Disruption 05:35
Disruption Silence is the key to keep my will under control Kept til the moment I can’t withstand it anymore Once you told me there’s a single way to escape it all Consequence is lacking. There’s no thinking anymore Silence is the key to erode your ego and alibi Hopes and wishes set aflame. There’s nothing to deny Thought you were in heaven but you were living in hell The dawn of your return grants me paralyzed consciousness Striving for perfection and hiding when it comes Seeing its reflection and the fire it becomes My hunger not satiated. I must leave you behind None to blame. Finger deep within the borderline Twelve o’clock depression boredom turns to drowsiness I drink another glass of red. I can’t do anything else there’ s some kind of something going on. I feel it in the air My doubtful trembling thoughts turns to embraced senseless despair I have become insensitive. Hard times just don’t go away My fire, it knew no pain. yet is it dead? Though I remain I took the shame, I’m one with hurt, I piss on your lies I’m heading for the border. Alone I can’t fear to die Silence is the key to keep my will under control Kept til the moment I can’t withstand it anymore Once you told me there’s a single way to escape it all Consequence is lacking. There’s no thinking anymore Silence is the key to erode your ego and alibi Hopes and wishes set aflame. There’s nothing to deny Thought you were in heaven but you were living in hell The dawn of your return grants me paralyzed consciousness Striving for perfection and hiding when it comes Seeing its reflection and the fire it becomes My hunger not satiated. I must leave you behind None to blame. Finger deep within the borderline

Proper use of myself Scared of not knowing, of knowing too much Scared of being a joke, of being able to trust Scared of feeling the fool, scared of what I just smoked Scared of losing a sibling, of losing a friend Hurt Pain Love it Proper use of myself Scared of showing emotion, of showing weakness Scared of being a father, of the consequence Scared of being too happy, scared of always being sad Scared of being threatened, scared of being hit Scared of being a memory, scared of being forgotten Scared of nobody being there when I finally die Scared of nobody caring, scared of facing god Proud to be fuel for the losers’ fire Hurt Pain Love it Proper use of myself

Horizon ignited I forgot how to breathe I feed myself while my sadic mind dreams up a world where I’m alone where nightmares fade away, slowly Disappointment hones to an edge waiting for the nod to slice to the bone without respite Can’t you hear me? Do it, save myself I crave Horizon ignited holes in the clouds by twos I’m everything that you claim to be Can’t you hear me? Do it, save myself I crave Can’t you hear me? Do it, save myself I prey As above so below I come spinning out of the nothingness there is no reason why I should dread the ghost hidden inside me inside my body Can’t you hear me? Do it, save myself I crave Try to catch me I just blame myself Hide me

Stigmatized (robotripping) While your god was sleeping, mine was having fun Nothing changes behavior like pain everybody turns their back on us faces dimmed by memory still heard and madness may be here and the sounds are gone And it hangs around, the way Everybody wants to jump in with their sympathy and they pretend to built walls of concrete until they see the reality They became a consumer of the needs they create everyday Will they die before they wake up and perish by the coming day? While your god was sleeping, mine was having fun Nothing changes behavior like pain everybody turns their back on us faces dimmed by memory still heard and madness may be here and the sounds are gone Down the senseless pit of despair their direction is out of control they demand to swim in dried up lake in a collection of impurities up is down, left could be right There is no moon or sun to shine bright Just clouds, which seem to orbit this place In a beautiful blue they keep their little race While your god was sleeping mine was having fun Nothing changes behavior like pain everybody turns their back on us faces dimmed by memory still heard and madness may be here and the sounds are gone

The end of a world The world as we know it, will come to an end Just stay, enjoy the show, worship the big bang This marks the sad last day of our dna I don’t want to miss all the great fun when it finally blows I’m standing at the highest point of the hill I wish all of you could see this on TV look at these young men trying to eat a big fish like arctic animals they burrow through the wreckage and their memories the end of a world no lights from the satellite Soon they’ll see us from a million miles away the end of a world a swirl of eerie lights millions of them they move like cosmic firef lies First the lights will go out in Vegas, London, then Rome Riot police is trying to control the unruly crowd How much quicker can you escape what you fear? bodies encircle a fire pit they resemble the rays of the sun the end of a world no lights from the satellite Soon they’ll see us from a million miles away the end of a world a swirl of eerie lights millions of them they move like cosmic fireflies

Wake Up. Rehab I’m seeing purple, seeing various greens fuzzy channels on my TV screen Electrified colours ‘round my head it’s a rainbow, I’m already dead Now I am home, I sure as hell know what to do I’ll sleep it all off, pass out in bed I’ve licked the dirty needle graced with pain my feelings slowly washing down the drain Electrified colours all over my skin Forever living in a trance of sin Now I’m alone, a voice is telling me right from wrong tonight the devil is the only one singing the song I see magic way up in the sky I tell myself that the voice was a lie Pins rushing through my body, thoughts of insane deception slither in my brain I’m seeing purple, seeing various greens fuzzy channels on my TV screen Electrified colours ‘round my head it’s a rainbow I’m already dead

Lava bed Sahara Colors fading around us, where do we go? Steadily walking ‘til we find the shadow an endless nothing. such a long way from home The sun sits high. Death walks behind Crawling on the sand like turtles. are we dying? Plodding past bleached out skulls of the ones who came before me Nobody knows where we are. Nobody cries when we die discouraged ones our pulse is racing again, slowly... Where are we now? Slowly up the sand mountain we go we’ll sleep beneath the eagles nest The scorpion raises his head eying me the merciless sun shines with unbearable beams Supplicate the sky for a drop of water Shade is our immaculate ecstasy. We die free. Nobody knows where we are. Nobody cries when we die discouraged ones our pulse is racing again, slowly... Where are we now?

Radiophobia 04:48
Radiophobia Can’t you see? the màssive gaping hole and the awful scarlet glow Uranium 235, a bullet running at the speed of light Алло. Это ВПЧ-2? Да. Что у вас там горит? Взрыв… на главком корпусе… между третим и четвертым блоком. А там люди есть? Да. Подымай наш состав. Подымаю. Начальника поднял. Всех. Всех. Весь состав, офицерский корпус подымай! Can’t you see? the màssive gaping hole and the awful scarlet glow A place where ruin itself has planted its seed This place was built for sin Tell me why you make things so complicated? you can neither expiate nor mystify the mistakes Nothing can be erased, nothing canceled Pain endures in the beating hearts inflamed memory of fear Леонид Алексеевич? Да. Алло. Припять. Третий и четвертый блок в результате аварии. Взрыва. …давай. Так уже подтвердили? Не подтвердили. Там авария произошла у них. Это диспетчер Припяти сказала. Пожарная охрана. Алло. Иванков? Да-да. Значит. Вы выезжаете в Припять… алло! Да-да, я слышу. На атомную станцию выезжайте. Там третий, четвертый блок горит крыша. Fire in the turbine hall black smoke The core exploded. It’s all right meltdown A prayer, or a memory a goodbye and the mute sound of the world fades away Intense, searing pain it’s all right tons of burning steel and graphite Terrible kaleidoscope bloodline One aims. Another falls. decline

Sleep 05:16
Sleep Sleep my sweet friend, red lights have all gone grey The deafening noise turns into calm, so profound Sleep... Don’t lay too close to the edge of the bed Or little grey wolf will come and grab you by the flank Take your guitar, show me what you wrote last night Naive and confessional verses that cut like a knife Show me the way to be proud, to be careless and cold Teach me how to transform all the filth into gold Lay down and sleep my brother I feel that urge to run I can’t explain why we lost our minds from the start I shake my head to clear the image of a wraith Hours watching the wall, bested by my anxiety What I learned I rejected. I won’t believe again Dismay inside Sense of smother and now I bet you got me wrong

Nearly incomplete ex Do Something Knocking, knocking, who is there? Waiting, waiting, O how fair! ‘Tis a Pilgrim, strange and kingly Never such was seen before Knocking, knocking, still He’s there Waiting, waiting, wondrous fair But the door is hard to open For the weeds and Ivy vine Into the last good fight I’ll never know I live and die on this day Save me! you motherfucker absentee! Either kill me or take me as I am because I’ll be damned if I ever change There’s no god, nature sufficeth unto herself Knocking, knocking, who is there? Waiting, waiting, O how fair! ‘Tis a Pilgrim, strange and kingly Never such was seen before Knocking, knocking, still he’s there Waiting, waiting, wondrous fair But the door is hard to open For the weeds and Ivy vine

The pursuit of happiness Your mind is playin’ tricks on you That’s cold beneath your feet Burn the infected wounds and all the crap left incomplete Wear the abnegation erase the pictures in your mind Claim the cult of hesitation leave the pieces left behind Fear and panic feel so sweet you’ve been used with deceit it’s time for you to haunt the dreams of those who stole your breath Still the thought of happiness haunts you like a ghost One day it will catch you and give you the skill to breathe You cry and pray the best you can while going down on your knees Choking down your voices as you hit the wall of concrete Still the thought of happiness haunts you like a ghost One day it will catch you and give you the skill to breathe ...but not now...

Harsh & educational How’s it feel? When everything is not as you hoped They did everything to leave me behind I always felt anxious whenever I spoke to someone I can’t reveal what happened that night Feeling like everything I do is wrong, they said they forced me to unlearn what is right Mama taught me never to give unsolicited advice yeah it’s harsh, but it makes sense How’s it feel? When they destroy everything I’ve built Instead of pulling me up they let me fall They treat me as if I was invisible They leave me there and turn off the light Harsh and educational Sweet revengeful act Vengeance Harsh and educational Suffering is where I come from I used to plant flowers along your spine Now I take them back and I wish you pain

Solve et coagula Come alive on the driver’s side spread your legs. Cleanse me smiles elude psychotic eyes Let me do me. Enslave me Bruise me. Make me feel alive ride the snake. Abuse me The more you fuck the more you need Make me cum. Amaze me so I may grow in you let me penetrate the sky Solve et coagula take it ‘til it breaks your spine time to use your tongue upon my flesh taste the salts of my skin to thee sickly sweets from within Let me cum. Disgrace me So I may grow in you Let me penetrate the sky Solve et Coagula take it ‘til it breaks your spine

Magical smoke screen Clues everywhere Our world. A magical smoke screen No matter how far down the scale we’ve gone Coming down. Wrong side What lies beyond the unknown? your aura led me away from my turbulence at night I hear the cries Swollen eyes start to bleed Despite my weird youth the owl fades away from me to serve the lord I go down on my knees the black owl sings As the night wind blows the magical rustling that brings on the dark dream Balance is the key a magical smoke screen an evil man has a way no matter how clever to the trained eye his way will show itself Is there a reason for a death mask?

about

Most Aborym albums play like testimonies of sudden unpredictable turbulent mood swings. Bursts of rage and coldness give way to creeping anxiety, startling roughness give way to scenarios of loneliness and anguish. Harmonic noise predominate. Melodic motifs recur like the whole thing’s being hammered out as the tape rolls. With Hostile Aborym can be considered part of a select group of acts who have the unwanted distinction of being a band whereupon every note of music made after a certain point in time can be deemed something of a triumph. Where Aborym do succeed in bringing themselves full circle, it’s by mixing the acoustic elements, the search for the melody, the coldness of the machines and the industrial influences that surfaced on their Shifting.negative album. Hostile often acts like a cudgel, pounding sludgy guitars and the hip-swiveling grind of the rhythm section directly into the listener’s temporal lobe. Hostile is a cryptic puzzle of darkness, brightness, discomfort, equilibrium and loathing. This is music in its rawest/classy form, an expression from deep within, without any care for convention or crowd-pleasing. It is the sound of four complicated people making long, eye-poppin’ complicated songs together. It’s undoubtedly the most cohesive release of this band. It’s an album that rewards further listens, but nonetheless tends to remain a mildly frustrating introspective experience. Songs are mixed with the purpose to unsettle and agitate listeners, and they aim to offer a fine contrast by balancing this post-industrial (prog)rock-metal aesthetic with enigmatic and slippery technologic delirium.
