Khemmis - "Living Pyre" (video)
There’s nothing left to give
Nothing to rake through coals
That I can use to keep the flame alive inside
Outside the storm rages
Injustice, bold and ageless
While I’m alone in the cold
I’m drowning in a mind that’s always caving in
The rivers rise and surround me
My body is a frame that’s weighed down by its sins
An anchor cold and leaden
We’re burning in the firelight - a living pyre
I can’t just cast aside
The burden in my heart
With no relief in sight
I’m being torn apart
We are merely vessels
Torn from the empty bliss of night
Unhallowed by design
Into the blinding light of life
Wrought in the image of god
We have to learn to find a way
To transcend far beyond
The tomb from which we came to be
Where we’re interred forever
I’m drowning in a mind that’s always caving in
The rivers rise and surround me
My body is a frame that’s weighed down by its sins
An anchor cold and leaden

Τον τέταρτο στουντιακό "ολοκληρωμένο" τους δίσκο είναι έτοιμοι να κυκλοφορήσουν οι Khemmis. Φέρει τον τίτλο "Deceiver" κι αναμένεται στα μέσα του τελευταίου φθινοπωρινού μήνα...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Restlessly awakening from the depths of a feverish slumber, doomed heavy metal masters Khemmis return to reveal their fourth full length studio album, Deceiver, arriving via Nuclear Blast Records in November 2021.
Six tracks of desolate, soul-awakening heaviness encapsulate a project that has been nearly three years in the making. With a title that reflects the internal struggles that many of us battle in our daily lives, Deceiver is a ferociously honest and appetizingly raw piece of musical artistry.»
Khemmis: «Thematically, all of the songs are about the many ways that we are tricked into believing these stories about ourselves–that we are broken, that we are not good enough, thatour genetics determine our fate.
This title is the label that we put on our minds as a force that tricks us into believing these stories,” describes vocalist and guitarist Phil Pendergast. “The record’s lyrical trajectory is similar to Dante’s descent into an Inferno of his own making. It is our darkest album to date.»
