lyrics

To live your life you have to fight
To make the day to bring on flight
It’s a brutal world not fair or right
Death stalks day and night
You kill for food you kill to survive
A world past this you cannot contrive
Emotionless, instinct to drive
Not aware that you’re alive

Yet
She
Is
Here
Living

She could not understand

She had no self

But she was destined for more

Then the cosmos spoke

The meganeura flies
In the carboniferous
The meganeura flies
This is her deliverance

Great change has come
She is aware
She thinks therefore
She thinks therefore
She is

Fly
Fly with her
Fly

The meganeura flies
In the carboniferous
The meganeura flies
This is her deliverance

Fly
Fly with her
Fly
Fly
Fly with her

i checked out bands coming to my town, and xoth were on the list. at first i thought they were cheesy since i only liked metal to be deep, dark, and atmospheric . i did enjoy the technical complexity, so i gave them another chance. i equated shredding with jockishness (ugh), but i now see it as a creative choice. i just had to approach it on my own terms, and xoth was the perfect gateway for this. they really opened up a new world for me. quasiotter

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
