The House Primordial

Jordan Vauvert Thou qualifie The House Primordial comme un E.P. mais, du haut de ses quasi quarante minutes, il ne s'éloigne pas tant que ça de l'album en tant que tel et il en a l'intensité en tout cas. Le groupe de Baton Rouge change aussi d'approche : s'ils nous ont habitué au carnage de sludge nihiliste, The House Primordial est un moment d'horreur — je crois même entendre dans "Premonition" et "Malignant Horror" une déformation du thème de Shining. Le tempo est plus lent, gluant, mortel : un charnier. Favorite track: Malignant Horror.

Premonition 03:19
Persistent imprint of the future, that place I have known forever, of the pitched void that dwells inside stones--sunless, starless, solid nothingness.

Alone in the house primordial, we persist through endless victories.

6.
Ceaseless nemesis. None more intimate. I know you as the boot-print knows the heel.

8.
Dry and flaccid world devoid of taste. The maggot writhing in the rotting skull of language.

Birthright 03:23
10.
Discard the pallid mask. Reveal not carnal wreckage, but the wan smile of a friendly face. And in that empty lifeless stare see my own callous disregard. Reflected back a thousand fold.

about

On my knees, I offer you that which flies in me. My face to earth, I shout your glory to the heavens. In so surrendering do I conquer. In so yielding do I seize.

The first in a series of EPs leading up to the Magus "full length."
