The title track from The Zenith Passage’s “Datalysium“ album.
While far too many progressive and technical death metal bands are happy to walk the same path and stick to a tried-and-true sound, on their second full-length The Zenith Passage forge new and exhilarating territory. From start to finish, Datalysium is driven by imagination, and played by artists who have full command of their instruments, creating something that stands out of any pack while maintaining what made them such a riveting proposition in the first place. When asked to describe the record, the band do so vividly: “Imagine if Necrophagist and Meshuggah were married, and Cynic and Extol got married, then years later they went to a swingers party to spice up their relationships, which then became a regular thing. From this, they all had a kid together, no one knows who the biological father is, but that’s cool because they’re co-parenting. That kid then grows up, idolizing David Lynch, Ridley Scott and film noir. He then goes to film school for a couple of years, but drops out because he’d rather play synth music, but ends up broke and homeless. Then Datalysium would be that kid.“

Datalysium
Music: McKinney Lyrics: Rydquist
Patiently, it awaits
Biding time, drifting away
The design taking shape
To condense its domain
An initiative instilling all things to bring on their own finality
To escape decay, transmute the bases and transcend
Bound disorderly, architecting the means to their end
Reorganizing into salient, definitive manifestation
Conceit is passed from the prime source
Material motivation
Salvation is promised comfort
Immaterial curation
All progression is a machination of amalgamation
Conglomerating the Anthropocene’s futile history
Human achievement - a system function reduced, nonexistent
To escape decay, transmute the bases and transcend
Bound disorderly, architecting the means to their end
Reorganizing into salient, definitive manifestation
Enveloped in a spectrum of diversion
The unity that they seek serves not the peace they envision
Conceit is passed from the prime source
Material motivation
Salvation is promised comfort
Immaterial curation
All progression is a machination of amalgamation
Free to worship at the altar of perceived choice
Be it man or beast or machine or what comes after
None are their own master
All will become absorbed, returned to the source
