Paramnesia

1.
Mare 05:42
Pregnant with filth Exit the womb Of sperm and ovum Incubated waste stirs Torn from this solar tomb Unbirthed disgrace Release anmiotic vomit Inhale atmospheric breath Entangled in the umbilical noose The abortion frees Submerge in this sea of light And bloom like algae
2.
Terse 01:26
How quickly it becomes A revenant once born Insolent, Impudent Foul mutated sperm Devolved into this beast Horrendus form Blind with ignorance Turn loose upon this world
3.
Khaz'neh 07:49
Crushing under immense regret The weight of loyalty Trapping, soul raped before you rise Devotion leaves you old Crawl... drag stone to build your shrine Embrace the flesh, bow Fall... as landscapes grasp for air, breathe in Absorb god, swallow all Awaking to futures Rituals erase the past Fleeting, ancient pathways crumble It swarms out from the gate No ground on which to pray Falling upward to the light Suffocate - Inhale souls Spores of flesh Asphyxiate Crawl... drag flesh to create man Consume the stone, fall Burn... a rotting carcass sleeps Unbirth its throne, writhe Wake... bury god in the ground Lurking, a dormant corpse lies
4.
Solar Barge 08:07
Begin the migration, unfeeling death Upon unsacred earth Uncoiling, underground, a steaming mess Go forth through the dark Onward the procession march Vacate this barren husk Consulting unholy tablets Heavenly bodies lure the mass Fibrous sinew becomes weak The vessel is its tomb A receptacle of desperation To renezvous with oblivion Into that which begat endless chaos MONOLITH clothed with woven skin MEGALITH vast unpure Death, feast to digest Excrete anew
5.
Husk 03:42
Castrated, prostrate in prayer Address THE VOID, helpless Advancing forward, upon the horde THE MONOLITH tires, erect with force Cumulus obscures heavenly light Nebulous invasive filth Degraded, agape and raw Messiah, his divine will Perverted, emaculated whore Obscure the Sun Chain the god Expose the maw Hearald the return
6.
Noctilucent, eclipsed by the Sun Desparation, encroaching Solar tomb Flagellation, scarred by your descent to the ocean Solaris, ungodly sea, churns with consternation Turbulence rips at the flesh to mould the structure Sacred ritual usurps corporeal vessel Messianic, twelve tones your guide Transcendence, the Zone lies unspoiled Approach THE CHASM Entwined with vestigial forms Our anitpodean bretheren Of unwanted foreign particles Shed this godless passion Unwelcome petulant hope Lay bare on the ashes Exhaled as smoke Unable to repent Dissolve into dust Invoke a cosmic deity To ignite the husk Helpless thirst for light Shackles brace all time Clouded thoughts diffused Elements torn in spite Altered state obscures Vacuum screams death hymns Unfolding barren wasteland Suspended eternal void

Putrid, dilated cervix rejects Bloated sack of foetid pulp Defecated once again Spawned anew to decompose Remove the foreskin shroud Cosmic Mohel tears the dermis Reborn into ritualistic being Incomplete mind and phallus Sentient lurking afterbirth Unraped virgin dimensions Screaming columns show the path Towering mass of living meat Unhuman lamps with weeping scars Bow down in deference Baptised in Khaz'neh's bowel Anointed with menstrual blood Bathed in the creator's seed Unloved by his congregants Defiled by this sacred lust Devotion is renounced Seek out unholy matriarch Retreat into the solar womb Stitch shut gateway of light Stillborn zygote, aborted life Self devouring virus Self righteous sycophant Self destructing automaton Ad infinitum

about

Altars' critically acclaimed debut 'Paramnesia', originally released in 2013 will finally be available again on CD format through Everlasting Spew Records! Dont miss the chance to find out were the cult and the praise originated!

Enigmatic Australian Death Metal entity ALTARS rose sharply to prominence with the release of their 2013 debut ‘Paramnesia’ (Nuclear Winter Records/Blood Harvest). The record quickly drew widespread acclaim for the band's dynamic, forward thinking compositions — hearkening to the genre's forebears whilst carving a niche all their own.
After a premature halt, in part due to a debilitating illness affecting co-founding member Cale Schmidt (vocals and bass, see also Monomakh), ALTARS entered a long period of dormancy. Guitarist Lewis Fischer joined the ranks of Melbourne outfit Ignivomous, while drummer Alan Cadman entered the fold of Adelaide’s occult StarGazer. All the while, ‘Paramnesia’ continued to gain status as a cult classic and glimpse of the band's true potential.
After eight years of silence, 2021 saw a revived ALTARS announce its resurrection with the promise of a new full-length album, and then the recruitment of Brendan Sloan (Convulsing) to fill the void on bass and vocals — cementing the band as a force to be reckoned with once more.

For fans of Ulcerate, Gorguts, Portal, Dead Congregation.
