DNAcorruption it's really quite an emotional experience from start to finish, as other posters have already said, the lyrics are poetic; so much so that I was able to find metaphorical connections to other areas in my life which just added to the depth and passion of the record. the technicality is astounding also, very talented musicians indeed. a must have for the collection! I can see myself revisiting this one over and over again. - let's hope for a cassette run of 'The Transformation Room 🤞🤘 Favorite track: The Red Forest.

Reaching through the expanse of space Shapeshifter huntsman Of heaven’s light that never was Bodies crawl to breathe life Pull me above and through Structures of time eternal Pull me apart, Let woe weep Below waters drown before the fire Corridors of blood turn electric at night Oblivion becomes my guide Let me live within my empty eyes Melting stars fuel reaction across the skies, Bringer of death. Son of Chernobog, drag me through forests of weeds and wires Machinery impartial to suffering Atop atomic throne Exposed to corium mass Matter replaced by toxins Screams from centuries lead the way Decay is now our doctrine Constellations of monastic silence The burial shroud has now been donned The burial shroud has now been donned
2.
Ghostly smoke, coiling snakes, and sacred stones Ancient gates passed down in code Glowing through myths untold Fuel burns flesh to bone, reveals inside a molten core There is no life when all is dark There is no life upon the stars Serpent of heresy unlock Solitude Come forth and guide Between shadows' nighttime sun To curse my soul Nuclear dreams that now are dark Bury the screams that respond Serpent of heresy unlock solitude Come forth and guide Travel the causeway archaic Bow to the overlord, cosmic lights flicker The console of horror the starway eternal Bow to the overlord, cosmic lights flicker The console of horror the starway eternal

Skeletons 04:22
Glowing lights from the eyes of neon wolves What walks now are skeletons upon this wintry land Inhale noxious air, they crumble before they can stand Too far from earth, your last spectral verse cursed A land made foreign By the onset of darkness The horror will come again To shriek its ghastly tune (repeat) A throne enshrined in skulls the oracles foretold This forced exodus. the blackness calling for all The remains of man as lifeless as I am Too far from earth, your last spectral verse cursed A land made foreign By the onset of darkness The horror will come again To shriek its ghastly tune (repeat)

...and drift beyond caverns once built by gods Drip into pools that fill our jaws The haunting chords from blood red eyes Pelting stones against blood-soaked furs Ravens and castle claws Venture into shrouded tombs Igniting the room. Inmates melt and spill No skin, flesh or muscles remain Give way to the flame Cower... cower beneath the console The console of horror A prisoner to the living, to the dead Once the body is exhumed it will still be missing the head Diving into the brain of the dead ...and drift beyond caverns once built by gods Drip into pools that fill our jaws The haunting chords from blood red eyes Pelting stones against blood-soaked furs Fused together we press onward towards ritual ruin Diving into the brain of the dead (repeat) ...and drift beyond caverns once built by gods Drip into pools that fill our jaws
5.
Lightning flashed against the sky I heard the screams from doors nearby And the chaos from machines inside From men about to die Outside I could smell the air Lifeless smoke from the electric chair And the ashes floating everywhere Above the bridge of death You'll never Stop the sun from turning us to dust With dead among us This forest can only hide creatures that weren't burned inside A refuge here for their ghostly sight Beneath this star-lit night The moment comes for my life to end To the rocks and earth where I'll descend and feed the serpents with my decay and the ravens overhead You couldn't stop the sun from turning us to dust In the red forest You wouldn't see the sun burn us all to ash You couldn't stop the sun from turning us to dust

The Descent 04:49
Into atmosphere Roots tangled in circuitry here Searching the skies for gods the gates have been lost I will return Vapors in flames, I must burn Leap into boiling earth Thoughts return to the universe My final fall Causeway lights my descent Pulls me, intensifies The mission has been finalized
8.
A mausoleum to house the horrors A Million screaming in the mega tomb With black rain and beads of blood Through flames I make my return Upon a hill that casts shadows Serpents made of silver beneath a sheer of ice A symbol of sacrifice A crown jeweled in gems Thawed by atomic light Upon a hill that casts shadows Alone, the craft has fused Its wings through atmosphere I fall upon gravestones Twisted, tangled, broken bones Upon a hill that casts shadows Awakened I've become a path for phantoms Awakened I've become a path for phantoms (repeat) Serpents made of silver beneath a sheer of ice Serpents made of silver, a symbol of sacrifice

about

In 1986, Chernobyl Powerplant operator Valentina Tereshnikov discovered a portalway behind one of the consoles in Reactor 4. The portal granted Valentina a chance to uncover the gods and angels purported to be hidden behind the ancient gates of our known solar system. On April 26th 1986, while still among the cosmos, Valentina's portalway was abruptly closed during the meltdown of Chernobyl's Reactor 4 back on earth.
