lyrics

Ascend to Descend (lyrics Fergus)

Experience the new air
As you rise
From a delusional slumber
The cycle of life
Try to notice the subtle changes
Surroundings differ slightly
But now you’re alone, uncovered
Vulnerable, unsightly
Hiding is futile
Your shell is weak

Ascend to descend

Don’t resist the urge
Insist on the end
The beginning never existed
You disappear
A buffet for the insects
The water extends
To rise into catastrophe
Ascend to descend
Observed by “beings” advanced
Melting into the grounds of where you came
Unexcused absence of hope

(as you) Ascend to Descend

about

Buckshot Facelift Huntington, New York

Buckshot Facelift. The splendors of earthly indulgence to the depths of human depravity. The wine, feces, women and cripples that make our days. The love, the violence, the regrets and the endless flaking dreams. The Grindcore of dying, vane American gods. We fight, we bleed, we work, we die. Here is our fucking music. ... more

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. alienasu

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

One of my very first metal albums that i listened to, and i still listen to it almost every week, Artificial brain do an amazing job of creating a brutal and atmospheric sound, with a great deal of technical guitar and unique parts of each track, worth every penny stormsurge_elite
