As i betray the midlines
Alter my meridians
Reach from this dead and hopeless
To wallow in my oblivion
I know
As i feed illusion
Alter my perceptions
I can't shake this
Morbid feeling that
Consummates my deceptions
I know
I’m your valgus now
Intruding bone and limb
I'm gonna crawl on round
Splinter cut your skin
Oh no i'm dreaming
While i'm awake
In place of screaming
For all the faces that i've
Loved and lost
And inside
The sweetness of surrogates
It holds tight
The affluence of arrogance
Broadside
The pain that did reign livid
Now heed my
Catalyst for evolution
I’m your valgus now
Intruding bone and limb
I'm gonna crawl on round
Splinter cut your skin
Nightmare of narcolepsy
Such a pitiful irony
Nothing to quite say
So i scream silently
Silently
As i betray the midlines
Alter my meridians
I can't shake this
Morbid feeling and
Wallow in my oblivion
This breaching valgus out of hand
Killing gods and making stands
Helping me feel more arrogant
And helping me to understand now
What is right
What is wrong
What is weak
What is gone
What is mine
What is strong
Why the
Hell's the
Pain not
Gone
I’m your valgus now
Intruding bone and limb
I'm gonna crawl on round
Splinter cut your skin
Nightmare of narcolepsy
Such a pitiful irony
Nothing to quite say
So i scream silently
Hold me up
To let me down
Tell me why your so profound
With your
“life we have it means so much”
The arrogant bullshit ensues in such that i
Moderate in modicums camus son
Cause the existential crisis it never subsides
And all i have left to supersede me
Is on the
Inside
Inside
Inside
Inside
Can't you see that i'm bitter of the better man, envious of the latter to the deaded end, couldn't see that they told me of the upper hand, the ubermench may be viewed as a mad man. Come on back for the encore of the century and
Cut my skin
You
Be my
Existential madness
Cut my skin like the shylock you
Fucking are
Upheave my, vaudevillian veil vulnerable to the venerable victims visage
This valgus
Cuts like a rending saw
Help me now to
Moderate in modicums camus' son
By George they can't all be
Zingers can they
Oh well
Help me now to
Moderate in modicums camus' son
Come take a seat
take a load off your mind
as this wholesome dead view
is a great way to find your
WIDE EYED
FORSAKEN
to die
just like
you were
born
it's so
crushing
yet uplifting
yet i'm
yearning
for more
could you
hold me
like a razor
cut my skin
valgus bone
the madness is gripping and pulling and chipping and cutting me up in the fray
and if you could not then you couldn’t be better that all that I have left to say to your face
suck me down
this feeling
so profound
its like velvet
in my blood
but I’m so very angry all the time
burn it all down
burn it all down
burn it all down
burn it all down
Is it all real
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone
Lacerate my old valgus bone

from How The Equine Died,
track released January 26, 2018
Written by Breed and Ben Croft.
I remember hearing this album way back when it just came out, listening to it on YT on repeat. And now I have it in 2022 on CD! Excellent for fans of prog metal, with a nice balance of genres. PunkGalFury
Illyria features a progressive post-black, post-hardcore, metalcore mashup with elements of other genres, including indie and sometimes jazz. I love the use of nature sounds incorporated into the music. I also love the post-black metal influence, which is most prevalent in Illyria's eponymous album.
My favorite track from the Illyria album is "Wonder." It showcases the best of Illyria, and includes a delicious melodic riff at the end. wast3dp0tential
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024
The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 25, 2023
