activa44 I heard Bloodgate first, so I already mentioned how great this band is from a musical standpoint. They perfected their sound with their next release but all the songs were already in here.

Then I'll mention how smartly written the lyrics are... umpteenth evidence of how great this band really is (because lyrics are also very important in music, but they get overlooked too often... not by these folks, though)!

Prepare to delve into the despair and decay of modern day societies. Favorite track: Sentient Divide.

Coral Rosehill The core of Sentient Divide is in the devestation they express at the reality that we live in an ideological hellscape, which touts pride over empathy and reckless ignorance over critical thought. Sentient Divide lashes out against the voices deafening the voiceless. Favorite track: Conscious Enervation.

Tyler Brooks Incantation-y death metal with heavy doses of riff heavy black metal. I didn't think any album would come close to surprising me as much as the new Unaussprechlichen Kulten did, but this comes damn close. Bloodgate has some of my favorite riffs of the year. Favorite track: Bloodgate.

Bloodgate 04:57
Entrance of death Those without a voice Led to slaughter As those with voices Condemn with pride The gate stays closed Scarred and Bloody And all understand The horrors within Easily accepted The denial of sentience A divide of the soul The with and without The gate stays closed Scarred and Bloody And all understand the horrors within This shadow will be our demise.

Narcissistic bigots Perpetuate The fabricated chasm Between beast and man Claim their lives Beneath ours Inferiority’ The crux Of this Wretched lie Lesser Beings Measured Capacity Chemically fed To fit and ideal Dark Survival Savage lives No action unique Nothing human.

Blood is on the wall I see the gate All the sign present Ignore the consequences The path of least resistance Molds a bitter husk Choosing not to feel I turn my head With full understanding The shame that I bear I keep I choose every day Remove all this feeling Take all this guilt Extract all shame For I am just one. Rage and Sorrow Death and Decay All ears hear All eyes turn away

Eminent manipulation In life and death Eternal solitude To opportunistic men Misogynists by nature Sons of the temple Condemn with pride and writhe with hate Baptism of the dead Reaping of souls. Vile abusers never question their purity Seeking dominion beyond this plane Misusing power Exploiting dominion Exalted villains Preach spirit prisons To trap the weak Coerce the corrupt Burning on Pyres Look to the sky Locked in the vault Tombs of the living Eminent manipulation In life and death Eternal solitude To opportunistic men Misogynists by nature Sons of the temple Condemn with pride and writhe with hate Baptism of the dead Reaping of souls. Exalted villains Preach spirit prisons To trap the weak Coerce the corrupt Burning on Pyres Look to the sky Locked in the vault Tombs of the living Vile abusers never question their purity Seeking dominion beyond this plane Misusing power Exploiting dominion Raze their temples

Beaten. Dazed. Defeat. Accepted. I lay my head down to offer my body To the immediate need The victorious demagogue Embrace our torture Accept the rape For you shall benefit Why sacrifice so needlessly?

Gratify 04:30
Plagued by intention Strangled by lack of action Entropy Spiraling Your world breeds decay Purposefully poisoned Proving a point False construct Another’s requiem I am guilty I am wretched I reap reward From another’s suffering Marginal weakness My social platform Guise of progress Redirect their cause Your silence A death sentence The gun And the grave Entropy Glutony Feasting On the weak I am guilty I am wretched.

Bodies Bvrn 05:00
Crushing, Dieing, No Escape The caged being, a would-be husk. Emotions, aspirations completely disregarded. This purposeless act, leading life to lifelessness, the ultimate disrespect to the absolution of being. The simplest of crimes, when unaware and unempathetic. Repercussions bounding until we reach the breaking point. Avoiding the fact that actions cannot be undone. Losing the battle of self control and self determination. And so Bodies Bvrn, and so limbs are hacked away. Massive industries, Exploitation on grand scales. These horrors can never be undone.

about

"Blending black and death metal to good effect, Sentient Divide deliver a mix of plague-ridden gloom and carnivorous ferocity, with riffs that are sinister and seething, pestilential and swarming, bone-breaking and murderous. And as the riffs morph among these vicious forms, the tempo and rhythms change as well — blasting and stalking and bounding about in crusty romps.

Enhanced by eerie, spectral guitar vibrations, undergirded by deep, grinding bass notes, and featuring a tandem of abyssal roars and goblin shrieks, the songs generate an atmosphere of arcane horror. It’s chilling music that also buries its grasping, gory hooks deep in the listener’s head." - No Clean Singing
