Stagnant Perceptions

Jordan Vauvert Cara Neir à ses débuts, c'est quand même quelque chose ! Chris et Garry nous servent un blackened crust très énervé : le duo enchaîne les claques survitaminées avec des pistes comme "The Bridge of Despise" ou "The Apothecary" qui sont d'une violence franchement jouissive. Malgré tout, le groupe ne se contente pas de cette recette puisqu'ils cessent pas d'impressionner par leur virtuosité. Garry est phénoménal à la batterie, partant presque dans des improvisations. Et puis cette conclusion !! Favorite track: Amaranthine Figures.

MindOverFour This seems like the album where Cara Neir first really started to find their style. I picked track 2 as my favorite because there is some killer Voivod-esque riffing going on in it. In fact all the songs have a sort blackened punk, speed metal vibe that reminds me of the first two Voivod records. I know that Cara Neir is, in many ways, fairly far removed from "War and Pain" and "Rrroooaaarrr"--but still, that is what it reminds me of. Favorite track: Return to Torquemada.

A design with immortality in mind This deceitful ploy of mine Let the algorithm enslave you and betray the resistance Will you succumb? Recanting my vision of kindness The dynasty crumbles fast Boycott the lies of the Gods to sear the truth into those

Jump it's the last ride out of here Caught a train been on the tracks since when Rods in place, hiding from the fatigue Please don't catch, I need a drink to fall back on Ride beside your kind and die Ride alongside withered minds It's not enough to love; you've got to die alone Hold the fort, it's a siege! Been on the tracks since the break of dawn but I can't come to I am saved! I am saved!

"Destroy their base then drag on" And our own men shot upon us! Uaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!?!?!?! With straight faces!? So we're going to absolutely kill them once they come back and try to finish us off, yeah fuckin' right Not in a million years are those jerkoffs gonna get away with this
4.
Bitter... Bitter... bitter ideas that twist my concept of faith Breach through a life already so taint sins cut forth from a skin so tender NO The abyss stares back into the youth, so that he becomes black nothing
5.
A burning of books, a collapse of words The worst has yet to come A dominant form unknown to us rising Factions from new wounds act once, then we're crushed under foot "I can breathe air, I can smell lies, I hear all sounds just like you The difference lies in the bridge lined with despise" Worming their way into our every day life, the difference lies in the bridge lined Despite our greatest efforts and lies, a difference lies in the bridge lined Fight the water that's left by the flies, they stem from the bridge of despise
6.
You won't see their ways but you will feel the flinching hour as the cosmic power sears through your brain and to another realm They seek the wanted ones who possess another way They come from another life from another tomb to take control of our ways Demands from species unknown were met for bartered mercy See that you cannot stop this, and learn how weak you are You won't see their ways but you will feel the flinching hour as the cosmic power sears through your brain and to another realm They seek, they wait.. then feed upon my family Scouring every little piece of flesh off my bones But I won't die. I won't die Sink deep inside This curtain, this shell, this rotten comfort is my escape I see now why we weren't meant to lead I see now why all things must die. Humans first - head in first
7.
Criminal minds don't think alike I traded mine in for this wasted high I can't see the windows fogged obscured the path ahead Alone on this prairie I can smell the stench of what's in front Prepare my body for what's in front The beautiful white gleaming sensation once desired I seek another way... off this plane
8.
Killing the demons, a typical spell Proportions of death in time I will tell Running the gamut this hell has begun and with it I fall Telepathy wins all! Telepathy wins all! Senseless devotions, your soul is mine worth nothing to no one your world is benign If given the chance, if given the smarts I'd climb down your throat and rip you apart So we begin Omega storm! Omega storm! Enchant their rights! Enchant their rights!
9.
Believe what you pay for, 's what they say But tomorrow I will bring proof that life still exists (outside of this shell) I can view the solemn grow, where they keep the bloodstones, and they torture Certain visions of my new castle hidden 'neath a mound of ashes They all coveted a cycle of past plagues Real death is what I'm searching for tonight Reaching out for new life Beneath my feet, an area that seems fit for sleeping

My Apology 06:13
Sorry for those awful things I did. Staring into the sun, I'll try to take them back Turns out I don't even exist anymore Beast of nocturnal beatings, I am Bearing scars from another one While I battle my own twisted thoughts, I watch their actions take on godless forms "Kill the young, steal their goods before they swarm Shatter doors, break their soul and reap reward" I cannot see this night ending well There is no order and all else is in hell Beast of nocturnal beatings Brings forth light to the nether one Bleed, bleed, bleed! Bleed for the right reasons Plant your teeth into the needs of those The only way I can replenish myself (A pure nothing... Pure...)
11.
Not Enough 07:37
Another stray has been estranged. Another broken one bows to forces of war Wreckless bodies become ashes and one with our ground while I suffocate Pour sanguine waxes on top of their corpses Diminish their lifelines, extinguish the torches "What are those goddamn bottles for?" The wretched witchblood at our door!" We see greed! We see greed And the evil comes through Before the archangels saw that she was a goddamn whore, I poisoned them all. I poisoned them all. I killed the village for her. I left the planet for her Destroyed myself for nothing and burned as a burden of Earth
