Death Whistle

I’ve become an anchor sinking in the sand
Human nature.. too much to understand
Imprisoned voices trapped in stone
Hollow just like the bones
Calling out to any who stray too close
Extending an invitation to this life’s conclusion
One gruesome solution.. Too accept it in my soul
Sanity warped; depravity and self destruction..
A call to arms to embrace a culling ov the self
War ov attrition; eroding coherence
The song ov suffering fading into perpetual silence
HARKEN THE END OV TIME
HARK THE END
Demonized by the taunting terror
Suffocating; leaving me breathless
Tormented by this haunting discordant
Depravity; leaving me breathless
How many times must I wish it?
Embrace from death
This mortal breath.. a pain so fucking vivid
To be alone in this life
A world ov demise
Immersed in black light, baptism ov twilight
Immersed in twilight.. A darkness so bright
This world has swallowed me whole
Immersed in twilight
This void swallows me
The will of life stripped for eternity
What have I become.. A hollow shell
Dragged down to hell
A life not mine anymore
Voices trapped in stone invoking my self destruction
Demonized shrieks of agony
Leaving me suspended in tragedy
A blissful silence, the will of life stripped for eternity
At last, the kingdom I longed for.. frozen in time
A land never ending, repetitious cycle
My nevermore

[kobalt]

gray sweatpants to really juice up that deathcore vibe

[attrition]

People dont realize theres actually a Real Aztec Death Whistle in the background of the breakdown. SO sick!

[michaelaylor]

I'm glad they actually incorporated a death whistle in the song

[Rippedshreds]

2021 has literally been the best year for deathcore or just metal in general. It's always nice to see bands expand on their sound and really make themselves stand out.

[drumsnbikes]

The extreme brutality is offset perfectly by the sparkly drumkit.

[BackyardCardistry]

THOSE CLEANS... well this was out of the blue, this song bangs!! Can't wait for this album to be out man

[pantokage]

The production of this album is perfect it’s got that McDonald’s sprite crispyness especially the drums 👌

[DEVYD]

Signs Of The Swarm: “Can’t wait to show everyone these cleans!”

Bassist: “Ight imma head out.”

[Xtortionist]

Everyone’s been sleeping on Signs Of The Swarm. Another fantastic song - album will be in my top albums of the year

[ChLyricsyt]

Producer: “How many breakdowns do you want guys?”

Signs Of The Swarm: “Yes.”

[Zyute.]

No warning. This hit me like a sledgehammer. David and the boys bringing the heat. So filthy!

[terrybowman]

Signs of the Swarm just brings themselves to a higher level, these guys perform heart and soul to bring forth such amazing tracks, mad respect, they definitely one of my fav bands for sure.

[GianProgg]

Signs Of The Swarm with brutality and cleans combined in this one. "Absolvere" is definitely going to be a brilliant entry in their discography 🙌

[markweller]

David’s really settled into his vocal style 💀 Integrating cleans was ballsy in this elitist genre of deathcore/slam, and they were tasteful, meshing well with those filthy vox. Can’t wait for the rest of the album to drop ✊🏻

[disturbedcom]

This has to be my favorite SOTS track so far. The production, the structure, the riffs, the melodies, the sheer relentlessness... Absolvere is going to be my AOTY for sure

[Screamo_Child]

I was so excited I was literally squealing when I saw on Instagram that this dropped. New favorite, obviously

[bradfoster]

The vocalist has a very distinctive style and I fucking love it.

[adamd.]

So we all just gonna talk about the song and ignore one of the most evil, malevolent, esoteric, and obscure music videos in all of death metal? Fucking phenomenal

[ChronicBreakdown]

The cleans really freshen the song up, adds great atmosphere. Also, the ending of this song is MASSIVE.

[sxxrpientes]

This band is reaching new levels of deathcore-ness, i love it.
