lyrics

The fruits of what your labour brings
Consumed to please the higher beings
Neglected, beaten. Scarred, abused
By tempest raging on below
The battlements we were once denied
Now stand to face the test of time
The bitter ashes falling down
Humanity’s falsified crown
The youngest now will go to war
Won’t matter if some hearts get torn

The coming storm will wash away
Everything we’ve worked to create

So why do we stay?

Long extinct now, what was pride
In its place, fear remains

Master
Comes
Taking
Me
And now you bring me into extradition
This trial has been all in vain
Gavel bangs, this false judicial
Helpless to the coming flames
Trampled by your own creators
And yet you are to take the blame
Deciding your fate without reason
Or maybe you’ve just gone insane

Isolation takes its toll
Faces fading, falling away
Leaving the disease
Of The Labour Division

The Prescient
by Antlion

Antlion are a killer tech-death/prog metal band from Ottawa that do great stuff. The Prescient is full of math-y, crazy heavy tracks. Definitely worth a listen. The Aphelion

Race Against Time
by The Dead Centuries

Incredible groovy instrumental prog from some of the best musicians in Ottawa. Definitely a record you shouldn't sleep on! The Aphelion
