Flying through celestial seas
lonely traveler gliding free
exiled from ancient gods
in search of a home
traveler of both time and space
blue planet my resting place
feeling like I never felt
a long time ago
Purple fog veils the stars in motion
for the triangle gods
burning low over plastic rivers
and cyclopean alligators
feral children run from the hunters
making the rounds for 100,000 years
He's alone under the canopy
they point their fingers
set form to piercing dagger
to rend the heart of the dark creator
diamond mirrors, sliced reflection
carving fractals into pale blue skin
release the sound
white lights, exploding sun
numbers, drip down the walls
crash
Fall of the dagger
its coming for you
fall of the dagger
prophecy is true
fall of the dagger
its coming for you
fall of the dagger
for the chosen few
He fell from the sky that night
neon
wrote his name in a burning fire
across the plains
they rose like shadows then
with lying eyes
beheld the blue-skinned man
from the sky
He pointed to the bear
made of stars
held out an open hand
they understood
they gave him communion
and took him in
offered him burning plants
and it was good
Visions of gods and men
dancing hand in hand
cold sweat, clenched teeth
thunderbirds overhead
Time on my hands
blood on the table
look at yourself
I'm more than able
to offer this gift
of lightning and coils
from the expanse
to men of the buffalo
pick in my hand
dagger's on overdrive
release the sound
of evil asleep in heaven

Found these guys on the Bandcamp feature talking about metal bands and one of my favorite sci-fi epics, Dune. This band sounds awesome! They remind me of Akimbo, with their super tight rhythm section and sick guitar riffage!
Update: Ha! I didn't realized this band had a member of Akimbo in it! Even better! Junior Tidal
Produced by Converge's Kurt Ballou, the metal band's fourth LP channels tragic, transcendental themes into fierce progressive sludge metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 28, 2024
Bunsenburner works from a base of stoner metal but expands far past it, incorporating long, searching, searing jams. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 12, 2023
