lyrics

This wicked tongue it flicks along these shattered, broken ivories
I am the one who came unbound, I fought the time that’s given to me
This gaping maw becomes a wound
I gnaw this flaking, pustule flesh
My body shakes as this disease consumes my mind, my soul, my breath

These sights
are more horrific than my dreams
This night
I learn the pointlessness of vanity
My father’s blood betrays me
I don’t know why I fought
This rot consumes and flays me
Cursed reclamation of what's lost

A blackened mass begins to spread, it grows too deep to be excised
My skin, it bleeds and breaks away, revealing secrets locked inside
Festering rot endlessly spreads
Indifference towards my fated plight
Osseous discharge grants this broken husk a fleeting respite

I BECOME FORMLESS
ICON OF DISEASE
I BECOME FORMLESS
ICON OF DISEASE

The sinews grasp at what they can
like branches reaching for the sun
Red tendrils wrap around ossein clefts
As dermis comes undone
A bloody mass congeals and rusts
Breaking away fragments of flesh
Corruption gains control as it consumes my mind, my soul, my breath

I become formless
Icon of disease
Corruption’s indifference
made pointless
my vanity
I am the abscess
secreting vile miseries
These autocannibalistic urges sustain my entropy

These sights
are more horrific than my dreams
This night
I learn the pointlessness of vanity
My father’s blood betrays me
I don’t know why I fought
This rot consumes and flays me
Cursed reclamation of what's lost

Les terres brulées
by Svart Crown

Svart Crown has been an influence for many years, but this EP may have been their opus. An incredible swan song from a phenomenal band. Sublation

To Overtake | To Overcome
by Voidsphere

VoidSphere are inspiring because their composition and production create an atmosphere unlike anything else. Spacious and haunting, they forge a unique space for the listener to dream. Sublation

Totenritual
by Belphegor

Belphegor is a constant influence on our music, but for On the Advancement of Decay we wanted to channel it even further and really highlight the blackened facets of our sound. Sublation
