....if you play the Horn Moon EP backwards it will unscramble eggs.

 Part 1

Many of these tracks are inspired by or based upon local legend/lore. But before you jump to any conclusions, more often than not, woven into one song may be two or three different concepts. Furthermore a single story is often times spread across two or three different songs.  They are the tales of the Underbelly.  Stories relegated to a place even camp-fire tales dare not venture.  The storyteller is charged with a greater task than to simply entertain his audience, he preserves and passes along pieces of history that would otherwise be lost in time.  One might argue somethings are better left unspoken, often times its these things which are most potent. Within us all there are certain pieces of ourselves & history, that while buried and forgotten, continue to shape and influence who we are.  This can be said of our community, our culture, our country and our species.

-Tim

"Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities — the political, the religious, the educational authorities — who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing — forming in our minds — their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself." - Dr. Timothy Leary

" Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't." - Mark Twain

:Lyrics - Roast the Goat aka Roast the Ghost

Harvest night
Rolling hills
Borderlands
Hollow wind
Hear the call
Martian Rage
Raise it all to ash

Gathering
Pagan Rite
Tend the fire
Feed the flame
Hold the wall
Man the gate
Keep the old ones out

Soon enough it'll be my time to walk between the rows
Loose the night upon the world set the night a-glow
November Fire calling you tempt you with its smoke
Burn to rise it comes alive as we Roast the Goat

Roast the Goat - Weird Beast



Come for me - Wicked Thing- Come for me you will
Bleed for me - Seraphim - Bleed for me you will
Burn inside - Violet Fire - Burn me through and through
Turn the night - Octarine - Searing me and You

Lyrics - Beastery

Beastery - Weird Beast

Carry yourself like one of the angels
Keep company with the fallen
Midnight ride the road is clear
Chase salvation with guns & beer
Open it wide search your soul
Knuckles wrapped around stainless bone
No end in site Howl at the Moon
Stones are cast, they're throwing runes

Walk with me to the cross roads
Summer nights old Gods rising
Ox-bone shovels tend sour ground

Beastery, Poisoned well
Born of fire, Empty Shell
Beastery, Ancient Rite
Sacrament, Sacrifice

Open it wide, search your soul
Knuckes wrapped around antler bone
Bury the needle down the demon highway
Windows down, asphalt rising
Steel creature breathes gasoline
At the wheel for an eternity
No regrets on the road behind
Endless night to burn & drive

Walk with me to the cross roads
Summer nights old Gods rising
Ox-bone shovels tend sour ground

Beastery, Poisoned well
Born of fire, Empty Shell
Beastery, Ancient Rite
Sacrament, Sacrifice

Carry yourself like one of the angels
Keep company with the fallen
Midnight ride the road is clear
Chase salvation with guns & beer
Open it wide search your soul
Knuckles wrapped around stainless bone
No end in site Howl at the Moon
Stones are cast, they're throwing runes

Beast will walk in fire
Kindred walk in fire
Beast will walk in fire
Kindred walk in fire

Lyrics - Quatermass & the Pit

Quatermass & the Pit - Weird Beast

Empty one
Hidden one
Hollow one
Dying sun will fade away

Digging - Burning

Behold the flesh of Shai Hulud cut from grace divine
Wonderous are the powers turning bile into life

Wither - Rotting

Consequences suffered for your actions left undone
Jump into the fire and become what you've begun

Dreaming one
Seeing one
Sleeping one
Rung by Run Below
Descending
Climbing down
Falling down
See what dwells below

Digging - Burning

Step across your black abyss, don't fear what dwells below
Look not down beyond the edge chasm black as coal

Thrashing - Quaking

All that dwells within this place is from the time before
Endless space & Endless night, & blackness that it Bor

Threshold Crossing
Twillight Calling
Violet Burning
Veils Falling

Come down now and become, become all you're born to be
Crawl down now and become, become all you're born to be
Carve out your sockets, forget all that you've seen
Now your spirits hollow, emptied by the things you've seen

Threshold Crossing
Twillight Calling
Violet Burning
Veils Falling

Dreaming one
Seeing one
Sleeping one
Rung by Run Below
Descending
Climbing down
Falling down
See what dwells below

Digging - Burning

Behold the flesh of Shai Hulud cut from grace divine
Wonderous are the powers turning bile into life

Wither - Rotting

Consequences suffered for your actions left undone
Jump into the fire and become what you've begun


Threshold Crossing
Twillight Calling
Violet Burning
Veils Falling

Lyrics - Exception You (Buff Increase)

Exception You (Buff Increase) - Weird Beast

Her arms bend backward wrapped in plastic freshly squeezed
She is the blue rose and the owls aren't what they seem

Rotting queen hides her horror right before their eyes
Like fire through a looking glass your lie reflects their lie

Hung drawn & quartered back to life
This den of thieves cut from your life
In sycamore they come to die
This set you free do you feel alive

You served a wicked queen on your hands & knees
Offer your lifeblood she'll be the one that bleeds

A tool that lives to slave & walk his egos line
Cut your losses take your brood ride off in the night

Hung drawn & quartered back to life
This den of thieves cut from your life
In sycamore they come to die
This set you free do you feel alive

Lyrics to Weird Beast

Weird Beast - Weird Beast

In the valley drenched in blackend mist
Gathered 'round to summon the myth
Forgotten ways lost in time
Kinseed fell damned & cursed
On a night when the moon is horned
By blood & clay the beast is born
Night & day it knows no bounds
The meek shudder as the bodies are found

Pray that death will find you quick, sufferings is more than any man
should be asked to...
Hide your eyes ignore the signs, now you'll reap what you've called down
upon yourselves

Flesh it comes
Crimson feast
Eternal soul
Meat for the Beast
Those who dare
To walk alone
Beware of the cast
of a Coal Black Halo

Your beating heart
lasting feast
Wandering soul
is Meat for the Beast
Brave who dare
To walk alone
Beware of the cast
of a Coal Black Halo



Flesh it comes
Crimson feast
Eternal soul
Meat for the Beast
Those who dare
To walk alone
Beware of the cast
of a Coal Black Halo

Your beating heart
lasting feast
Wandering soul
is Meat for the Beast
Brave who dare
To walk alone
Beware of the cast
of a Coal Black Halo

In the valley drenched in blackend mist
Gathered 'round to summon the myth
Forgotten ways lost in time
Kinseed fell damned & cursed
On a night when the moon is horned
By blood & clay the beast is born
Night & day it knows no bounds
The meek shudder as the bodies are found

Getting ready to post lyrics and possibly a very brief explanation as to their meaning/significance.
