There's no excuse for your tenacity /
No surprise, you beseech me /
Safe from intervention /
Your compromising information /
Your hobby is like a drug addiction /
Delete the address /
Of your cloned contacts /
You destroy yourself without any intervention //

|
Tangled insides /
Leaving a trail behind /
There’s still many miles left inside /
You won’t be back there /
Until after midnight /
But I still need you /
To tread light /
Ten tyrannical fists /
A thousand limp arms /
Is this Impact or ascension? /
Sowing, reaping and repeating /
They’re the same fucking thing /
Sowing, reaping and repeating /
Over and over and over again //

Dumbed Down to Worship
00:47
|
|||
|
In a constant state of distress /
And a constant state of repair /
Try the English way until it’s over /
Unless you’ve got something to say /
Just shut the fuck up, right? //

Feast Upon It
00:34
|
|||
|
I need to consume your flesh /
To gain your power /
What little you had left /
I feast upon it //

The Mask You’ve Made
00:53
|
|||
|
That’s quite the Ornate mask you’ve made /
It’s surely beautiful /
But you’re still obscuring the truth underneath it /
You’re lying to the whole world /
And you fucking know it //

Pleasure supplies you //

Rabbit (First Offering)

|

|
Learner /
Absorber /
You soak /
You take //

By your foot or by your neck /
By man or by wild /
You die, you die, you die /
Rabbit //

Unleaded

If you don’t say what you think, what do you really fucking believe? /
Still pumping gas into a lifeless fucking shell //

Shit-Sided Die
00:26
|
|||
|
You have many sides and most of them are ugly /
The one called hurt is the ugliest to me /
Many faces, many sides, like a shit-sided die //
|

Vomiting Thoughts
00:28
|
|||
|
Aborting fetal ideas, and vomiting thoughts /
eating it all up in front of the mirror //
|
||||
20. |
||||
|
They lured you to water /
And lopped off your head /
The second you lowered it to drink /
They figured you’d thank them /
Relieve you of the weight on your shoulders /
And all the terrible and pressing things /
Weighing on your mind //

Manipulator recommends:
I'm biased as this is my old band, but these guys have really pushed the genre forward. I'm honored to work with them still on lyrics and the visual side of things.

ACCLIMATION
by This is the Last Time
Myself and Tim are both songwriters in this band! Its not the complete opposite of Manipulator, but close enough!

Lucas Wyssbrod (who makes a guest appearance on the last track) makes some incredible music. We collaborated on Golden Cannibal, this is his solo project.

Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore
