Entombed Existence
05:50
|
|||
|
Now I lay down to sleep
Throes of death—my soul to reap...my soul to reap
If I die before I wake
I prey ye death—my soul to take...my soul to take
Into darkness I wander blind
Leaving life and love behind...leaving life and love behind
Endless journey into black
I walk ahead—never turning back...never turning back
Existence—a distant memory
Left to linger for eternity
Immortalized for a moment in time
Soon forgotten by all mankind
Entombed existence—at Death's door, alive no more
Entombed existence—damned to the earth, no rebirth
Entombed existence—forever gone, no beyond
Entombed existence—I descend, this is the end
The brief breath of life
Filled with joy, filled with strife...filled with strife
Now rendered meaningless
As I rot in endless bliss...as I rot
Entombed existence—at Death's door, alive no more
Entombed existence—damned to the earth, no rebirth
Entombed existence—forever gone, no beyond
Entombed existence—I descend, this is the end

Into the Unknown
05:04
|
|||
|
One last glance
Then all is black
Begin the journey
Into the unknown
Close your eyes
As death tightens his icy grip
Mystery awaits you the end
Follow the path
Untrotted passage to eternal darkness
Mystery awaits you at the end
Drift to sleep
Eternity awaits
Voyage with Charon
Through marshy depths

Grotesque Creation
05:28
|
|||
|
The womb of eternity
Opens its rotten hole
The horrendous is born
Unto this earthly wretch
Gardens of endless depravity
Tilling the grave of this grotesque creation
Force of the darkest nature
Breeds like maggots in filth
Sadism unbound forever
Chaos reigns like blood
Reaping the fields of death
Tilling the grave of this grotesque creation
Epitome of the blackest evil
Current of negativity
Consuming all that is
Bury the light in the darkness
Suffer your final breath
Tilling the grave of this grotesque creation

Razor-Sharp Attack
03:56
|
|||
|
Dismantle the cross
Invert it with force
Flaunt your defiance
Let rebellion take its course
Denounce the faith
With insubordination
Give in to wisdom
Give in to temptation
Razor sharp attack, razor sharp attack,
Razor sharp attack, razor sharp attack
Slayer of the faithful
Taste the blood of the hypocrites
Bow down before nothing
Refute the rule of the holy
Tear down the walls
That oppress your mind
Accept reality
Leave your beliefs behind
No more faith
No more pretend
Death to religion
This is the end
Razor sharp attack, razor sharp attack,
Razor sharp attack, razor sharp attack
Slayer of the faithful
Taste the blood of the hypocrites
Bow down before nothing
Refute the rule of the holy

The Way of Mortality
03:51
|
|||
|
What you are, I once was
What I am, you shall be
Brittle bones, loose flesh
Filled with worms, unholy breath
The way of mortality
Never forgiving, relentless
Only to exist
For a brief moment in time
What you are, I once was
What I am, you shall be
Dripping flesh, Oozing sores
I'm the conclusion, you can't ignore
The way of mortality
Never forgiving, relentless
Only to exist
For a brief moment in time
Brittle bones, loose flesh
Filled with worms, unholy breath
Dripping flesh, Oozing sores
Dead and gone, forevermore

Visions of death
Blackest horrors manifest
Mothers bury their young
Dwelling in eternal unrest
Suffering is everywhere
Chance spares no race
To be reaped by this life
Is a sentence we must face
Death tolls his bell
Its ring, shrieks like Hell
Signaling the end
The utterance of doom
There's no way out
The sorrow and strife is too great
At death's door
Time to accept nature's fate

Death's Pallor
05:18
|
|||
|
Inherit the earth
Its soil has been hollowed out
Join those before you
In the gathering of the dead
Lowered deep beneath
Ancient oak and granite slab
For eternal sleep
Beneath the feet of those who grieve
Sickly pallor, shroud in white
Eyes sunken, cold stare
Pale rider, on death's steed
Ashen bones, pestilent breath
Crying out, wretched tone
Name the dead, one-by-one
Bell chimes, hear your name
Sunken eyes, are staring down
Hades follows
Behind cloven hoof and foul stench
Spreading like plagues
Reaping all in its path
At Death's beckon call
An inferno of flesh and bone
His scythe dripping with life
At the gathering of the dead

Morbid Premonition
04:47
|
|||
|
Lay down, paralyzed
Lifeforce, rising to the surface
Energy, pulsating
Concentrated on my third eye
Rise up, serpent's force
Thoughts of death, absorb my mind
Tingling sensation, envelopes my corpus
Escape from life, crossing the line
In darkness, my eye opens
Hallucinate, the threshold of death
Swirling, vitality
Consuming my sense of reality
Lay down, paralyzed
Lifeforce, rising to the surface
Swirling, vitality
Consuming my sense of reality

The breath of night
enshrouding tombstones, where I creep
The pouring rain
dampens the soil, and what lies beneath
The glow of the moon
glistens on graves, as I pass
This labyrinth of death
welcomes me, to my fate
Death calls, death calls
Death calls, death calls
I can hear
the toll of the bell, it summons me
The outstretched hand
of rotten death, grasping tight
Death calls, death calls
Death calls, death calls
The end is here
I wake up, to the darkest black
Cold and alone,
Left to rot, in solitude
Death calls, death calls
Death calls, death calls
Calling out my name

FETID ZOMBIE Leesburg, Virginia
FETID ZOMBIE, the blasphemous and death-obsessed, solo effort of reputable underground death metal illustrator Mark Riddick, was born in January 2007. Riddick makes no apologies or compromises for his unique vision, offering a myriad of influences from hard rock/heavy metal to technical death metal. Prepare for an unruly onslaught of anti-faith sentiment and old school death metal worship! ... more

In some tracks there is less death metal as I expected, but this makes "Transmutations" to something very interesting and special, a kind of avantgarde death metal. Highly recommended!

This is the most personally appealing piece of music I have run into in a long time - from the beautiful lyrics and art and the crushing, non pretentious gorgeous heavy music. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, crushing - are there are other words? Gorgeous, exquisite....
