you consume all that you touch hedonistic destroyer of life betrayer, devourer of hope sentenced to walk these infinite planes creation and destruction repeating ad infinitum calculations defining space, but not time you belong writhing in this dissonant, static grave this data is your blood your spine, the algorithm commands are your only muscles your mind is all that’s left you are a coward and a liar and you will never change your addiction defines you I am the nights that you could never sleep I am your bloodshot eyes I am the scars on your writs and your throat I am your mortality this data is your blood your spine, the algorithm commands are your only muscles your mind is all that’s left I am the reason she never returned I am the voice in your head I am the ending to all of this pain I am your only way out this data is your blood your spine, the algorithm commands are your only muscles your mind is all that’s left for everything you have done you deserve your isolation your addiction defines you I am your addiction

“Cyberspace. [...] A graphic representation of data abstracted from banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the non-space of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding...” [Excerpt from Neuromancer by William Gibson]

outside of this construct, the world lives on a twisted mess of false perception the memories are bleeding into all that i’ve created initiate system-controlled pattern response preventing external contamination outside of this construct, the world lives on a twisted mess of false perception cerebral augmentation; emotion mapping algorithms initiate system-controlled pattern response preventing external contamination pattern response (x4) the rift will be where the conscious mind meets the construct’s programming thoughts will be subject to heavy moderation, preventing subsequent emotional response nothing is worth keeping - the entirety of the world outside is dead to me initiate system-controlled pattern response preventing external contamination pattern response (x4)

about

The long-awaited and painstakingly fabricated album-turned-EP marking the second release of symphonic melodeath act The Design Abstract. Corrupt features five contrasting tracks ranging from ambient noise to crushing melodic death metal, all with a very strong industrial undertone.

With lyrics expanding on the cyberpunk virtual-reality themes laid out by Emanate's The Event Horizon, and a brand new much more technical approach to writing, Corrupt is easily The Design Abstract's strongest release to date.

Be sure to check out the video for Technophage!
