Recent calculations show the world is in the midst of a sixth mass extinction that's being caused by our species - and is likely to lead to humanity's demise if unchecked. (Thus far, five great mass extinctions came to pass over the past 500 million years, each of which is thought to have annihilated from 50 to 95 percent of all species on the planet.)
lyrics
…and so this is how it’s all going to end
As today’s forecasts indicate:
Habitat degradation, overexploitation –
Species disappear at an explosive rate
With no-one left to walk the straight path in Oneness
And hold on steadfast to the original purity
Mankind has given the Earth away
In only a matter of centuries
So what’s done is done
Now our time is done
Rain patterns have been changed,
The heat glows like the sun…
Human-induced wave of extinction,
The sixth and final one
It’s too late to reverse
No way to undo this curse
Got a thousand ways to obliterate –
Haven’t got what it takes to recreate

Love this sludgy, doomy, blackened dm concoction. Warcrab went in a more energetic and arguably more focused direction after this, but I think this album will always be my favourite. Recommended!

It’s a shame that Preludium broke up, as both of their albums were absolute bangers. While I narrowly prefer the more varied, spiritually-themed Redemption, the martial style of this unrelenting debut is so in-your-face and satisfying, I can find no fault. One of those albums I’ll have on repeat for a long time. Highly recommended! MJ
