Hit the Ground Running
05:30

Power up and seek the nearest signal
Autopilot toward last hope
Peaceful sleepers to a violent dawning
Imminent collision course
Propel to almost certain death
Hit the ground running
Wake to chaos, under fire
Vision cleared, yet blurring
Chain reaction forced the touchdown
Twisting frame and torn from reveries
Spectre gone, so close
Pain familiar, temporary reprieve
Across space-time, an axiom
What is lost, is it madness found?
Hit the ground running
Light beats dark, give way to shade
Live or die fighting
Blockade danger poised to burn
Hit the ground running
Breakthrough to "the other side" Nightmare proves a warning
But must hold on to the dream

Cursed

And as the wreckage cleared
With victory declared
Turn to focus on
The goal of my revenge
Fate brings the enemy closer
Will not escape me again
For the wrath of a god who has spoken
Erase every trace that resists
Across the galaxy
Reach out to those that hunt
I am a One man war
Driven by hate
Gift of the end to the weak
All out to find those I seek
One will, it will be done
Total eclipse of the sun
By luck or design is the same end
Back from the dead she is born
A shard of my soul is her power
A weapon as love is dissolved
My prize, it is lost and uncovered
The gate must be opened again
Find them or kill yourself trying
A crownless king and a child
Across the galaxy
Reach out to those that hunt
I am a One man war
Cursed by fate
Now I can see what you are up to
I feel your dreams as if they were a part of me
Sink into the dark I can wait patiently

Matariki Dawn
06:05
|

Empire conquered, throne overtaken
Left with nothing and hunted down
Scene of murder and grim destruction
Massacre with a brutal design
Captured agent revealed hostage
Honour bound to a rescue plan
Survival distinct from a prisoner's cell
No way of knowing predestined path
First things first
Fury formed
Mobilise
Remaining force
There is hope
From defeat
One day soon
The tide will turn
Information by interrogation
A new day comes, Matariki dawn
Overriding secure access
Reduce to practical aim
Will strike back at the heart of the dragon
Fire grows with little wind
A bullet is such a tiny thing
Taking away the essential being
Oh, how quickly life evaporates

Unlikely Hero
03:56

Under the radar / salvage mission
Rumour says it / has alien worth
Unlikely hero
Infamous figure
Play by my own rules
On a knife's edge
Relic to find, collector's fantasy
And possible secret technology
Unlikely
Infamous
Piracy is easy / take what you need
Proceeds of crime / enough to retire
Unlikely hero
Infamous figure
Play by my own rules
On a knife's edge
Relic to find, collector's fantasy
And possible secret technology
Unlikely
Infamous
The concept / of brotherhood
A kinship / among the stars
Connection is made while an old flame burns
Commonality of same enemy
Converge upon this point in history
In the middle of someone else's war
Back away or become embroiled
Already in just enough deep trouble
Thought I left that all far behind but then I
Never could escape her, coin toss either way

Meanwhile
05:33
|

Did knowledge cause this bitter curse
Where many gods will join the list
Meanwhile, my world carries on
Unconcerned about all that I've done
As far away as I can be
Across space, will they find me?
Pity those that miss the point
Lost without aim and nonchalant
It turns out I will stay alone
Standing here with true colours shown
Meanwhile, my world carries on
Unconcerned about all that I've done
As far away as I can be
Across space, will they find me?
There are fires in the night burning me
All because I am not supposed to be
In this place or this time, or this world
It is not natural energy
Will I ever see my home
That disappeared a lifetime ago
Meanwhile, my world carries on
Unconcerned about all that I've done
As far away as I can be
Across space, will anyone remember me?
In the distance I see my fate
Completely alone, leaves me naked
In the distance I see my fate
Completely alone, taken by traitors

Crux Victorialis
02:45

Warning meets with rejection
Reputation discredited Allies found on the fringes
Pariah, saviour, pays the debt
Look to them rules discarded
Criminal minds, an asset prized
Secret stores futurity guarded
Shot at glory, victorealised
Crux Victorialis
Inter partes conflict
Mobilise the fire-ships
Manned by the heroic
Weapons of mass destruction
Adapt for another role
Combined to form a blastnet
Clandestine, private goal
Ostensibly sound, credible tactic
Hell of a time to test the code
More than a little luck is needed
Cracks appear before the load

Blastnet
04:58

A rip in space—ripping void to herald doom
Bringing a war — armada looms through nothingness
Predominant — supernaut sets the course
Burning red light - flagship at the forefront sails
Obliterate—settled moon, first casualty
No contest won — armoured in naught but loyalty
Invasion planned — pieces move as prophesised
Countless slaughter — valour has no meaning, terminal
Blastnet, end game
Here at the edge - last stand against the greatest odds
A decoy, snare - lattice of self-destruction closed
Now activate — into the midst of the
Fireships soar - a mouse against Goliath's rage
Blastnet, end game
Blastnet, hold back
Blastnet, end game
Blastnet, in victory
Or oblivion
Creation/Destruction
Dimensions folded back
Or a stalwart barrier
Baptism of fire

Godkiller
02:56
|

|
Outside of space, that other place
Glimpse of all things, at once, all time
Back to the start, as beyond
Arrive to the heart, prepared
Introduce final act, enter the storm
Infiltrate enemy, showdown is come
Eyes of the world watching, what is the plan?
Godkiller, prophet, freer of man(kind)
Scene is set for a trap
All roads to one destiny
Never tamed master slain
See clear through the faces again
I hold another body in my arms
Ultimate gift given away
Her energy back where it belongs, so some would say
Part of creation, the evolutionary... truth
"Death has no meaning, it is just the beginning"

Kingdom of Heathen
05:28
|
|||
|
As the dust settles on a selfless act remembered
From the edge of utter defeat, depending on the measure
Are we pawns in a greater game? A truth behind the veil
It is better unaware as fiction makes delusion real
Now deposed, tyrant cursed, crushed prematurely
As the lifeblood stains the stars, vanish entirely
These words need to be venomous, harbour no ill feeling
Did not mean to lose my god, it was He that deserted me
A temple of deceit that lies forever in ruins
Educate and expand to build a heathen kingdom
Together we forfeit our birthright's honour
Let go of tradition and yield to freedom
They say it's better to rule in hell than to serve in heaven
But both fates are edges of the same ugly weapon
Never again will masses fall the victims of religion
Choose a road, pave the way, unite tribes of these planets in peace
New age of reason and hope for future generations
A moral code delivered in a message of tolerant zeal
This is my legacy King and Empire will live on
In the bloodline of men Eternal heathen Kingdom

Monsterworks London, UK
MONSTERWORKS : has unashamedly stolen from a ludicrous number of metal sub-genres to create a truly unique beast. Be it thrash, death, old-school, prog or black metal, there is something for everyone. Expect wailing guitars, wailing screams and a pounding rhythm section, delivered by a four-man war of sound. Surely they can’t be serious? ... more

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 4 fans who also own “Singularity”
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.
