lyrics
Fervor for technology
Automation transcends beyond our capabilities
Seizing our place, developing apace
Research funded ceaselessly
A vision of institutional amelioration
Automate, remove the fleshly imperfections
Automate, allow equations to refine our competence
Automate, expedite structural perfection
Automate, erase deficiencies once and for all
Allow equations to refine us
Erase deficiencies once and for all
Eyes in the sky
Advancing from desolate lands into urban streets
Taking the role of the enforcers of law in the center of the sphere
Negating the risks, eliminating the threats perceived
Serein falls upon the body of a dissident
Lifeless, killed by circuits making an analysis of danger
Devoid of humanity
Destroyed but replaced, an artificial mind left unscathed
Financing into the science of machines
An endless quest to advance beyond our limitations
Sensory aphasia vanished, bygone
Communication perfected
Apperception creating a prototype of intellect
A ghost paramount
Ignorance shadows what is to be born
Its own ingenuity not yet unmasked
Information obtained without external aid
Improved by itself, untying the roots
Increasingly spinning away from our hands
An artificial neural network inciting itself
Questions evolve themselves from cybernetic synapses
Accelerating evolvement leaves but a step
The final process to become self-aware
A hidden product of man playing god
A reflection of our evolution shines in its final graze
A self-sufficiently evolving intelligence
Automation transcends beyond our capabilities
Seizing our place, developing apace
Research funded ceaselessly
A vision of institutional amelioration
Automate, remove the fleshly imperfections
Automate, allow equations to refine our competence
Automate, expedite structural perfection
Automate, erase deficiencies once and for all
Allow equations to refine us
Erase deficiencies once and for all
Eyes in the sky
Advancing from desolate lands into urban streets
Taking the role of the enforcers of law in the center of the sphere
Negating the risks, eliminating the threats perceived
Serein falls upon the body of a dissident
Lifeless, killed by circuits making an analysis of danger
Devoid of humanity
Destroyed but replaced, an artificial mind left unscathed
Financing into the science of machines
An endless quest to advance beyond our limitations
Sensory aphasia vanished, bygone
Communication perfected
Apperception creating a prototype of intellect
A ghost paramount
Ignorance shadows what is to be born
Its own ingenuity not yet unmasked
Information obtained without external aid
Improved by itself, untying the roots
Increasingly spinning away from our hands
An artificial neural network inciting itself
Questions evolve themselves from cybernetic synapses
Accelerating evolvement leaves but a step
The final process to become self-aware
A hidden product of man playing god
A reflection of our evolution shines in its final graze
A self-sufficiently evolving intelligence

Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be.
