lyrics
Descend
From the bones of the netherworld enlivened
Senses are heightened from within
Subatomic pathways into the underworld
Flame lit matrix
All-consuming gateway to chasms beyond
Enter into the abyss primordial
Descending into obsidian realms
Subconscious subterfuge parted like ashen waves
Coiling inwards
The flame lit the cavern
Guiding the way
A journey to bring he who treads upon its path
Face to face with all that is hiding
Into the shadow's crawl
My voyage is sown
Touching down in the lowest realm of lifeless forms
The roots below
The surviving will of astral form
Lit from within
They became inverted from the deeds of one
Defaced
Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate
Lost in the murky heart long since extinguished
The Blade of the Sun sheathed in an amethyst throne
Knowledge of the self sits silent for those with ears to hear
The light of consciousness begins to appear
Peering through prayers of fear
Without a pure heart
Inverting all into deception
Birthing daemons that slither and crawl through their phantom minds
Reflections of the trauma unhealed
Buried are jewels that lay hidden inside you
Lighting the path of the warrior and guiding the way
10,000 hungry ghosts longing to drink its illumination
They became inverted by the deeds of one
Defaced
Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate
Seeking now the light of Gnosis
Closing the chasm of the nihilistic gods
This place of wickedness and gloom
A labyrinth of coiling walls
Now lit by the flaming sword of truth
Revealed in the light are legions of cannibals
Feeding on the abscesses of fear that fester and malign
Insatiable appetite
One must conquer their demons with courage
A hero dies only once a coward dies a thousand times
From the bones of the netherworld enlivened
Senses are heightened from within
Subatomic pathways into the underworld
Flame lit matrix
All-consuming gateway to chasms beyond
Enter into the abyss primordial
Descending into obsidian realms
Subconscious subterfuge parted like ashen waves
Coiling inwards
The flame lit the cavern
Guiding the way
A journey to bring he who treads upon its path
Face to face with all that is hiding
Into the shadow's crawl
My voyage is sown
Touching down in the lowest realm of lifeless forms
The roots below
The surviving will of astral form
Lit from within
They became inverted from the deeds of one
Defaced
Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate
Lost in the murky heart long since extinguished
The Blade of the Sun sheathed in an amethyst throne
Knowledge of the self sits silent for those with ears to hear
The light of consciousness begins to appear
Peering through prayers of fear
Without a pure heart
Inverting all into deception
Birthing daemons that slither and crawl through their phantom minds
Reflections of the trauma unhealed
Buried are jewels that lay hidden inside you
Lighting the path of the warrior and guiding the way
10,000 hungry ghosts longing to drink its illumination
They became inverted by the deeds of one
Defaced
Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate
Seeking now the light of Gnosis
Closing the chasm of the nihilistic gods
This place of wickedness and gloom
A labyrinth of coiling walls
Now lit by the flaming sword of truth
Revealed in the light are legions of cannibals
Feeding on the abscesses of fear that fester and malign
Insatiable appetite

A hero dies only once a coward dies a thousand times

You know when a song's chorus or hook just really hits the spot, right in the pocket? This album is 45 minutes of that. 🤘

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis.

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.

Much like the two previous albums, this album grew on me the more I listened to it. IE know exactly what they are doing. 10/10, can't stop listening to this. Please do a tour in California!
