lyrics

Behind the mask that's
Reflecting what you want to see
I taste these feelings
That throb in my breast
Only guided by my instinct,
All senses awakening
Seeking my place
Among the preys

Behind the mask of submission
That's Brooding heat of desire
Soul full of bitterness
Facing the mirror of madness
And excitement of the hunt.
Hunter wandering
Hunger is feeling
The hunting can begin

The inevitability of your end
Can be read in the reflection of your eyes
I feel like my own god

Your fear sharpens my will
My word is the last thing you will hear
For you I would write a symphony of bloody chills
I will cut your throat

Only ashes in gentle lies
I flee from my fellow men
And groom my urge
My spirit roams for this moment,
Reality lost its meaning

At the end, there's only a dark legacy
To host my whispers,
I tasted a primal freedom,
I Watched behind reality

Scattered dust of my humanity
Melts into this kingdom of appearance
And drawing a circle of probity
Hide my dominance by your ignorance
At Night Comes the eater

At the end, there's only a dark legacy
To host my whispers,
I tasted a primal freedom,
Taking you down
I will perish.

Behind the mask that's
Reflecting what you want see
I taste these feelings
That throb in my breast
Only guided by my instinct,
All senses awakening
Seeking my place
Among the prey

Moksha
by THE LAST OF LUCY

supported by 10 fans who also own “Behind The Mask”

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

The Hybrid Suns
by Exocrine

supported by 8 fans who also own “Behind The Mask”

When the production is bearable, Exocrine is probably the best tech death band in the world. This and Molten Giant are two of the best records in the genre. The last album had some real production defects that kicked me out (lawn sprinkler drum sound), but The Hybrid Suns is everything you could want in a tech death album. So unbelievably intricate and yet so much fun. It’s impossible to pick a favorite track. Metallurgical Fire
