In the dawn our monuments dissolved Every tower and pyramid Deconsecrated In a landscape of pure echo In islands of light Ruinless and Unmarred

Basalt Elations Beneath Empyrean A Bituminous Vision Of Feudal Ruins In a Gallery of Mirrors In a Passage of Panoramas The Purgation of our Trace Lustrations to the End

a. "Isostasy" A humid incandesence Illumines this universal clamor Still and Glowering In Fugitive Shadows Toward the sublime mantle A Return to Annihilation A Return to Rheology Worship at the felled altar of Isostasy d: "In Felsic Splendor" Resurrection of our Felsic Splendor Eternity in the midst Of Profound Dusk Projected Endlessly through this void As a veil As an aura As an apparition To awaken the world from its dream of itself

about

Chicago’s blackened noise geniuses LOCRIAN spent the second half of 2012 crafting ‘Return To Annihilation’, their Relapse debut. Locrian have been creating their own brand of epic noise drone for close to a decade, but ‘Return To Annihilation’ is the culmination of their sound. Equal parts black metal, noise and drone, LOCRIAN’s ‘Return To Annihilation’ is a terrifyingly beautiful vision of bright menace. The soundtrack of the bright white lights we’ll all see before the very end of days.
