Spring has sprung.
In yellow plumes, it hangs like a chromatic noose.
Blonde air, blue skies.
This is an insemination.
A heatwave blisters an early birth.
The mother, Grand Sultan.
A summer, renewed amidst seasons askew.
Shedding pedals like snake skin.
Strange fruit will grow, fall, and feed.
Driving us mad as it rots in the blazing gaze,
piercing mothers shade.
Grand Sultan twists in the attention.
Ever the beauty, ever the burden.
Ever the conversation piece.
The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 26, 2024
