Into the fray For quest and glory Holding the line Our purgatory Spilling our blood Embracing horror Consumed by hate Tear them to the ground A crimson sky denies our fears Drowns every notion of inner decay Repulses agitation Reprived from desperation Distorted gaze State of Perplexion Wounded and torn Beyond conception Spilling our blood Betrayed honour Consumed by lies Our purpose here is done You are the chosen few Eclectic brothers An everlasting cause Eternal triumph Nothing but lies And exploitation Nothing but pawns Such degredation Distorted gaze State of Perplexion Wounded and torn Beyond conception Spilling our blood Betrayed honour Consumed by lies Our purpose here is done Insurgence has begun

I gaze beyond Immortal horrors As stars uphold Abysmal matters When they were right As cosmic rivers Consuming all Devoured and ravished Other worlds The Old Ones taught us new ways And all of Earth shall fall and burn A contradicting madness The timeless ritual has begun As time stands still The gate appears Awakened from His ether dreams No one prepared us For this sight Our essence Starts trembling Psychosis ascending Awaken his full might Unleashing Our self demise Abysm of shrieking terror Disturbing screams For evermore The Old Ones taught us new ways Our foolish deeds Have damned us all NO MAN SHALL LIVE SERVE ME FEAR ME

about

Featuring an otherworldly Lovecraftian-inspired artwork, “Shadows of the Beast” is matched by a great sounding and compelling collection of melodic death metal songs, manifesting cosmic events of terrifying vistas.

The debut concept EP album is based on three inter-connected fictional stories, taking place during the early 1900’s, whilst tied in with H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos Universe.

“Embracing Horror” describes the horrific sights of war through the eyes of British soldier Gavin Ashcroft, the lone survivor of his entire battalion.

“Shadows of the Beast” portrays the events of a summoning ritual by a secretive cult through the eyes of their high priest and their sinister incantation to beckon a Great Old One, while unknowingly unleashing their own doom.

“Tomb of the Unnamable” illustrates the nightmarish proceedings of the two previous separate stories connected together, as the surviving soldier finds shelter from an artillery barrage in a sea-side cave and explores strange markings of a long forgotten language on its walls.

The unimaginable horrors that he will witness inside the cave’s inner chamber will twist his own sanity forevermore…
