lyrics

The curtain falls upon my face
And I peer through its mesh
Wrinkled black rain, suspended
At the onset of a blotted dream
Saturn devours the sun
Morning pales to a twilight glow
And the amber cast of summer
Bleeds into the gutters

I breathe in
Plumes of salt-laced petrichor

Within this great, swirling darkness
Echoes the cries of a paradise lost
A paradise lost, my Love
Buried beneath the earth
Clenched between your still hands
Dancing behind your closed eyes
A paradise lost, my Love
Buried beneath the earth

Love stains a colorful ache
Each sting births me anew
To wade in the waters of your memory
Pain pirouettes, boring deep
Tethers me to thee

A paradise lost

Moksha

Death metal/deathcore hybridization done correct! All the atmospheric passages and samples feel right in place, with great sound. Instrumentation doesn't lack as well, but the vocals could've been a little less upfront. 8.5/10 liltito

This is fantastic! Some seriously tasty brutal tech death, with absolutely crushing riffs, rhythm, and vocals. The album's production and mixing is also perfect, it's very balanced and allows the music to shine through the brutality. Highly, highly recommended! somethingsomething9

If you told me that Dischordia shared members with Dysrhythmia I'd believe it without checking. Angular, dissonant constructions that give no fucks about human enjoyment. I need more. Ghuughra
