Birth Of A Canyon

Deep down it's all decided.
No mask you put on will hide it.
Benevolence, far from out of reach.
Slowly getting closer, in range of deeds.
Just a little further, almost close to the touch.
Then hesitate, doubt and retreat.
Now the earth starts shaking, all confidence is lost.
Cracks below, the birth of a canyon.
Split the soil in two
Tear a gap wide open
Swallowed by the ground
No path to walk upon
Cliffs emerge, old routes vanish.
From aimless walking to constant falling.
Now reconsider, drop all ambitions,
set a new goal, just make it out of here.
Split the soil in two
Tear a gap wide open
Swallowed by the ground
No path to walk upon
Longing for a grip, as the earth parts, fear in charge.
Clawing at the rocks, nowhere to hold on to, nails bleeding.
All out of breath, fatigue overwhelming, giving in.
Gaze into the deep, cripple the mind, just stasis.
Gravity at work, picking up pace, pulled downward.
Just before impact, black out and faint, unconsciousness.
Deep down, all’s been decided.
No thud, still not at the bottom.
Split the soil in two
Tear a gap wide open
Swallowed by the ground
No path to walk upon

Tolerance hides well,
under layers of disgust.
Wary of anything,
that slightly varies from the norm.
On the hunt for deviance,
in awe of any kind of stray.
To suffocate their spark,
leads us into the dark.
Progression as rebellion,
how those curious do scare.
Conserving an antique order,
experiments a fool's errand.
Suffocate our spark,
plunge into the dark.
Forcing severity
upon anything outside of the center.
A blunt denial of inner forces,
on the margin of self-deception.
Youth as a threat to a boasting order,
unsure of itself.
Forcing severity
upon anything outside of the center.
A blunt denial,of inner forces,
on the margin of self-deception.
Youth as a threat to a boasting order,
unsure of itself.

If there's a pattern, i'll find the formula
to predict the course the curve will take.

Wave after wave,
pushed below the surface
Dragged down by the undertow,
no sense of direction.
A grip so tight it smothers.
Overwhelming force, no use fighting back.
Anchors through my spine.
Yanked down with violence.
Disarmed and passive, turned into a victim.
Tunneled vision, mind collapsing, pressure rising, will resigning
Down to the firmament, up to the ocean floor.
All light, all colours fading.
Engulfed in gloom.
Claimed by the depths below, never to resurface.
The waves they will keep coming.
The anchors will keep pulling.
Far from a matching formula
Always looking for a pattern.
Down to the firmament, up to the ocean floor.

Prey in sight.
Charge head on.
Teeth to the neck.
Got to eat up.
May their gods all fall
victim to our cause.
Crave for more.
Tear off their skin.
Rip out their guts.
Gnaw on their bones.
Devour hook, line and sinker.
May their gods all fall
victim to our cause.
Overcome trenches slowing our pace.
Tearing down obstacles in our way.
Leave behind any empathy.
Endless growth will be our remedy.
Greed, dear deity.
Feast until we're sick.
Gulp it all back up.
So we can gorge
once more.
Overcoming trenches,
Tearing down obstacles.
Leave behind any empathy.
Endless growth will be our remedy.
We're omnivores heeding our own call.
To meet demands that can't be met at all.
Strike a match for the final straw.
May the wildfire consume us all.
Those who bear the weight
and those who claim the treat
will meet the same fate in the flames.
Devour, need more
Devour, need more
Strike a match for the final straw.
May the wildfire consume us all.
Join the hunt or be our prey.
Gaia, purge us.
To save yourself.
Gaia, purge us,
so at least one of us will live.

Very dark and melancholic and also a progressive album. Beat and atmosphere remind me strongly of TOOL.

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

I've always been on the fence about Elder. The musicianship was always there but it never clicked. Omens and Innate Passage have certainly changed that.

The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations.
