lyrics

Four point six billion years
Crafting, shaping, molding
The final inheritors of God’s land poised to bring it to an end
The extinct and the living and all to come bow in the wake of the new gods
With a hunger billions strong they spread out and conquer
And no other species is safe
The prophecy comes true, made in God’s image
The perfect race perfected at last
The planet now is doomed
As they feed, expand, and they wreck
Lets celebrate because evolution has worked
The final form has come to be
Fill the lands from end to end
Kill everything and drain the sea
Plague runs rampant through populations but constantly defeated by their science
The heavens send disasters, viruses and cancer
But no amount of rain could douse this fire
The blinded masses wonder of the apocalypse
But they do not realize their power end
Without regard for natural cycles or gradual depletion we’re bleeding the
planet dry
Plague runs rampant through populations but constantly defeated by their science
The heavens send disasters viruses and cancer
But no amount of rain could douse this fire
Lets celebrate because evolution has worked
The final form has come to be
Fill the lands from end to end
Kill everything and drain the sea
A culmination of liars and cut throats rule the world as masses of morons grow fat and tired
Without regard for natural cycles or gradual depletion we’re bleeding the planet dry
Bear upon your back responsibility for this devastation
Created in your image?
A little too well, too precise
Survival of the fittest is no more
Only the fit are alive
Witness perfection, masters of famine, pestilence and science
Go forth my sons
Put this world out of its misery
Tear it down
Wear down the mountains and build up the valleys
Push your boundaries further and further and further; end to end
Then build up
Grow tall and expand into heaven
Dominate that too
Strip it all away
Leave it bare
Leave this world hollow
Expand and then do it again

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

This is probably the most melodic Death Metal album I've ever heard. Not really in the Melo-Death sense tho. It follows more progressive and technical flavors with its riffs and leads. But the riffs are often big and memorable as well as the solo's. There is just as much melody and bending as any shred therein. One of the most memorable Death Metal albums of all time! They've crafted all the parts in equal measure for a complete and exciting Metal work. Salami Dick Death

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso

Archspire is wholly unique for their ability to write music that is this insanely technical, but also actually catchy and memorable. Absolutely one-of-a-kind band. Kadin Wisniewski
