lyrics

I'm drained - I'm blind
I lay weary
Tearing out my own eyes
As she sucks the meat from me

I am sex and I am death
Cannibal aphrodisiac
I am life and I give breath
Glimmering in the black

I spit blood in the face of God
I give life forevermore
Sustained by flesh alike my own
Devour and leave only bones
All our monarchs lying dead
Unending urge that must be fed
As this holy copulation ends
Give yourself to nothingness

Devour

Hangover Suicide 7"
by Iron Witch

These guys have a few EPs but this is their most recent. Excellent groovy/bluesy sludge ala EyeHateGod and the likes. Well worth your time and money :) Skeletons

Tarnation
by Bastard of the Skies

Huge Riffs & absolute hatred. These guys are exactly what sludge should sound like, and should definitely be checked out by fans of High on Fire, Winter, Graves at Sea & generally any sludgy doom! Skeletons
