Beware of the creature
Behold of the dangerous
I clear my thoughts
But still I lay awake
My mind skips back
To to the things
That I could’ve been
The faces I’ve met
And the things I’ve seen
They say don’t look
It’ll pull you back
When I remember this
I look at this as growth
From the pain I hold
That needs letting go
I can’t hold back
From the regrets
My heart holds
I take each day
As a lesson
That I’ve earned
To move in ways
That the pain can’t distort
I’m trying to live with grace
Each day I hold that truth
For I may take
Each regret as a lesson
Now I’ll say
Take each moment
As a blessing
For regrets in life
Are worth taking
Cockroaches
Continuous surroundings
An endless
Landscape of waves
They got you
Like shackled slaves
You’re on lock down
It’s in your mind
They’ve influenced
Your sight
A political map
The belief
We follow the steps
I’m giving you insights
Don’t be blind
Know the meaning
Of kind
Breathe what compels you
This is an endless
Landscape of waves
They got you
Like shackled slaves
You’re on lock down
It’s in your mind
Dans Invicta, Theophonos reprend une formule qu'il maîtrise bien : un black metal furieux s'inspirant de thèmes antiques grecs qui aura vite fait de perdre la personne inattentive. Mais en même temps, il sait comment changer cette formule — et il ne fait vraiment pas semblant — puisque cet album est en grande partie instrumental. Theophonos, en vrai virtuose, a l'audace de créer une ouverture de 14 minutes qui passe comme un ouragan. Comme quoi, le titre de l'album ne ment pas : il est invaincu. Jordan Vauvert
The dissonant bleakness of the first track is less weird and more hypnotic than on the second track. That's why I like it a little more. But both songs together make for an extraordinary experience and a journey to the arhythmically beating heart of darkness. mourner
If “atmospheric black metal” implies majestic comedowns and dramatic dynamics, this powerhouse instead constitutes anti-atmospheric black metal. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 23, 2021
