Indoctrinated from birth to rule over the Earth
to show not weakness, nor cower.
Taught never to question, to void others of worth,
to strive for ultimate power.
Desire for numbness, to never connect.
The price that we pay to be devoid of heart is total psychic self mutilation.
And for what?
Why do I destroy myself?
What do i truly stand to gain?
Nothing...
I do it, for I'm a fool.
Because that's what i was programmed to do
Because its the only way I understand

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten

At long last, I am into the somehwat more folky sound of Dawn Ray'd and now... I am full in! However, the reason why I stuck to them in the first place is their pull on political black metal for which I honor them a lot. 1312✊666
The harrowing black metal from this Olympia, WA artist demolishes like a typhoon—a whirling, threatening cloud of sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 6, 2023
More bleak, enveloping atmospheric black metal from the masters at the Vendetta label, “aevum” is both harrowing & strangely beautiful. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 30, 2019

US Black Metal. Yesss! Not sure why it took me so long to get here but... What can I say? I am sloooowww... :) I am loving this & agree with all comments, particularly Umbra's.
