I am justice, an embodiment of a god
One that is pure, polished and pristine
Hunted by those closest to me
In a world riddled with scum
Delete them all loyal servant
Immortal eyes revealing their secrets
carefully aligned
Destroying all evidence
As I have destroyed
My morality
Never my sanity
Before me lies the fate of unforgiven life
Made wretched from the filth of crime
My addiction to death confirmed
When I watch the life leave their eyes
My proud father convinced of my holiness
No guilt present in the wake of my purge
And on your deathbed, you’ll find peace knowing I’ve never killed
Is this the guilt that I deserve?
I am the light to show the good in us
I am justice and embodiment of a god
Undying, unbroken, untouched by mere humans
Not even the remorse will break my vengeance
Hunted by those already forgotten
In a world riddled with scum
The earth begs for life
A promise I have kept
Delete them all loyal servant
Immortal eyes revealing their secrets
Exactly as planned
Your fate is sealed
Before me lies the fate of unforgiven life
Made wretched from the filth of crime
My addiction to death confirmed
When I watch the life leave their eyes
My proud father convinced of my holiness
No guilt present in the wake of my purge
And on your deathbed, you’ll find peace knowing I’ve never killed
Is this the guilt that I deserve?

A Wrenching Nostalgia
03:10
|

|
Tendrils suffocate all living things
Invaded my insides
Below the surface knowledge awaits
Perhaps the single cosmic truth
Madness ensues
I long for the truth
This empty shell no longer of use
Take my mind, this sacrifice
Control me
My body taken left soulless
Yet wanders the land
Control me
Still counting days until I see the end of time
Just a ripple away
Still counting days until I see the end
The nostalgia I will reside
Broken still twisted yet longing
The sun brings me strength
The blood I’ve consumed is now rotting away
Inside, there is nothing but decay
Consumed by cosmic beasts
Welcome the truth
With the lies that bind me
Consume
Welcome the truth
Pieces of the person I left behind
Lingers within the sand
Scattered just like I once was
When mind and body become the land
Hesitate the end
I long for my death
This empty shell no longer of use
Take my mind, this sacrifice

Roots, Limbs and Sky
03:30

Broken, shattered, scattered throughout the land
I find myself gone
Body decomposing in the earth
My consciousness alive looks up to the sky
Broken, shattered, scattered throughout the land
My legs (my legs become)
The roots (slowly growing)
My arms (touch the sun with the) limbs of the trees UGH
The sky looks back longingly
I can feel the sins of humanity
I can feel everything
I am gone but here
Everything you feel permeates me
All the pain, all pleasure, all knowing
I’ve become a god of death and life
All the love all the fear all the screams I can hear
The wind must be my breath
Consciousness forever alive
I cannot escape my shell has died
Six feet deep my flesh (rots beneath)
Elemental binding
I’m blinded by the blackness of death
The vicious cycle of life in which we all take part
No choice we eat the force fed lies
Forever unknowing
The vicious mind of man
Cursed to this life of sin
Cursed to this life

Vile Sun

Undying longing awaits me
Empty eternal existence
A fate worse than death
I want now more than ever
Rays bring me rest
Rays bring me rest
My shadow speaks
Clinging to my dying breath
I need no strength or blood
But I need a gruesome death
The sun so vile
The sun so vile
I say light the fire
Let my heart turn to ash
I say light the fire
Let my heart be purged from pain
Your death brought me here
I cannot go on like this
Immortal and wrought with sin
Burdened with loss the grief burns within
I cannot go on
This vile sun
I thought my soul was gone…
Undying longing awaits me
Empty eternal existence such a selfish life I’ve lived, now take it away
Rays bring me rest
Rays bring me rest
All my memories mean nothing
May they perish with me
May your gods condemn the weak
All my memories mean nothing
May they perish with me
May your gods condemn the weak
Let the darkness take over me

Crown of Madness Port Coquitlam, British Columbia
Dissonant death metal duo from BC, Canada
If you like Crown of Madness, you may also like:
Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 15 fans who also own “Elemental Binding”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.

Channeling philosophical quandaries into cavernous death metal, the Australian trio turn modern power struggles into an aural advantage.

Shrines of Paralysis

New Zealand technical death outfit Ulcerate have often been praised for their innovative genre approach—but six albums into their discography, there's even greater strength in their consistency.
