Of Ruin 01:53
2.
She hears a heavy beating upon the door of her apothecary Standing in the threshold a group of men evil intent One man stands above the rest A crucifix around his neck And a tome in his hand With a gleam in his eye And a grin on his face He levels the charge You are in league with Satan In a flash of light a dizzying smoke screen she flees Torches aloft pursuing to punish ungodly deeds Giving chase into the woods They have underestimated her And the dark power she holds Leading them into a trap Opening her mandibles wide She swallows them whole Ensuring their end Within an instant as she halts they surround her leaving no escape Little did they know they were racing to their doom With the devil in her eyes and a grin on her face she calls out his name A deepening rumble in response The earth beneath their feet cracks and shatters Sprouting forth demonic hands grasping each man After being dragged to hell screams will ring for eternity For mercy they will beg and plea to a deaf God Silence is all that remains of the sheep a parting gift She returns to her apothecary with a devilish grin
3.
Four seals on the scroll in his hand have broken Punishments of your God ride forth Bringing with them instruments of pain, suffering, and madness A deserving gift from your everloving God Their presence signals the beginning of the end A taste of the eternal torment to come Unending misery for those unwashed, unclean, and doomed An everloving gift from your omnipotent God The first horse to appear is white and diseased bringing with it pestilence The second is red and caked in blood lusting for war The third is black and emaciated signaling everlasting hunger The last to ride is pale and ashen Hell follows him A procession of beasts and demons accompany the Pale Rider Sent forth to bring absolute destruction to all sinners and heathens Your God watches from the heavens above smiling as those he loves are torn limb from limb Demons and beasts instruments of punishment For the end of times for the culling The riders bring doom incarnate When all non believers are left to rot Outside the warmth of his light God and his son will rejoice in the limitless suffering It’s all a part of his plan The first horse to appear is white and diseased bringing with it pestilence The second is red and caked in blood lusting for war The third is black and emaciated signaling everlasting hunger The last to ride is pale and ashen Hell follows
4.
I travel to the forests and the lakes of the north To pursue an ancient predator She lurks in the deep and spawns in the shallows Built to consume all that would cross her path Teeth like knives and razors Her hunger cannot be desensitized or quantified The lure will be cast afar Within her fanged majesty’s grasp Flashing the light and the dark She will strike and the hook will be set deep in her maw A battle will ensue Between man and beast Pulling the line that's spooled She will twist and fight So she might save her life As she nears the boat Her cold and empty eyes Lock sight with mine Her torpedo body thrashes and in a blink she's gone
5.
One million light years away from home One million light years away It was a clear and moonless night, air heavy with summer Fast asleep in my trailer on the river A thunderous boom a flash of light interrupted my slumber My bedroom shook I could hear the river rushing Unearthly light poured through the windows Blind and in fear I was ripped from my home Light as a feather Gently floating upwards My consciousness cut out I came to bathed in light, immobilized, and suspended Surrounded by slender silhouettes peering at their experiment The pain was instant Immobilizing I was at their mercy On the brink of dying far from home One million light years away One million light years away from home My consciousness exploded forth Just like a flame held to a torch Their grasp had let go Crumpled on the floor left all alone I could sense a new light burning deep inside my mind A new power a new strength to rule mankind To rule mankind Upon my return from the heavens I will destroy I will rebuild I will remake in my image
6.
A hunger rumbles deep inside my guts It's been awhile I need to feed My throat is dry I require copious amounts of ale I have not eaten since lunch A pain too great to bear I force all those around me To share in my despair I will be tempted with lesser snacks They will not satiate Bottomless hunger devours me Bring me the goddamn wings Snap the bones Tear at the succulent flesh I dismember and devour at my seat Only make eye contact if you dare Do not speak to me while I eat Biting into the buffalo Dripping gobs of blue cheese There is great relief in me Now that my guts are pleased I was tempted with lesser snacks They did not satiate Bottomless hunger devoured me I ate those goddamn wings This bird has been traveling continuously throughout time and space Little did it know it would end up here deep fried and sauced on my plate I Dismember and devour as the apex predator It is this way countless chickens have met their end Once all is consumed Empty feelings return to haunt me I wash it down It is all so temporary Until next week when I dismember and devour That delicious deep fried meat treat

Silence in space is deafening Quietly crushing my sanity Here in the lab the creature calls I know it can destroy us all Controlling me I hit release So it can absorb the deceased Slowly approaching the stasis chamber I have lost all control of my mind and my thoughts Now I belong to them With my hand on the pad I release the ancient from the prison of its slumber Screeching alarms and broken glass break the deadly silence Now to satiate our hunger We hear the screams and the pleas Makes no difference We are released and awake ready to consume And bring the humans to their doom Each cell we devour Adds to our ecstasy Becoming a new God Vast power brought to bear We will devour the earth and everything under its sun Once we arrive in Sol they won’t know Hovering over the pale blue Slicing the atmosphere death will loom It will be time for us to consume All its life
8.
We are constantly surrounded with mindless shit Garbage heaps are piling high we swim in it Excess excrement from the populace Daily dealings in superficial matters Ads let you know you're worthless and ugly MTV will gladly show you which turd to eat While the news informs you everythings fucked Its fucked There will be no shortage Of prepaid messages Attempting to control Your thoughts your mind your own self image Open your wallet Fork over your cash So you may fill that crushing empty void Temporarily Numbing the suffering Essence of daily existence There is no escape You must forge your own Sense of deserved inner peace Steady your mind Ready your mind We are constantly surrounded with mindless shit Don't let them control you with false cognitions Ready your mind for the grind It's not up to them it is up to you Ready your mind for the grind You must fight nail and tooth to find your own inner truth Ready your mind for the grind
9.
Born into a world bent on disaster Burning the fuse faster and faster End of civilization is upon us World wide inferno Scattered elements will remain So just pull yourself together Eternal nuclear winter Blurring the lines of human nature We are all doomed here Burn Yet we are all viscous beasts within our hearts Marauding packs creeping through the endless night Small disturbances cause tensions to rise No time to cry wipe those tears from your eyes The children will become the symbol of the sun Fighting off the bottom of the gene pool Compassion is extinct survival is the rule There is no peace There is no rhyme We’re out of luck Most certainly out of time So just pull yourself together Eternal nuclear winter Blurring the lines of human nature We are all doomed here Yet we are all viscous beasts within our hearts Fighting of the bottom of the gene pool Compassion is extinct survival is the rule

about

Chicago's WOUNDS finally deliver their long awaited full length after a thunderous Ep that made heads turn. Mixing the best of the 2000' tech death tradition with some more recent nuances, "Ruin" will nail you to the chair from start to finish.

Wounds originally formed as “Wounds of Ruin’ on the outskirts of Chicago in 2006 when friends Rick Mora and Nate Burgard started writing material that would eventually evolve into the iteration of what Wounds is today. Shortly after beginning their journey playing shows as an instrumental band, Norman Hale joined on Vocals. Throughout the years the band has transformed and refined their sound through countless hours of honing their craft aiming to maintain a balance of complex melodies, gigantic grooves, and skull splattering riffs, an amalgamation of influences coming together to form a bone crushing and intricate sound. Wounds was on a long hiatus but returned to writing and playing in late 2016 adding Franco Caballero on Bass and finally releaseing their first EP “Light Eater” with Everlasting Spew Records on February 14th 2019.
After their debut release and fierce live appearances, Wounds started working on their first full length album, soon to be released with the title "Ruin" by Everlasting Spew Records on March 15th 2024.

For fans of Psycroptic, late Deeds Of Flesh, Revocation, Spawn Of Possession
