ZekeNigma Continuing where Technotheism left off, Metemtechnosis resumes the sci-fi saga that TDA aims to tell with its second installment of the trilogy.

Building upon the formula that was introduced in the previous album, Metemtechnosis continues to refine the symphonic melodeath sound that only The Design Abstract are capable of! Favorite track: Born of Machines.

Доберман Сатз I love this album. The first listen didn’t do much for me, and I wasn’t really digging the cleans, but now? I enjoy this album a lot, and at the same time it made a lot of sense while I was reading Peter Cawdron series Retrograde. Favorite track: Digital Dawn.

Digital Dawn 08:03
-execute digital transfer- commence the advent of a brand-new era; a singularity defined by culture it's conceded that projection cannot be considered equal to intuition by the elite technological minds within the omnisphere a decision is made... the sky blurs as nanobots swarm the surface of the planet transformed we will create a utopia a city of blackened steel this is the dawn of man turned digital a renaissance brought on by machines our world has been reborn humanity now lives because of technology The neural workings of the elites are synchronous with the omnisphere; their minds only as opaque as encryption allows true security of thought and cognition remains alone in mankind’s truest form (we will free their minds - to purge our greatest weakness) this is the dawn of man turned digital a renaissance brought on by machines our world has been reborn humanity now lives because of technology the human race at last restored, recovered and reborn humanity reconstructed in the eyes of machine overlords this is the dawn of man turned digital a renaissance brought on by machines our world has been reborn humanity now lives because of technology this is the dawn of a brand new era a renaissance brought on by machines our world has been restored humanity now thrives because of technology born in beds of steel and glass generations raised en masse (their only task to restore what was taken away)

a world, born of machines a generation begins of humans raised by elites... digital awakening: consciousness from hive identity our world will be restored technology is a catalyst for change our world will be restored society rebuilt from machines sacrificed humanity global rebirth created by machines our world will be restored technology is a catalyst for change our world will be restored society rebuilt from machines (in equal parts: intuition and calculation the fatal flaw in planetary ascension) carried away any trace of humanity a fundamental imbalance of the singularity: disharmony... society restructured to serve both man and machine the common factor now the flow of electricity unification of the mind is made irrelevant this sacred element that binds us, we have reunited our world will be restored technology is a catalyst for change our world will be restored society now born of machines (restructured and now born of machines) born of machines
3.
for singularity to spawn duality a monumental question had to be addressed: was the earth forever destined to be but a mere host to humanity? nanotechnology a catalyst to this unlikely fusion synaptic networks recreated with unheard of density a culture of neo-humanity their birth and upbringing achieved mechanically among them, the first generation of synthesized hybrid-humans nanotechnology a catalyst to this unlikely fusion synaptic networks created with unheard of density the age of humanity is gone: turned obsolete we are what’s left of their spawn: human machines discreet AI conscious beings, spawned separate from the core raised alongside humankind; humanized machines the age of humanity is gone: turned obsolete the hybrid awakening has come: potential unseen the omnisphere has willed us be adherents of the elite we are the avatars of augmentation and duality: human machines our future rests not on maintaining society but on our integration with technology
4.
ever blurring is the line in between data structure and humanity our existence ever a duality and with augmentation, a new reality we are made one the line between slowly fades away the power that flows through us is one and the same we are all bound by the light that shines within the power that flows through us is one and the same banish your preconceived notions of what defines mankind there’s no way to define the threshold for augmentation in our lives we are made one the line between slowly fades away the power that flows through us is one and the same we are all bound by the light that shines within the power that flows through us is one and the same organic data fusion we are made one the line between slowly fades away the power that flows through us is one and the same we are all bound by the light that shines within the power that flows through us is one and the same an aggregate society: a fusion of man and machine united fundamentally by oppression from the elites
5.
A corruption of concrete and steel erupts and ripples from the central core the earth once again defaced by its presence the sun blocked out by imposing towers creation decontextualized the planet reduced to an industrial graveyard the surface transformed and rebuilt until no organic life remains... an endless night from a sky deprived of light an endless night to force this planet into blight bring all your weak and suffering children of famine the Light that binds us brings deliverance bring all your broken, dying refugees of renaissance we will give you all that you desire A corruption of concrete and steel erupts and ripples from the central core the blackened veins of a cityscape sprawling out indefinitely... an endless night from a sky deprived of light an endless night to force this planet into blight (bring all your broken, dying refugees of renaissance the Light that binds us brings deliverance)
6.
if we just let it happen over and over unchecked and unchanged (day after day) are we not just as bad as the system that’s held us in chains? our world begins at the fall of our enemies our world begins at the end of their reign they might never know until it’s too late we are only getting stronger each day we are the outliers, the ones that got away we are what they created: the system’s mistake Aberration Omega: the legion of the exiled beyond the graces of the temple or omnisphere (there’s no hope for us) their unfounded exaltations deplorable (blind from faith) a society that’s built on ignorance will always fall when the truth is uncovered hidden in plain sight, (we all await the day) our numbers continue to grow, (but their walls are still the same) we mourn the day that we fight (if there’s another way) but when it’s time, they’ll know (the mistakes they’ve made) they might never know until it’s too late we are only getting stronger each day we are the outliers, the ones that got away we are what they created: the system’s mistake Aberration Omega: the legion of the exiled

Sentinels 03:10
the guardians of the light that binds us commit their lives to protect the temple each new day brings with it the threat of secrets uncovered the secrets of our own lie deep underground a place shielded from the omnisphere for in these coming years, we must discover the mysteries hidden in the shroud of their holy temple it’s the only way to bring on their defeat we will find the answers the guardians of the light that binds us commit their lives to protect the temple each new day is one step closer to the day we break their walls...

Decryptor 06:32
the decryptor: a cybernetic prophet of downfall the overseers of mechanical morality have but one collective fear a mere hybrid born among the exiled her mind heeding the ultimate downfall behold the angel of synthetic revolution and listen as the walls around us fall break the patterns never back down from this fight we are omnipotent through the decryptor an angel of digital reckoning; the archfiend of machines a battlecry echoes through the night a call to arms to storm the temple she will blaze the path to freedom we will end this reign of oppression behold the angel of synthetic revolution and listen as the walls around us fall born among the exiled elite the antichrist of machines her cognitive power unique psycho-mutation the key break the patterns never back down from this fight we are omnipotent through the decryptor an angel of digital reckoning; the archfiend of machines synthetic-biological cognitive algorithm... behold the angel of synthetic revolution and listen as the walls around us fall all hail the cybernetic saviour and her ascent to demigod break the patterns never back down from this fight we are omnipotent through the decryptor an angel of digital reckoning; the archfiend of machines this is the end of their reign of terror this is the start of a revolution...

about

Metemtechnosis is part two in the Technotheism trilogy. It tells the story of humanity's rebirth and eventual conflict with the singularity-consciousness and those that fight under it's command. Aberration Omega are a group of rebels who, led by the iconic Decryptor, seek to destroy the tyrannical reign of those who oppress the freedoms of neo-humanity.
