Darknight I absolutely love this album! Gloson have created a masterpiece of post metal music that just collides within the death metal style and they truly stand out from the crowd. Amazing album Favorite track: Fabulist.

MindOverFour I do not own a lot of music like this. My basic reference point is Enemy of the Sun era Neurosis, but Gloson has death metal vocals and an unrelenting churning energy. The two longest songs veer into Pelican-y post-metal area, but other songs are more hard hitting. Favorite track: Prowler.

William Fantastic album from start to finish. It has everything I love about this style of music. Great riffs that just keep evolving throughout each track. Would absolutely love to see these guys in concert. Favorite track: Embodiment.

Prowler 08:10
Void Reality blinks Through intervals And smothers a wish (cast away by his neglect) Only crooked roads Flesh decieves Exposes the roots and starves the mind Grace Has been beaten and burned out of the skull (betrayal struck a deafening blow) Sweeps of blighted streams Drowns the faith and feeds the fraud Life Feed the grief Fertilize Drift away Anguish Breach the waves Burn the crops Break the oath Prowler Spinal growths, heavy steps Vertigo takes shape Destroy the road against your will Prowler He who burns in a shelter He who smothers a wish Can’t see the face of the purpose Can’t feel the blaze of the sun Can’t feel the warmth that’s been given Unstable walls coming down Now every step is a burden And every breeze is of doubt
2.
Fabulist 07:34
Smoke engulfs the radiant light From fake and pallid eyes Roads began unfurling only to Wither and burst by decay The river of trust reverse direction Rusty nails pierce the honest Bleed Eyes like starlight tricks Cold blood dries in dismay Gaze upon the soil that’s been given And let it burn, burn away The river of trust reverse direction Dried up blood of the honest Burns, burns away Reach out and spread the word, a divine interference Blow off the tainted steam, confusion reigns Follow the liars path, a part of our nature Embrace the failures, a letdown is always near
3.
Antlers 08:52
I watched the feathers (closely) as they hovered above fire This season has drawn them down to perish (into nothing) The crown is growing, inhale the smog The blaze reminds me of my trail to walk alone I wear the antlers of the Grim The sun deceived me I felt the tremor inside A sudden shift, a new approach No reason to hold on, I detach my wings and fall Counting off my failures to find the measures of crucial weight We live - to surrender We crawl - to perish in dust We dwell - in doubt among fools We starve - in seclusion I wear the antlers of the Grim The sun deceived me Loss
4.
Cringe 10:29
Towering shadows falls upon the beacon light Stretching out arms, ghastly smiles reflects the blaze Crawl back to retrace – the void of broken dreams Fulfill and replace – redeemed only by neglect Crawl through the furnace – a blaze of burning oak is claiming your ghost Rot Feel the flesh crumble, all that you want to be At one with the dirt Disease is clawing through the autumn breeze Choking the breath and stills the current of joy See how much you’ve grown – a fatal embrace Teach what you’ve been shown – and see past the horrors Sole, burned, desolate road
5.
Specter 04:19
You are a lighthouse towards a minefield Where I find comfort in broken glass Neither a blessing or a curse Lingering spirit of my shell, you're home I can not see you, but you complete me I combine with nothing to become all I embrace thee, my specter of failure My failure
6.
Embodiment 11:14
We are all lost In the sea of failure Endlessly searching For the shores Running away From the vultures Driven by hope To maybe one day Die with memories Not with dreams

about

Gloson Sweden

In the summer of 2012 in Sweden, a group of individuals came together with a solitary goal in mind, to create dark music offset with the smallest glimmer of hope. Instead of being inspired by political religious themes, the band turned to their own personal and internal wastelands to see what would manifest from their subconscious; writing within this very cruel world. ... more
