lyrics

Modernized obsolete expressions
Manifested violent urges under supervision
An indulgence hard to comprehend

A form of organized abuse, a mutual will to cripple
Frequently questioned, banned, stigmatized
Insignificant petty taunting

Reciprocal esteem, respect combined with bloodshed
Vicious punishment received, cut by slashing elbows
Never fully healed, rigorous preparations
Opened up with knees, eight corners of slaughter

Some of us are born with a natural will to kill
A quality constantly restrained
An outlet for primordial instincts
An indulgence hard to comprehend

Forced to bear a culpable brand, involuntary fight for vindication
Threatened sole purpose of existence, oppressive covetous mockery

A barbaric display to corrupt our judgment
Or a celebration of human nature, a clash of convictions

Excessive idolatry and imitation, an inevitable outcome
A reflection of the basic human need of fervent adoration

Accumulated tension released
Incarcerated frustration must be set free

Blunt brutality, savagely constricted
Blood pours down the face, beaten beyond recognition
Scars reopen once more, permanent damage inflicted
Conquering the throne, eight corners of slaughter

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
