As time passes
Colors start to blur
Empty apologies
Forgotten goodbyes
Folded up and saved in a box
Fading to a time stained keepsake of formative years
Stowed on a shelf next to books that were never read
A canvas once washed in blood and bile
Burnt and scathed
Kept hidden in plain sight
Like scars and calluses
A reminder of a time we use to dream
When the sunrise of tomorrow felt like an unwavering promise
Now everything is old and grey
Like the headstones on the cemetery lawn
Inscribed with a quotable phrase to remember us by when we're long gone
Before Ashen, I thought they were overrated. Deathcore bands seem to have a capacity to evolve quickly. I’ve seen quite a few bands in this genre grow exponentially from one album to the next, and Ashen is a particularly strong example. Metallurgical Fire
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. Metallurgical Fire
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
The experimental rock band's new record is as melodic and inventive as ever, but now with an even more honed sense of play. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2024
Ross J. Farrar of Ceremony creates dubby outside punk evoking the minimalism of Young Marble Giants on his second solo record. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2024
First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed.
Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso
