So calm, so cold / I’ve caught my breath / I’ve given in / Deep beneath the mask I’ve worn since I came into this world / Stirs something primal / Slowly released by fevered incision / Now internalize this repetition to escape and transcend / The clouds have rolled back / The stars have fallen into the ocean / I can no longer see beyond all these lacerations / Impermanence flees to be replaced by an unobstructed hatred / For the first time, I see with no face / I am the haunting echo of a silent universe / A whisper in the wind / The dysphoria within / Welcoming the Hunter’s Mask / I close my eyes for the last time / Though cold and motionless, I’m still inside / And I fear I’m not alone / Will you guide me? / Even a shattered mirror shimmers in the moonlight / You’ll take me to the ark

The vocals are amazing in both Bereft and Augury + their buildup tracks right before. It's too bad that the instrumental version of this album isn't the actual instruments, so I can't rip them on Audacity. lesserknownsounds

I like the fact that this guy is not in “omg I love djent so much I’ll only let *that* express in my songs” mode. With his friends he crafts thoughtful and diverse songs which can be either playful or touching. Alice M.

I made love with my girlfriend so many times on this album. It is incredible. The songs are so beautiful and the rythm so well coordinated for this kind of moment... Anyway, always good to listen to it in the bus too Faugus
