Decision Day

Sacred Warpath

Is there something I should know
Of the colours that you show?
I remember those words
In the back of my mind
There is an old phantom
It isn’t a secret this mind’s shrouded in history 
It isn’t a secret this mind spirals in disarray 
It isn’t a secret this mind shudders in mystery 
It isn’t a secret I find terror in memory
Come close. Don’t be afraid. 
It’s stranger than you think
Desperately opiate, weary
Feverish host to us, teary eyed
History hexes us
History hexes us
Don’t look. Don’t think 
Don’t feel. Don’t move. Don’t breathe
Don’t make a sound. It lives. It breathes
In my conscious mind
(Rosebud don’t change)
It isn’t a secret this mind’s shrouded in history 
It isn’t a secret this mind spirals in disarray 
It isn’t a secret this mind shudders in mystery 
It isn’t a secret I find terror in memory
I live and breathe again
These gory locks, don’t you dare forget them 
Don’t you dare.
Don’t you dare.
History hexes us
I breathe again
History hexes us
I live again

Polaris

Hexes Ft. Martin Grech

Broken mirror on the wall, you give no reflection of me at all 
Your wicked ways I won’t understand, intoxicating weaker men
Rusting scissors in the draw pull me closer to a life no more 
Why am I so confused, unimpressed and unamused?
No, something’s not right. Open your arms to the sky. Focus the light 
It’s a combination of numbers, oh and a set of missing keys
I’ve been painting pictures but the colours disagree
And bad things come in threes
The wind is blowing, I am falling through a hurricane 
As buildings tear up from the ground 
No way of knowing where I’m going, circulating through the wildest night
Give into these sudden urges for more
Something’s not right. Open your arms to the sky. Focus the light 
I’ve been, I’ve been painting pictures
I can’t, I just can’t taste the freedom 
Stuck in a room full of voices, oh with nobody to be seen
I can sense the danger as the colours now agree
And the picture is obscene
The wind is blowing
I am falling through a hurricane as buildings tear up from the ground 
I can’t, I just can’t taste the freedom 
I’ve been, I’ve been painting pictures
Tempted and enticed, I neglected Eden
You know that I can’t, I just can’t (can’t) taste the freedom 
Give me forgiveness, total regression, remedy 
Double the vision, triple the tension, trickery 
Total division, given destruction, synergy
Double the vision now 
Give me devotion, total remission, remedy 
Double the vision, triple the tension, trickery 
Total division, given destruction, synergy
Give me devotion now 
Give me forgiveness, total regression, remedy 
Double the vision, triple the tension, trickery 
Total division, given destruction, synergy
Double the vision, how?

HETROERTZEN - Funeral (2002 - 2018 Anniversary edition)

From Finland comes a brand new alliance who creates their musical Black Art under the name of BYTHOS! Bythos has made a pact with the infamous Terratur Possessions and will bring forth their debut album bearing the title "The Womb of Zero" to be released 24.04.2020.

Musically Bythos combines cold melodies and versatile riffs, creating rich and numinous landscapes which encounters powerful and vicious liturgies. The music supports the lyrical theme of the songs well, and the moods range from oppressive despair to ecstatic praise of the Dark Gods. The theme of the album is an interdimentional view of the underworld and its deities, emphasising strongly on the spiritual evolution to liberate the imprisoned powers, and make one with the outer Darkness. The resetting of the Divine plans through Destruction and rise above limitations of Life. Beauty in Destruction, Destruction in Beauty. A sonic interpretation of what once was and our constant path of Devolution towards the Luciferian dawn.

Bythos is:
M.S. Vocals (Behexen Official)

L.R. Drums (Horna Official)

BIOGRAPHY:

Daniel Tompkins is an award winning and innovative British singer / songwriter from Nottinghamshire in The East Midlands. More widely recognised as the singer for TesseracT with his unique live performances and unmistakable dramatic soundscapes on the highly acclaimed albums ‘One’ and 'Polaris'. Since 2009 Daniel has established himself as a highly respected vocalist with a dedicated worldwide fan base. Arguably one of the busiest collaborative vocalists, Daniel’s voice has been celebrated as one of the best in modern progressive rock and metal.
 
Daniel has released a diverse catalogue of records to date and in doing so demonstrated a natural ability to marry his distinct voice to various genres and yet remain in mesmerising control of his audience. However, much more than a recording artist, he is an accomplished performer who has earned a host of awards and honours having toured the world, sharing the stage with artists such as Iron Maiden, Gojira, Lamb of God, Devin Townsend, Meshuggah, Senses Fail, Animals As Leaders, No Use For A Name, Periphery and Protest The Hero
 
Looking to the future Daniel now balances his time between TesseracT and White Moth Black Butterfly and his various collaborations continuing to create a strong impression within the music industry. 
 
PEER AND PRESS QUOTES:

“Dan has a hell of a voice!!!” – DEVIN TOWNSEND 
 
“Check out the awesome vocals of Dan Tompkins, the man can sing YEAH!!’ – JON GOMM
 
“The dramatic soundscapes Dan Tompkins creates really are on another level, standing above the current crop of vocalists out there. Tesseract are destined for great things with a frontman leading the charge like this…one of the best vocals in modern metal” – SCUZZ TV (UK)
 
“An exceptional album from (White Moth Black Butterfly) Dan Tompkins. An absolutely essential work. Experimental, accessible and quite brilliant. This ranks high amongst this year’s progressive releases.” – Classic Rock Presents Prog Magazine
 
“There are so many musicians out there who jump from genre to genre and experiment with different kinds of sound but not all of them are able to pull it off. Out there, a bunch of them have the ability to make things so awkward, you’d just want to question what they were thinking. But then again, there are the special ones, the ones who shine in the dark and shine even brighter against the sun. The One’s who fully understand and are able to control their capabilities and of course the ones who actually know how to take things to the next level. They have this gift in whatever they do, it just works. One man who’s got this gift is UK-based vocalist, Daniel Tompkins – PULP MAGAZINE (MANILA)
