ITS SEAMLESS GARMENT RENT.

The base of this band has been here for ten years, and finally we can present our full-length record.

We present the stream of Self, via our friend Jon of Invisible Oranges.

The record can now be pre-ordered through the following links:

LP - Burning World Records

CD- Consouling Sounds

TAPE - Tartarus Records

Each medium has its own artwork, designed by Richard Japenga

This is a culmination of years of work and countless people to thank both in and around our band, hence our immense pride to present you this. Listen, share, comment, please.

I held a banquet for the elevation of the self

We are proud to present our debut album ‘Self’ in October 2015.

The album focuses on the problem of self. Six tracks explore different ways to live, or fail to live, with self and world. They embody the struggles these paths and strategies create: blindness, suffering, a desire for release, the destruction of self and others as well as the turning towards -or away from- life.

Self as prison, self as a source of power, self as vessel for manipulation by outside forces, self as shield and as inner world, self as medium for Dionysian rapture, self as something to be overcome.

In the six songs that constitute ‘Self’, the rage of black metal is paired with a cathartic destruction as well as a contemplative, sometimes crawling melancholy. Instead of navel gazing or the worship of constructs, ‘Self’ is analysis forced. A cerebral celebration of liberation at all costs and a requiem for spheres rendered apart.

Tracklist:

1: Absence

To compete for such divinity

a phantasmagorical emanation

a man-made sphere of inclusion and exile

2: A Marriage of Flesh and Air

Ripping the fabric in strands tied to naught

to bear the raging worlds within

3: Averoas

A race conscious enough

to know it is vile,

intelligent enough to know

it is insignificant.

4: Contre le Monde, Contre la Vie

To horrors more gloriously vibrant

beyond vistas of fabrication

where wars of psyche and shadow

devour and deform and give birth

5: Geryon - See Extinguished the Sight of Everything but the Monster

Hells exposed and tamed

into hierarchies of fear.

6: Sacrifice - A Final Paroxysm

Opened, turned outward toward death
deranged and outraged
the seamless garment rent

‘Self’ is a collaborative effort, as Burning World Records (gatefold lp), Consouling Sounds (cd) and Tartarus Records (cassette) will each be releasing it on their preferred formats in October.The record has been recorded and mixed at Studio Independent Recordings and mastered by James Plotkin.

The artwork of ‘Self’ depicts ants, consumed by Ophiocordyceps. These parasitic fungi appropriate the brains of whichever host they infect, to manipulate and effectively destroy its self-regulating features. Through this annexation, the ants become empty shells of what they once were, governed by a destruction from within, imposed and irreconcilable.

A banquet for the elevation of the self

Recordings are done, our first full length, Self , will be released later this year.The album focuses on the problem of self, with each track exploring different ways to live or fail to live with self and world, and the struggles these paths and strategies create: the blindness, suffering, desire for release, for the destruction of self and others, and the turning toward or away from life.

Self as prison, self as a source of power, self as vessel for manipulation by outside forces, self as shield and as inner world, self as medium for Dionysian rapture, self as something to be overcome.
