EMPTY TOMB (King Lizzard) Slugs move Ideas are dissipated The walls rise Nobody notices Nobody… Counting miseries The Seven Angels fell The seven Seas Formed Misery has been given to us Go away.. Go Away Eternity has been offered Remains in this eternal vacuum There will always be a space to filled Eternal Doubt Eternal Doubt I don’t need or want it Eternity for what? There will always be a space to filled Eternal Doubt Eternal Doubt Seat, blood and omens Fear, doubt and desire For an empty sun and a full world Restless Ill will Contempt and arrogance Run away…

Like a Spear 06:39

LIKE A SPEAR (King Lizzard) Like a spear Like a spear Like a spear Uncertainty hits me I go down the stairs Like lost thoughts I gather courage to go towards Like a Spear My senses do not merge Doped by ideas Dark smoke cover the azure sky Like Spear Your blue sky of ideas It’s dark as the Onix The eyes are blindfolded The eyes are blindfolded Yeah. Like one last (run) Without limits nor control Emotions are lost Mingle in a fiery mind MInd No glory, legacy or endownment Stumbling over thoughtless attitudes No glory, legacy or endownment Stumbling over thoughtless attitudes Like a spear Your blue sky of ideas It’s dark as the Onix The eyes are blindfolded The eyes are blindfolded Paying a high price For not having worried In keeping pristine skies Skies skies

PALACE OF MEMORIES (King Lizzard) Some moments are so important in our life, That they are kept forever in our mind Some moments are so important in our life, That they are kept forever in our mind For many people that moment was the fall of the wall For other fall of the towers For many people that moment was the fall of the wall For other fall of the towers Your memories are not as accurate as you think they are Your memories are not as accurate as you think they are Memories are import to preserve the past and only Memories are import to preserve the past and only It fuels a failed, unpleasant, and frustrated future It fuels a failed, unpleasant, and frustrated future For many people that moment was the fall of the wall For other fall of the towers For many people that moment was the fall of the wall For other fall of the towers Your memories are not as accurate as you think they are Your memories are not as accurate as you think they are Memories are import to preserve the past and only Memories are import to preserve the past and only It fuels a failed, unpleasant, and frustrated future It fuels a failed, unpleasant, and frustrated future Without any sense or direction (Direction) We Have Nowhere to go (To go) And if that place exist (Exist) We Will not know to get there There There There

ADMIT YOUR OWN FAILURE (Rogerio Mendes) No origin No destination A Floating Point Open your eyes Try to Understand What are you trying to create? Tell me what you Think Open your eyes Try to Understand Lower your head Be silent Take down the king Be your own God Be your own God Nothing but human Nothing but lust Nothing but ostentation Nothing but lies Lower your head Be silent Take down the king Be your own God Be your own God Nothing but human Nothing but lust Nothing but ostentation Nothing but lies Open your eyes Try to Understand Open your eyes

YOUR WILL BE DONE (Rogerio Mendes) Your will be done Enslave like a Christian Lie like a Christian Murder like a Christian Make a mistake Cause loneliness Promote hunger Politicize love Love Consult the TV Repeat the promises Hear God's Envoy Be afraid Feel guilty Feel guilty Live the lives of others Forget about yourself Abandon life What does life mean? I don't know But what makes you give it to others? Why? Why? Why?

about

The word “paroxysm” relates to the utmost exacerbation of symptoms, pain orfeelings. However, paroxysm can also indicate the exhaustion of the limits of human condition and survival. Such conditions and survival are increasingly deteriorated by the current social decay that affects human, political and environmental relationships.

Paroxysm, therefore, presents itself as a synthesis that encompasses the aesthetics of a time of destruction and despair. Paroxysm is the consequence of a sick world.

The songs were composed, arranged and recorded by Flávio França,
responsible for guitars and bass, in collaboration with Flávio Neves, who composed the drums and Rogerio Mendes who took the vocal duties.

Lyrics were contributed by King Lizzard, lead singer of Son Of A Witch.

Paroxysm is a project located between Natal and Recife and is based on a shared interest of playing dense and extreme music. It presents itself as a catalyst for the contradictions and emptiness of our time.
