about

Another DMN victory anthem. In this track, our "Overlord" returns again, having won the war against humanity, declaring dominion over the land and the air.

On a more personal note, it is a lyric of personal victory, having learned what was necessary to maintain my own mental health in the midst of a world that seems to revel in insanity.

This track contains a sample of "Ballet Arumbaya," a Congolese song and dance performance which became of great interest to me after doing some personal research into my DNA ancestry. Just like the North African rhythms I used in "Pierce the Earth," once I found the right speed at which to play the sample, the drums synced up perfectly with my digital beats for over 16 measures.

"Saved me from drowning/ and caused me to fly"

I can't tell you how deeply true this is. I wish I could tell you how dark it got. And how powerful it is to be free

lyrics

This is to all
The enemies inside
Your days are numbered
It's time to die
My wings are open
They lust for the sky
Gravity be damned
Its time to fly

And now I march on the sky

I dreamt of power
The Sentient arose
The honor cultivated
Razed the horror
melted the chains
Tying me to the anchor
Saved me from drowning
And caused me to fly.

And now I march on the sky

This album should be ranked very high in ranks of latest industrial albums, because it just crushes the competition. THIS is how it's done people. Menacing vocals, pounding drums and haunting electronics have no mercy on your ears and leave you with not one second of peace. Play this loud and do people around you a service. FLESH MECHANIC
