Pulse Of Ire 01:32

The Glow 01:43
Sweet, lavish alabaster Coming harvest, ritual shatter varnished corpse, dance in candor Cleansing ointment, flow and splatter You will see my pale veins glow in the moonlight, shining through my skin You will see me washed in blood, unstained by the impurity of sin You will see me my varnished corpse dance in candor; take in the ruins I will see stone angels crumble, oh Dance the dance with me Come, take my hand in the ritual dance The glow of harvest that is reaped at last come, shake the bonds of the pitiful trance Tread through the blood of the promised land Or else, die

Victuals 02:26
Set in your vile ire, indulge the libation at stake Daze in your lustful eyes; what difference in choices we make See, Johnny’s got a problem, ‘cause Johnny’s got a debt Johnny's got the currency flowing through his head What’s the point in running when you’re already dead? Sure as the cognition when you heard what they said See, Johnny’s got a problem, ‘cause Johnny’s got a debt Johnny's got the currency flowing through his head There’s no point in running when you’re already dead vast as the delusion of a life dipped in red In the caverns of darkness, there’s nothing that burns like the light and the sting of the screams that pierce through the night See, now he’s got a problem; he's bleeding through the debt Now he’s got a rendezvous arranged with the dead Now you’ve seen the parchment, your name inked in red strewn across the plain as you wake from your bed In the caverns of darkness, there’s nothing that burns like the light and the sting of the screams that pierce through the night In the sky, and the velvet that layers the stars; The horrors of having to face what you are Your mind; a stone with no salvation Your blood the price of invitation See, Johnny’s got a problem, ‘cause Johnny’s got a debt Johnnys got the currency flowing through his head There’s no point in running when you’re already dead vast as the delusion of a life dipped in red In the caverns of darkness, falsehood and lies there’s nothing that burns like the light

The gun against your skull, begging us not to shoot at last, a moment of honesty With a song of “Do wilt thou wilt” You forfeit your right to disappointment You forfeit your right to standard’s claim On what basis do you value your own life? With what gamut do measure pain? Your efforts stain the gravel once again; You’re fantasies, your lusts and next of kin Your mind debased as madness breeds within Your livelihood, the stone you’re buried in The stone “Dust from the stars pleasing itself; harming itself”- an endless facade The righteousness of flesh, A cauldron of hot filth Vitriol and lies; the lifeblood of your will The deal is done, a fortune sold On your behalf, do what you’re told Blood has never tasted sweeter That never runs dry

about

Academy Order Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

“Academy Order masterfully blends goth, death rock, post rock, new wave and hints of hardcore to create a special sound that is simultaneously a revival and a revolution. Though these songs sound like the work of a band at the peak of their career, one can tell the band is just getting started.” - Evan Martin-Casler, Cvlt Nation
