Intro

AXAXC – NO RESPITE
Release Type: Cinematic Deathcore | Sludgecore | Philosophical Screamo
Core Themes: Power • War • Brutality • Awakening • Vengeance • No Mercy

NO RESPITE is AXAXC’s war scripture—ten tracks forged in pressure, pain, and philosophy.
This is not a cry for help.
This is a declaration of war.

Brutal sludgecore vocals, ambient spoken-word sermons, cinematic breakdowns, and whispered confessions come together to form a single message:
If they showed you no mercy... you show them no respite.

You will rise. You will fight. And when they beg—
You will not kneel.

“When the foe kneels and begs for peace… show them no respite.”

🩸 TRACKLIST:
Get it Done – War chant of will. Brutal motivation in the face of collapse.

Smoking Kills – Spoken word sermon of nihilism and addictive fatalism.

Compassionate Theory – The illusion of empathy exposed through screamo poetry.

Love Them Not (KAT Where the Lost Ones Prowl Version Remix) – Ethereal darkness meets guttural duality.

No Respite – Sludgecore anthem. Vengeance without mercy.

Slumber – The awakening of the warrior. Ambient screamballad rebirth.

Get it Done (Requiem Aeternal) – A death-hymn reprise. Softer. Darker. Final.

No Respite [Requiem Aeternal] – Whispered vengeance. Spoken chaos.

Compassionate Theory (Requiem Aeternal) – Ambient desolation. Requiem for empathy.

There is No Mercy, No Peace in Surrender – Final statement. One line repeated. One truth revealed.

+ Other versions and nuggies!

🕯️ Listen if you’ve ever:
Felt rage rise when silence swallowed you

Survived betrayal and wore it like armor

Loved someone so much it ruined your peace

Awoken to realize you were built for war

Distort. Distrust. Destroy.

No Respite [HELL Version]

This was another song I wrote during those same emotionally turbulent high school years in the mid-1980s. If "Breakin' My Heart" was about the immediate shock of betrayal, "Shattered Illusions" dug deeper into the aftermath - that hollow feeling when you realize everything you believed about someone was built on lies.

The opening line "Midnight shadows, a phone that won't ring" perfectly captured those sleepless nights, waiting for someone who was never going to call. I remember writing that verse thinking about how naive I'd been, how I'd "built castles on empty words." The metaphor felt so real to me then - all those promises and dreams just crumbling down.

What I'm proud of in this song is the pre-chorus structure. Adding that extra emotional build before hitting the chorus made the impact stronger. "Shattering my world" felt like the perfect phrase to describe how completely someone could destroy your sense of reality when you're seventeen and think you know everything about love.

The bridge represents growth - moving from victim to survivor. "I'm done with your lies, done with the pain" shows that progression from hurt to empowerment that I was learning to navigate as a teenager. The outro ties it all together with "Your love was fiction, but I'll rise from this fall" - probably the most mature line I wrote at that age.

Like my other lyrics from that time, this sat dormant for decades until AI technology gave me the opportunity to finally hear these words with music. There's something magical about bringing teenage angst full circle with today's creative tools. The song now has that dramatic, emotional sound that matches the intensity I felt when I first wrote these words.
