Pan said he has never seen the sky
and I insist he must have
“it is blocked by the mass
a great iron beast slowly lying down to rest”
he’d shake his head
clench his fists
fall and scream
“It’s the end! It has come! It’s the end!”
such a frail and wounded friend
I regret slowly backing away
so many lumbering tons attempts to block the sun
I soon forget his warning and then the shadow comes
it’s lain down to rest
how can we find it
it has lain down at last
if we try we can find it
we managed to find our way onto its back
seize the reins of the greatest beast of burden
steer its cast iron framed and plated mass
so many lumbering tons in acceleration
straight into the earth’s gullet
a burning molten stomach
steer its cast iron framed and plated mass to its molton end
steer its cast iron framed and plated mass down below its shadow
the iron age of iron men
birth and death of iron pangolin

Answers the question of where Krallice would go after "Years Past Matter." Completely unclassifiable, the songs are simultaneously compact and complex. The playing and musicanship is breathtaking... "Wastes of Ocean" into "Over Spirit" being a prime example. It must also be said that Mick Barr is a badass motherfucker all over this album. "Agony in collective ignorance/Called upon by thyself/Thyself being a part of all life/In the sickness/Quarantined in pure paranoia" Pretty prophetic, right? bcb723

Car Bomb is basically the Mr. Bungle of extreme metal, if there was ever a comparison to be made. They always outpace you, turn your mind inside-out. Meta shows no signs of straying from that path, and is perhaps their best work. Highly satisfying. sky · ghost
This searing, four-track split from Bog Wizard (Michigan) and Dust Lord (Colorado) pairs stoner rock riffs with hard fantasy themes. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 10, 2021
