This was for random collab week 3! I decided to do something with the brilliant words from @cblack on 'Erosion'. It suggested a kind of rage against the machine vibe to me, so that was the direction I went in, but it was only when I came to record the vocal that I realised just how great the words are! So really enjoyed saying them out loud :-)
Trickling obscenity
A night-world emergency
Clouded insurgency
A stolen laugh.
Veiled absurdity
Mimicked profundity
Guiltless rotundity
A timeless drug.
Monsoon philosophy
Extreme discography
A soul in atrophy
Wicked nature.
No penchant abounds
Rapture resounds
On frightful grounds
A cunning slash.
Tears of chronology
Astral biology
Horrid necrology
Death.
We cannot ascend this nightmare-scape
We condescend with lacuna eyes
We over-portend a wrath of sky
Our fate, weird.

Tom Morello eat your heart out! That chugging riff really drives the whole arrangement along and the lyrics are excellent. I love how many words there are that I don't think I've ever heard used in a song before!

Oh yeah! This is a really solid song – great guitars, amazing lyric (I love the rhymes!). Really awesome, I love it!
@sierain Mar 2022
Definitely has RATM vibes! Great approach, great collab!

Holy crap! This was awesome! I loved what you did with my words. Thanks!

Big riffage, great playing! It really does sound like Rage Against The Machine. Nice and simple, lots of fun with the performance. Great work! Also a shout out for ‘We condescend with lacuna eyes’ which is brilliant writing :)

Killer riff - I would expect nothing less! That's an awesome tone you're getting on the guitars, muddy, but punchy, love it.
Na, you weren't having any fun during that vocal take ;)
