Biblioclast Waltz
from Fever Kingdoms by Pyrrhon
lyrics
Each breath a shredded page
Each heartbeat a crack in the spine
Dancing to screams from deleted lines
I march for clarity
With each step I am more despised
Force me to writhe in rational confines
You whisper a prayer a day
“Deliver, o Lord, his demise”
But bolts from the blue never darken the skies
Debunk the lies
Dominion defied
Open mind’s eye
Tangle my mind, sever my senses
Bury me
Pluck out my eyes, bind my fragile limbs
Bury me
Sew my mouth shut, fill my ears with clay
Bury me
Whitewash my thoughts, replace my soul with yours
Bury me
Constraints hobble your mind
Deaf, dumb and blind
Rifle through the text
For answers you can’t find
Open your eyes, abandon the book
Each heartbeat a crack in the spine
Dancing to screams from deleted lines
I march for clarity
With each step I am more despised
Force me to writhe in rational confines
You whisper a prayer a day
“Deliver, o Lord, his demise”
But bolts from the blue never darken the skies
Debunk the lies
Dominion defied
Open mind’s eye
Tangle my mind, sever my senses
Bury me
Pluck out my eyes, bind my fragile limbs
Bury me
Sew my mouth shut, fill my ears with clay
Bury me
Whitewash my thoughts, replace my soul with yours
Bury me
Constraints hobble your mind
Deaf, dumb and blind
Rifle through the text
For answers you can’t find
Open your eyes, abandon the book

about
Pyrrhon New York, New York
"Outré as they get, everything Pyrrhon do emanates from an obsidian death metal core - just that this music is that much more expressive, its impact that much more disquieting than almost anything else in the genre."

Labyrinth Constellation
by ARTIFICIAL BRAINsupported by 31 fans who also own “Biblioclast Waltz”
A spectacular debut album, which sets a brutal and atmospheric tone, very well suited for the cold and unforgiving edges of space they are themed around. An amazing album from start to finish.

Probably the peak of their labyrinthine, esoteric melodic songwriting! Love the death metal added to this era of their style.

One of my very first metal albums that i listened to, and i still listen to it almost every week, Artificial brain do an amazing job of creating a brutal and atmospheric sound, with a great deal of technical guitar and unique parts of each track, worth every penny

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulceratesupported by 27 fans who also own “Biblioclast Waltz”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.
