YomaBarr Normally tech death and I have rather acrimonious relationship, but with this album I could go out to a candlelit dinner.
Arrogant Bastard

Arrogant Bastard Everything in Tech Death is unrelentingly set to eleven, in fact – well, usually – a genre defining trait. Nycthemeron, however, said fuck that! Everything about this release screams tech, yet more calm, collect and with a slight progressive tinge.
Malconstruct is a hidden gem with phenomenal artwork, great/eclectic music and at NYP is, well, a no-fucking-brainer. Favorite track: Hematic Obsession.
Kenstrosity

Kenstrosity Nycthermeron is a captivating, and truly interesting, tech death album. Not everything is set to full blast, and the record is all the better for it, but technicality and progression is imbued throughout. If nothing else, this album provides an intriguing application of American technical death metal. Favorite track: Hematic Obsession.

Nycthemeron 05:36
Nycthemeron Lost inside the twisted glades of oppressive sight emerging out into the plane of the unending night Trees of blood surround the blackened city a caustic haze drives away any thought of familiarity The twilight sun reflects the ghosts of virulent days the paths you take are surrendered to the wrath of decay Blasphemous cage, your shadowed purpose eludes me Those hell wrought walls, sowed with stone and cryptic glyphs They stare into their beholder, and cast warning unto my silent approach A venomous whisper fills the air Calls of ash twist unending Sinews become still as your fears stand fulfilled Gateways part to reveal a blacked void, A breathless wind escapes and with it comes the Cimmerian incarnate Your fixation lies with its eyes poisonous and piercing, they follow your being The gears of pestilent creation turn to the hour of foreboding realization “Come forth still creature, invoke thine courage unfathomed. Thou shalt witness the life after death. Ingredere regna averni” Skeletal limbs beckon forth my wavering step, A hell forged portal awaits. Withdraw into the realm of ecliptic black. The Heavens are shrouded by archaic structures, leaving no trace of the spectral penumbra Below exist the thralls of decaying reanimate, Entwined in ritualistic necrosis. A city of tombs is all that awaits you.

The Throne of Deformity 
 His face a mask of grand countenance, Rebirthed, reborn, reformed, henceforth. Thy body burns of thousands mangled. He takes grim form of death forlorn. 
 Dystrophy be upon he who attempts to reform a deity. Knowledge amassed in lucid form, futile it is, your hopes deformed. 
 The hands of judgment perpetuate a hatred of bone. (Bone) Curses cast unto the daunted soul, intrepid in nature, shadowed by the usurper's throne. (Throne) Image most abhorred, his blackened flesh mirrors a mind unwound. 
 It refuses to cease its rule, holding the power of a demon unbound. But this King of Runes is but a piece in the game of domain. His pawns are set, you are placed in check, drinking in his poison at the brink of death. Sinking down into the sickness incurred, your fleeting thoughts of misery have now been turned. 
 Your being corrupts as hunger takes hold. You take grim form of death forlorn.

Lied of Lost Ways Languished being begins to breathe life again, The soul is severed within. Under the forest shade is where it lays. Looking for dreams to travel my way. Sifting stream draws them to me. Come within the sea of trees, And through waves you will see. I am long gone, my world was burned and turned to dust. I traveled until all light was undone, gone into the void. Mine still shone, an ember in the Dark. My rage still burning. For the eons that I wandered, They will suffer thousands more.

Hematic Obsession 
 Swinging shadow perched upon the wall Your shiver a cold oscillation in the creeping wind. 
 A swift shade you are, and before you many will fall. Yet not even yourself can you hope to defend. 
 A malignant form rests itself on your shoulders, and imparts on you a thirst. Ever gnawing at your throat, a thirst neglected takes from its host until death is incurred. 
 Its prowess derived from heart twisting spite will be cause of calamity and unending strife. Its powers will grow with each crippling strike as each step draws closer to the blackest of plights. 
 Standing still standing on their broken bones. Cleaving and consuming their pawns, (their pawns) 
 My demon hunts for blood in the wake of my foes But this loyal beast hath forsaken me unto deepening woe Your prowess derived from heart twisting spite will be cause of calamity and unending strife. Your powers will grow with each crippling strike as each step draws closer to the blackest of plights. 
 Grim is the indulgence of revenge. Quietly it creeps into your thoughts. Violently it perturbs and rots. 
 Meaningless becomes what one's will intends as the ichor of red invades, controls, and rends. Desolate is my path, watch as it endlessly extends. 
 You are a distorted creation, lingering in the dark. A violent dream is now your manifestation, Always waiting, always watching. Hunting those who have destroyed your reality. You damn them, devastate them, and take from them perpetually.

Silva Umbrae I 
 How might this one best the forest? Let us lie in wait and see 
 Questions arise from the soul that is marred. Answers can be found At the end of your scars. 
 You see yourself in the mirror of another Stare into its void. reliquary of the sight Hide from it your light 
 Mask of ego hiding your smile While putrid words seethe from your lips. I will fill your world with teeth And watch your life begin to pass. 
 Entities are seen as a dream Peaceful or harmful, remains to be seen 
 I feel myself pulling away. Slowly detaching, gradual fracturing. I feel these seams aching to mend, and conversely pulling in. 
 My mind, I am losing, In this fucking world, so confusing Keeping pace and keeping time As the trees pass me by 
 The blood reflecting mine. How many deaths are intertwined? These are no dreams, but objects of hunger Beware the Dream Eater

Stone Shadow 04:57
Stone Shadow In that room, a vacuum, a tomb. No sound can be made, no breath can be taken In her silent domain, she has awakened. Heavier and heavier my body feels to me. The bell rings three and the mind can now see. Sleeping and sleeping forever in this dream, Weeping, slowly sleeping further into this dream. Gently you pull me out over the stream, And with your touch I am free from this dream. Free me, please free me. Something is calling me from a tide of dimensions and pathways I see. Dangerous premonitions following in tow, Shivers rip me up, to and fro. Suddenly searching for my kin, As the grip of fear pulls me in. Instinctual perceptiveness of an illness so unusual. Violent pathways lead me to no where. Sleeping and sleeping forever in this dream, Weeping, slowly sleeping further into this dream. Gently you pull me out over the stream, And with your touch I am free from this dream. Drown me with my stone shadow.

Elegy of Illumination Bounding away from the silencing sleep, The visions still fresh, the wounds still sear. A shadow’s still looming near. I must find my way out of here, Nothing has become clear to me. Nothing at all. From horrors and hells no other can share, To unmatched pain and an absent stare. Where have you gone my friend, I am so alone. Abandoned me they did, left me for dead. Cast me out to rot and bleed a sea of red, All those motherfuckers did. Why did you run away from dreadful memories? They will not stop and will always find you. So seek the monolith, the city of tombs, Celestial seer ensconced in doom. Take my rage, my agony, and my despair. Take away the painful feelings ‘cause I can’t stand them. My heart is twisting, but I live on I cannot stop so crawl through the cinders. Where is my guiding light, my shining moon light? Lead me to the end that I long for. To free my soul sing slowly the elegy of illumination. Sing the elegy. The broken pieces of myself are crumbling Into my hands, through my fingers.

Datorem Mortis 
 I know this place, this place of infinite space. 
 Bound by my will, Bound by my will, By my will I'm :| Before my will, time stands still. 
 In this place visages appear, internally they peer. 
 Looking on as I drift along, sleeping through the dawn. The night soon drowns out the light and the inside space dissipates. On the precipice of this place a stranger is awaiting me. "My, what opportunity," he states. "A gift for thee, have I..." 
 Dropping into my hand, dark and pulsing, silently convulsing. Creeping up from my mind, hearing voices shrouded in black. Diving through the darkness, vision fading, fading from me. Where am I going, I cannot feel a thing. 
 The world is then The world is then split Is split in two With one part for One part for each of For each of mine Two tales inter- Two tales intertwined, Tales converging Bonds emerging Chaos consuming My whole mind 
 At the sinking cross road these journeys (will end) journeys will end (here), when two become one again. 
 The first path is a lonely path. Wandering, forever searching, endlessly reaching, desperately hoping for Solace? Comfort? Closure? Truth? 
 The second path is a blissful path. I see many places pass me by, each a monument, a standing epitaph devoid of sin. 
 Looking on as I drift along, sleeping through the dawn. The night soon drowns out the light and the inside space dissipates. The stranger sits gazing across the abyss, and with a sullen smile asks, "When did we ever exist?"

Reformation 02:58
Reformation 
 A voice flows in and quietly answers me. "We always have..." Death singing crystal trees rising above me. "My old friend..." A heart wrenching melody seeping through me. "Please come back..." Speak the name that was once given to me... "My Datorem Mortis.." 
 Datorem Mortis
