Vocals: Stefan Prins

Lyrics:

The flesh is ripe
and we are ready to feed
the flesh soaked in vile feces

caused by their own hand, the world became
a pot of a stew filled 
with seasoned cartilage
boil the limbs till the meat is soft
a touch will make it slither off


carving the bones clean
making a crown fit for a King
the beast will make a glorious ruler!


The lunar eclipse makes the gorging complete
the light from the rays makes it simmer with ease
of a species so intelligent
but breeds only fucking idiots
to destroy it all!

a race wired with a intelligent design by our maker
only to ruin all that is in our grasp
millenniums of development to rebuild a creature that is suppose to feel compassion
for all living beings 

carving the bones clean
making a crown fit for a King
the beast will make a glorious ruler!

The lunar eclipse makes the gorging complete
the light from the rays makes it simmer with ease
of a species so intelligent
it breeds only fucking idiots
to destroy it all!

Lyrics:

As I walk through the valley of death where my shadows lie
the lamb lays slaughtered...the skies cry

I am the bringer of time, the taker of lives  
I am the Alpha Omega, the nightmare alive

Ruler of everything      
Masochistic self proclaiming God of man  
Raze them, unto to their King    
The dogs of Eden, bite the bleeding while they burn  
Burning, Apon the Cross 
Rapture of the holy ones 
Ascention, before my gate 
You cannot pass!  
And Hell awaits!!! 

The cities start to crumble and sins washed away. The people start to pray 
a ominus Lullaby, begins to play

I am the bringer of storms, the taker of lives   
I am the Alpha Omega, the nightmare alive

Kingdoms burn by my hand, the people run like cowards
they cant accept their fate, their loss of power
when it comes to an end, they blame one another
but they will turn to ash like meat on the pyre!!

My bloodlust
My bloodlust desire!

I am the bringer of storms, the taker of lives   
I am the Alpha Omega, the nightmare alive



I am The End!

I am The Ruler

Asphodel Meadows Pt 1 - Deception

Mezzanine Floor are a 5 piece progressive metal/hard rock band from the coastal city of
Port Elizabeth, South Africa.

The band formed in 2010 with a mutual goal to create an emotive, conceptual sound. 
Drawing from a myriad of influences, the likes of, Mastodon, Tool, Opeth, Cult Of Luna,
Black Crown Initiate, Between The Buried And Me and Gojira to name a few.

"Being a conceptual and artistically vibrant metal band is something we have grown to expect from Mezzanine Floor, 
not only in their music, but in how they approach all aspects of being a band." ¬ Patrick Davidson - Metal4Africa

Following a slew of local performances and the release of their debut album "Feed The Machine", 
the band entered into the South African leg of Battle For Wacken 2014 which saw the band progessing to the finals in Johannesburg.
The following year the band was invited to perform at WinterFest 2015 alongside the finest metal heavyweights of South Africa.
In 2016, the band recorded and released their sophomore album "Architecture Of Aeons" and in conjuction with the Concertssa Mobility Fund, 
they embarked on the 1st leg of their album tour performing in the Western Cape with Johannesburg and Durban next on their radar.


"With the release of their self-produced Architecture of Aeons, the band's second release after 2013's ‘Feed the machine’, we are treated to this 
quintet's range of intricately constructed bursts of bone-crushing riffs and delightful clean sections that still manage to come across with 
the brutality of a cute panda bear ripping your face off. The band's myriads of styles take the listener's ears on an epic journey through the 
guts of a demonic beast right out the mouth to vomit on conventions." ¬ Kevin Rule - The Metalist ZA - With Dawn.
