A high barred window gives wan light
That bruises as it moves west.
Cracked, crushed into dust,
My back aches with torn wings.
I've been the watery wrack
In a cracked old bowl.
The skin that cracks,
The teeth that chip.
A trip of the guts.
Sipping the limp sun’s lipids,
I watch others, small as motes,
Pressing their teeth to the bars,
(Teeth to the bars),
Like flies at horses' eyes.
I've been the watery wrack
In a cracked old bowl.
A trip of the guts,
As I slip the step.
I've been the watery wrack
In a cracked old bowl.
The skin that cracks,
The teeth that chip.
A leg, fringed and segmented,
Lacquered and thin,
Juts from me
And scratches sigils in the
Darkening dirt.
A secret war in my heart,
But the body is a betrayer.
A brittle shell,
That aches and cracks.
Others,
Flit above in the dusk.
The whirr of their wings
Sings a storm that lifts winds
The whirr of their wings sings.
A pale waxy light
roils and shifts
In the rifts of the chitin.
They don’t see me.
From the cracks in my thorax
Rises a solemn, flensed angel.
Pure, bloodless and bold,
it slips from the wreck.
Rising to the window's yawn
Cleaving the crowd,
Unfelt, unnoticed,
Breaching the bars,
It reaches the sun.

The Amenta recommends:
Akercocke, especially this album and Goat of Mendes, were constantly playing during the creation of The Amenta's Occasus. Highly Recommended!

A dark and twisted modern classic. An absolutely killer album and a big favourite amongst members of The Amenta.

As the Kingdom Drowns
by Psycroptic
Not many bands can combine groove with technicality the way our allies in Psycroptic can. An unbelievable amount of catchy riffs. Highly Recommended!

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 23 fans who also own “Plague of Locus”
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.

The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP.
