yourmetalfriend Combining guttural growls and clean singing has always been special to me, especially when it's done right. Icosian knock it out of the park.

syn Progressive metalcore with solid guitar solos and not an overabundance of generic breakdowns. Everything sounds as if it's meant to be there and nothing is forced into a song. Production quality is less than stellar and leaves room for improvement. I'd love to hear this band after proper studio time.
8/10 Favorite track: When I Stopped Calling It Home.

Zodiac 01:37
I’m drowning myself behind empty fucking smiles and false alibis Crush my throat, break my spine there is no escape from what is yours It's almost time I am not a prophet but look me in the eyes And don’t think for a second I won't end your life We don’t need our revenge We’re keeping you our fucking secret

Oppression 05:03
We’re all divorced from reality mental deficiencies have made us blind We’ve come too far to let the wheels of progress come grinding down to a halt Will you stand? or be trampled under the crushing weight of their demands Path to perdition, did we lose ourselves along the way? so let us bathe in the blood of deceit and let us drink from the spring of hate We cannot lose hope and when we call out our fallen brothers names We will be the hope for those who have lost the will to carry on Blood will fill the streets of innocent and guilty alike we will drown their regime Hope is never lost Don't you ever lose sight We cannot lose hope and when we call out our fallen brothers names We will be the hope for those who have lost the will to carry on We cannot lose hope We will not lose hope

Vices 05:05
They remain hiding in the shadows that’s where they’ve always shone the brightest Fallen from grace, angels with blackened wings plant sinister intention in the weak of heart ideas multiply and infect those minds perverse desires detached from society (Detached from society) Devoid of humanity the world it burns beneath their feet pathetic crippled souls, who let darkness envelop their unfathomably empty hearts Are we meant to know, have we lost our way have we been failed by those prophets who swore they’d lead the way Can we truly defeat those committed to hate their words paint portraits of decay Destroyed without a trace annihilate, defeat of the human race conscious without conscience we fall We will fall as one Devoid of humanity the world it burns beneath their feet pathetic crippled souls, who let darkness envelop their unfathomably empty hearts

The humans have grown too proud they will be the death of themselves only another solar system will save them now It's time to leave your home abandon all you’ve known this will be our last goodbye We have fought to survive for so long we forgot what it means to belong and this reign’s lasted far to long We are but satellites lost betwixt space and time we are but satellites drifting with no end in sight We’ve only scratched the surface of what progress can find but have we manufactured our own demise We can start again somewhere new is my child to blame for all I've done We have fought to survive for so long we forgot what it means to belong and this reign’s lasted far to long Our time has come, our time has come Waiting to turn the tide waiting to turn back time awaken collective mind waiting with open arms
