Aurora Apparatus

Battle Witch Spine-chilling sci-fi doom. If 2001 were made today this would be the sound emanating from the monolith. Favorite track: Aurora Apparatus.
Bertrand Marchal

Bertrand Marchal the music strikes first by its commanding power, its industrialized austerity. It hides also a strange blurred quality that you sink in, letting you hypnotised by its dark encompassing vibes. It's mystical Funeral Doom slowed down to Drone, a black thick ocean that echoes a terrible sense of loneliness.
Kamikaze Bass

Kamikaze Bass This is a great modern blend of Seance inspired doom and industrial brutality. Discordant tones and melodic passages build in to a tangled mass of disquiet. It’s fucking good.

The first of earth, The first of living birth, The first of sky, Judged of defiant worth What crime, misdeed, Felony did we seed? The waste of youth Locked in with jealous speed For all our hands, Steeped deep in strength and tide, Curse of the lands. And our faces, Locked and hidden in Buried places. Chained down, kept low, Under rock and shadow. Burnt and blasted By internal flow. For all our hands, Steeped deep in strength and tide, Curse of the lands. And our faces, Locked and hidden in Buried places.

Titanomæchy 12:31
Father, do you see the design? The wordless cycle? The final truth in the sign? The truth most vital? Mother, can you see that path? That axiom road? That ending in wrath? That debt we are owed? Brothers, will you reach for swords? Then for all the blades? Then all tools for warlords? Then all warring trades? Sisters, what to build after? This new world for us? This new peak thereafter? This way to power? The machine is revealed, The gears unravelled, The forecast reckoned. The future: ours to wield. The machine is revealed, The gears unravelled, The forecast reckoned. The future: ours to wield.

Hyperion 12:16
I, a lord of always, Forever my sight on dawn’s blaze Forever my vision on the beyond Forever could not prolong Here, in revelation, As the kingdom lies in ruination As the world begins to open As our cosmos lies broken Then, we must retire, Our dominions, the diurnial fire Our daybreak beauty, resigned Our desires fade, unbind Now, we depart this place, Dreams of echelons replaced Dreams will be shifted, unfocused Dreams set loose as the locust I, the lord of nowhere, Die in the naked despair Die from the bright principle Die, no longer celestial

Stepping onto the peak Of these bizarre hills, The warlike people on foothills To mould beyond the antique The new god in a new place, The metamorphosis now embraced No ending is forgone, No history to stay or hang on, No story or laws set in stone I bring our ancient engines, Fuelled on lessons of bloodshed, Perfect for the automatic spearhead: These devices who would burn my heavens I see the fire of my affinity, They will put this earth to irons, These implements are one with the lions: Steeped in vigour and infinite ability Now, let us peak beyond the dawn Now, let us break the dawn The new god in a new place, The metamorphosis now embraced. The machine in chaotic trance, A strange name for a strange space. I have left my lands, For my never-ending search for the new, To shatter that old deep blue, With these new augmented hands Take heed lame explorer, Before you worship, take pause… For you have known me as I was From Eos, now witness Aurora
