lyrics
Day after day we fall into a whirlwind of nihilism, there is no right or wrong, let the
pessimism take over. Sucked down the sewers by our daily working lives, submit to the
masters with a pound of flesh to carry our sins forward...
Feeling numb, terminate, pride is sin, dead inside
Fear within, unstable, into this void
I'm trapped in this life by work, sustain myself
A wage is paid for my sins, must go faster
To please the gods who keep me chained to the machine
Praise the gods, on my knees, overlords, I must please
Sullen my expression, smiling on the outside
Getting through the day when my sins are paid for
Standing by myself I'm in disagreement
I don't make the rules, crush the individual
Swallow my pride and move forward, deciding on my fate
They punish, cut off all opportunities
Try to starve my hope making me one of them
A machine to fit in with the company
Ironclad agreement, A contract signed in blood
I wish I was like them, cold and calculating
Ruthless their decisions, for me no more to gain
Sucked dry by indifference, their assets have grown stronger.
Thrown aside once I'm used, A life now in the gutter
Total hate, despise them, curse of all, feel my pain
Burning inside anger rise, restore my broken pride
I once was so nice subservience denied
No more, rise up, make myself heard to them
Destroy their “morals” I will not beg
A working god, dodging your attack, fed on propaganda, Ironclad intolerance
I have crawled through broken glass, compromised my moral code
For you to step over me, defame my character
Crucify, nails are words, a crown of thorns I wear
Company logo was tattooed upon my soul
A working god, dodging your attack, fed on propaganda, Ironclad intolerance
I now feel cathartic, past employment purged
Move onto next prospect, the cycle repeats again

Siege (Atmospheric Death/Doom Metal)
by THE SLOW DEATH (Australia)supported by 14 fans who also own “Procession To Annihilation”
A lovely, epic, atmospheric album with a post-rock lilt. Mandy Andresen's vocals are amazing and fit the music perfectly. Nice and proggy, even a bit like Jethro Tull in places.

Leaden Light (Atmospheric Death/Doom Metal)
by ILLIMITABLE DOLOR (Australia)supported by 14 fans who also own “Procession To Annihilation”
Atmospheric Doom / Death Metal from Australia. Proper Doom has the power to bring out your emotions & your sadness and forces you to process it so that you come out the other side feeling temporarily better. This is proper Doom Metal, at least for me, it does all those things... :) Love every song! Highly recommended!!!
