thesquare Easily my favourite song of 2019.

Excellent driving riffs moving forward, bass keeping it interesting while rumbling, drums cleverly combining Chris Adler and Vinnie Paul, a stylishly melodic solo and vocals sounding like a demented version of Greg Puciato. (you read that last one correctly)

Wrap it in a dynamically produced sub 4 minute package and you have a song custom built for the repeat button.

It was meant to be an appetizer, but ended up being the Final Supper. Delicious.

lyrics

Masquerade yourselves in a facade
Lie to souls of the late wicked
We are beasts now savour it raw
Craving inhumane behavior

Relieved in a grave, flesh of those who passed away
You insolent remnants
Buried six feet deep, I´m the undertaker

A call from far beyond
Vanguardian longing for living
Wasting your life reaching
Death can´t confine
The Lazarus sign
Just sharpen your sword and I´ll bury it in your soul

Fuck apologies, this is an attack
Time to purge your souls from abundance
Lord of this word an endless Sabbath

Visage split by the edge of a blade
..and the violins they weep away
Made you piss in an empty grave
Now take a sip or bend over
We are coming drunk, you can´t digest

I will remove the northerner far from you
And drive him to a parched and desolate land
His vanguard to the eastern sea
And his rear guard to the western lands
The stench and foul smell of him will rise

Our task is not to champion the degrading the revolutionary to the level of an amateur
But to raise the amateurs to the level of revolutionaries

Impaled through ground below
Vanguardian reaching for heavens
Wasting life in reaching
Death can´t confine
The Lazarus sign
Just sharpen your sword and I´ll bury it in my soul
