lyrics

Greed And Gluttony

A blind devotion for an unknown cause
Our mortal sins and fatal flaws
An all-consuming plague
Lusting after wealth

The fear is rising in the hearts
The wound is stretching in our palms
Greed is a jester in disguise
Impulsively leading us to our demise

An all-consuming plague
Lusting after wealth
Confuses want with need
The all seeing eye of greed

Are we alive
Living guilt free
Are we too scared
To disagree

Selfishly latching onto whatever I want.
Any fantasy I have, I try to make it real
Far and too often, I expect much more
Like a pitch black cloak, Greed envelopes me.

Are we alive
Living guilt free
Can we survive
With all this need

Even the angels are made for so much more.
We claim that we care for the ones in need
If we had it all we would still want more
Humanity is fragile and easy to deceive

Are we all blind
Do we not see
Are we too scared
To disagree
Are we alive
Living guilt free
Can we survive
With all this need

Distant Pixels

supported by 6 fans who also own “Greed And Gluttony”

On ne pourra certainement pas reprocher à Subnuba de vouloir aller trop vite : si le groupe annonçait la sortie prochaine d'un album avec le single Ascending Light, Distant Pixel ne sortira que trois ans plus tard. Et à l'écoute de cette pépite, je dirai qu'on ne pourra pas reprocher grand-chose à Subnuba tout court. Le trio a travaillé d'arrache-pied et ça s'entend : le death metal technique est exceptionnel, aussi bourrin que fantastique avec ses arpèges électroniques de science-fiction ! Jordan Vauvert

Will admit found the dissonance initially off putting, but by the end of the first song caught the groove and loved every second! It's almost like a lost Pestilence album. Full on reccommend! warchrist30
