'Time moves onward to an end that none of us will ever see.' - Hallucinogenic visuals representing 'nature retaking abandoned human stuff', and aiming to bend the reality of what remains of your time. This is the title track of Ixian's punishing, addictive, cathartic black metal album with an experimental, bleak, crunchy, industrial wrapping. One that pushes the boundaries of the style without a doubt, comparative to Dragged Into Sunlight, The Axis Of Perdition, Thantifaxath, Portal, Blut Aus Nord, Oranssi Pazuzu, Godflesh, Jute Gyte and that terrifying and beautiful Icelandic black metal atmosphere.
The album was released on September 1st this year, and I knew that I had to make a video to accompany it; it took a little time to figure out which track and how, but the lyrics to this one firmly planted the requirement to have it centred around a high paced, head-melting journey around abandoned tombs and graveyards being eaten by time and trees.

LYRICS
All architecture now mausolea
Testaments to distant deeds
Nothing of note is walled within
As even the ghosts have wandered on
Overgrowth to reclaim the concrete lands
Vines in time will coat the gray
Stretching out to hold the bricks and rebar tight
Always slipping in our war
Against the hubris in our past
Creeping closer to the hour
Time's run out. It always would.
