Saw an ibex
on the side of the road
Writhing in pain
eyes half closed
Bleed to death
hill so far away
bone and flesh
eyes and skin
bleed to death
landscape bent
horizon wide, the end of the day
pock-marked skin
blistered from the sun
covered in emeses
despondent cries
We continued to walk
on this road so long
and I'm not quite sure
how far we've gone
orange and yellow commune
yellow and red walk the dunes
under a gold-bloom white moon

I'm a little late to this party. I got lost along the way because I kept mistaking this for a Locrian album. I finally paid attention and discovered a fantastic doom album. Dark and heavy, just the way it should be. Reverb on the vocals remind me of Monolord. The Goon

I can’t believe I’m just now finding this band. I lucked into finding them by reading an old interview with The Skull members Eric Wagner, Ron Holzner, and Jeff Olson (All three formerly of Trouble, too). They’ve been broken up for almost a decade now. Such a shame; they should have and still should be HUGE! The vocalist has some amazing pipes! If you listen to the first song and don’t buy it, it’s quite possible you have zero taste when it comes to heavy music. Jason Gilbert
