Groupthink

Inside the stones
The ceremony begins
Where groupthink starts
And where it ends
Cloaked figures outside
Of time and space
Summon the Light-Bringer
To decide the human's fate
Thoughtlessness consuming
Participant will
Practitioner ascending
Permitted truth seals
Everything permitted

Temple

Where the trees are dark
And the creatures scatter
There's a clearing in the, In the field
Empty paradise
Silence shatters
Deather enters from the preachers will
They called on the lord
But Lucifer answered
Your messiah was your cancer
The people's temple
Now the peoples grave
All together we must, must behave
Pilgrims from homeland, won't you lay down and die
Your god is here, for he is I.

One Eyed King
18:44

Shiva fell upon the land
The kingdom became void
Heavenly sovereign now destroyed
Souls of men destitute
Growing wealth of the flesh
Minds like fruit harvest ripe and fresh
The mountain birthed a mystic
Soothsayer without truth
Aum and enchanter introduced
White robes give human relief
Christ-like power of peace
Through the battle the chosen sleep
Wade through aether
All that is and is not
Deceipt is power when the world craves lies
The blind will crown the man with one eye
Worry no more your mind is not your own
Masses gather on the sun
Fire of thought scorched Gaia
Above embers floats messiah
In the shadows plans take form
The crown rests upon horns
Through bloodshed, we will be reborn
The air is thick underground
With death breathing plumes
Apocalypse begins to bloom
There is a man with one eye
In the land of the blind
To be hung for ghastly crimes
Wade through aether
All that is and is not
Deceit is power when the world craves lies
The blind will crown the man with one eye
Worry no more your mind is not your own

Prophecy self-fulfilled
The world must know of the seven seals
Babylon's final breath
Ten horned beast from the depths
Iron rolls to the gate
Modern spears the harlot's bait
Build the pyre the time is nigh
Lead by death and the serpent's lies
Dante's dream meets the flesh
A pious man christened Koresh
Evil sat not outside
But in front of fearful eyes

The Son of Man

Empty heads the devil's tools
Witchy marks the sign of fools
Call your children home
They've already gone
I have collected
Broken discarded things
Pieced together in the image of me
A mirror reflecting a mirror reflecting a mirror
Staring for eternity
Open your mind
Lend me your tongue
And I will speak unspeakable dreams
Go and seek
All the seekers
Seeking the seekers, and bring them back to me
The devil comes
To do his work
Listen close
From his perch
Empty minds
Come down the hall
All they hear
The blackbird's call

Supplication of Flame
06:46
|
|||
|
Embodiment of Prometheus's gift
Their veins held fire from a devious shift
In which the world could no longer be their home
From tabernacle two profits arise
Adorned in gold from prophets disguised
As the will of the solar head god-king
And the knights of the temple came to save the town
Furry masked as help as they burned it all down
And the people all knelt
In supplication of flame
Cover their heads with crimson crosses
Eyes as hallow as hymns and coffins
The child killed, the table sat, the lords will done
All together they travel alone
With flames so bright their chapel dethroned
All the power of god and gave it to man
And the knights of the temple brought silver and wine
The music played and the chapel bells chimed
And the people all danced
In supplication of flame
And they knights of the temple spoke in morbid rhymes
God has commanded you lay down your life
And the people all burned
In supplication of flames

TELAH

|
The father flies in a chariot built for gods
And from the sky fire burns down the great facade
And angels ride in giant crafts made of stone
And humans die but the chosen ones ascend on their own
To paradise among the cosmos
An ancient war waged against the minds of men
Forgotten lore bathed in acts of blood and sin
An endless shore where thoughts begin to crash like waves
And engines roar as conquerers sing the praise
Of paradise among the cosmos
Hidden masters holding the bow
My body is thy quiver
Great release towards god's great stone
Bone and flesh always wither
Knowledge is the fletching
My mind is not my own
My soul is an arrow
Flying through the unknown
You have now entered the evolutionary level above human
Ahhhh

It's only four tracks, yes, but it's four tracks of great cosmic psychedelia. Here's my full review - https://www.7thlevelmusic.com/?p=12710

Utterly hypnotic, heavy, and ethereal beyond what I can aptly describe here. It'll take you careening down a kaleidoscopic wormhole of audial bliss.

The Burden of Restlessness
by King Buffalo
supported by 58 fans who also own “Groupthink”
Very dark and melancholic and also a progressive album. Beat and atmosphere remind me strongly of TOOL.
