Bart Any band that takes some influence from Edge of Sanity for their melodic death metal is alright in my book. Solid album. Favorite track: A Terrible Pilgrimage to Seek the Nighted Throne.

Charlie Definitely one of, if not THE best album of 2022. Sacrilegion have acchived something pretty goddamn genius here, with warped riffs, flowing and clever structures and a highly distinct riff style. This feels like the spiritual sucessor to the band Anata and will definitely also appeal to fans of Dungeon Serpent and Intestine Baalism.

The night turning black From strangest aeons, unfold Incomprehension, the farthest domain Incessant cacophony Far master, now in our sight An ethereal dissonance of disintegrating lucidity The final abomination's kiss Stirs the usurper's idle breath Hierophant whispers, the drudging march Obsidian, phantasmic dreams At the edge of forgotten lore Chitinous rapture As falling epochs Rise nevermore The burning light of blackened stars Churning rage of endless horror The terrible pilgrimage to seek the nighted throne At the center of chaos Veiled in putrid cold Decay whispers eroding sanity and pungent eclipse Vilified, exasperate choir Manifested dread bleeds twisting cognition A marriage of jarring vexation Consummates the fevered dreams At the center of chaos, veiled in putrid cold A solemn breadth ushers in the callous reign
2.
Baptized in the maker's phlegm Denominations spreading plague of false God Blinded by a light, non-divine Alight the deeds of malignant creator With the Famine, the Pestilence, the War, Disease and Death! Ours is the fury and wrath of the goat The banished morning star, erase Elohim Puritanical dementia The blinding light Devoured by the Horns Enchaining Adonai The starving void Abandon the sham Kill the light Puritanical dementia Puritanical dementia Threefold nails impale the Liar's flesh A crown of thorns commemorate the distant thought Beneath the cloven hooves Voracious sodomizing of the now forgotten King
3.
Hunger rimes, possession swells In grandeur loss of sanity Where delusions dance, in grotesque accord Perspire with edging mimicry The downfall gives way to the hungering cold Sowing seeds of Eden's promise In passion and pain That drives us insane I don't belong here Beneath this twisted sky I don't belong here Where hope and freedom dies Pervasive tragedy Which breeds apprehension In passion and pain That drives us insane I don't belong here Beneath this twisted sky To dream in bleeding red Permeating apathy I don't belong here Beneath this tainted sky Abjection sinks its claws Within the fevered flesh I don't belong here I don't belong here I don't belong here Beneath this twisted sky To dream in bleeding red Permeating apathy I don't belong here Beneath this tainted sky Delirium suffocates Where ardor dies
4.
And so the eldritch sky cracks open Like a window to fathomless horrors As beating wings sweep all desires Under tantrums of psychotic sight The torment; the ever-breaking mind Incubating provision, carving out the eyes In the trenches of blighted conviction Amidst the songs that burn delight Epitomize the sweet decay From which nightmares crawl Encroaching thoughts behind emptied eyes Devils murmur insanity An eldritch sky blurs clarity A window disturbing coherence From which nightmares crawl Clawing from the portal's terminus The tendrils which extend To invert the sun, and blot out the stars Mutilate the eyes so that it may distort In the trenches of blighted conviction Amidst the songs that burn delight Epitomize the sweet decay From which nightmares crawl Encroaching thoughts behind emptied eyes Devils murmur insanity An eldritch sky blurs clarity A window disturbing coherence From which nightmares crawl
5.
Falling shrines collapse under darker aeons So envenom the last of prophecies to come Watch as they twist and bow Enshrined in malefic fervor Falling shrines collapse under darker aeons Malevolence for the gods of old Watch as they tremble Hearkening hate and throes of war Amalgam of spiteful souls Lost in the tornado of rage For graves in the making Splendour of dissolving empires Feel them distort under the tantrum of desire - seething hunger, ravenous bloodlust As one with the darkness - black sodomy surrounds their idols In a matrimony of coalescent sins - A testimony to the ancients So envenomed, enshrined So envenomed, enshrined So envenomed, enshrined So envenomed, enshrined
6.
Forever galling vultures disturbing hellish gravesites; the last of their days Battered to submission - as lest, they could forget My legacy Impaler! In the garden of malice I take my feast Among forests of spikes and rancid carcasses Where blood still flows like wine, and decay fills the air No light of day, nor prayer, may offer peace Grimace, sodom, baptized in blood Exalted tormentor, I am the dragon's son; tyrannical justice of No solace, torture, rending flesh "The blood is the life..." Brooding shadows reign atop their scorn, how sweet and dear the promise of demise
7.
Haunting whirlwind of fear An ancient curse of transfigured gyre Consuming sanity, and spreading hypnotic dread Intrusive thoughts bewildering paranoia Typhoons of disastrous plague; unforeseen calamity Labyrinthine patterns dress the mind with irregular fixation Where mortal shells distort, entranced by festering death Oneiric sight devoured by the immortal shapes Twisting appendages that coil aimlessly As if to mimic the tremors of atrocity Relinquished vigilance, surrender to demise Transfixed in spiral ambiguity The coiling black vortex unleashed There is no escape from animated atrophy Brought to the end, this fabled anathema Irregular spires stretch towards the sky The ancient ruins emit a mesmerizing light Entwined beneath its splendour, embraced by disarray Hidden for centuries, observing with hate Time stands still, yet moves ever forward The infinite spiral's curse
8.
Hollow eyes, turned to gloom A gaze into abysms, unknown As the twilight secedes from embittered ambit Lawless echoes - the hissing shadows that vomit spite Here, the corrosion sings of that which better not exhumed Morbid tales, and that of which the titans expel; evasive to the pale blue eyes Wrought in a frenzy of tumultuous revolution To swim through forbidden tides; garnered visions dressed in black Infectious are the secrets of Yomi's blight; the cackling of the jaded dead Submit to walk with them As twilight descends on febrile masses But as one with the carnage of severed dreams Look not to the skies above, but the decrepit earth As above, so below - the sky entombs, the earth consumes
9.
Abandon hope, all ye who enter here Neither grief, nor hallowed rest, await In chasms deep, on mountains high No refuge, nor solace - for the gasping dead The creaking shadows - that which dwell in silence Which both gods and mortals fear Suffocating fumes of nauseous fright Intoxicating dread Abandon hope, all who enter here Neither grief, nor hallowed rest Confined in the dreamless sleep The calm before the black The creaking shadows That which dwell in silence In restful haze In lucid pain Cessation of the forms Resumption of the end The morning light, the moaning wind The bleakest night, the blackest sins Of sanguine dreams, and palest wake Survived by none, the calm before the black
10.
All-consuming empyrean arc A witness to the beginning, and to the end Burning scars across forever, idyll drowns in mania Ever-growing, ever-fading - the dirge-like crawl Cranial hellscapes wrought in perplexed fractals Combusting neon showers bind eternity's eye Obsession floods like fuming starlight Across temporal depths, deceptive spectres waste away Mitigation swells to hide the face of God For its eyes are painted black, its lips dripping with sulphur Its voice grates as antimony, its fingers laced with phosphorus Deconstructing the mind's I, churning giants cypher xanthosis Dissolving mortality ruptured in celestial sway Solvent hierogamy, cosmic inertia detriments finite capacity For nothing may disturb its course Black are eternity's eyes, inscribed in astral fervor Deafening are God's cries... Alteration of chemistry, psychotic delusions Pumping veins with lead and carbon As God turns its back on longevity Burning scars across forever, idyll drowned in mania Noxious giants thrust fuming gold, assuring no hope for the truth
