Devotion (Blood for Ink)

Horrendous

Emptiness Ensconce me In a bible black sigh Absorb my tribute My abject need Robed in flesh Assuage my malaise, my lust to create with displays of teeth, devour me To extract my being I trade blood for ink Vivisection complete Commit me to memory I'll be a frail utterance cutting deep Bones eroded, shaped into effigy Make me a siren's song Make me a monument to suffering Face to the pavement Wrest me free Will you place me upon the altar? A thirst for permanence? An ego to sate? Envy's firm grasp? Commit me to memory Commit me Amongst settled dust I breathe aromas of midnight Sense the marrow's gentle pulse I'm free Then a tickling in the throat An ache wells from within Vessels Constrict I'm in the grip of angst again Free me

The HORRENDOUS album 'Idol' represents a deity, to which worship is addressed with admiration, adoration and devotion. But most of all, it represents a new beginning for the death metal inspired members. Now more than ever, HORRENDOUS expand upon the traditional death metal formula, conjuring a bolder, more sophisticated sound from disparate elements beyond the limitations of any genre.
