Egress, by Annexia

Egress

by Annexia

supported by

BlueTempleVisions Not the usual doom/sludge you might be expecting. Annexia deal in a really left-field take on the genre, mixing in a good deal of ambience and strange beauty amid the darkness. This is one of those hidden gem records for sure. Favorite track: No Sympathy For The Wretched.

2.	No Sympathy For The Wretched 12:06	lyrics	buy track
I don't see where to go Everyone so distant, How can we relate? What is there to seek? Slave to lurid nature, Answers to my questions, Many will sneer at the words. Alluring patterns Comfort in them all. Assembled like cogs, Each forged in a lifetime. Stutters and ticks, No escaping the incessant whirring. Feeble mind, too delicate to accept life's true nature, Little concern for the world outside Fixated on horrors within.
3.	Through Pain We May Learn 06:41	lyrics	buy track
Unsatisfied. Unenthused. Struggling to persevere. I just don't see how to conquer an all encompassing negativity. Humbled by pain within Weaker than many who persist A flickering remembrance Of times free from the pain. Months hazed by paranoia. Cannot sleep, without hope. Body of horrors, fear in me Unable to contain all I perceive. Drained by the spasms, exhausting strains, Life spent engulfed by weakness. Go on and wallow. Weakling child, A burden on the species. Sickly and a mental wreck.
4.	In Time, This Tide Too Will Break 09:20	lyrics	buy track
When you leave, please take this guilt from me I fear being too weak to endure Blind to life beyond Without a confidant there's only ruins Here comes a repeat of youth Signalled with each fracture in the world crafted around me - A lonely Isle, isolated. Burden of limitation forgotten, Heading towards the ocean. A deluge washing over, each wave thrashing Once at the crest the decline will follow. Maybe a wave will bring me gently back to shore.

Spectacular sludge with powerful vocals from the hardcore spectrum. Balances the heavy and the emotional just the way I like it. Never would have guessed this was from the UK. Great job.

I guess this is their most important release because it was the first and made them known to the first people out there. I sadly missed this for far too long. The more I'm glad to finally have found them now. Music with a rare kind of heavy bleakness and rich with tasty riffs and grooves. And the way the songs progress is always interesting. Conjurer keep pumping new life blood into metal up until now (early September 2022). Great band! mourner

I really like this band, they got such a sludgetastic coolness about them. TORPOR swagger in between sludge, metal, doom and post metal with ease as if they've been writing this fantastic noise forever. Found another fave band of mine. Darknight
