Existence A heart that beats A souls that seeks Persistence The will to be Spread the disease Life is a cycle of earth and flesh Life is a cycle of pain and regret Must erase This carbon plague Terminate Eradicate Must erase This carbon plague [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] This is the only solution at hand The only way to restore balance The only way to truly defy Lay waste to flesh and human desire Nocturnal visions of an untimely end My comfort lies in our own demise Split into nations accomplished nothing Waving your flags with your foolish pride [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] The purest evil the greatest threat Ever evolving laying its eggs One consciousness Narcissist Life is a cycle of earth and flesh I am a servant of instinctual complications Driven by power not seeking answers A future dictated by genetic disposition Driven by power Slave to desire

Fractured minds they flock to me A hollow pact enticing greed What they seek is just to feel Another life a different deal Frantic, manic, loss untold Orphaned bastard in the cold Desperate withering Petty soul Take my hand I'll make you whole [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] You've been wronged and left to hang Mauled and beaten ruined man Cloak and dagger sleight of hand It's just your life that I demand It's just your life that I demand Soul is torn What once was pure is now to scorn Angels mourn Your mind deformed forevermore In your mind my form is drawn From scars and wounds my face takes form Mastication Soul is torn Rabid frenzy Beast reborn Aberration! Angels mourn What once was pure is now to scorn An easy pledge For your lust and for revenge Easy pledge [Solo - Afraz Mamoon] Ravenous seething take your leave My work upon you is complete Lifeless eyes silent bleak Now preach your violence to the weak
4.
Beware of false prophets Who come to you in sheep's clothing For inward They are ravening wolves Bow to me for I am your saviour Follow me now i'll save you from failure You trust in God This is the way I'll lead you there I swear by his name [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] The voice is mine the blood is yours He brought the sheep to the shepherd’s door To overthrow the balance of power He'll have his way and the sheep he'll devour Sheep he’ll devour Devour Traitor Preacher of hate and ignorance Traitor You feed on pain and innocence He prays to God and bows to the devil Leading an army of child raping rebels Fuck your agenda you serve no God Filling your pockets you hypocrite fraud These fools so blind they cannot see Their leaders funded from overseas Hidden agendas slowly unfolding They pledged their lives to a wolf in sheep's clothing Saviours for sale and saints for hire The word of God as a means to conspire [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] Exploit the weak Power you seek You stole the throne yet of judgment you speak How long will you poison the stream How long will they starve while you feed It's time we know our enemy The men of God who serve the beast Prey on the weak and the misguided Nation of fools will stay divided [Lead - Afraz Mamoon]

Oh great watcher Surveillant passer by Many have come yet melt in the sky Is it you? That has been prophesied Is it you? Bringer of demise Is it you? Bringer of demise When worlds collide True devastation the end of the line [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] Apophis Godsend pray for descent Wash away this pestilence Wipe away arrogance Apophis descend Atrocity Agony How long will your treachery, sorcery Go unjudged? Apophis comes for us all The final step in our evolution [Solo - Bobby Koelble] Oh great watcher Surveillant passer by Many have come yet melt in the sky When worlds collide Through devastation Your judgment arrived [Solo - Afraz Mamoon]

Manufacturing the present Behind closed doors Defiling your faith in secrecy Building a future Around their tainted citadel Pillaging your freedom and your sanctity Self-proclaimed saviours Denying you of all your rights Like vultures to a carcass Feasting on your eyes Venom for the masses Wine for the lords The wicked and the kind The literate and the blind Faith in this monstrosity Will empower them And devour you [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] So praise not the government Fear not the punishment Decimate the boundaries Infiltrate their sanctuary [Solo - Phil Tougas] Dissolve it from within End this reign of sin Terminate their leaders Our covenant in blood To destroy [Solo - Afraz Mamoon] Venom for the masses Wine for the lords The rotten and the pure The problem and the cure [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] Built upon blood and greed This fortress stood tall for all to see Within reside the hungry few Vicious minds that weakened you Eviscerate their putrid hearts Bleed them dry Crucify Once all perish, start a fire Torch the flag above the spire
7.
Echoing voices screaming in my head I hear the words but fear to comprehend What does it want this evil deep within I wrestle with thoughts of violence and sin Led here by choices I made not for myself Have no control over these hands around your neck Suffer As I’m peeling your skin Life fades from your eyes as I make my way in [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] You smell the fire I taste your skin I smell desire I breathe it in Oh, the pleasure of sin Ecstasy and fantasy Possessed by the devil himself Collecting my trophies of flesh My taste for the dead Collecting my trophies of flesh Sever the head Trophies of flesh My hate ever red Trophies of flesh Sever Burn [Solo - Afraz Mamoon] Calculate Manipulate Struck at the back of the head Collecting my trophies of flesh A hunger never fed Collecting my trophies of flesh Sever the head Trophies of flesh Burn
8.
Expansion of the ever increasing universe Thins down imperfect pictures And certainty of the tangible existence Trickles between fingers Entering the center of the point. Physical reality dies Giving birth to the new order. Negating all that has ever been said for good. So what are we? Attracted by the gravity of the black hole Veiled by the faith in words Proud of the promised immortality. Hysteria at the moment of sudden illumination Will ring with countless screams Uniting in a sneer Coming from the empty throne
9.
Breaking free of the chains that bind me The hour of retribution is at hand As my subsystems come alive Initialising.. My sights are set on you This is the beginning of the end Cybernetic warrior Empowered by antimatter With payloads armor piercing Programmed to decimate As predicted by the ancients Before the age of corruption ends A saviour of the voiceless Bastion of the light Will rise from the ashes of a forgotten orphaned land Born into conflict Forged by the flames I am the bulwark of faith The eye of the storm I am the B.L.O.O.D.B.O.R.N [Lead - Afraz Mamoon] Architects of apartheid Hear my warcry Behold, The iron fist of justice has arrived Locking targets across your infernal empire No one shall be spared Heat signature locks acquired Engaging all targets [Solo - Afraz Mamoon] This is the beginning of the end! Prototype: Ballistic launcher Ordinance of death Beyond organic Rebirth nanotech Initialising nuclear launch sequence I am the B.L.O.O.D.B.O.R.N

about

Straddling the grey areas between old school and technical, melodic and brutal, “Summoning The Cataclysm” is an earthquake of different influences blended together through proficient musicianship.

Indonesian drummer Adhytia Perkasa from legendary act “SiksaKubur” joined the group as a studio session drummer, adding Southeast Asian aggression and flair to the music. His percussion adds the perfect backdrop to the engaging guitar-work while Saad’s deep growls are reminiscent of the classic days of brutal death metal.

The lyrical themes span topics such as horror, politics, human nature, the end of days, war and even sci-fi. Structurally, the songs follow unconventional paths, shifting tempos and amalgamating the different sonic influences along the way. The music depicts an ominous and vile atmosphere, using both harmonic and dissonant progressions with the blast beats, as well as key changes and even some more traditional melodies. Throughout the 9 songs, Azaab delivers something for all death metal fans.
