lyrics

Faith scarcely fathoms its own moribundity
lest it envisions its own demise
and traces a carcass through time - bloating with every decade.

The stripping of this last vesture commands little force.
For all the high works held by mortal man
in dirty hands of clergy, betrothed to the obsolete,
sunken planks of their morality ship.

The pages, left unattended, soaking.
Laughing at their abandon.

Our vivisection informs thusly; that the caprices of
mass movement and the pointed politics of newer, greater sins,
constantly berate and bludgeon this archaic corpse.

Yet, they raise a caricature of their own historic-barbarity
while mere treading of rising water in the ocean of modernity.
To what end?

A folly unlike any before.
Old one, faith, keep up - if you even dare.
But moribund rest,
for something of such sallow worth,
paints one the wiser.

This album is everything I like to find in my sludge metal and then some. Two minutes into the first song and I was already adding it to my collection. Simply amazing. pichazos

Fly In The Trap
by Spider God

supported by 4 fans who also own “Disrobing the Vesture of Sallow Worth”

Black Renditions has been a scene-sundering release, dividing purists and non-purists even more. Fly In the Trap moves away from pop covers while also avoiding classic black metal themes to review one ov the 21st centuries' most interesting (and disturbing) trve crime stories. Spider God orchestrate it using extremely melodic black metal with raw, highly infectuous vocals. Especially the back half of the album never runs out of steam. I highly recommend it! Rest in peace, Elisa. David Fischer
