darkpillow A friend recommended that five piece from Berlin to me and dragged to one of their live shows. Damn, unbelievably good live performance for a band that I have never heard about before! The singer is sth out of this world, moving and singing like he is summoning some sort of an old and dark spirit or stuff like that, idk...it was amazing and seemed authentic to me. Thank you for that journey and see you next time!

As we face what we know. As we weigh what we hold. We repent. To Comprehend. We need to. Turn to her. Turn to each other.

BABEL 07:31
See the wonder turn real. The seed and the pattern of "why" can't bare us the cause. A palindrome, holds what may be, or be denied. A shape is seeking to form, to know why it does. Can one see what lies inside, with outward eyes? One seeking the core, may find we don't lead what we are. A voice that is able to heal, is speaking in tongues. The shape is taught to question thought, by those unlike. One seeking the core, may find that the self is not sole. Dazed is the mind. It acts as one and lives off its kind. For "I" as "You" as "We", in one all numbers meet. One seeking the cure, may find we can't free us (of all). One sought those following them. One built on why they are following them. And one fought those following them. And by a blind, mimicked "why", they all followed him. Claim no thought, it is framed by a myriad more. And the mind that has taught, carried signs of all. I am common, of the same core as everything is. I am common, from the same spark as everything is. I am common, of the same force as everything is. I am common, a singular hive-mind. Sense this might. What lasts, therefore can't be denied, are marks we leave with every deed. Doubt images painted by trust, in things we don't test but believe! Lords, Idols and Gods all must crumble! It's self-deceit. We find us in times of mass need, while claiming we found righteous ways. It's false belief. Conceiving the state of our being. Ever is haste in our stride. Ever is fate in our stride.

AGRESTES 07:23
Man has praised the manner. The bait defines the pall. A peer is deemed an animal. In Death, we all converge. Batons craved by dazed men. War derides the law. As our fear will leave us torn. Gorge. Man has faced the answer. The shadow claims our gods. Feed them one and all. Pride. See them march on. Might. Hear them summon. (Gorge.) The lord then ties the noose. (And) the hands that work for peace are fists to counterparts. Trust. Toil. (And) the words that sing the reaper, made holy by the poll. Trust. Why? Man can not fathom, on conditioned mind. Will we ever test it all? Claiming the manner, won't be the blight. We did manifest it all. Will the seers vow, as we maul ourselves, it's not what has to be, but all they knew would be?! Will the leaders vow, as we maul ourselves, it's not what has to be, but all they knew would be?! Will the people know, as they maul themselves, it's not what has to be, but what they chose to be?! The herd, insatiable. So may the feast go on. The lord, insuperable. So may the feast go on.
