COGNIZANCE return with their sophomore album UPHEAVAL . Their signature sound of modern death metal laced with undeniable groove and technical prowess seals the deal that they’re ones to watch on the thriving UK death metal scene.
Despite UPHEAVAL channelling an all out riff-driven assault, the record is embellished by a rich sense of melody, emotive guitar solos and some of the most punishing vocals in the genre. COGNIZANCE once again demonstrates that speed and technicality can fully embrace groove and hooks - to compelling effect. UPHEAVAL was mixed and mastered by legendary Swedish producer Fredrik Nordstrom (At The Gates, Architects, Dimmu Borgir), adding the final cutting edge to the record.
LYRICS:
I find myself drifting
Narrowly avoiding immediate observation
Transfixed by what could be
Bias embedded deep into my skull
Inter dimensional interference
Consuming all
Distorting into self-induced fiction
Architecture of madness
A deceitful concoction
Tearing apart the great framework of our limited existence
Immaterial restraint twisting the corridor of time
An ethos diminished to extinction
Foreshadowed by frenetic tendencies
Divergent philosophies emerging
A sign of the times
Aeon sickness
Affinity to the toxins I breed
Self made horror
Unwelcome occupant
Self made horror through Aeon Sickness
Distorting into self induced fiction
Architecture of madness
A deceitful concoction
Tearing apart the great framework of our limited existence
Immaterial restraint twisting the perceived corridor of time
Frozen in a feedback loop
The body changes in composition
While horrors grow ever present
Battling with anecdotal memories
An ethos diminished to extinction
Frenetic bias
All consuming misery
Aeon sickness
Affinity to the toxins I breed
Self made horror
Unwelcome occupant
Aeon Sickness.
