lyrics
The Eyes of Extinction
Hiding
Hiding under the ground
Is the world still turning round?
Writing
I give names to the colors and shapes
Can I recall my lover’s face?
Sliding
Are there a thousand animals near
Or is the breathing that I hear
The space from one to ten,
From blue to white to grey?
And when I stare into the eyes of extinction
Where a memory’s asleep
Where it’s unsalvageably deep
Will I blend into the water of surrender
And be truly, truly gone
In annihilation’s splendor?
Hunt me
I’ll be running stray from the pack
Blood and moonlight glow on my back
Want me
Come on and give me reason to sing
Turn me into anything
Confront me
Because the choice is clear as ice
Between the emptiness, concise
And dead, or birth again
A chaos shaped like God
Come stare into the eyes of extinction with me
And together we might see
Another burning of the dawn
When it’s empty up in Heaven, there among the last debris
Is the seed still green and tender
Of a life that’s living on
Hiding
Hiding under the ground
Is the world still turning round?
Writing
I give names to the colors and shapes
Can I recall my lover’s face?
Sliding
Are there a thousand animals near
Or is the breathing that I hear
The space from one to ten,
From blue to white to grey?
And when I stare into the eyes of extinction
Where a memory’s asleep
Where it’s unsalvageably deep
Will I blend into the water of surrender
And be truly, truly gone
In annihilation’s splendor?
Hunt me
I’ll be running stray from the pack
Blood and moonlight glow on my back
Want me
Come on and give me reason to sing
Turn me into anything
Confront me
Because the choice is clear as ice
Between the emptiness, concise
And dead, or birth again
A chaos shaped like God
Come stare into the eyes of extinction with me
And together we might see
Another burning of the dawn
When it’s empty up in Heaven, there among the last debris
Is the seed still green and tender
Of a life that’s living on

Eyes On Backwards
by Dead When I Found Hersupported by 143 fans who also own “The Eyes of Extinction (Against Nature Mix)”
This album should be ranked very high in ranks of latest industrial albums, because it just crushes the competition. THIS is how it's done people. Menacing vocals, pounding drums and haunting electronics have no mercy on your ears and leave you with not one second of peace. Play this loud and do people around you a service.

Saw Kanga last night in Houston , instantly was entranced by her sound , sucked me into the Kangakult vortex , so glad I got to see her live , should have looked into her sooner as Gary Numan was so supportive of her on the Revolution tour , oh now it’s time to catch up and get further involved

All The Way Down
by Dead When I Found Hersupported by 131 fans who also own “The Eyes of Extinction (Against Nature Mix)”
That devastating and frightening atmosphere is mesmerizing. Probably the only DWIFH album I fell in love with. Expiring Time, The Unclean, Threadbare, Downpour, At Rest - these all are my favorites.

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 129 fans who also own “The Eyes of Extinction (Against Nature Mix)”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
