lyrics

The earth beneath did not bear a name
Like the origin of the nameless ones
Absu, the Begotten …… of the seas

As my voice dissipates into the chasms
They reflect the echoes of the elders
As his reign subsides in terror
Cast down into the fathomless deep

Damn your gods of miscreation
Dethroned by your own kind
From the temples of the ancients
To the shrines of celestial spheres
Our world is called into being
Subordinate to the supreme

A shrine Of the seas
That’s been re-sculpted by the heavens
Eyes of stone carved into
Monuments of the departed

As the shadows cast beneath towering structures
The vast shrines of this starlit journey
And the dominions of chaos
That coexist between the veils of reality

A descent into the netherworld
Becomes the embodiment
Of pain and incantation

The external of my form
Asunder in the perishing winds
Torn apart and then reformed
My flesh turns to crystallized skin

Under the realm that imprisons me
Forming a parallel gateway to the citadels of the ancients
And to be crowned a king
A monarchy of alien composition

We worship the eternal
Demystify the existential
Under the entropy of our wisdom
The oceans of creation
Beckon me...

It's dark, melodic and heavy, with contrasting sections of a more mellow nature. Striving to push boundaries with their music, Anakim forever seek unity between brutality and melody, finding balance between chaos and order. ... more
