Hair smells of adrenaline and fear.
Sun bleached skulls scrape the pavement like broken glass.
I grasp the boney hands, with dirty fingernails.
Feeling each knuckles indentation on my skin.
There’s only one thing that I dread, not to be worthy of my suffering.
Everyone has a secret that could break your heart.
It’s scary what a smile can hide.
Skulls missing jaws,
Open mouths, look like they’ve been screaming secrets.
You never smile like that, to anyone else than me.
You throw blankets over sore limbs and weep into buckets just to be able to tell others about your despair.
They don’t understand.
Skulls missing jaws,
Open mouths, look like they’ve been screaming secrets, they don’t understand.
You never smile like that, to anyone else than me.
I can’t wait to feel something new,
These songs I write, they’re all about you.
Everyone has a secret that could break your heart.
It’s scary what a smile can hide.

Before Ashen, I thought they were overrated. Deathcore bands seem to have a capacity to evolve quickly. I’ve seen quite a few bands in this genre grow exponentially from one album to the next, and Ashen is a particularly strong example. Metallurgical Fire
This album immediately slaps you in the face with some of the chunkiest bass lines you will ever encounter, and then sucks you in with a stupendous ride through a surprisingly wide array of emotions. Fractal Sliver
Iranian metal band Confess channel their struggles with political oppression and exile into cathartic, groovy thrash. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 2, 2022

I am more a melodeath guy than deathcore, but I enjoy all the symphonic elements or rythym changes. This album is a BLAST omg my neck hurt, so much headbang🤘🤘 olive855
