens Dreaming unraveling consciousness Sordid existence shines the last chapter Blurs the first to unreason Catastrophic irrelevance The indignance of my waking self Breathes the venom of serpent focus The wrath is my secret My mind a tourniquet taught A split dishonest Venn The middle never as it should read I am not the face before you The world is not your reflection of thoughts

Söngvar elds og óreiðu

supported by 25 fans who also own “The Tourniquet Hemisphere EP”

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

Litourgiya
by Batushka

supported by 22 fans who also own “The Tourniquet Hemisphere EP”

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime. Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques.

Exercises in futility

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
