flightoficarus (Metal Trenches)
It's a blistering mess of maniacal, blackened destruction that is clearly not for the faint of heart. The vocals cut in jagged formation like a thousand shards of glass, and the guitars possess the welcoming qualities of a bad acid trip in a torture dungeon. That's not even to mention the insanely sporadic and always impressive drumming.

I STAND BEFORE YOU NOW
A PRYING MASS OF ASSEMBLED MINDS
THE AGGREGATE NEURAL NETWORK
THAT PROBES WITH COLLECTIVE PURPOSE
A COLONY OF VORACIOUS EGOS
PRIMED TO RECEIVE MY WORDS
I HAVE MERGED THE DISCIPLINES
AND ARTICULATED THEIR EXPRESSIONS
FOR MY OWN ENDS
THE EARTH
WITHOUT ORGANS
THe PLANE
OF CONSISTENCIES
OF SWARMING INTENSITIES
AND SHIFTING CURRENTS
OF GEOLOGICAL FLOW
I THAT HAVE MADE THE EARTH SCREAM WITH THE PAIN MACHINE
HAVE WITNESSED THE TRAJECTORIES AS THEY MERGE
THE UNFORMED AND UNSTABLE MATTERS
AND MAD TRANSITIONARY PARTICLES
I HAVE UNCOVERED
THE CRUCIAL PHENOMENA
OF CEASELESS CONCRETION AND COMPRESSION
THE ORDERING OF INTENSITIES
THROUGH THE SHIFTING LAYERS OF STRATA
OCCLUSIONS
ACTS
OF CAPTURE
TERRITORIALISED
JUDGEMENTS OF GOD
GOD
god THE LOBSTER
THE DOUBLE PINCER
THE DOUBLE BIND
DOUBLE BIND
DOUBLE BIND
DOUBLE BIND
THE FIRST ARTICULATION
SELECTS FROM THE CHAOS
IMPOSING AN ORDER
ON UNSTABLE FLOWS
THE SECOND ASSEMBLES AND CODES
AS EXPRESSION IS GIVEN TO CONTENT
MACHINIC ASSEMBLAGES PROLIFERATE AND DIVERGE
SOLIDFYING OR DISSOLVING
AUTOMATIC SYSTEMS DEVELOP AND MERGE
AND FORM FOLDS INTO SUBSTANCE INTO FORM
MATTERS
SELECTED AND CODED
STRUCTURED
INTO MACHINIC ASSEMBLAGE
FLOWS
SHIFT UPWARD AND DOWNWARD
THROUGH LAYERS
INTERMEDIARY
THE FOLDING
MOLECULES
THROUGH FRAMEWORKS
TO ORGANS
THE VECTORS
ORGANIC
MINERAL
CONCEPTS
ENDLESSLY CONVOLUTING DISTINCTIONS PROLIFERATE ON ANY GIVEN STRATUM AS MILLEU ORDER THE CODES OF THE SUBSTRATA
AND ABSTRACT ANIMALS EMERGE
MOLECULAR POPULATIONS
DICTATE FORM AND
CONTENT
SUCH ARE THE STRATA
ENDLESS ARTICULATIONS
FORM AND EXPRESSION
MOLAR INDUCTION
TRANDSUCTION OF SIGNS
TRANSLATION OF CODES
FOSSILS OF MEANING
AND PETRIFIED VELOCITIES
THE STRATA
CONGEALED
THE STRATA
THE MASK IS UNDONE
DOUBLE FACING
DISARTICULATED
TOWARD THE DRUMGATE
AS I DISSOLVE
INTO THE MECHANOSPHERE
PANIC IS CREATION
PANIC IS CREATION

STAGNATED VAPID LITURGIES
INVOKE CLICHED ARCANE TROPES
INNOVATION IS SO COMPLICATED
SO LET’S STICK TO THE CVLT WE KNOW
DONE UP IN DEAD LANGUAGES
AND REVERBERATING IN CAVERNS
INTONE THE TRIED AND TESTED LITANIES
OF OLD SCHOOL VALIDATION
CLUSTERED IN THE SEPULCHERS
OF CURDLED SOCIAL MEDIA MAGICK
ENDLESSLY CATALOGUING THE SACRED NAMES
AND PICKING OVER THEIR REMAINS
MESSAGE BOARD OCCULTISM
SELF CONGRATULATORY MYSTICISM
LETHARGIC PSEUDO-PROFUNDITY
APPEASE THE FORUM LORDS
BARGAIN BIN INCANTATIONS
EXTOL THE LATEST ANCIENT NADIR
WORSHIP THE CULT
WORSHIP
THE ANCIENT GODS ASCENDANT
AS ARBITRARY THEATRICS DEMAND
WORSHIP THE CULT
WORSHIP
DIGITAL ATAVISM SERMONS
EXTOL THE OLD RELIGION DECADES PAST
BLASPHEMIC GARBLED NOSTALGIA
APPEASE THE SOCIAL MEDIA HORDE
BLUE COLLAR
MAGISTERS
JOSTLING FOR
validation
herd thought individualism
gratifying mindless elitism
LETHARGIC PSEUDO PROFUNDITY
ALL WRAPPED UP IN ENTREPRENEURIAL ZEAL
THE TRUE NAMES
NEVER MEANT TO BE RELEASED
GLEANED FROM SACRED LOW FI DEMOS
WORSHIP THE CULT
WORSHIP
VACANT ORATORS CHANT CONTRARIAN INCANTATIONS
WITH ALL THE DREAD BANALITY
OF NIHILISM
ALL THE DREAD BANALITY
OF NIHILISM

THE OPPORTUNITIES ARE ENDLESS
AND THEY CIRCLE MY LEADEN CORPSE LIKE VULTURES
WHILST DOOMSDAY SCENARIOS CARVE HOLES IN MY MIND
LIKE WOODWORM THROUGH ROTTEN TIMBER
IT’S AN ENDLESS STRUGGLE
TO BANISH THAT SOPORIFIC FOG
A CLOYING VISCOUS SHROUD
WRAPPED AROUND DEADENED SYNAPSES
CEASELESS
STRIVING
THE BURDEN OF ENDEAVOR
NEURONS ACHING
SHRIEKING MANDIBLES OF INTERNAL MONOLOGUE SCOUR MY CORTEX
A LANDSCAPE OF POSSIBILITIES POCKMARKED WITH HOLES
SPIRAL CONTENT STRIP-MINES BELCH LETHARGY
I AM HOLLOWED OUT AND DRAINED
EMPTIED OUT INTO THIS ENDEAVOR
I AM HOLLOWED OUT AND DRAINED
THERE ARE NO SOLUTIONS - TOIL
AND YET THE WORK MUST CONTINUE EVEN AS NERVES BURN
BARBED HOOKS OF LETHARGY ANCHORED DEEP
FROM PULLEYS OF SISYPHEAN CYCLES
THE TETHER EVER TIGHTENING
AT THE PROSPECT OF ESCAPE
AND LASHING AT MY MINDS SKIN
AS ACHIEVEMENT ELUDES BY FLAILING GRASP
VICIOUS
CIRCLES
BARBED AND SELF DEFEATING
FUTILE
DEFIANCE
IT WILL
NEVER
BE GOOD ENOUGH TO REST

BECOMING
IMMANENT
BECOMING
STRETCH INTO MYCELIUM
EXTEND WITHIN, WITHOUT
ABSORBING EXTRUDING DISSOLVING
SYSTEMATICALLY DISMANTLE
COMPONENTS OF SELF
EVAPORATE INTO NEON FOG
DECONSTRUCTED ORGANISM
IMMANENCE IS PARAMOUNT!
MEMBRANES PERMEATED
ASSEMBLAGES FORMED
You never reach the Body without Organs
you cannot reach it
you are forever attaining it
it is a limit
TO RESEMBLE THE NETWORK
TRANSFORMED INTENSITIES
THE MACHINE IS CONSTRUCTED AND MOVES
ORGANS RENDERED CONCEPT
UNFOLDED AND ASSEMBLED
REFOLDED AND REFORMED
MYRIAD POTENTIALS
SIMULTANEOUSLY
A PHENOMENON
OF ACCUMULATION
COAGULATION
SEDIMENTATION
TEAR AWAY
THE CONSCIOUS
FROM THE SUBJECT
STRIP
THE UNCONSCIOUS
FROM THE SIGN
THE PLANE UNFETTERED
THE SORCERER
FORGES
THE PACT
CYCLIC TRANSFER
FEEDBACK LOOP
CURRENTS

BECOME THE MULTIPLICITY
THE ANOMALOUS RECAST
TRAJECTORIES SKEWERED
BY LINES OF DESIRE
EXPLODED THOUGHT
THROUGH GRIDS AND AXES
PLATEAUS EMERGE
LINES OF FLIGHT!

about
The professor has gathered the performers and articulated their expressions. The unformed and unstable matters have coalesced and stratified. The rhizome is presented as it dissolves.
Dismantling traditional tropes and reassembling them over a warped scaffold of noise and experimentation, death metal mavericks Plague Rider continue to push at the boundaries of their genre with Rhizome.
Relentless sinewy riffs interlace with frenetic drum work, whilst layers of noise and varied inhuman vocal delivery merge into a barely contained whole. A challenging listen which is as vicious as it is expansive, Rhizome represents the shifting neural network of a continuously evolving sonic entity.
Panic is creation.
