We Believe

Affliction. Mistakes deny
Punishment aversion another lie
Obedience is what we try
Inner conflict is what we have inside

We believe. A subtle truth in what they say
Disbelief. Nothing's left. Nothing's right
We deceive. Another day. Another fight
Talk to me. Tell me what you really mean

System. Is what we've left behind
Indifference is what they want. You decide
Another view. Another time
Absence from our state of mind

Every day. Every night
It always ends the same. That's right
Eventually my friend things end
Don't you worry. Don't you fret

We Believe

"Inside a cage of sound,  Cold waves of electronics are juxtaposed against voices that seep through cracks in the walls of machinery and wires. Lyrics dart out in bullets from soundscapes peppered in sharp vocals and sound bites. A viola plays in the distance, giving life to this inorganic mass... 
Such is the imagery that spawns Attrition, who, with its marriage of the classic and modern, has brought to music the equivalent of a surrealist painting. From its earlier sparse and stark soundscapes, to a more expansive palette of orchestral work, Attrition has successfully melded several genres into one. The music flows - from gothic to industrial to experimental to classical - so smoothly, they might as well be making their own category. 
With more than twenty albums of constant variety, and an ever-expanding sound, they remain one of music's darker and fascinating lights."
