Hayduke X Recommended for those who like their death metal to have both a dangerous crunch and a sense of compositional nuance. Favorite track: Mass Extinction.

metaltrigger 1974 A great Death Metal album and considering it’s their first proper full length an excellent achievement for the band. And also a great production sounds really good Favorite track: Relentless Savagery.

Tampertronics Celestial Sanctuary's tongues are nowhere near their cheeks. They are a serious band and their songs are very earnest. This is a solid first album, and I think the various elements these guys bring to the table will gel a little but more coherently on future releases. Favorite track: Soul Diminished.

Throwing their young into the fire Dancing in the heat Inhaling the fumes Laughter and howls of madness No self sacrifice Fields of dust Lakes of salt Nothing grows Mother nature... The sky spits flame Wildlife deformed Mangled limbs Intelligence diminished Fields of dust Lakes of salt Nothing grows Mother nature’s womb is barren Sulfuric seas Sterile soil Blistered earth Rid the gormless Fields of dust Lakes of salt Nothing grows Mother nature’s womb is barren Burning earth Madness swells Infection thrives Rid the gormless

Pulled from comfort And forced into existence A head on collision with gravity My mass becomes my weight Conscious of how heavy life now feels Realisation my existence Is just for your feast Soul Diminished Worthless life torn apart My Life, my life is just your feast Soul Diminished The Masses, My Master Soul Diminished Injecting growth to feed them faster Soul Diminished The Masses, My Master Soul Diminished.

His Shape holds no form Shape shift, make-shift I see no features The cell he whittles Made of man’s flesh and bone Ignite the conscious Winged beast, hoofed creature No more! No more! Bathed In black I see no features Manipulate, excruciate Inhale the toxic fog Hands wrap around your throat. Clutch to your throat In the acidic sea You will not float Clutch to your throat In the acidic sea You cannot float Bleed the land Create the fog Relentless savagery Pointless death Bleed the land Create the fog Relentless, relentless savagery Pointless death Relentless savagery.

Born into Fire, while the clock ticks by Impending doom, minimal sacrifice To feed the habits of the wretched Realm of the selfish creatures Depraved and sadistic Consuming flesh, raping the land They take it all And never extend their hand No Life, no existence Wiped off the face of the earth No life, no birth Surrender Your lungs SurrenderYour Breath The black fog bellows While life fades out Birth through the smoke The unhungry feed, while the desperate choke They say they're sane, but they're depraved A bolt to the head, for a life of pain Realm of the selfish creatures Depraved and sadistic Consuming flesh, raping the land They take it all And never extend their hand No Life, No Existence Wiped off the face of the earth No life, No Birth No Life, No Existence Wiped off the face of the earth No life, No Birth

It Holds no form Shapeless Being! The piercing glaze It Plots, it cannives! Unrelenting grip Brain-washed, No Thought Mysterious entity Vacant stare, absent mind Sentience A bone cell for your mind Lurk beneath The acidic lake Feel Your skin melt Sense Your bone crumble Embrace insanity, take comfort in pain Obey your shapeless master Suffer your sentience Addicted to fumes of death The mind rots, the mind caves Suffer your sentience Poisoned mind Fluid seeps from your ear It Burns your flesh Separates your skin from bone Feel your skin melt Sense your bone crumble Peel back the burned skin Dwell inside your poisoned mind Embrace insanity, take comfort in pain Obey your shapeless master Suffer your sentience Addicted to fumes of death The mind rots, the mind caves Suffer your sentience.

They drain my blood Here I barely stand Inward I cave They took my soul Whilst on my knees No life is saved The earth is Void of life The earth has End in sight We're bathed in Blackened light Celebrate the dawn of Human plight They heed No warning Their greed Downward soaring Near Extinction In flames you bath Mass Extinction No life is saved Mass extinction No life is saved

Pulsating form Open grave Festering empty, Lifeless husk Tongues hang out For the lingering stench Rotten core Rotting mind The stench of death Makes the weak ones froth Mind benign, thick skull Brain cells deplete The appeal of decay Yearn for the rot Tongue out, eyes wide Blind lead the blind Frothing mouth Primitive beast Familiar form Apex predator - manlike hound Death surrounds Manipulated, poisoned minds Howling as they rot inside Primal instinct To kill their own Pulling flesh from their bone Crimson light Rotten seed, deformed breed Manipulated, poisoned minds Howling as they rot inside A manufactured species war Life thrives no more. No more.

My phantom self Pulled by the strings Slave mentality Numb to the new reality Drip fed on open wounds They thrive on pus Endless winter No dead to worship Barren mind Lifeless chasm Soulless earth No fruit, No birth Thoughtless being Lifeless husk Comfort in decay, cold our minds will stay Indifferent to the death Asleep in the dirt, nothing seems absurd Pulled, torn and burned Callous empty mind The weak are left behind No redemption in the pain Our lives were lived in vain No comfort, just decay Our minds led astray Met with disdain Paralysed Watch my young be slain Burnt child, endless cycle Submit, free your thoughts It’s over soon enough Your soul has been bought Liberate your mind, free your inner chasm Submit unto me. Exit conscious thought, enjoy your placid brain Existence only pain. Featureless being, ugly freak of nature Settle for your death - Your pain is ever-more.
