lyrics

The taste of blood is on my lips
Unyielding
The crown above begins to slip
Into the depths
I force my hands upon your neck
In vengeful expulsion
Thrust onto the altar’s crest
To pray no more

Placed together, face to face
With our blades we end this

Bloodstained, on this day
Disdained, monarchs cursed away
Bloodstained, collapse of faith
Profanation, I embrace

The king and queen are left in their
Lesser form
In blasphemy we are relived from
The tyranny
As I thought we relined the
Equipoise
A knife is pierced into her chest
By my nemesis

Perverse is the snake
In one last offense
Brought to the edge
And dropped to your death

I’m left to bereave
In absence of light
At cost to triumph
I’m given the right

i checked out bands coming to my town, and xoth were on the list. at first i thought they were cheesy since i only liked metal to be deep, dark, and atmospheric . i did enjoy the technical complexity, so i gave them another chance. i equated shredding with jockishness (ugh), but i now see it as a creative choice. i just had to approach it on my own terms, and xoth was the perfect gateway for this. they really opened up a new world for me. quasiotter

Extremely inventive and multifaceted sci-fi prog death, just like iridescent ethereal world on the cover art. Best band's achievement up to date. And easily in 2023 AOTY list Dmitry Nevozhay

I love this particular niche of modern black metal. Crisp, biting production and clear, cutting riffs. Imperialist are among the best there is right now. Brett (Lascaille's Shroud / Soulmass)
