The wretched hollow, a void within
Disintegration of identity begins
Driven by the need to be complete
You fabricate an inaccurate reality
Compulsion to deceive yourself
Distorts your view of the world and all else
Incessant self obsession: ego infatuation
What will you gain, deluding yourself?
What you see is not real
You cannot be coerced to feel
Reject the thoughts flooding the senses
You're lost to this illusion aesthetic
Lost in illusion...
Problems ignored through misdirection
A conscious diversion of attention
Distractions pulling focus from the way
you've condoned your own slavery
[Solo: McMorran]
What you see is not real
You cannot be coerced to feel
Reject the thoughts flooding the senses
To be free from this illusion aesthetic
Lost in Illusion...
[Lead: Ellis]
[Solo: Ellis]
Now is the time to recreate
And abandon this idea of fate
Conceptualise and begin rebirth
To rediscover a sense of self worth
What you see is not real
You cannot be coerced to feel
Reject the thoughts flooding the senses
To be free from this illusion aesthetic
Free from illusion
Free from illusion

These guys are great friends of ours and have just released their incredible debut! Seriously awesome thrashing death metal - you can't help but bang your head when you hear it! Bloodshot Dawn
Something a bit different - The awesome debut from this Brighton based hard rock/grunge band. It has some of the most epic melodies and grooviest riffs you'll find throughout the UK underground. Bloodshot Dawn

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

An excellent blend of tech and melodic death metal. This album is noticeably different from Demons (a stunning release), but still retains their style. Taylor Henderson
