Bill Love it!! , it's odd and refreshing but I can't pin a style to it , progressive I guess but it's all over the place like a mad woman's shit and that's why I like it Favorite track: Graffiti Mausoleum.
GeN2Mo

GeN2Mo After what felt like a century, finally Ryan Walls second album... and it's nothing like what I would have expected. But in the best possible way. Thoroughly off-kilter Progressive Metal permeated by a story-telling approach oozing out of almost acted vocals, dramatic melodic arcs and a hyper-conscious use of various stylistic elements from all over the genre. Carrying a thick atmosphere between deep resignation, controled aggression and a slight silver lining. Favorite track: Fission.

Windstorm 02:41
(First explosion...) Stuck in the reactor Chemicals sleeping inside Watch them wake it all up Death into the air of the windstorm Children into the air of the windstorm Can't you see the misery that you've caused by being yourself? Living in an effort to subsist and to survive Yet you've already lost yourself to the unending process And already given your self to the domination of competing nations conquests Isn't it the worst that everyone you know and love, they're already exposed to the source Condemned to a life of samples taken from the wrist The remaining old men will turn to dust The city will turn to stone abandoned and left alone Can't you see what you're releasing?! Into the air... (Second explosion...) Death into the air of the windstorm Children into the air of the windstorm Storm! Storm! Storm!

Atrophy 04:33
(Third explosion...) In a half alive machine the toxin is released The fumes will rise into the plume and turn you all to beasts Stay away I've already turned Turned Turned... Stay away... Under the family's roof Everything is fine They celebrate with wine The newest power lines But something is off tonight They celebrate in dark with the windows open wide Their little girl begins to cry (Eventually she will atrophy) Soldiers barge right in To move them from the hive Leave it all behind We're all but out of time The parents decide to stay To await the end of wars But the fighting is everywhere The war is in the air Outside In a wartorn state These walls will form cells Nothing can stand up to resist this Fallout Cascades as the new rain Like the people scattering Drenched in pain Drenched in pain In an hour endless thoughts will leave your brimming mind Embrace this clarity to see exactly what you are In a half alive machine the toxin was released The fumes have spread into the plume and turned you all to beasts! Take one last deep breath (Where has everyone gone...) Our surface is barren now Everyone's gone under At least the little one will be Sent away

Immolate 04:58
It's so cold in this bed... Then she woke to the sound of children playing Hearing them run away Then she woke to the sound of something baying Knowing she'd never leave the bed... Shake me till I'm free Change me till I'm free Shake this sickness out of me and shake unconsciously Shake me till I'm free Change me till I'm free Shake before I break out How could this young girl live Fostered by these stupid people Where were her parents Where have they gone Mother... Father... How could you just leave her to fade out of here Fire forming early In an embers core Flowing from this idle minded girl The physics of pain drive her to learn This yearn for love will make that fire burn Immolate Immolate With open eyes See yourself burn Immolate Immolate ( Through coldness There is a faint warmth in the night From the reactor From home ) Then when she wakes in the night She thinks she hears the old rail running A call to belong amongst the stray wolves That ignites electric impulses to get up Fire forming early In an embers core Flowing from this idle minded girl The physics of pain drive her to learn This yearn for love will make that fire burn Warden: There isn't anyone out there Past that blood-starved zone You won't get far You won't survive You will die Stay in bed Stay in bed Stay in bed -end transmission- But she is just a girl Looking out the window And she will cross the fence line By herself!

I followed you to this glade I thought you were another girl I can't remember her name at all... So why don't I tell you mine I'm the Spray Paint Prince Up high in the tree Even though I'm up I've fallen beyond what you could believe I'm the Spray Paint Prince In the mismatched suit Compulsively spreading that sign on anything I can I'm the Spray Paint Prince Something's digging in me Where I put my thoughts and has been for one century I'm the Spray Paint Prince I can't remember much Alas I left all of my love back in the paint And Threw all my hate In the cans Because I am the Prince I find those marks that aren't mine And I scrape them away I leave that space so clean for a saint A place for me I'm not someone special Someone so hard to understand If you take my hand And help me be strong I'll show you where you need to go I feel so numb With the animals All lost in our natural direction I feel so numb But it feels quite good! I'm the Spray Paint Prince

On this tunnel's rail You'll fight yourself As you're drifting from connection joints And blowing through man made holes Descend until you can't see your face Descend until the light begins to fade Descend, the only way through is north Descend, don't get lost along the cord like I was lost Have you seen the faces in the dark? Eternally pursuing something they lost... In their labyrinth they've forgotten who they are Cast out so long ago To fill these tombs They find heat and stay close Their train is gone Down these long moaning halls Do you hear it? Get out of here Let it all be the path Let go of where you go You're broken now Search between this splitting halls To know the truth You're broken down This unconfigured slate collapse Caves beneath frail insight When dawn is here Through open cracks Believe in your will This is the first stop Through fortitude You've found a way through dust and mist But know that this tunnel goes beyond This rail goes far beyond

Have you seen the child's room? It's bathed in this familiar afterglow With a broken apartment roof Let's see where your reflection plays We'll see where your reflection plays It all opens to familiar streets and stairs and were walking amongst this leftover construction In shaded streets there was ancient peace but now What is there left to find? Locked doors to a place that you once called home Around the side is a hole showing wars reform Spotlight on the floor she's been eaten alive Skeleton mother why did you stay behind ? Have you seen the child's room? It's filled with these growing sores And that vacated child's mirror Won't you look into it? Can't you see? She's not the same Look to find Rotten toys Faded youth is how she's changed Small mind shame Left behind Now you've seen the child's room And bathed in its moonlit shades And looked in that child's mirror And seen that girl looking back and she's someone else She's not the same anymore How could we believe that we are our pasts? How fast we change without the child's room... Go! She's gone... Gone Gone Gone [Throat singing by the Prince]

what will i blend into? will it change every piece of me? will it burn? will it feed? will I drown? will I feel? I saw you washed out on the floor with your machines trying to reset possibilities between here, now and the spirit realm I'll take your place where you left off hoping the configuration is still the same and we might be like we used to Air into blood makes system 2 react again with the stress of every particle I know in reverberation I'm still in disbelief it works as it was but I'll throw myself through any piece of machinery for you... what will I blend into? will I change? will It burn? will it eat? will it drown every piece of me? will i feel? Right now, the only thing in my head is becoming a ghost Right now, the only thing that I fear is becoming a ghost Right now, the only thing that I need is someone else Right now, the only thing that I need is someone else They harbor ghosts in parallel one way to see the end of the world they harbor ghosts like us who can't bear the weight of the real they harbor ghosts... they harbor ghosts... choose: now or the outskirts of oblivion where I might change my ways Right now, the only thing in my head is becoming a ghost Right now, the only thing that I fear is becoming a ghost Right now, the only thing that I need is someone else Right now, the only thing that in my head is becoming a ghost ...becoming a ghost...

Fission 05:54
I've seen you you fell in weeks ago can you feel me too? I feel so close to you I feel you so much this is the afterlife... I'm sure I've known you since you were so young am I you? Here we are behind oblivion where the start and end is happening this is your new home we know you'll stay forever! In the edge between existences the versed image you envisioned is missing it's with these new eyes you see your soul ripple this is your new name I know you but not of our origins you are the only one dear that can save me here I feel that heartbeat through strange distance... and you'll feel me too! No, she is getting farther away! She's fallen through don't let her fall through the different levels through heaven through hell through purgatory through heaven through hell through heaven through hell through purgatory She's in the middle of mental pathways She's falling through layers through thoughts and patterns She's going too fast to catch Separation... She's going too fast... I feel you I feel that heart through you If you leave it deletes everything two cells from one both to die Fission Fission Fission Fission

Part 1: Lyrics of the Survivor Alas, another age gone by surveying these grounds Surviving this hollow head has been my high this whole damn time In the center there's a tomb where everyone is buried--family and strangers And they won't respect the desecration but I must leave my mark One final time This pathway shows our legacy Even in the midst of silence There is power in the atmosphere Part 2: Trail of Intelligence -The mind starts to wander- And even if the dust will settle it still won't be frozen They'll come back to reclaim the waste And even if the living structures bleed like humans do They'll cut down the way to form anew But war will return... My mind is coming back to me My mind is like every poor soul that lost the grip of my hand I thought my world would return to heal itself I thought my world would return to justify itself That half of me would return to save me from these cycles But at last I'm finally here Part 3: Desecration Descend I will descend You can't stop me Descend You can't stop me now Descend I never meant to raid In the torchlight I can see the bones piled high Festering Now I won't be shy How do I resist this spray paint It's so anonymous Just one disturbance the power starts to wake Part 4: Caving In -The earth starts to shake- -The puzzle pieces shift- Spiraling back up The surface is near My world is falling apart Giving up I'll become one of the strangers anyways! Memories on top of Memories on top of Memories on top of Memories Are leaving the wasteland But where will they go? Memories Are leaving the wasteland But where will they go?

Concrete 08:04
Lay your liquid handprint into the settling mold Enjoy the fleeting feeling of fame it holds And when the imprint's overtaken by the mass Chisel your name so it'll never change Concrete Our new primordial soup To pour over our feet Concrete Our new primordial soup To crystallize the past Lay those slabs down as much as you want 10.000.000 tons for 10.000.000 years And everyday well forget about yesterday and pour as much as we can Always remember... This land was barren till we came at the end of the day with gods right hand to wash villages away to pour our new method down So get out and tell the neighbors to watch it rise! Inhabit the sky! Keep climbing high! Replace the last tenants! (Concrete...) Please don't mill it back up Cause I like the way this looks today Please don't mill it back up This must remain Everything must remain the same! Concrete! When will it end? There is no future for us Between these borderlines Never will climb over until we unite under one soul one mind one voice one orange sky two eyes shut under concrete then we'll build together then we'll build together... :) (...Concrete...) Watch It RISE!
