lyrics
We are weaklings and cowards
Just ordinary men
We're attracted to fire
But don't want to get burned
We deserve all your contempt
Why are you so involved?
There is something about you
That I don't understand
He knows we are credulous
He knows how to lie
We're awaiting a message
Waiting for a sign
All we have is self-loathing
Bitterness in our mouth
He knows everything we need
He knows how to lie
He knows that animals bleed
God rules his empire
Relief – far away
Reward – far away
Far away
Just ordinary men
We're attracted to fire
But don't want to get burned
We deserve all your contempt
Why are you so involved?
There is something about you
That I don't understand
He knows we are credulous
He knows how to lie
We're awaiting a message
Waiting for a sign
All we have is self-loathing
Bitterness in our mouth
He knows everything we need
He knows how to lie
He knows that animals bleed
God rules his empire
Relief – far away
Reward – far away
Far away

Great Escape
by Crippled Black PhoenixCRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX truly have no equal, and 'Great Escape' is a beautiful, ominous, and stunning work of post-rock, outsider art.
go to album -
Produced by the band and Matt Bayles (PEARL JAM, MASTODON, etc.), ‘III’ raises the stakes on their unique, Appalachia-tinged blend of heavy rock.

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderunsupported by 16 fans who also own “God rules his Empire”
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here.

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....
go to album -
Screamo, post-rock, and a little black metal meld together for Virginia quartet Infant Island's signature immersive and melancholy sound.
