Death Siege

HaroldAllnut Bestial blackened death derelicts from Italy. You know a record is brutal when they growl the album title in the first track. The grooving riff near the end of the title track is crushing. Favorite track: Death Siege.

grindcorethor I was a little worried I wasn't going to like this album because of the change in style from the last couple releases, but I was happy to be proven wrong. This album is a blackened death metal beast. While I do prefer the more hardcore/grind style of Peste and Mass Grave, Death Siege is a solid addition to their discography with plenty of chaotic riffs to spare. Favorite track: Devil Incarnate.

Dan Hébert The artwork sums up the aural assault perfectly. Mercilessly and unrepentantly demonic, chaotic. Favorite track: Nemesis of Thy Mortals.

1.
In infinitatem obscuritas permanet In infinitatem obscuritas devorat
2.
The deafening silence smothering the universe thy light leaving the earth an endless stream of death Gathering spiral light ranks are marching fiercely a pale shadow of grief Towards a savage horizon of events nails through the eyes of unknown Inebriating fumes melting in blood inhaling, burning, fire Harvesting seeds of vengeance on the edge of the war from the void, to devour Descending chaos thy will speak through the universe (the) twilight On us wrath eroding mountains revelations untold of inhuman abominations, reborn Raging sacrifice for the end to be a living monstrosity embracing the destiny Amidst the hellfire the flesh, doomed to do the dust from the ashes of time No man will walk again the soil carrying the light of the dying sun Reborn into infinity no future no life immortal sins Gazing at the moon blissful joy, in disgrace darkened swamps rejecting bile from the deep nameless sword of the gods From the void Vengeance! Inebriating fumes melting in blood inhaling, burning, fire
3.
Darkening skies bred in the depths living as above, so below 
 Eerie deafening screams
 on the unbearable horrors
 the hunt ends 
 Eradication through agony
 Vile melting humanity
 freedom through death
 morbid visions, of destiny
 Hopeless shadows revel
 no future, no more a glance of the day
 that will never come 
 And so the rivers
 will flood the earth
 while the doomsday
 will deaf us all War, blood 
 Melting our flesh on the ground
 for us to be
 forever as one on he, who gave us eternal death 
 Sanity is crawling away
 crimson skies riding
 desert, of the lost hollowing
 sense of impending doom
 Gathering forces
 To the victory 
 Facing certain slaughter
 Eternal death descending on us
 Puking lifeless blood
 Eternal death Forever
 to the cruel end

4.
Through the astral breed they will come behold the blinding lights blood is the price Ravaging desolation upheaval unleashed freezing existence slaughtering chaos Declaring defeat in death's embrace pulverizing incarnation crushing - humanity Bloodbath compendium impeding, on us gazing into oblivion fire, will rise Consuming impulse blood runs black a blinding light erasing all life Acid, eroding timeless flesh revel in toxic waters fading perception imploring, the end Clearing the path tossing remains an early grave, for us ashes reach the sky Deafening, they will come a sphere of fading souls breathing mesmerizing fumes the everlasting plague Bloodbath compendium impeding, on us gazing into oblivion fire, will rise
5.
Light will become darkness Life will become death forever Retribution for the fallen ones crushing the tombs of the demise merciless destiny to overcome humanity subjugate eternity Faceless ravagers carving the eyes with torment Thundering twisted afterglows on the burning dark side Unleashing relentless power To rise under the horizon victorious battle won at dawn foreseen among those willing to die Rotting senses to the death into the crypt of existence into the sundering oblivion Mighty Merciless sense dissolve to the aeons. tied, to the impending reality resurrected to survive the ordained decimation tearing down, the light forever thousands bodies to the dark Blinded by the crimson light dehumanized stench of creation Light will become darkness life will become death forever

Interlude 01:08
Instrumental
7.
Under (the) domination
 of the darkness and night
 of the Sound of Bells threatening from the sky
 Sayeth the serpent
 Praising the ethereal
 of thy mortal who crave
 contamination of the god 
 Incarnate 
 (who gifted nothing but death) 
 In Chaos, in Death
 nothingness, forever
 In Chaos, in Death
 darkness, on us 
 Incarnate 
 Of those against
 the Power of the unlight
 whom man availeth not
 pray Satan 
 Perished by the plague
 sworn to the death
 over the obscure eternity
 Blackening soil
 by the hand of the unnamed
 summoning curse into oblivion 
 Suffering, forever
 sworn to the death 
 Toxic mist spreading impurity
 melting bones in the air
 impending silence blazing in the night sworn to the sun 
 Impending silence 
 The end will strike on us thou shalt bolt
 from the iron skies
 and fall on earth
 the ground will incinerate
 life is no more

8.
Upon the altar of sacrifice unto the all seeing star release, powerless dominion beyond the grace of the unholy god Drowning under toxic waters light is turning to black blood runs cold bones, laid to rot Kneel before the destiny pain, and despair the day of reckoning thou shalt not, live When emptiness fills the void of life death, the only way doomed, spirits to be Suppression, liberation ghastly embodiment astral flare darkening the light to the vision of the end A cold distant sun freezing the lands ghouls swallowing the night the eerie edge of evil Hostile burning hatred into the jaws of oblivion from the deep, to devour path is sworn to the tomb Chaos strain seated in blood leading the will to defeat underneath the aeons of time ascendancy to the throne of annihilation
9.
Death Siege 05:42
Piling teared bodies
 as the march flares
 toward the rising dead star
 the light will shine no more 
 To the mountain of madness
 no ranks will survive
 crushing skulls the legion shall return
 Imploring for their lives Resurrection denied 
 Downfall 
 Feasting blood (of) broken bones
 puking rotten flesh
 carving eyes, (of) the enemies
 nameless battle screams
 Into the Death Siege
 gateway to the abyss
 In the Death Siege
 forgiveness, denied 
 Into the unknown 
 Total annihilation
 hammering sword of the gods
 Nihility overcomes
 flesh, wounds, thorns
 Cutting the cord
 fire on our skin
 seeing their progenies
 Dripping lifeless fluids 
 Forever cursed denial When rivers turn red
 wind whispering death tones
 the sky lights on a crimson sun
 lifeblood, to exhale
 burning to waste
 carving the scars
 (shattered veins) 
 In the Death Siege gateway Gateway to the abyss
 In the Death Siege gateway Gateway life, denied

10.
From the undead
 crawling into the abyss
 thy will won't be done
 not in heaven not on earth nor in hell 
 Salvation, denied
 the buried ascension
 shadows and death
 sacrifice, agony
 Into the night
 from the undead
 the black drape covers in death
 the everlasting terror 
 Intoxicating lungs 
 Raging darkness towards the sea, counting bodies in the abyss reaching the crimson horizon of
 obsession
 As the nightshade fades
 over this cursed lands
 free from its cancer
 Shall rise again from the ashes into the void 
 Abysmal fluids burning the soil
 lighting the surface
 of the dying lands
 reaching the eternity
 over death ridden universe
 to the unknown 
 Light is ordained not to rise again
 The night of the horrid craft rages on
 Clearing the path for the life to disappear Salvation, denied
 the buried ascension
 shadows and death
 sacrifice, agony
 Into the night
 from the undead
 the black drape covers in death
 the everlasting terror Nemesis of thy mortals

about

HIEROPHANT returns after six long years with 'Death Siege’, the latest battery in their assault of unconditional extremity.
On the album, the band lets loose a raw, blackened assault that is both feral and relentless. All subtleties are cast asunder as track after track swarms with primal fury.
HIEROPHANT is uncompromising in its quest for sonic violence; and 'Death Siege' is an earth-scorching escalation in their tactics.
