lyrics

Vaticinium ex eventu!

The scholium of Siculus tells of an idol of arsenic’s diluted gift
To those cast in flesh and soil and the dust of starlight
He is seated with palms offered to the mottled roil above
Where they, short of life, are turned short of breath
Strangle the breath amidst the wails of seven

Only ashes remain to float to the brazier
Sardonic laughter, she grins in succulent suffocation

Contracted limbs and mouth agape, slip away
Come not near divine death, lest he make you like a lamb betwixt his jaws
And you become carried away as the wind in the breach of his throat

Come forth Mot, and submit at Hadad’s feast
For his hunger is like that of wolves in the wilderness
Seek out the ravine where blind men lie headless, prostrated and castrated

Siket Syidna Musa
Shalt thou follow the steps of penitence

Drown in a final dawn, so there plunge from their Jabal
And shatter with your ruin those fevered scratchings on stone

about

Construct of Lethe Woodbridge, Virginia

Construct of Lethe began in 2016 as an avenue for guitarist Tony Petrocelly to release music he had written for previous bands that split up.

The band has constantly sought to evolve and expand their sound, and A Kindness Dealt in Venom is a testament to that. It introduces synth and electronic elements, symphonic instruments, and greatly expands on the noise/found sounds introduced in Exiler.
