An eternal spring of hopeless grief surges.
Floods the surface of my conscious being.
In this barren land it appears the one relief.
Although it's from a place where nothing nourishes.
Haunted by ghosts of lives passed by.
Every tower of hope, crumbling.
Every field of love, withering.
What fruit not spoiled by spite remains?
What love destroyed by undue wrath?
After decades have passed,
By this foul water sustained.
The harm, irreversible.

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
