Gather now at the point of no return
In the eye of damnation let's watch it all as it burns
Come to realize that you where all kindling for this fire
Viciously stoked by the winds of our own undoing
Milleniums of civilization will be pummeled to the ground
To plant the seeds that will never sprout to see the light of the sun
Raise your fists in obeisance as the horns of armageddon sounds
Come to peace with that there can't be good without evil
Shaped by the sculpting hands of doom
The omega is the alpha
Out of nothing and nothing to become
Beyond the reach of God!
Weep not my child soon you'll have aeons to cry
The dread is yet to come
And the salt of dried tears
Will stand as a monument for the crestfallen
A wall of water shall drown the shores of prosperity
Decimation of necessities for life to be sustained
Praise the dawn of extinction!
Never to return again!
Never to return again!
The flames of the book burning licks the sky
Religious texts, works of science
And words of wisdom they all burn alike
Raiding, looting, seizing power but to what end?
To draw lines in the sand that'll turn to glass anyway
And what good will words of a new Eden be when
We already shall have a paradise of our own making?
When the devourer at the center of the galaxy amasses
Matter to reach critical mass all of creation will cease to exist
Shaped by the sculpting hands of doom
The omega is the alpha
Hear the trumpets sound
As I sing to your demise!

Beast of Famine

An angel spoke of redemption
But was it truth or corruption?
The devil hides in plain sight
Amongst the desperate
Drought leads to failing crops
That nourishes thoughts of murder
Misplaced faith and mistrust
Is now the unmistaken ruler
Like a tumour alternates cellular structure
From mouth to mouth and ear to ear
The screams cuts through the silence
Divided fractions without direction
Creates confusion
Emotionaly detached, delusional and hateful
These words where not spoken by holy mouth
But out of the most impure
Heath now crawling swine this fruit was not meant for ye
Eat of thy herbs, eat of thy herbs that groweth in thy shadows
Follow the distant light, walk into the fog
Like flies towards a carcass driven by the ego
So morbid and beautiful in it's simplicity
The great downfall of humanity
Born out of pestilence refined in disdain
A crown made out of childrens bones is nailed upon it's head
From the underground the poision brews and seeps up through the cracks
Of a withering earth that once flourished it's now returning into an empty husk
Rejoice in all the glory
That rises from the dead
Let the vinegar that drips from the harlots reeking cunt
Quench your nefarious sinful thirst

Nihil
06:10
|
|
||
|
A mental trail through the exterior havoc
The line between nightmares and a lucid state is slowly erased
As if you didn't now that it would catch up
You've felt that breath down your neck for quite some time now
The deception formed in your own cerebral cortex
Is astonishing in itself
Dissoriented you stand at the crossroads
But the destination is still the same
You dwell on if you have done enough
When in reality you've accomplished nothing
Lost in the pride, a false self portrayal
Your moral highground won't gain you anything
The harder you look the deeper it goes
In these barren lands no shining ideals is to be found
To the same fate as the rest you are bound
You're just a chemical composition yearning to dissolve
A mass psychosis that spreads like wildfire and hits with surgical precision
Succumb to the inner looming depths; the black mire of a broken soul
At a moment the madness will materialize
As everything moves towards the Nihil
And what an honour it would be
To bask in the unlight of cosmic horrors
From high to low they relish in the shrieks of the demented
Through the splendidly cunning of a subconscious presence
When the veil is lifted the blessed becomes the accursed
Cause the heritage of death rests within us all

Redemptive Suicide

|

|
See the despicable inhabitants of this earth
For what they truly are
Ruled by their insatiable appetite
For feeding their egos
Megalomaniacs doing good
Just to appear philanthropic
But when faced with true hardships
They all break down and back away
The true nature of humanity
Is greed, narcissism and endless evil
All your fears for the future
Are not nearly as bad as it will become
Keep yours arms close at hand
Use them to do your part in this
There is a way to redemption for you
The truth is that you all will have to die
You should all perish by your own hands
Just put your head in an airtight container
Stop wasting air and space on your feeble existence
It's the one and only good thing you can do

Evighetens Bila

The demons of the modern world
Aren't named as in the Goetia
But categorized by disease
What once gave us life now only brings
Beautiful yet ruthless death
Wielded not by the divine
But by our own hand
Deep are the graves that we prepared
And catatonicly your God only observes
As you vanish from the face of the earth
And even the existence of your father
Will rust with the fading memory of you
Your skin bears the marks
Of self inflicted hardships
Your surroundings licks the wounds
Of your own delusions
Alone you shall remain
Drained and left in chaotic dismay and distorted thoughts
Do not heal, give in, become the architects
In the vast dimension of your own insanity
The code you lived by
Slowly it is scrambled
Torn in between love and hate
The one does not exclude the other
At a point you shall realize
That what you fear the most
Lies sleepless within yourself
Biding it's time
Waiting... Patiently waiting
Daylight shall not shine within you
Only darkness... Oh sweet relentless darkness!
Warmth shall never touch your soul again
Only the cold... The chilling cold of a tired heart
Men misströsta ej... Snart får du vila
Snart får du möta evighetens bila

Narconemesis
04:28
|
|

The Narconemesis dominates and controls
The essence of drug adherent minds
It wants to destroy every last bit of your soul
And decide every step you take on the way
Outside observers can never understand
Never any insight before it's too late
There is no choice left for you to take
The Narconemesis already did that for you
Seeded by pain and ignorance
It sits on both left and right shoulder
The acolyte of eternal torment is persuasive
Hiding in the darkness of your shadow
I'm the Narconemesis and I'm here for your soul
Broken and withered just as I like it
Trapped in a body that can't be healed
Papaver somniferum purgatory
Constantly wispering secrets into your ears
Until you believe it's your own beliefs
To fall of the wagon once again
Into a bottomless pit of despair
The dragon will rise from the dead
To consume that last bit of hope
Lacking the strength to climb up again
Papaver somniferum purgatory

The final sollution for mankind
Is mass murder and genocide
An unwanted encumbrance for all
Spreading like a virus on steroids
The Light-bringers malevolent seed
Planted long ago by a foresighted mind
Now ready for harvest and be put to use
Conjuring the cleansing inferno
Like a speck of dust in the lens of gumption
The worthless masses are unaware
Of their unwanted presence
In a world better off without them
Dead bodies lay everywhere
But we can put them to good use
As fuel for the infernal fires
Summoned to relieve this realm from you
I call the forces below
To strike down humanity
And erase every trace
Of the plague upon this earth
Let it behold the splendid might
Of the infernal fires
At work as it passes
Into oblivion never to return
Innocence lost, chaos and fear
Sheer wanton insanity
You were abandoned to madness
An eternity ago

Of God's Ruins
06:21
|
|

Something creeps through the hallway
The sound of clawing nails against the wall
Hooflike steps ticks like a pendulum on a clock
Closer it sweeps into your sanctum of sleep
A meere shadow can be seen
A pale figure cloaked in black
Fingers runs on naked skin
A cold breath against the left ear
Incoherrent whispers
Freezing the blood in your veins
In the darkest corners of life
In the shadows of your very soul
Could it be as simple that it's predetermined?
Is it a coded message to the fatuity?
Through the collective thoughts of a paranoid state
All reason seems to dilapidate
Is there a heartbeat in dying ambition?
Is there consensus in self-extermination?
When all hope is depleted
When fear feasts on the flourishing ignorance
Despair wields the merciless whip
Driving the steeds of internal turmoil
Like a parasitic worm, like an airborne virus
It spreads through twisted words
Isn't that halo of "good" corruption in itself?
In self-righteousness you dwell
God is not the answer
Let me be the cyanide of your salvation!
What will you believe?
What can you trust?
What will make you care?
What would be the reason for you to live?
This perfect storm
Comes from within
Could it be true that
"The Devil is composed out of God's ruins"

Devourer Sandviken, Sweden
Devourer is a Swedish black death metal band formed in 2002 by multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer John Falk.

If you like Devourer, you may also like:
supported by 11 fans who also own “Dawn of Extinction”
An eclectic but incredibly well-integrated blend of traditional death metal, melodeath, black metal, progressive, and even a bit of folk (with the added bonus of audible and tasty bass guitar). The album has a consistent, pulverizing momentum punctuated by the rare acoustic passage or catchy chorus/refrain. Overall an unbelievably mature first offering from an up-and-coming band to watch.

All Light Swallowed
by CRYPTS OF DESPAIR
supported by 10 fans who also own “Dawn of Extinction”
I wouldnt call it blackened death but it certainly has the bleak dark atmosphere akin to Akhlys or Watain while pummeling you with pure death metal and a touch of dissonance and doominess á la Morbid Angel..it really combines almost everything i love about metal and theres not a weak spot on here..their first album was good but this is stylistically much different and a vast improvement.
