I call upon thee, who defied the gods and stole the fire of Olympus,
Father, you who shaped man out of mud and brought him to life
I call upon your name
Prometheus
On the sacred altar of the philosophers
I’m standing as your masterpiece
With my blood and my body as offerings
Bless and animate
The mass of flesh sewn into the shape of a man
Breathe my soul into the heart of it
I covet immortality
Golem Arise! Golem Arise!
Who am I ? My existence is unnatural. I’m nothing but the result from a failed experiment.
Why try to create a human simulacrum, an abomination, and do not bother to make it complete ?
You gave me birth so that i was a vessel for your soul
You don’t deserve to walk on this earth more than me
You wanted me to reshape the world and be the sovereign
A whale in a sea of sulphur, sailing in acid rain
Your face is writhing in agony but your eyes still hanger for hubris
I’m so glad to see you suffer under the weight of your sins
If you want to end your suffering
so carve on my forehead the name of God.
Carve on my forehead the Name of God.
Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis. Metallurgical Fire
I don’t usually go out much for metalcore/deathcore but this album would easily make my shortlist. Emotionally captivating with great storytelling and an overall solid musical performance. 7/10 RJ
