Unknown images manifest in multitude
A cloud of trepidation slowly invades
---
A peaceful slumber transforms into calamity
The heart races with terrible speed
Anxiety overtakes the earthly host
Yet remaining in a comatose state
---
An alien visage appears to you
Great tentacled beast of otherworlds
Instantly the fact is known
The truth of reality has broken down
|

2. |

Waking up from a terrible dream
You calm your fears of the unknown horror
Stepping outside to reassure your mind
A flicker of light catches your eye
---
Curiosity gets the best of you
What could this possibly be
Approaching the light slowly
The portal opens, forcefully removed
---
Thrown into the X-Zone
A floating spiritual strand
Your body has no mass
Torn apart by dimensional winds

Strange force from beyond
Encroaching upon the earthly realm
Writhing with primal chaotic energy
Their only goal is domination
A collapsed state of reality
Brought on by the alien horde
Enslavement is the future
Corruption is the way
No chance for survival
Infiltrate your dreams
---
The star spawned tyrants lie in wait
Deconstructing the tellurian web
---
Extra dimensional horrors
Agents of pandemonium
Tentacles of ruination
Throttling sanity
A collapsed state of reality
Brought on by the alien horde
Enslavement is the future
Corruption is the way
No chance for survival
Infiltrate your dreams
---
The star spawned tyrants lie in wait
Deconstructing the tellurian web

Cydonic Adulations
04:02
|
|

I search for the idols of power... godhood is my destiny.
Occult cryptograms marked with alien lexicon beckon to an extra-dimensional force
An intense glow surrounds me...
As I ascend the steps of the Cydonus Montis
---
Rumored are the great peaks to behold such wonders
A terrible beauty for mortal ken to behold
Rust-red mists of sand batters my skin
Endurance reduced to nothingness
---
Time lapses for what seems eternity
While crawling the foreboding plateau
My mind races frantically, aversion to alien fiends
Morbid fear induced by the Codex Incubo
---
"This ancient tome promises inestimable power,
a dominion contested by none.
I have arrived at the peak to attain this otherworldly accolade,
but at what price shall it be achieved..."
---
A quest for omnipotent blessings is cut short
Atop the gloomy mountains of mars, the Cydonic idols stand
The seeker of unearthly wisdom betrayed by curiosity
Trampled into dust by a tenebrous ebon hand...

Waves crash thunderously, The Pillars of Poseidon stand tall
Iniquitous incantations uttered, sanguinous rituals decreed
"The Atlanteans must atone, for their transgressions they must fall"
Crushed beneath the sea
---
Deep in the abyssal plains stirs a creature
Malevolent and wicked its nature
A colossal entity of malign intent
Its slumber disturbed by an occult beckoning
Thalassic mammoth brandishing Claws of Death
Its barbed chitonous armor stained with gore
The crustaceous fiend trudges towards the island nation
Doomed by the Cancer Domus
---
The sky is dark, the moon is red.
Listen to the sounds of the howling dead."
A herald of destiny crests foretelling waves
Slamming against the coast with alarming speed
The sea boils with rage, a host to deprave
...Atlantis will sink beneath the weeds
---
"Panic! Frenzy! Chaos ingited!
The sentinel of Poseidon beckons!"
Pincers of steel cleave left and right
Sawing through stone and bone
The behemoth sates its hunger on the flesh of infidels
A nation dismantled through brutality
History of a people erased by lust for vengeance
Platonic revisionism obscures otherworldly justice

The Granfalloon
04:26
|
|
||
|
Hordes of ragged flesh
Disease bearing fiends
A pandemic curse from hell
Rot and gore, stench of decay
Final plague
Of humanity
---
Bodies unearthed from graves
Attracted to the extrinsic glow
A massive migration
Joining as one sphere of oblivion
Nomadic globe
Consuming All
---
Obtaining great mass
The Granfalloon begins its work
Receiving fresh meat from victims
Colossus of death
---
Having feasted on the earth's entire life force, nothing left
Drifting away into space, now an undead planet

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too.
