lyrics

BLACK SWAN ANNIHILATION

One would have thought that the day the last superstition died
Was the gateway to unfettered freedom, where no danger remained to threaten
Would that it were true, but fate is cloaked
...by a Black Swan

Time is not a Single Cosmic Order
Its mastery should have been perfect
But across the vastness, condensed to a singularity
Connection became the vulnerability for the plague to spread

Error, failure, exponential: would be the destroyer
Overlooked, unforetold, from one or all of the world, the flesh or the devil
Came annihilation

Immovable object meets with the unstoppable force
Energy, the opponent, eyes while lucid, were too blind to see the warning hidden in the skies
A cancer that grew behind the mask. of the benign

Universal acid leaves extinction in its wake
Anti-miracle, the defeat of deep time
Skyhooks, abandoned in the cleansing balance

Earth, scorched of intelligence, that trait, never hailed as a virtue
The tragedy of past, mistaken, dogma
No second coming, no deliverance, ultimate destiny is not controllable
As there is always the unpredictable influence of perfect chaos

Black Swan Annihilation

about

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

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

Delicate Poison
by In my Shiver

supported by 13 fans who also own “Black Swan Annihilation”

"Delicate Poison" emerges as a true product of committed sonorous experimentation. This isn't your typical depressive nor emotional-esque occurrence. Powerful riffs, frail ambiences & ghastly vocals shall numb your ears. ms.antrophia

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderun

supported by 13 fans who also own “Black Swan Annihilation”

I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer
