--XVIII The Obscene Underbelly--
Told to lower your head, shuffle along
Words overflow with resentment; spiral from vile tongue
Robbing you of yourself, of your worth
hate made manifest, violence unearthed
The message is clear. The barriers of our society were built to reflect “natural” ideals.
The forced self-censure and fleeting identity, an echo to your unbeliefs
Free the forces long repressed; from the family that shaped me to the institutions that have trapped me
Of walls to ensure no one violates their role, the socially imposed invisibility
slaves to hated control; in ignorance and dependence
slaves to hated control; dominated and repressed
Your biased bigotry cannot constrain and control me
withdraw from a reality that demands silence
one that owns identity upheld by violence
don’t try to ease the tension with a joke;
it won’t be respected and one day you’ll suffocate on your words

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
The Italian hardcore group’s latest is a powerful, claustrophobic album that rarely lets up its mathy, metallic assault. Bandcamp Album of the Day Feb 6, 2018

This album is haunting, beautiful, and cathartic. One of the best post-black metal albums out there. I bought a cd on Discogs, but needed the vinyl. Доберман Сатз
