The idea for this piece is centred around the seemingly unattainable goal and a last ditch attempt to reach it. One that through determination and perseverance, ends up paying off. 

I imagined a chase on horseback, the main protagonist/hero of the story making a final escape from their nemesis, overcoming tricky obstacles before shaking off the enemy and seeing their freedom right before them. The climax of the piece representing the feeling of triumph once that finish line has been crossed. 


A bit fantastical perhaps but it was fun to write 🙂

Ultimum Conatum (Race to Liberty)

This was written during an exceptionally bad period of pain brought on by my combination of eye diseases. I just grabbed my 9-string guitar and started wailing on the thing. This is the result of that session.

You Are Not Gods

"I am trapped.

Around me I hear whispers of invisible Evil while radios and television sets deliver daily reports of despondency in clipped but sonorous soundbites. Some cower, some see no Evil and have no fear of it, but all are under the oppressive weight of Its presence, panicked by the pressure of the imposition of 'protection' . The world stands still and holds her breath.

I do not fear this Evil. A greater gluttony of misery is gained from my continued existence and so It has no taste for me. 

I fear the people It oppresses.... I am not one of them, though I once tried my hardest to conform and comply with their crippling, ever-shifting expectations and demands. I learned to fear them before the Evil came.... in Its presence they have become base and selfish and self-serving, some left without a shred of decency or compassion in their gleeful terror.

The walls are closing in on me, reflecting the glare and gleam of claustrophobic heat and crushing defeat. Outside I hear the clamour of chaos, the clash and cacophony of my hell and its inhabitants. 

I leave, risk braving open space... vultures circle around me, glaring and scornful, harrying and eager to devour. I cannot avoid them. I try to plead but am ignored. Frantic and fighting to contain my own terror and rage, I chase them away with snarls but this only feeds their malice. They caw and jeer at me with deafening ignorance and indignation.

I scuttle to sanctuary, desperate for respite... only to be chased away by rabid wolves, foaming with fury, muzzles dripping vitriol and hate, emboldened and secure with the sanctimonious sophistry of suspicion and social media.

I flee home and brace myself to bear the dense burden of deepening darkness and despair but the delirious jabbering of debauched devils, leering and cheering and jeering as I fall.... it is more than I can bear.

Release is denied. I am forbidden.

I am trapped."

Painless (PROD.ZEETERNAL x ESTOGANG)

Lyrics:
Smoke, replacing air
Fire is we fear
Sign from above
The mercy is landed upon
Our torn souls

Chorus:
A picture in a frame will remind us
Of a time
That we can never bring back
We have assured that no side will survive 
Our ego falls down the sky

It was meant to happen
We weren't born to be
Product of destruction
Followers of greed

We weren't meant to die for
Ignorance is bliss
We were meant to fight for
What we loved, not feared

Eternal Gesture (Demo)

"Trigger ready, prepare to die..."
