Every four years the two-headed monster rises from its pit, and we have a choice between this head or that. Their party line separation is a phantasm haunting reason. It's a choice between this diseased hand or that diseased hand. We are criminals who defy law. They are criminals who defy freedom. Endless heads of a bureaucratic hydra, and so the smiling wounds we draw across each neck. While they lounge in the decadence of their capitols and dream up new rules of social conduct, we shall sink a knife in every Caesar, we shall aim our rifles and fire at every president, every senator, every statesman. Wake up. There won't be any change. In the sewer of capitalism, only the scum will rise.

Originally from Degradation of Human Life, a split 12" with Mohoram Atta released in 2009 by Feast of Tentacles and Halo of Flies. Recorded by James Whitten in various practice spaces at "The Maze" on Rendon Street in New Orleans in a marathon weekend in January 2009.
Slow, big, HEAVY, and melodic. The guitar riffs are just so excellent and beautiful in this album ,from start to finish. The vocals help top it out with that distorted screech and Mizmor's vocal frying. Unsure how the work was split between the two groups, but the end result speaks for itself. iheartf2p

I bought this on vinyl without knowing what I was getting into. Turned out to be one of my best "I hope it's cool" purchases ever. These guys are f'n amazing. Chimplord
