the panic is useless
stop and look around,
all the shelves are empty
and no one is in charge.
what is life
but the choice
to stand aside
and watch
while the cage is torn apart
and they remove the beating heart.
while they lick their fingertips
until the bones
are all that they have left
to gnaw.
this is life
this is it.
feel the breath of angels as they spit in your mouth
and feel the hand of god as he pushes the air from your lungs.

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
