Lyrics: ”Colossus”

Colossus
Colossus
Crushed under the weight of the Colossus

I hear
I see
I feel
Your fear

Hear me
Hear my trembling voice of thunder

See me
See my realm of blood and splendor

Feel me
Worship me, adore surrender

Fear me
Fear my all consuming anger!

See, feel my, fear my all consuming hate!

I am a monolith
Erect
Perpendicular
Pointing to the sky

Unattainable
Inaccessible
Blinding
Clarity for the crowd

False
Direction
Sacred to the masses
Deviant divine

Guiding
Leading all the ignorants
Leaving all the innocents to die

By the sight of your demise
I will feast from the horror in your eyes
and by the weight of my punishing hand
I will leave all the innocents to die

Colossus

Look into the mouth of hades and
stare into the eyes of Erebos
into madness, into despair
and suffer at the feet of Sisyfos
crushed under the weight Colossus

Traitors, fools beware
of the Colossus

Blinded by the light of Helios
Those who dare usurp my throne shall die
Die by the hands of Thanatos
They shall feel the heavy weight from my hands of stone

Colossus
Breath the air of the deceit
Colossus
Feel the weight of your defeat
Colossus
Never stray from the common line
Colossus
Crushed under the weight of the colossus

Invincible
Perpetual
Colossus

Insatiable
Unbreakable
Colossus

Ouroborus
Consuming us
Colossus

Crushed
Under the weight of the colossus

[DaMaGeRR]

Petrov from Entombed would be proud. Awesome song with old school european death metal vibes.

[davisius]

These guys keeps getting better with every release!

[adazlord]

Congratulations and thank you! Never heard of this band, but this song reminds me of my youth. It's like living in 1990 again, and that's good!! No over-complication and over-technique, which is typical these days, just the sufficiently simple, minimal death metal, with just enough melody.

[__gustavorojas]

these guys are definitely one of the greatest death metal bands alive.

[xshinratenseix]

Hopefully they drop a new album this year

[LordAbhartach]

"...into madness...into despair..."
Crushing track.Baest never fail! Here's hoping for a new album in 2024!!.🔥💀🤘

[djs-]

LOVE listening to this on the way to Wed Mass & Sunday Worship Service 💀

[VanOpstalK]

My neck is broken now ...what a banger!

[TabooKid]

The opening riff had my jaw hanging... Gotta check you guys out!

[JazzyJay]

This band is keeping death metal alive.

[AndrewJShirley]

Bands goes HARD! Awesome. Saw them at Bloodstock 2022 and they totally blew me away. Ran into them in the VIP area and they were so so stoked and generally happy to be there and have sold out of merch days before Bloodstock due to the reaction on the circuit. Good on them and will be going to the London show soon.

[britdolls]

Really cool video. Man, I'm so tired of those ultra-HD metal videos. Glad I found them.

[pakoti]

My first experience of this band - playing this video on 0.75x because I was just learning something by Meshuggah and slowed it down.

God Damn.

[l.steinbrenner]

This is so damn good that I can only smile. Baest never disappoints.

[davidsorge]

this is so RAW, PURE; NAKED OLD SKOOL BUT YET NEW freaking LOVE IT

[ThatDolanGuy]

Best thing I've heard since Carcass

[protolexis]

Stoked to see these boys in Dublin in a week

[thesliveagain]

Old school death metal truly has made a comeback. For once something traditional other than death core. Don’t get me wrong I like death core. But I’d like to see modern take on traditional death metal. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🎸

[Foorythegreat]

That opening riff could've been off Carcass' Swansong, easily. Meant in the best way! Very Death 'n roll-y!

[saschasomers]

Great song! Greetings from your friends from Maastricht and Helmond.
