lyrics
A captive soul returns
Limited materialistic boundaries.
Repeating the progress of leaving
as previous knowledge dissolved long ago.
Bewildered by totems in nature
we quest universe reflection, but
When mind potentialities exhaust
the answers remain untapped.
Homo sapiens terrorize one another
Conforming like drones
Homo sapiens, molesters of nature
Homo sapiens, parasite of the Earth
Concepts of existence astonish,
reality resides within myself.
Significance is questionable
We're less to the universe
then amoeba to the oceans
A mass of molecules and atoms
united to my consciousness
Ending in physical erosion
Repeating the cyclic process
Is this concept mirrored within myself?
Limited materialistic boundaries.
Repeating the progress of leaving
as previous knowledge dissolved long ago.
Bewildered by totems in nature
we quest universe reflection, but
When mind potentialities exhaust
the answers remain untapped.
Homo sapiens terrorize one another
Conforming like drones
Homo sapiens, molesters of nature
Homo sapiens, parasite of the Earth
Concepts of existence astonish,
reality resides within myself.
Significance is questionable
We're less to the universe
then amoeba to the oceans
A mass of molecules and atoms
united to my consciousness
Ending in physical erosion
Repeating the cyclic process
Is this concept mirrored within myself?

Hidden History of the Human Race
by Blood Incantationsupported by 10 fans who also own “Enhancing Enigma”
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too.

Impossible to overstate their influence. Few death metal acts have ever done so much with such little material.
