And in the beginning there was chaos
The earth and the sky were one
A single dominant phenomenon with seven faces
And no eyes
All eyes look up to the saviour
All virgin minds are violated by scorn
And there is no resolution
Only seven bulking heads
A gluttonous king appointed by its fathers
Feeds on sick brains
Low and behold, a race of machines
Divided by different versions of sins
The craving for power infused with hope
To see the one true face of God.
One is the longing for the money - shot
Two is the self indulgence of the royal swines
Three is the superficial need of a shallow soul
Four is to play dead and rot
Five is penance runs amok
Six is gouging out your good eye

The dense, thoughtful layering and arrangements on this album has me regularly coming back. Reminds me of Beyond Creation in its alien but weirdly elegant sound. The compositions are adventurous without being jarring, which is very impressive considering the inclusion of symphonic and ambient sections. Thoroughly enjoyable whether you're paying attention to the music or not.
I'm also personally inspired by the fact that the music, mixing, and art were all one person. Wonderful Person
