Dire circumstances, to survive
Your backs to the wall, eyes open wide
Light, turns to darkness, a fiery sky
Damning you to hell, before your time
The bets are down… begin the reckoning
Your conscience yells … revenge is beckoning
The season of reason…is growing old
Clutching ordnance…will you be told?
The fruit, once prosperous, turned to rotten wine
Disobedience, now it’s time
The bets are down… begin the reckoning
Your conscience yells … revenge is beckoning
Mind control’s the process, forced upon us
A crippling mental curfew, corrupting virtue
Mind control’s the sickness, assaulting purpose
Spreading through the classes, the brooding masses

Seattle’s Laden captures the storm and stress of the greatest, grimmest post-metal, crafting songs from 20-megaton riffs. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 29, 2022
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024
