When the flowers wither When the slime of the soul Devolves Your skull dissolves to feed The mind and the kill When the mirror calls When the pain in your soul Returns The beast controls the will The mind and the kill When the maggots wither And the slime of the soul Devolves Your body dissolves to feed When you call my name When you’re born again Lust comes crawling Against your will Begging to die The mind and the kill

Some will watch Some will listen As I tear his face in two The name I take is brotherhood Behind the flame My heart remains a sanctuary Some will watch As the gore is christened When I take your life Remember it’s the path You’ve chosen The face of death will smile For the blind who’ve risen Watch and learn My face behind the mask Reprisals born In time your afflicted age Will burn

I want to tell you something else That my hand could hurt you I want to bury your needs inside I know your love demands it Weakness and virtue Aligned at will I want to show you something new How violence repairs itself I want to bury your fears inside I know your kind demands it Weakness and virtue Aligned at will

The rising sun Like a falling dagger Killing everything you know And what you believe The sickness that you feel Is the pledge you made long ago A twisted nerve that never said no A smile from the shadows A voice from within A command to savor Not your last act of sin It’s only the nightmare That you fear You beg for mercy But trust these tears Will cull our last breath The rising sun Like a falling hammer Crushing her skull to dust The greatest love you called A voice from the shadows A beast from within A command to savor Not your last act of sin It’s only the nightmare That you fear You beg for mercy But trust these tears Will cull our last breath On your knees You beg for something more Within your soul But the end is the only gift You could ever keep The rising sun Like the day we died Forgive me for the words Lies upon lies A hand from the shadows A blade cutting in A command to savor Not your last act of sin It’s only the nightmare That you fear You beg for mercy But trust these tears Will cull our last breath On your knees You beg for something more Within your soul But the end is the only gift You could ever keep

Light your candle Altar’s fire, burning for me now A summer’s midnight love Pyre rages on Your body, a figment Of time Blacker than eyes can see Flesh like a summer night Dead like a virgin spring Drink so the eyes can see Mornings carry on A darker love Burns faithfully A shadow’s midnight glow No deeper slumber When heaven’s below Pyre rages on Your body, a figment of time Blacker than eyes can see Flesh like a summer night Pyre rages on This curse, a figment Of time Dead like a virgin spring Drink so the eyes can see Pyre rages on Your body, a figment Of time Blacker than eyes can see Flesh like a summer night Dead like a virgin spring Drink so the eyes can see

Urge coming on At the edge of the city night Dusk coming down Like the beat of a dying song Counting footsteps Closer to your dreams Another faceless night To soak me in your screams Dusk coming down Like a hammer to your skull Counting heartbeats Until the end of life Closer to your dreams Closer to the knife Urge coming on At the edge of the city night Counting footsteps Closer to your dreams Dusk coming down Like a hammer to your skull Another faceless night To soak me in your screams Dusk coming down Like a hammer to your skull Counting heartbeats Until the end of life Closer to your dreams Closer to the knife

Hallowe'en 03:44
Human head Hollow eyes Comes the end All summers dead A knock at the door A twist of light Broken necks like a Cutting floor Don the mask Comes the end Yeah comes the night Human head Hallows eve Comes the night For human prey A knock at the door A twist of life Tearing skin To make you mine To make you mine Don the mask Comes the end Yeah comes the night Human head Hallows eve Comes the end All summers dead A knock at the door A prayer to die Twisted light Just to make you shine When love is gone A knock at the door A twist of light Just to tear your skin To make you mine

If my father died today I’d ride his ashes as The longest wave recedes If my heart should kill tonight Remember it’s your hand that mirrors this revenge When the rain pours over I’ll wash away these years And live again If my conscience died today I’d rather call it love That brings you to your knees If my hand should kill tonight Remember it’s your name That triggers my release When the rain pours over I’ll wash away these years And live again

about

Gorazde’s “Eyes In The Gloaming” (LP) contains all new material and raw re-recordings of select tracks from the “Slitting Wrists To Make Music To Slit Wrists To” and “Anacrusis” sessions; with an aim to remain as close to the source material as possible, sole songwriter Jeremy Moore was joined by ongoing collaborators Lisa Zing (bass, synthesizers) and Frankie Calle (drums) to hash out the album’s songs over a five day period in June 2020. Falling somewhere between Samhain era Glenn Danzig and a Brian Eno inspired New Order via Paul Chain post punk hybrid, Gorazde takes a more serious and somber tone in its foray into death rock.

Lyrical inspiration for the title track came from Moore's dreams, where the physical manifestations of guilt from committing murder under the influence of cult worship were powerful enough to seem real. The aftermath became an experiment in empathy for the grotesque, where an afflicted mind could become an instrument of torture. Vulnerability and susceptibility became tenants of exploitable weakness. But ultimately, through this exercise, embracing the true duality of the human condition was possible.

The remaining songs expound on the concepts of pagan worship and the rejection of societal norms through sadomasochism and other forms of ‘deviancy’ (a term only relevant in its relation to the proclivities of the majority). To know evil is to know every part of every man; the capacity to intentionally inflict misery and pain for the sheer joy of it is uniquely human, and therefore hell is quite literally all around us.
