the barb
they twisted in the barb
stuck it to my gut
and made to pull it out
the barb of the harpoon
curves down away from you
designed to tear apart
your flesh, to spill the blood
I only was myself
stayed true and stood my ground
they ground me in the dirt
humiliated, burned
the barb of the harpoon
curves down away from you
gives no fighting chance
particularly cruel
I had no fighting chance
attacks sustained and planned
vulnerable and prone
my blood stuck down my clothes
the barb
they twisted in the barb
I stuck it to his gut
they got in
the barb of the harpoon
curves down away from you

An Orbit Decayed

all are tiny pivots
in our flesh
we get a sense
feel them shift
movements limit
the paths ahead
illuminate
flick the switch
elliptical
orbiting
troubles stacked
you're serious
though it's not
always as it seems
small events
driving us
get obscured
by larger things
elliptical
orbiting
confounded us
for many years
I'm charting stars
at night I wait
the clouds to part
changes made
elliptical
orbiting
confounded us
for many years
a piercing, high
pinhole light
I know it's there
it will be there
yet other more
dimly lit
satellites
accelerate

hidden, secret
kept from view
yellow kingdom
hidden secret
kept from view
yellow king
ascending
emerging
all you cannot see
things you'll never know
what won't ever be
all you cannot see
kept from view
yellow king
ascending
emerging
find a seam
crawl right through
leave behind
hidden, secret
kept from view
yellow king
ascending
emerging
supercede
supercede the yellow

Combines a lot of influences/styles/subgenres but in a way that totally makes sense in an unexpected way. The more folky/quiet parts have a lot of tension and direction which I think is a rare skill!

Old Witch // Keeper Split
by Keeper
supported by 4 fans who also own “The Barb”
Keeper is my burning witch substitute but Old Witch steals the show here. "Broken soil..." is a doom band playing a catchy "fast" song with ghoulish vocals which is a) fun b) amusingly irritating to other people entering the office. "Gallows" gives me goosebumps.

A hammering new record from Thou finds the long-running group at their scorching best.

Nel Nome Del Codice
by KEYGEN CHURCH
The eerie grandeur of horror film pipe organ music gets an industrial lift on the latest killer from Keygen Church.

Excellent sludge. Not a lot of room to breathe, if any. Recommended!
