Heat from within, gloom kindles the fire.
It spills out & covers the light.
Meaning, loss, persistence of might.
Piles cannot oppose the density.
The wicked circle faces its destiny,
trembles anxiously, dying defying.
The tar flows down the valley.
Towards perdition, withstand ignition.
Ritual of fire, dust and pyre.
Shredded bones in vortex of contempt.
Lurking demons above the dead.
Scattered stones like stars
mark the way in the crust.
The tongues of flame lash and burn.
Powers and spells, holds back the gates.
The Petrified substance smokes and blurs.
Heat from within, gloom kindles the fire.
It spills out & covers the light.
Meaning, loss, persistence of might.
Piles cannot oppose the density.
The wicked circle faces its destiny,
trembles anxiously, dying defying.
The tar flows down the valley.
Towards perdition, withstand ignition.
Ritual of fire, dust and pyre.
Which way I fly is hell; myself am hell; And in the lowest deep a lower deep, Still threat’ning to devour me, opens wide, To which the hell I suffer seems a heaven.

Music and Lyrics by Daniel Kesler
Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore Jacob Ballance
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
If you told me that Dischordia shared members with Dysrhythmia I'd believe it without checking. Angular, dissonant constructions that give no fucks about human enjoyment. I need more. Ghuughra
