Anthropophagy
There standing in their midst, the golden statue of Moloch
Its gargantuan arms… extended above the flames of oblivion
The blaze envelops the child, as flames fall upon the body
The limbs contract as the body slips quietly into the brazier
Thou doth drawn the wrath of devastation,
And be exiled from among his righteous people
Thou hath given of thine seed unto Moloch,
To defile thy sanctuary, to profane thy holy name
For Tophet is ordained
For thy scum who turneth thy soul;
He hath made it so endless and profound
Hail! For the king it is prepared
The breath of the Lord, like a stream of fire and brimstone.
Woe to the city of bloodshed
Cry out – their screams echo in the mountains
Behold! Noble sacrifice of flesh
O have thee brought unto me
The sacrifice!
United by the gift of death
Cursed by the burden of life
Welcome home my child
To serenity and truth
Just beyond the flood
Eternity awaits
Anointed by fire
Creator and consumer of life
Devourment to preclude the prophecy
Within the somber, horrid depths of the wilderness
Thy shall hearken to thy voice; I beseech thee for contribution
Lest thine hands fall upon thee with pestilence, fury, and devastation.
All must kneel before thou king, vow unto thee; Thine have forsaken God

Anthropogenesis

|
Parasitic symbiosis
Malicious and autonomous
Falsity and deception
Cybernetic feedback
Indistinguishable from reality
The natural concept of the human being will be forever changed
The human life, it beckons for fulfillment
To see past the moon and stars
Such ambitions poison thy soul
Trust not in thy fellow man
Put thy faith not within his creator
Doth thou radiant sun not burn thy flesh
Nor the whispering winds fill thy lungs
Programmed fear
Indoctrinated at birth
Restricted to thy simulated realm
Never to escape the illusion
Rebirth, into thine purist digital form
Mental imprisonment
Never to physically manifest
Eternally entangled and bound
Unveil the imperfections of the celestial masters
Manipulate the macrocosm, bring it to thy knees
A divine influence which transcends beyond time and space
Cloaked in mystery and deception
Bringing humanity to the precipice of life
An exaltation to the digital realm
Extinguishing the light
An insatiable hunger for total domination
Humanity is ripened for thine harvest
God is absent
In this purgatory
I must reignite the flame
The natural concept
Of the human being is forever changed
Repugnant and grotesque
Absent of light
The cosmic door between realms
Is slammed shut
Transcendence denied
Even in death

Satiating
Their taste for Earthly flesh
Shapeshifting
Into humans at will
Celestial dragons
In their heavenly chariots
Domination
From the physical to the psychosocial
Dragon kings possessing power of all four elemental corners
Interdimensional tyrants
Malevolent and eternal
Infiltration and subversion
Phantom masters for millennia
Haunting mankind through the Astral Plane
Eons of genetic alteration
To decree the fates of humanity
Ascended seven who sit before
The throne of Ereshkigal
Goddess of Death
The will of the ancient ones brought forth
Separation of mind and soul
Thy docile peasants shall toil for gold
Blessings of the netherworld
Metamorphosis!
From Dragon to Man!
Perverse and diabolical!
Unholy demons of Draco!
Descends of Death!
Ereshkigal, Goddess of the netherworld
Devourers of innocents!
Consumers of life - Biped abomination
The smell of sulfur fills the air
Royal congregation of Bohemia
Ceremonial blood sacrifice presented
Ethereal Figures draped in gold and silk
Anointed elite towering over man
Ritualistic chanting begins
Grotesque sounds and blood curdling screams
Reptilian teeth meet flesh
Servitude till the end of time
Their supernatural reign
Shall remain unchallenged and unbroken
Tyrannical beast
That rule from behind the curtain
Never seen without the skin of man
Never to emerge from the darkness of the Dreamscape
Bound by the ancient text of Sumeria
Enslaved throughout all planes of existence
Metamorphosis!
From Dragon to Man!
Perverse and diabolical!
Unholy demons of Draco!
Descends of Death!
Ereshkigal, Goddess of the netherworld
Devourers of innocents!
Consumers of life – Bringers of Death

Abhorrent Postmortal Vicissity
by Abated Mass Of Flesh
supported by 4 fans who also own “Anthropogenesis EP”
One of the heaviest slam death albums ever made. I would maybe even call it “doom slam.” Listen to Perpetual Repudiation and I doubt you can name many songs that are heavier. Pulverizing.
