My own blood...oathbreaker. Ambitions can only take you so far. I fear for his corrupted soul. Yet we still press on. Stay on the trail. Track down our prey. We take to the wild. Soon we will slay….soon we will slay. Our trophy appears! My blade cries out for blood. Listen to it’s song! A life for my rightful place! Trying to break the circle. Foolishness and arrogance. Fracas with the mighty beast! The hunt has begun! Remnants of victory. A bond breaks again. Frivolous child. Recognition ...will come soon. Foolish exploits... your downfall. The death struggle ends. A tusk for an arm! Trying to break the circle. Foolishness and arrogance. Fracas with the mighty beast! The hunt has begun! Ahhhh!

A horrific scene. No warmth remains. Becoming the past. My soul shatters. Peace has been found. Mangled body. Potential undone. Despondent rivers flow. Sacred bonds come undone. Devastation sinking in. A fate worse than death. Inconceivable. Blacken, my heart! Vengeance, my call! A horrific scene. No warmth remains. Becoming the past. My soul shatters. Peace has... been found. Mangled body. Potential undone. Grief like no other. Torn and mutilated. Emptiness inside. Fear replaced by anger. Sweet habit of existence. Souring in time. Hollowed existence. Erosion of will. Depleted. Left to Comprehend. Release me from this pain! Sacred land trespass. How could I let this be? Unjust slaughter. For what? For Sport! I will not accept this! I must be released from this nightmare! Sacred land trespass. How could I let this be? Have I failed him? This blame must be diverted. I will not accept this! I must be released from this nightmare! Grief like no other. Torn and mutilated. Emptiness inside. Fear replaced by anger. Sweet habit of existence. Souring in time. Sacred land trespass. How could I let this be? Unjust slaughter. For what? For Sport! I will not accept this! I must be released from this nightmare! Grief like no other. Torn and mutilated. Emptiness inside. Fear replaced by anger. Sweet habit of existence. Souring in time. These worldly conditions grind my brittle soul. Erosion bring strength. I know what must be done! I know... Blurred vision soon turns red. Cruel intentions sinking in. Red rivers will flow. It is just. The folly of man ...has taken my son!

A dark shroud consuming… fears fully realized. Have I been conquered? Bitter words churn my spirit. I am Oblivion, Internal Death, Empty Banners. Impending sensory death. Terror and Hubris. I will be the Judge. Why did you let me go? Ripped flesh and soul...bleeding. Perpetual Angst. Delirium. The truth is clear. Take hold of my hand. Together we bring blood and fire.

We are in this together. Treaty of slaughter. Our truth is clear. Misery seeking machine. Death awaits you brother. A truer death has found me. Vacant eyes stare. Ambition turns to malice. Arise and raze this legacy of lies! Marching into this void, we seek a worthy truth. Through the passage of time common grounds have been found. These wounds, mended by your death.

I am not the same! A deal done with malice claim. Violence, a worthy truth.

Soon there will be nothing left. Your boundless pain must be felt. Rise! Illuminated by pale light. We descend into night. Fire rains down. Blurred vision soon turns red. Begging for completion. Culling the weak for sport. Spite filled fist pounds on skull. A thud, another lamb. A thud, another lamb. Primal hysteria. This is agony. Catharsis. Wiping it all away. You will bow… for your butcher. Illuminated by pale light. We descend into night. Fire rains down. Blurred vision soon turns red. Begging for completion. Culling the weak for sport. Spite filled fist pounds on skull. A thud, another lamb. A thud, another lamb. Primal hysteria. This is agony. Catharsis. Wiping it all away. You will bow… for your butcher. Soon there will be nothing left. Your boundless pain must be felt. Masterpiece of righteous flame. Claiming hearts I always craved. A culture devoured by darkness. Two souls remain within ruin. Soon there will be nothing left. Your boundless pain must be felt. Masterpiece of righteous flame. Claiming hearts I always craved.
“A vow for revenge. Torn from grace. Flourish me. Sunken Mind. Defeated. Ever-moving. Self-Loathing. Suffering, yet I’m unconquered” - Meinrad

Becoming the Alpha

A floating sensation. Beady eyes scan the earth. Flickering lights oscillate. Kindred spirits have entwined. Manifestation, unsound mind. Vicious jaws become unclenched. Focused consideration. Lost but now I’m found. The inner rot subsides. Mental transformation. Purpose unraveling. I am the strength of nature. Mad dash into the wild. Faint sense engulf the mind. Feel the fear. Gnashed teeth uncompromised. Discarding the runt. Abandon nostalgia. Leading the hunt. Becoming the alpha. Sounds soar all around! Frantic panic. Race for sustenance. Acute precision. I reach for life. A shield of fangs. I will serve my life’s debt. A life for a life. This fatal gambit. Mad dash into the wild. Faint sense engulf the mind. Feel the fear. Gnashed teeth uncompromised. Discarding the runt. Abandon nostalgia. Leading the hunt. Becoming the alpha. The beast has returned! A familiar foe! Behold! This is destiny!

Listen to the echoes of the wilds. That feeling preserving. The hourglass shatters. An example must be set. Once a man, now a beast. Guilty blood is all I crave. Primordial roar. Deathly charge of a thousand men. A violent waltz to prove our worth. Indirect claim of vengeance. As the clouds subside, I see the light. Surrounded by fangs, I...persevere. Leaving a crimson trail. Behind the pain you will find an epiphany! As the clouds subside, I cannot see. A blinding black consumes me. Peace has been made. Perplexed ...but I must digress. Release... me from this pain. Immobilized limbs. I drift on. Ebb and Flow of Essence. I drift on. As the clouds subside, I cannot see. A blinding black consumes me. Peace has been made. Perplexed ...but I must digress. Release... me from this pain. Sinister silence takes me home. Destroy this senseless cage. A spark of the mind. A god is born. Revelations, Penance of blood!. Sacred bond come undone. Realization sinking in.

Atonement! Accepting this dark fate of madness. A walking plague consumes the earth. My blade will not elude you. Your righteous flame extinguished. Destiny made its choice. A new era is born. My own blood... Oathbreaker. The Gallows call your name. Retribution has been deemed. I am Oblivion! Ever-moving. Focused consideration. A violent waltz to prove our worth. A horrific scene. No warmth remains. Becoming the past. Grief like no other. Torn and mutilated. Emptiness inside. Stripped of my rightful claim. This was my purpose. Have I lost control? Was I ever? My own blood... Oathbreaker. The Gallows call your name. Retribution has been deemed. I am Oblivion! Ever-moving. Focused consideration. A violent waltz must prove our worth. Incongruency. Distorted validation. Have I lost control? Was I ever? A haunting proposition. Limitations rupture. Frantic laugher envelopes. What is the point? Death has found me. Halting this writhing pain. Thrust into the sea. My efforts in vain. My own blood... Oathbreaker. The Gallows call your name. Retribution has been deemed. I am Oblivion! Ever-moving. Focused consideration. A violent waltz must prove our worth. A horrific scene. No warmth remains. Becoming the past.Grief like no other. Torn and mutilated. Emptiness inside. Stripped of my rightful claim. This was my purpose. Have I lost control? Was I ever? A haunting proposition. Limitations rupture. Frantic laugher envelopes. What is the point? Death has found me. Halting this writhing pain. Thrust into the sea. My efforts in vain. Run from the pain. Watery Grave. One last search for… cognizance...

I thought Replicant's previous record was badass this new record is just so beyond badass it's bonkers awesome and so left field riffage,this album properly grooves and fires on all cylinders. Replicant may have just laid down the gauntlet of best technical death metal album...ever!!

Let's see...On the plus side: great musical ideas, great arrangements, lots of potential. On the downside: lyrics too cheesy, songs are lacking a bit of length: they always kind of fall short. There are great riffs, but the songs need more development. overall, very interesting: let's see what comes next. 7/10
