Arrogant Bastard MORE MELODEATH!
Yeah, this is another album emulating the golden age of melodic death metal. Original? No. Great bombastic fun creating a circle pit of sweaty bodies in my head? Absolutely!
Favorite track: Beyond Terminus.

sonicnerveinduction84 Excellent Melodic Death Metal band that reminds me heavily of classic In Flames ala Goliaths Disarm Their Davids. Female vocals sprinkled throughout are good as well. Yes there are some keyboards but they enhance the album. I look forward to hearing more. Favorite track: The Wanderer.

Owen W After a nice lowkey intro and a song that makes for some of the most emotionally evocative technical death metal I've heard, this EP delivers a four-song slice of melodic death metal reminiscent of Jester Race era In Flames. Those four songs continue the emotionally evocative bent of the second one by never sacrificing musicality for technicality, like so many releases in the genre will. All this makes for one of the most stirring melodeath releases I've heard in years. Favorite track: Fractured Soul.

ArpKor This is one of the best melodic death metal releases of the past few months, if not years! Absolutely love it!
Favorite track: The Uprising.
Saint Sloth

Saint Sloth I was snared by the FFVII name and I'm glad I fell for the trap. This album is amazing! The band managed to capture the classic Scandinavian melo-death sound and add a prevalent flavor of their own on top. Best album of 2018 so far! Favorite track: A Cosmic Calling.

Home! Is this the quiet place where you should be alone? Where the tortured and humbled find their own? I look to the stars for my souls ascendance Escaping far from this exsistance Upon the light we will shine like gold Upon the path, is hope written in stone Feed the yearning for a better day To journey beyond the terminus Follow me to Realms of existence, far from social complexity Places words can't describe, take my hand close you're eyes All shades of grey will fade As we break these chains of disdain Just Open your Arms embrace the light To a place where dispair is of no sound and mind Let go of apathy, take your heart from this forsaken place Follow me a new beginning awaits Upon the light we will shine like gold Upon the path, is hope written in stone Feed the yearning for a better day To journey beyond the terminus Never ending self-reform We march through the storm! Never ending self reform Infinite our Existence Never ending self-reform We will all be reborn Where Destiny awaits us Far Beyond terminus (Solo) Never ending self-reform We march onward through the storm! Never ending self reform Infinite our Existence Never ending self-reform We will all be reborn Where Destiny awaits us Far Beyond terminus

As darkness sweeps over me it threatens to extinct All hope of remains of the light, Animus memories bring attrition in lucid dreams That tear remnants of the mind Time, it circulates endlessly with a pressure that devours the soul Is this suffering I'm meant to endure In this world all alone Fractured yet whole as my mind, spirals out of control Condemened to live in this black hole Far from any held extol Day by day, the struggle continues At the breaking point of pain that ensues Every moment to a darker instant Forming the pessimist inside my exsistance I don't believe in fate I dont believe in much of anything anymore Now that I'm a weathered machine I'd give it all, I would give anything for peace Can't hide from fate I don't have time Closing my eye's Closer to my demise Can't hide from fate And I know I don't have time to wait When shadows cross my eyes I feel closer to my demise Time, it circulates endlessly with a pressure that devours the soul Is this suffering I'm meant to endure In this world all alone Fractured yet whole as my mind, spirals out of control Condemened to live in this black hole Far from any held extol Between the present and the past, Nothing feels pleasant in my hands, Must find the spark, Illuminate the dark Unleashing the solace to prevail my heart Haunted by choices I've made, feeling defeat, Enduring the weight of whats at stake Peace of mind, so far behind Just out of reach, So close from my reach Can't hide from fate I don't have time Closing my eye's Closer to my demise Can't hide from fate And I know I don't have time to wait When shadows cross my eyes I feel closer to my demise Time, it circulates endlessly with a pressure that devours the soul Is this suffering I'm meant to endure In this world all alone Fractured yet whole, as my mind, spirals out of control Condemened to live in this black hole Far from any held extol (Solo) Can't hide from fate I don't have time Closing my eye Closer to my demise Can't hide from fate And I know I don't have time to wait When shadows cross my eyes I feel closer to my demise

Temptress 03:51
Take me back, before the Plague Of you're harlot lies before my demise Should have seen the signs, With such luscious lips red as wine Such a beauty, yet so divine The Mask of a spell that trapped me in this hell Her tounge injects a poisoned ecstasy As she feasts from my fantacy It was only when it went to far I could see you for the temptress that you are Theres a perfect look in your eye's So enticing so inviting I can't deny Forging a love of deception's lust Of induced misguided trust Agony, now my reflection It was your False love that led this postion Ripping the heart out from this chest with conviction Screams are the outcome of this fated reclusion Now a hollow shell of a man, bloodied and broken Her accursed hands and nails glide against the skin Cutting deep with vanity The devils favorite sin (Solo) Now a hollow shell of a man, bloodied and broken Her accursed hands and nails glide against the skin Cutting deep with vanity It was only when it went to far I could see you for the temptress that you are The devils favorite sin

The Uprising 05:04
Its Just another day, another moment Hysteria grows and decends into torment Reality becomes a race against time As we're drifting further outside the lines, Desensitized to all the lies Born of politics creating sensless divide Distracted by our cultures meaningless ties That instills the illusion that Blinds the truth from our eyes Suffering has taken form Just look how the media rapes the mind With passions fuled by cynic design Through the veil of deception and fear Look upon the vibrant sun, that holds the key to ignite our fate Its vitality comes with clarity Let your heart at ease, let your mind wonder free, Look upon the vibrant sun, that holds the key to ignite our fate Its vitality comes with clarity Of the truth this is our world stand and fight (Solo) Look upon the vibrant sun, that holds the key to ignite our fate Its vitality comes With clarity Let your heart at ease, let your mind wonder free Look upon the vibrant sun, that holds the key to ignite our fate Its vitality comes with clarity Of the truth this is our world stand and fight Admist the chaos of this wilted world We are hope born into form of eternal light That bestow power to overcome the storm Together we must stand and rise as one Together Rise as One Look upon the vibrant sun, that holds the key to ignite our fate Its vitality comes with clarity Of the truth this is our world stand and fight

Lost between worlds Hatching the lotus unfurled Encompass the taste of tranquility Old truths that were thrown away Brought strength through the darkest of days Faded dreams that still shine with serenity Hold the visioned path to achieve ideal perfection Every motion has its place In progression amongst the cosmic wave That transcends reality, to open the minds clarity Visions revealed upon closed eyes Of the cosmic destiny we are meant to find Expand upon the intellct of perception freed of misguided needs We must make a change against the reign that has, enslaved our ways Liberate from force fed lies Seperate, the chaos from life These weights have been on far too long Exit from this dreaded fate Lift the bonds of subconscious vexation Forge your path in this realization Can you hear it? The boundless shout Of the Universe calling out Once more into the Fray As the moonlight Illuminates, the dark of night While at thy feet, is a soothing touch from the oceans tide Faded dreams that still shine with serenity Hold the visioned path to achieve ideal perfection Every motion has its place In progression amongst the cosmic wave That transcends reality, to open the minds clarity Visions revealed upon closed eyes Of the cosmic destiny we are meant to find Expand upon the intellct of perception freed of misguided needs We must make a change against the reign that has, enslaved our ways Liberate from force fed lies Seperate, the chaos from life I Emerge my hands in the water The gift of life has been revealed (Solo) Life is the infinite mystery The answers are beyond our Galaxy Visions revealed upon closed eyes Of the cosmic destiny we are meant to find Expand upon the intellct of perception freed of misguided needs We must make a change against the reign that has, enslaved our ways Liberate from force fed lies Seperate, the chaos from life (Solo) Every motion has its place. In progression of the cosmic wave That transcends reality, to open the minds clarity

about

The self titled EP from Aerith features Ken Bedene (Aborted) and Aaron Green and Frank Bedene

This project began so that two friends could create a style of metal that was influential too us. The project was named after the character Aerith/Aries from the video game Final Fantasy 7. Besides the fact we are nerds and huge fans of the game, we love what the character represented in the story of FF7 and thought it would be a great fit for the project.
After 2 years between writing, recording around Kens rigorous touring scheduale with Aborted, mixing and mastering, the EP is finally done and ready for all of you too hear. We hope you enjoy what we created. Spread the word and help us get these awesome tunes out there!!

For Fans of: In Flames, At The Gates, Nightrage, Dark Tranquillity,
Darkest Hour, Arch Enemy, Soilwork, Scar Symmetry, Fallujah, Gates of Ishtar
