X Wild Alaskan Salmonella X As They Burn's previous album, released ten years ago, is a hidden gem and an example of metalcore done both very well and remarkably different. I'm glad to say their recent reincarnation shows continued forward momentum in progressing their sound further away from metalcore and drifting towards a groovy, dreamy nu-metal. As They Burn are on fire on Ego Death, aflame with creativity. Good luck this go-round, fellas.

FFO Bleed, Deftones. Favorite track: θ. UNABLE TO CONNECT.

If you're falling into pieces Unable to connect to your emotions Born for a higher cause We will stay our ground cause we're unable to connect I know it sounds spooky and strange but This life makes me feel like I'm looking at my own funerals throwing roses at my coffin My head is filled with doubts My head is filled with doubts Unable to connect We got to learn to live inside this broken temple This broken temple Unable to connect Fuck it let's go All my demons keep banging on my back door They want me to join them like I'm already dead Dead Dead Dead Dead I'm not fuckin dead Dead Dead Dead Dead Don't try me I choose my path, and I can't look back no more My only chance to get on well with the devil trapped inside my head INSIDE MY HEAD My head is filled with doubts Unable to connect We got to learn to live inside this broken temple This broken temple Unable to connect

Tell me why can't you feel all the pain you endure? Would you stop feeding the fire that consumes you? Distance between me and your void I'm out of reach the claws of time I'm just a thousand miles away from where I used to dwell Will be the one? Will you try again? Will you find the key to step in my head? It's a long way up to the surface Comprehension of my ego I'm just a thousand miles away from where I used to dwell Will be the one? Will you try again? Will you find the key to step in my hеad? Step in my hеad! (Step in my head Will you try again?) We all dying to live the dream We all trying to find the missing pieces We will live for, we will stand for We will fight for this shit we all need to find The missing pieces We will live for, we will stand for We will fight for this shit we all need to find We all dying to live the dream We all trying to find the missing pieces We all dying to live the dream We all trying to find the missing pieces

I'm sorry I just want to breathe Except my lungs are filled with mud I don't know how but I just need To reach down into the Earth I took a look at my life And realized I was not delusional So the world kept spinning, spinning I found my way, I'll be ok Because I found the cure To heal my broken heart and soul I'm sorry I just want to breath Except my lungs are filled with mud I don't know how but I just need To reach down into the Earth Over my dead body Gunshots to the ones I love, love, love God I won't regret a thing I said I won't regret a thing I was God I won't bow down before a lie Come unto me all my idols God, God, God I'm sorry I just want to breathe Except my lungs are filled with mud I don't know why but I just need To reach down into the Earth

η. MONSTER 04:47
I'm just another man with a fucked up brain No more chemicals in my blood I've got to live this life Give me a knife so I can show you what it's like To feed the living dead I stuffed the cake with poisonous snakes Monsters are crawling all over this place When tomorrow comes we won't be the ones When tomorrow comes You will die anyway Who's party is this? All hope is gone and my idols are dead All hope is gone I'm just another kid with a fucked up brain Let's form a line And get shot in cold blood Getting ratchet makes you feel so alive Just remember this is what you came for This is why you've been begging so hard I'm glad you took my invitation Getting ratchet, getting wasted I'm so glad you took my invitation You cannot blame me To be one hell of a freak I can try to get you away but somehow These monsters got you under control They've got all of you Under control They've got so many of you They've got me under control They've got me under control

He is the sneaky one He creeps into my every thoughts He feeds on my desires and dwell in my mind Feasting upon my imperfections He will destroy, he will destroy everything you love I'm tired of being the perfect puppet In the hands of the invisible, the invincible When it goes out of control It can do and undo anything you believe in You believe in! But this time I'll go where you don't expect me You won't be there to cheat on me anymore But this time there's nothing more you can take away Mystical power subsists in me Fueled by megalomaniac brothers I was a once a fallen god in search of light In search of The Light Why did the elohims die? Who are the elohims? Why did the elohims left? Who are the elohims? Why did they die? Everything is messed up inside me But this time I'll go where you don't expect me You won't be there to cheat on me anymore But this time there is nothing more you can take away

α. ANGEL 05:12
I've been waiting for my angel To get me out my sleep To help me to deal with my demons Breaking through my path The devil is on every doorstep Claiming for his rights Waiting for any sign of weakness Feeding on my doubts and fears Everything inside me Could have burned with a single spark When many would have tried To put out the fire You knew how to let the flames light my path My mind, my soul Despite all you gave it all a chance to survive To me, the forgotten god You teach me how to never stop He's feeding on my doubts He's feeding on my rage I feel like I'm stuck with the devil in my cage I'm looking for another place to dwell Live my life, get some rest so I can be myself I've been silent for so long But just know that I'm still here You gave a chance to my life despite all It's a new dawn, it's a new day My faith is bound to yours I've learned that nothing but love Can unite the divided All these memories are pushing me away Everything inside me Could have burned with a single spark When many would have tried to put out the fire You knew how to let the flames light my path To light my path! To light my path! Il y a des choses qu'on ne dit pas Des choses qui nous effraie Et encore on ne dit pas tout Constantes hallucinations baignées dans un flot d'incompréhension Un brouillard, une tempête Là où l'œil ne parvient pas à voir Le cœur lui continue d'aimer J'ai encore trouvé des questions à mes réponses Toujours plus haut Là où les battements de nos cœurs amplifient leurs folies Ange d'un jour, démon éternel Il n'y aucun univers qu'il n'ait point exploré Les ailes armées de courage Le cœur rempli d'allégresse Au plus haut des tréfonds célestes, Il demeure, se perd Et s'en ira pour enfin mieux se retrouver It's a new dawn, it's a new day My faith is bound to yours I've learned that nothing but love Can united the divided Everything inside me Could have burn with a single spark
