Guilt and His Reflection

trainh13 My favorite Cara Neir project. A strange amalgamation of post-rock, black metal, and grind it's catchy, melodic, and uncompromising. The Wildspeaker side is just suffocating too. Favorite track: Clinging to My Last Bit of Sanity.

MindOverFour You get 7 tracks from Cara Neir and 6 tracks from Wildspeaker. The Cara Neir are really interesting: the distortion of the guitars has been cut back, leaving a very clean, art-rock sound. I do not know if this is their future direction (because they are often changing), but I sure hope so. Wildspeaker is some fairly nasty blackened, crusty, punky metal. Favorite track from Wildspeaker is "Hunt the Weak". Favorite track: Clinging to My Last Bit of Sanity.

Halo Of Grey 04:18
every last one of us has a conscious but the intended code is all that keeps the darkness in check how terrifying would it be for that to be stripped away what is this backwards reformation this sordid solitude, a twisted failsafe where do we stop now? there's no new kingdom halos of grey - i can't be saved, but please let me savor this day
2.
my left brain's no right brain but right helps the left and this craft here is mutual you exist because i say and my brains, well they split long ago so as you see where we are now should explain much you don't think it so and i need you to believe this could save me, soak my sanity in blessing and recognition, mine ....what am i saying, this ends today TODAY TODAY
3.
these stained grey bones, their image stapled to his skull there was no acclimating to this was it the taste that brought insanity? or being forced to believe this was the only choice it's happened to them all starving to death to keep this in check never free to simplicity again this opus of sickness reigns high as the last strings pop
4.
fifth ticket to sit here and suffer and i'm further down the line sat here long enough to think that now i'll be fine but somehow i've fooled you all when all i wanted was my own dissatisfaction so what are these times of torture but jaded fragments of vice and life what are these ideas of failure kept holstered by my side? i open doors to the ever-flourishing voids in my soul even worse is that i have let people learn to care for them

Ego Eats Man 02:09
garry: I just crawled out of a grave that I helped make. Now I'm wearing a cape without a crusade. How silly do I look? Just look at my face. I may smile a lot, but wait till you see what's underneath chris: stars will die and trees will burn and i'll still be here grounded with stop signs garry: I just walked out of a cave, so dark and dank. Now I'm driving a car on an empty tank. How the fuck does that work? Just look at the flames. I may die a lot, but at least I have lived. Over and over again. chris: nameless lands and faceless men, the chapel stands up straight but hasn't a voice since nobody's let in over drained waters leaving dry and grainy earth the smoke consciously drifts towards lung to decay

smiles received without ever turning the light back on trial/deceit, why does everyone think that i am just so dumb transparent life i tied back for you, i cannot sustain the blank page hallowed in me, in darkness i pray stricken down by the most ungrateful masters led to believe i am simply a bastard led to believe that there's something of worth in me dead from disease after you took what's worth from me sleeping in hell in quiet pain while i plead for thee slaving, i crave to find the hole from which you came surely enough you were never born this way this is the first night of many i've spent insane black heart that fissured you took it as a vacancy to install the demons that plague my memory blackness i saw, the night you spit the blame on me is this all that they do? miles away and left in purple waves to faulter will you open the doors or close them for the better? will you shed your skin in Fall and leave forever? let us not speak but flow with discrepancy we cannot share this world, it wasn't meant for me i thought of the blood and poisonous treachery begone, of this plane

about
