Father of Serpents spreads corruption and death Locusts digest the last of purity’s flesh The blue seas turn to black The lambs have fallen silent The sinners bleeding black The world ablaze with violence Annihilation, inferno wings of death No god can wash the venom clean from their breaths Clouds darken, skies open Trembling he descends Salivating, venom dripping A slow hiss, and now the void’s embracing Mother of vultures, release your brood Feed on the drained and rotting, lord of the psued Pray Mistress Death Make the liars fall silent Drowning in blood Feed the endless violence Emerald eyes are watching filled with malice Pale sun's light shines through after pretense’s death Clouds darken, skies open Trembling he descends Salivating, venom dripping A slow hiss, and now the void’s embracing Blood and thunder Pulled down under Thrashing, thrusting The end of me Clouds darken, skies open Trembling he descends Wind’s screaming, guts wrenching May be doom, but it’s no coward’s ending Clouds darken, skies open Trembling he descends Salivating, venom dripping A slow hiss, and now the void’s embracing

Writhe 03:21
The death of all that ever was (Is, will be) A sickness stirring in our blood (Consuming) All that they've done has led to this The years of violent sacrilege Consuming all of them There's nowhere left Now the smoke blots out the sun (Hatred) Consumes their minds (Tearing) Apart the sky (Destroy) All that's in their sight (Mankind) Watch them as they Writhe! And as the fire claims them all (Wipes the slate clean) The hеavens hear their final calls (Pathеtic pleas) Now comes the silence that they sought All that they had has turned to rot 5 A barren rock Free from it's disease Seems their hunger finally was appeased (Hatred) Consumes their minds (Tearing) Apart the sky (Destroy) All that's in their sight (Mankind) Watch them as they Writhe! Writhe! In agony As hatred eats their minds Die! The atrophy Of all that they had loved (Hatred) Consumes their minds (Tearing) Apart the sky (Destroy) All that's in their sight (Mankind) Watch them as they Writhe! Writhe! Writhe! Writhe!

The dark abyss spawns wretched life The floods of blood, the evil eye The gentle acid on the tongue Ubiquity, our sacred song A gaping wound, the dying walls Strange liquids ooze, the birthing calls Ophidian obsession burns The rose beckons with all it's thorns Pray to drown As we lay The heathens beg before The Softest Grave! Entwining souls and twisting minds So sweet the taste, the heart divine Corruptor of virginity Bestower of sanguinity In the grasp We arе flayed We beg and pray bеfore The Softest Grave! Friction flesh Burns! Now in darkness Yearns!

Pinned beneath her legs Trapped inside her warm embrace Her body begs And her beauty fascinates Emerald invitations Pull me into dark invocations I feel pure elation As she fingers my pulsation Blood runs so warm Tingle and burn God how I yearn Losing my hold Desire undressed Needles in my skin I struggle for breath (Breath) forced from my lungs As the cold steel penetrates Agony and pleasure melt And become one the same Her hand inside my chest Gently strokes my viscera Dreams and nightmares can’t compare But I’m never waking up Tightened grip around my core Rip it out and watch me pour Licking up all of the gore Excruciating, I want more Take all you want Too late to fight Take out a bite Writhing in pleasure Screaming in pain Losing my sight as I’m fading away Lost in the bliss Earth moves for thee Rapturous and free My severed veins Bleed on her breasts She eats out my heart As she fucks me to death!

Blackblood 03:35
Blackblood, gliding Across ebony seas Searching through a dead man’s eye for Pretty dreck to seize Ancient wisdom cast aside Blackened spirits now ally Turning the tide Stygian eyes Cold, dead inside Void will encroach as Blackblood rides Black sun, rising The ritual is done Lightning spit and space tears There’s nowhere left to run Blackblood, dying Sheds an inky tear Without the sun his gold won’t shine And all he has is fear Stygian eyes Cold, dead inside Void will encroach as Blackblood Rides through the night Spreading his blight Feeding on spite Hark! Blackblood’s spirit owns the storm tonight Stygian eyes Cold, dead inside Void will encroach as Blackblood Rides through the night Spreading his blight Feeding on spite Hark! Blackblood cries!

March to Sea 04:58
Down to the lair of the rattlesnakes To break all their chains and backs Take a deep dive into locust land And bring all your maniacs These fields are defiled with brother’s blood Their fortresses built on bones We’re the inferno, we bring rebirth And the sea will take us home They rape and they beat and they torture and maim They fester in hatred, it drives them insane So spit on their cheap plaques and dance on their graves Infectious and vile we stand up and raze Hail to fire March to sea Neckties, eidolons, and bayonets Come sing a hymn for the dead Dig up torpedoes and blackened roots By rivers where angels have bled History’s stained but the future can change We’ll crush this misery So join our procession, conjure up hell Claim eternal victory! Burn all their bridges and derail their trains Their festering hatred it drives us insane So dance on their cheap plaques and spit on their graves Infectious and vile we stand up and raise Hell’s wrath as we Hail to fire March to sea x2 Fire meets water Salt to earth Smoke envelops Black and scorched Hail to fire March to sea x3

Ode to Ogtha 05:20
Here we go again Crawling into bed Dreaming of a cockroach Try to feel your flesh An exoskeleton In my reverie engrossed Morphing skin and bones Turning red and brown Beguiling antennae Pheromone insane Never can attain Everyday it makes me scream Perverse, you pervade Can’t escape your face Stare into your compound eyes Slipping into bed Swallowing my dread Every single time I die Mandibles so sweet Sucking in your heat I can’t remember why I fight it Crawl inside my brain Chained up and enslaved I love it and I can’t deny it Pull me close with six limbs and I’m going down Cockroach fantasies turn me upside Lay your eggs, take my seed, lay me down, fill my needs Ogtha baby, you’re all I need Here I go again Captor of my sin Dreaming of a blattodea Obsessive fixate Memories elate Still I know that you’re not real Mezmerizing strokes Make me feel hollow Make me feel so excited Thrown away the key Endless reverie I’m fallen but I think I like it Pull me close with six limbs and I’m going down Cockroach fantasies turn me upside Lay your eggs, take my seed, lay me down, fill my needs Ogtha baby, ahhhhhh!

Chimera 05:37
Abortion of science, ruler of critters Designed to be sold off to the highest bidder Sign of the end of what’s natural Mixture of two seas, flightless admiral Soar above the lands Search for love that it won’t find Solus avem Only of its kind Desperately scours through it’s desolation Cry out in agony, soul isolation Bitter and hollow It feeds to no end No solace, no kin, it forever distends Soar above the lands Search for love that it won’t find Solus avem Only of its kind To belong is its only desire Be embraced by the grass or the fire Will its ardor ever be known? Will there be any end to its throes?

The light Is mine The light Is mine Should sweet skies collapse and fall Pray my lighthouse still stands tall Be my anchor, guiding light Strike down devious shadow rites Should our horizons dissolve The skies and seas becoming one In vermillion reveries Bleeding through eternity The light Is mine! O Poseidon, hear this cry You’ve swallowed all we’ve calcified But you can’t take my light! Should the siren’s sing off key When tentacles can’t break the sea My light eternal dominates Above the deluge, consecrate Should the waves e’er reach so high The tower falls and great light dies Melt my bones down into wax And feed my carcass to the rats The light is mine! The light is mine! O great Neptune, Triton, Proteus Poseidon, hear this cry! You’ve swallowed all we calcified Corroded by the crashing tides My incandescence upon high Amidst torrential blight But you can’t take my light!

about

In writing Father of Serpents, we took the opportunity to explore different genres of metal and combine them in a way that would not alienate our following. Lyrically, the album explores a vast depth that encompasses mythology, fantasy, social issues, and... having sex with cockroaches.

In collaborating with producer Dave Kaminsky, we were pushed to musical boundaries beyond expectations. The result is 44 minutes of gut-wrenching, mind-blistering, in-your-face metal. Enjoy motherfuckers.
