a common misconception.
i have a heart, and a soul, and a conscience.
i have control.
these bones are now breaking.
i have kept this secret buried.
i've kept it buried for so long.
i began to believe my own lies,
hiding my ugly face behind a smiling mask when my eyes show another truth.
these eyes show another truth.
i am a monster. i am the victim. i am two.
but which one will i choose?
this creature in my heart, oh please just make it stop.
this feeling is so foreign.
my mind is silent till the blood drops.
its over, this silence is over.
help me pick up the pieces.
remember me?
the one you fought so hard to hide, the tortured soul.
the creature that you keep inside, it has taken control.
say goodbye.
say goodbye to who used once knew.
i am the monster, the victim. i am two.
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
Been listening to this since 2013. Eventually tried to track down a CD but now I'm starting to go digital. So, has 7 years of listening to this EP dulled the experience? Not even slightly. Amazing work. From Nathan's ghost beats on the snare, polyrhythmic measures and insane kick pedal work, Eric's unique tone on vocals and both Aaron and Josh's melodies and interesting structures. Just hope they get the chance to tour England soon. JAY DYER

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228
