Pledge Nothing But Flesh

mourner This is more blackened than the predecessor and shows the first impressive results of Scáth Na Dêithe on their way to their own style. A very dark and intense release. Favorite track: Bloodless.

Dave Aftandilian Powerful blackened death emanations of bottomless desolation. First we strip doubt from our minds, then flay the flesh from our bodies. Yet still we are cesspools of unworthy filth, so we drain our blood into the cup of a calotte and pour it out upon the ground. Empty husks at last we may now pass into blessed nothingness.

bmurator Irish Black / Death Metal. If you need to be kicked into orbit all the way around the earth with little hope of return, this is the album to do it! If you do not, that is really too bad because it is happening anyway... :) The intensity here is something else, the music is bleak & dark, just like the doctor ordered & the whole album is peppered with just the right quantity of melodic riffs & great vocals. Highly recommended!!!

The Things I Wish I Could Unsee The Music I could Silence When We Are Left Behind When Old Fears Grow Strong Who Of This World Will See The Face Of God When We Are Buried When We Are Forgotten When We Are Forced To Question Mark Their Skin And Tear Their Hearts Out It Takes A Dying Man To See The Truth It Holds Back The Answers It Waits Patiently It Fuels Hatred At The Self It's Name Is Uncertainty And It's Music Will Not Be Silenced We Have No Blood To Give These Lands Echo Our Names Yet They Could Not Be Further From Your Lips We Have No Place In This World Ashen, As An Effigy Of The Story Teller Laid Restless In His Tomb Where His Words Beat Hopelessly Against The Stone That Traps Him You Must Spill Blood To See The Face OF God So Mark Our Skin And Tear Our Hearts Out We Stand Bloodless Before You As You Force Us In To The Shadows And We Scream Out In The Dark You Will Pass From This World Grey And Silent Where We Will Linger Hopeless With The Story Teller In His Tomb Beating Our Heads Against The Stone

Faceless, Desolate, This Isolation It Tears Mind, Body And Soul These Cruel Empty Days Seem Unending, Uncertain And Where Cruel Words Are Whispered There Is No Escaping The Flame The Mind Is Blinded By Disease Stricken, The Search For Clarity Failing To Recognize The Peril Where Dormant Anxiety Gathers Pledge Nothing But Flesh And Trust Only In Death The Silence, The Waiting That Familiar Presence Resentment Resentment Towards The Self Pacing, Unnerving, The Steps By The Door What Fresh Torture Do They Beckon To Drink Poison Is To Them The Only Cure Not Until Your Demise Will This Torment Cease Not Until Your Spirit Is Driven From You This Unrecognized Disease, Dormant Superstition, Living Decay Alone To Wander In Your Mind Free From This World, Free From A Mothers Curse Free To Gaze In Complete Apathy At The Limbs That Writhe Beneath You As They Twist And Blacken The Very Soil Resonated The Land Screamed Out But You Were Mute

Sat Alone, Your Silent Contemplation Illuminated In The Candles Dying Flame Sat In Frustration With Agonizing Thoughts Of Failed Endeavors You Came To Them With Wounds Torn Open A Body Wrought With Desperation And All Who Would Help Are Denied Absolution Tragedy Has Marked Your Life Dulled Your Teeth And Ground Your Bones To Dust A Mind In Shackles Chained Since Birth To A Broken Ideal You Have Grovelled Before Their Altar Yet Still They Offer No True Salvation Allow Death To Consume True Redemption Force The Spirit Into Pathetic Submission Helpless You Left Alone To Seek Out A Forgotten Truth Hidden Behind Blinded Eyes Blinded By Age Not Ignorance A Terrifying Reality That Rests Beneath A Twisted Form You Have Seen Your Own Death You Are Hateful At Yourself For Living Sat Alone, In Helpless Frustration Lone Candle Casts Light Upon The Open Coffin That Terrible Altar Before You Place Stones To Hold The Doors And In Rabid Consuming Fury You Begin Your Task You Beat The Corpse Each Blow Drives Out A Lie Lies That Have Marked Your Life Each Broken Bone A Shackle Broken From You

Plagued By Torment A Crippling Identity Foundationless Morality That Casts Aside A Fading Beauty Left Paralyzed By This Voluntary Sickness Left Deaf To Harsh Cries Futile Pleas Of The Forgotten They Drown In Their Own Blood And With Bloody Hands They Visit You To Confront You With A Crippling Realization You Are As Dead As They Are You Will Vanish But They Will Fade Panicked By Truth, A Crippling Absolute You Cannot See The Bodies Before You Contorted They Hang In The Branches Of Trees Oblivious To Their Slow Decay Oblivious To Your Hollow Life Your Desolate Existence Your Barren Mind This Search Has No Ending There Is No Meaning That Waits To Be Found So Scream Cry Out Your Questions Dry Your Tongue And Choke On Your Words Emptiness Is All That Awaits You You Built Your World In Total Silence Now Silence Is All That Is Left To You
