lyrics

FORCED DROWNING BAPTISM

Taken by surprise, held against your will
Led into the water, your lungs begin to fill
Laying of the hands, hold you under still
Cleansing of your soul it’s all god’s will

The cult is seething as your breathing
As its cleansing your life’s leaving
Simple breeding lost all meaning
Translations ripped to shreds

Chorus:
Cum unto the lord and see
A false eternity, a true hypocrisy
Only for you and me
Blasphemy blessed

Brother!

The congregation’s anticipation
For the demonstration
For your life they’ll cleanse your soul
Held down by the priest, on your sins they feast
His will be done
Writhing in unholy secretion
Under the cross salvation is lost
Heaven is a lie
Life is flashing as your

Forced drowning baptism!

Chorus

Under moonlight you thought no one saw you
Blaspheming his name you would be wrong
Woken from your slumber on a Sunday
Morning after dancing before Satan
Taken to the congregation for your
Forced drowning baptism

Blindly praising the lord over your lifeless corpse
Pandering to the meek anointing the weak
Anointing the weak

Eyes are bulging lungs are flooding
Silent process floating in your liquid coffin
Never breathing all life ceasing
Head forced under
Feel the pressure of submerging
Suffocation realization
Contemplation under water funeral

Forced drowning baptism
Cum unto the lord and see
A real falsity a true hypocrisy
Horrid atrocity
Blasphemy blessed

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

I wasn't big on these guys on record, but then I saw them live and that guitar tone translates *really* well. They gained a fan at that show, even if I still think they could trim some fat. zirtonic
