REVERENCE TO PAROXYSM "Lux Morte" DIGIPACK CD
“This is the tragedy: Consciousness has forced us into the paradoxical position of striving to be unself-conscious of what we are—hunks of spoiling flesh on disintegrating bones.”
― Thomas Ligotti
The. Album. Of. 2023.
It has been years since Death Metal has made me feel genuinely uncomfortable, not through spectacle, but through the kind of despair that forces you to confront the emptiness beneath every conviction. REVERENCE TO PAROXYSM drags that buried tension into the open, peeling back the genre until all that remains is the bleak enormity of being alive with no promise beyond decay.
"Lux Morte" strikes like a slow realization you’ve spent your whole life avoiding: each note a reminder that consciousness is a fragile accident, and that every meaning we cling to is a trembling scaffolding above a bottomless absence. The music doesn’t guide you but it corners you, leaving you alone with the quiet terror that there is no witness, no narrative arc, no redemption waiting on the other side of death.
Heavier than grief, darker than the thoughts that wake you in the middle of the night, this album reverberates like the sound of your own existence buckling under its contradictions. What remains is not catharsis, but a cold clarity: the recognition that oblivion is not an event, but an inescapable horizon, and that everything we are is already slipping toward it.
