Loc: It's all in your head
If you are in the right mind-state, these songs will change you forever...
    #23404950 - 07/02/16 06:51 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

I truly hope these songs have the same impact they did on ANY of you that they did on me.

I recommend these as trip listens, probably to experienced trippers as they can be QUITE intense especially if used as Mantra... or give it a listen now and try and imagine the impact this would have on you if you did.

This music cannot exist without inspiration of the source :heart:


The Contortionist - Language pt. 1

Lyrics:

Begin hyper-communication
Restore our vision
Of natural progression
Rise in groves to reclaim the source
The center

We will be the salvation the Mother seeks
Traversing in all directions

Reaching
Expanding

Balance finds it's place
Reaching for the Mother Sun
Rooted to intuition
You are the language

Ever flowing
Ever echoing

Drift with the ebb and flow
Drift with the ebb and flow
Ebb and flow
Intuition sets in
Branching out from your seed to seek

Contrived sense of inception
Intuition speak to me



The Contortionist - The Parable

Lyrics:

"Repress all you know.
My apologies' Enough, but it's all in your head.
Fiction based off truths, you led me to aid you, guide you.

You are the language.
Ever flowing, ever echoing.
You are

On the eve of knowing all, my dear we know,
patience because this all subsides in due time,
all will be clear.

And the truth is I couldn't love you more than I have come to know.
And this Mother Sun is proud to have watched you grow.
You are the perceiver, that perceived the parable, the never-ending end.
You are the infinite, you are the finite.
You are...

You are the perceiver, that perceived the parable, the never-ending end.
You are the infinite, you are the finite.
You are....


Tesseract - Altered State - Of Matter

Lyrics:

I'm a surrogate
I'm archetypal and itinerant
I'm your excuse to long
For a superior
I will undertake
I will overcome

Imperfection you will find
Look close enough
Tear off the mask I need
This endeavor is not mine
You subject me to the daggers you conceive
I'm stronger than I was before
Thus you reinforce these walls
I can't fight you anymore
Threatened by the open door
All the chances I ignore
I can't stand still anymore

The day is done
Nothing left to say
Resting head in hands
Wishing I had known my place
To take a stand
The errand of a fool
I'm not to reprimand
I'm here to help you through

Is nothing like it seems?
Living in this sequence, a dream
Is nothing like it seems?
Gather broken shards of self esteem

Burning bridges as I cower beneath
Trying to salvage the debris
My devotion tied around your waist lest you fall
no one seems to sense the strain
No one seems to know

I don't begin to proclaim that I know
I can't continue down this road

Dwelling on what has come to pass
no force alive will bring it back
I would know
I can feel the pressure getting steeper with every life lost
You hope that I won't see the light of day in time to come
With no conviction founded
Just judgement contorted based on lust
Give me strength
Your assumption brings to a conclusion of no consequence
and I refuse to play into your hands for your appeal

Inadequate, Inadequate
I know
I know
I know
I know
I've hoped
I've hoped
you'll see me

Turn back time
Reason why
Break neck speed
History

Waiting
Waning
Exasperating
Unstrung
Tethered
Hoping forever

No! I tried to settle bets with my own soul
Bless my lips for the first time before you don't
Gripping to the last touch of your hand I grow to loathe
Hope that you remember just how far I'll go
I'll spend the rest of my life wishing I'm enough

Resist.
Resist.
Resist.

Resist.
Resist.
Resist.


Tesseract - Eden 2.0

Lyrics:

Souvenirs sustain life
Souvenirs of flesh and bone

Waste them all for wealth and gain
When the time comes you'll know

Machinery dredge the sea
All that's left is memory

No

All the time they lie to me
They suffocate
All the time
They're suffering

So when will it end?

It breaks my heart to watch
As we rip this world we have apart

Kill for pleasure
Seven wonders of our history
Endless pleasure
Satisfaction is reality
Careful pleasure
Seven wonders of our history
Empty pleasure

image: http://static.urx.io/units/web/urx-unit-loader.gif


Machinery dredge the sea
All that's left is memory

No
No
No
No

Machinery bled the sea
No
You protect this misery

Sacrifice
No
Sacrifice

Machinery dredge the sea
All that's left is memory

All the time they lie to me
They suffocate
All the time
They're suffering

So when will it end?

The Contortionist - The Source (first time i heard this particular track, i immediately felt like i had listened to the whole thing many many times before, have felt strong personal attachment to it since)

Lyrics:

"A wave of intuition, washed over me."



The Contortionist - The Source Rediscovered

Lyrics:

"When will we rediscover love is all we need?"




TesseracT - Tourniquet

Lyrics:

"I'll wait for you; run wild and aspire
Thrive, burn young fire
When you say "fight back" our love won't tire
Unweathered and untethered light

I promise you and I will see it through
You lay dreaming
No time to sleep as I begin to weep
Life is fleeting
I tighten fast inside your tourniquet
Stop the bleeding
Your tenderness, your softened skin
All I needed

Your love is my tourniquet
Learn to rise, contain the pressure
This was supposed to be no miracle
Bow down because I'm under pressure once again

I promise you, I promise you
Take my strength
I honour you with everything
Take my strength
I promise you and I will see it through
You lay dreaming?
The endless light you shine on me
All I needed"



TesseracT - Hexes

Lyrics:

"Is there something I should know
Of the colours that you show?
I remember those words
In the back of my mind
There is an old phantom

It isn't a secret this mind's shrouded in history
It isn't a secret this mind spirals in disarray
It isn't a secret this mind shudders in mystery
It isn't a secret I find terror in memory

Come close. Don't be afraid,
It's stranger than you think
Desperately opiate, weary
Feverish host to us, teary eyed
History hexes us
History hexes us

Don't look. Don't think
Don't feel. Don't move. Don't breathe
Don't make a sound. It lives. It breathes
In my conscious mind

It isn't a secret this mind's shrouded in history
It isn't a secret this mind spirals in disarray
It isn't a secret this mind shudders in mystery
It isn't a secret I find terror in memory

I live and breathe again
These gory locks, don't you dare forget them
Don't you dare.
Don't you dare.
History hexes us
I breathe again
History hexes us
I live again"

Martin Grech - Open Heart Zoo

Lyrics:

See in through both sides.
Wants more to life.
Know your limits boy
Once more too high.
Complicate your words.
Clever talk won't impress me.
Suffocate your thoughts.
Empty my head.
Fill this full of light.
And open up.




TesseracT - Altered State - Of Mind - Exiled

Lyrics:

Turn your back on everything
Banging heads with prophecy
Lavish in uncertainty

Who will I be?
How will I live to tell what I have seen?
Must I endure the hell that comes with the peace?
An equilibrium of god's own release
What does it all mean?
How can he justify?
How can we breathe
When the stagnancy's choking me?
How can we dream?
The nightmare
The reality
How do you sleep at night?

Take this doubt and fear to your grave

This life of stone
The hand of god I'm too tempted to bribe
I'm getting old and growing paralyzed
We're all alone
Until we let our minds take to the skies
Our blood runs cold yet we remain alive

What's the confliction between heart and mind?
How to bridge the void?
Fuse the two in kinship
To understand your prospects and vistas
And yet to see the love here too
It's more than I can do
Vows and pursuits which at best hollow
I remain torn in two

Just seize the moment
Sabotage the lines
Life turns on a dime
Please cease the torment
It's weighing on my mind
The pressure you apply won't hold

Lavish in uncertainty
Turn your back on everything

I can see why you like it, and it has some alright parts, but I find it too serious, obvious, conforming and soft.  This is what gets me going:

That definitely wasnt created with someone like me intended on listening xD


I bet, however, that this is more along your style :wink: The Contortionist didnt leave the entirety of their Tech Death roots in the past :laugh:

Language Part II - Conspire

I was just going through my backlog of Shroomery emails, saw this post (From July 2nd.. damn, was I that far behind?) and had to come comment on it. The Language album by Contortionist is such a solid record all the way through. I had it playing on YouTube one day and it ended, Tesseract was next up in line which is when I discovered them. First reaction was something like, "How have I not heard of this band?"

But yes, ku-fucking-dos. I've listened to some of their other albums but Language is by far my favorite. Can't stand too much growling, there needs to be some melody for me personally. They have two different versions of that album, both are equally satisfying.


--------------------
A human being is part of a whole, called by us, the "Universe", a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

dude.. i know


Those two bands literally changed the way i feel about music somehow, in a way i cant explain :lol:

was shocked a piece of art so perfect was possible, and equally shocked i would ever make that statement about a metal band xD

Let alone 2.



Also, Periphery, not my favorite, but they have some really good songs as well.

Wait for the chorus on this one, trust me :wink: First blast beat that ever made me smile instead of want to smash something.


wait for the chorus lol :wink:
