Conflux Cornucopia Cerebellum Cocktail Hour: Episode #018: Bloody Mary’s!: A Metal Mix to Cure Your Iron Deficiency.

Saturday, November 13, 2am

Podcasts

Hello fellow Alchemists and Confluxians. Yes…there in terrible epidemic in our country. Iron deficiency. Did you know, that Metal music is the dominant form of music world wide….everywhere except here….where some of the greatest metal of all time was generated?. So to help cure that iron deficiency I am bringing a healthy dose thought this tasty Bloody Mary Metal Mix featuring Metal music from all over the world. Though I listen to a great deal of non metal music, I still find that the most inclusive and explorative styles of music that seeks to include these other styles is Metal, the other is jazz, which is why this show is typically glued together with combination of jazz and metal and it’s peripheral content.

Although nearly every metal enthusiast and historian will agree that Black Sabbath are the Godfathers of Metal, it’s clear that Iron Maiden has risen the bar to new level and have spawned the expansive evolution of the genre with nearly all sub genres owing their earliest roots to Iron Maiden, or to a band who does for some of the newer bands. Amist the immense landscape of options, Maiden still remain and intense draw. 46 years and still going.

Unfortunately, 2020 saw the loss of drummer Sean Reinhart and Sean Malone leaving the band’s core without its heart beat.

19. Invincible (12:24) by Tool from Fear Inoculum (2019) Los Angeles, California, USA 1993-Present. Tool is one of the most intriguing and iconic bands have an extreme cult following despite only releasing 6 albums in the 31 year existence. Fear Inoculum, released already two years past now in 2019 was preceded 13 years earlier by the album 10,000 Day, which fans jokingly refer to as the interval between albums. Despite constant touring, the time between recording became such as that there was a fear that they had become irrelevant in the musical landscape. The album as a whole and this song in particular, address those feelings in Maynard’s typical deep and reflective manor. GO READ THE LYRICS BELOW.
20. Egoist Hedonist (8:57) by Riverside from Anno Domini High Definition (2009) Warsaw, Polland. 2001 -Present.

21. Spherical Perspective (7:41) by Voivod from The Wake (2018) Quebec, Canada 1982-Present Emerging at the great time of the Bay Area Thrash Metal Scene, Voivod took that style and added a more progressive rock approach with the song structures while keeping the essential vibe of thrash metal at its core. Former Metallica Bassist Jason Newstead also spent time as member of this classic band. The band continues somewhat under the radar producing great music.
22. FINAL MIC BREAK: XIV (1:52) by Born of Osiris from The Discovery
23. Behold (5:51) by Born of Osiris from The Discovery (2011) Chicago, Illinois, USA (where I was born) 2003-Present. Part of the next wave of Djent (originated by Meshuggah) which includes bands such as Animals as Leaders and Periphery. They dropped off my radar for a little while as I felt they entered a period of mediocrity, however the 2021 release of Angel or Alien seems to have revitalized their creative juices and has been an intriguing listen so far.
The lyrical content of these songs are deep and reflective. Please spend the time to read them while you listen to these wonderful songs.
SOEN: OPPONENT
Quiet rest, with a rope around my neck
I assure you that the time is coming near
Fight them all, break the spirit and the bone
All I care for is what’s happening to me
Pushed away and rejected from first day
Never felt that I am like everyone else
Architects of my intellect and flesh
Always pressured me towards the common frame
So now, chuck it down your throat
See me stand
Among the waves
The slaying hand
Still I am
The dream and fall
A hateful grace
Growing darkness war within
Emptiness
Shadows alter my reflection
Desolation marks my skin
Loneliness
Visions alter my perception
In Isolation, I slowly drown
Vague destination
For words I shout
Victimized by my equals all my life
Consequently rival of the obedient mass
Parody, be submissive to act free
Be what dividend is telling you to be
Mockery of the essence of our kind
In the mirror you see nothing but a farce
Linger on, aiming far but ending close
Bearing excess as an instinct, not a choice
Desire, downfall
Possessed by greed and numbers
The more we want it all
The worse we treat each other
Desire, downfall
Possessed by greed and numbers
The more we want it all
The worse we treat each other
Growing darkness war within
Emptiness
Shadows alter my reflection
Desolation marks my skin
Loneliness
Visions alter my perception
In Isolation, I slowly drown
Vague destination
For words I shout

OPETH: HEART IN HAND
Det är för bedrövligt. Usch!
Vem fan är du?
Take it as a threat now and leave
Drop of toxins flows to a habit
Tell me what it is you can’t see
Teeth grinding flesh in the sabbat
Factual drowning stream, you believe
Slaves will follow conspiracy
Turn the locks on brother and kin
Murder lust on affinity
War in utopia
Slay cornucopia for symmetry
The parody is real
And we’re biding time
And while losing ground, make sure to worship monarchy
Death is but a story in a land of borrowed wealth
The burdened scale weighs heavy with the hunt for dopamine
Intolerance disguised as a faith
In secrecy we shun empathy
Soul critique online far too late
A throne for the devout enemy
War in utopia
Slay cornucopia for symmetry
The parody is real
And we’re biding time
And while losing ground, make sure to worship monarchy
Death is but a story in a land of borrowed wealth
The burdened scale weighs heavy with the hunt for dopamine
When I was young
So, so much younger than today
It seemed easier to lead your life
There was no time to surrender
And no reason to perceive
The burden of pain
As it passed through our lives every year somehow
And it never (really) went away
Yet behind my door
Was a kingdom
A secret outline showed the way
To treasures of clay
And beads made of glass

HAKEN: INITIATE
Love and pain
Engage your senses
And let them carve the way

Give me
(Give me)
Focus
(Focus)
Sharpen
My view
Initiate

Live here and now
And forever or never

I observe a world jarring in turmoil
A million people waging war at the hands of a god
And I can hear them crying
Cold fires blazing before me
An affliction fast consuming and fascinating me

(Drifting)
You’ll be
(Deeper)
The life and the death of me
(Into)
I
(The unknown)
Initiate

We’ll make this dream last forever and ever
Tears will run dry
From my ever wandering eye
But I’m prepared to stay
‘Til my dying day

I’ll see things you won’t believe
In tomorrow’s memories
I’ll do things you can’t conceive
There’ll be no strings on me

Open the floodgates
Form the colours and the shapes
Let there be a light
Initiate, all my senses are engaging
Open the floodgates
All the love and all the pain
Let there be a light
Initiate, all my senses are engaging

(Distance)
Tell me
(Stretches)
How does it feel to breathe?
(Further)
(From home)
Initiate

I’m drifting
(drifting)
Deeper
(deeper)
Into
(into)
The unknown

LEPROUS: MIRAGE
Join in with me, with me
We’ll fly on someone else’s wings
To where everybody’s one
Above the sky, we reach
It’s written black on white
The truth, follow the lead
Echoes of the same old song
Sing with me, with me
In unity
Join in with me
I, I have been trying to break out for too long
From the cage
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong
I have been trying to break out for too long
From the cage
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong
Stay close to me, to me
I’ll show you all you need
To see, to see
Close your eyes, your eyes
Trust in me, I’ll be your guide
Blindly
Join in with me, with me
I will be your guide
I, I have been trying to break out for so long
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong
I have been trying to break out for too long
From the cage
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong
I, I have been trying to break out for too long
From the cage
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong
I have been trying to break out for too long
From the cage
I found my path when I thought that I was wrong

IRON MAIDEN: STRATEGO

How do you read a madman’s mind?
Teach me the art of war
For I shall bring more than you bargained for
Give me an ultimatum
That I could not dream of
Spills of a crying nation
Upon my soul
For I have not a mortal soul
That you already know
Look at my eyes
There’s no surprise
Ocean is black, the devil’s track
Looking beyond, beneath the sea
Eye of the storm is here again
Been there before you were ever born
Beyond the dark, I feel the pain
It’s hidden but I can’t explain
A cross to bear
A heavy faith
My sorrow whispers
Time again
I hear you calling my name
Come to claim my life again
Pray for me, I’m almost there
The pain almost too much to bear
I try to find my way back home
To feel the same again
The voice of nothing listened far too long
Little by little, eat away
I think I’ve lost my mind
Too late to change now
What I left behind
Hear me, listen to my call
I am ready to fall
Lord, hear me now, let me go
Ocean is black, the devil’s track
Looking beyond, beneath the sea
Eye of the storm is here again
Been there before you were ever born
Beyond the dark, I feel the pain
It’s hidden but I can’t explain
A cross to bear
A heavy faith
My sorrow whispers
Time again

GOJIRA: AMAZONIA
Incite a riot, put yourself in a trance
You rotate the frame in a world you rely on
A scar, a line has been drawn in the sand
Behold the life, the boundaries fools will crush
The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground
On to the next stage of the plan
Mourn the witness of the wind
A hand, full of thunder
Will rise one last time
There’s fire in the sky
You’re in the Amazon
The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground
Godly Amazonia
Bloody Amazonia
Mighty Amazonia
Killing Amazonia
Godly Amazonia
Bloody Amazonia
Mighty Amazonia
Killing Amazonia
Godly Amazonia
Bloody Amazonia
Burn the land
Learn the end
Burn
Another gold mine is unveiled
The source of our sorrow
Learn
Embedded in these walls of green
Is the curse that we follow
There’s fire in the sky
You’re in the Amazon
The greatest miracle
Is burning to the ground

MASTODON: SICKLE AND PEACE
Death comes and brings with him
Sickle and peace
Please excuse the madness
Of the situation I am in
Are we only united
For we both share the cause of this
You choose to apply logic
It’s hard to ply where there is none
My detonation’s unknown
Allow the man to walk in his shoes from here
Death comes and brings with him sickle and peace
Shelter from storms come with long flowing robes
Justifying all your control
I cease to mourn what never could be
No feeling’s ever final
Just another scar I wear and hold dear
Death comes and brings with him sickle and peace
Shelter from storms come with long flowing robes
Falling down and losing ground
Save me from myself
All I’ve seen and all I know
I’ve not been this low
Now I stand up on my own
Learning from myself
Where I’ve been and where I’ll go
Still remains unknown
Death comes and brings with him sickle and peace
Shelter from storms come with long flowing robes…

RIVERS OF NIHIL: “Cancer / Moonspeak”

Fear, fear drowns the mind
In this kingdom of mine
And standing in the hall
The faces of them all
Real, like empty space
They know what I became

RIVERS OF NIHIL: THE SILENT LIFE

The sun leaves on its own
A simple passage of the days that I have wasted
I feel the summer slipping through
These aging fingers

Compelled to walk upon the same path that I have tread so long
Still nothing changes
A simple passage to a place that I have come to know
I still remember

A better time
When the thoughts that we had connected
Between our open eyes
We say goodbye, to a life that’s been mostly silent,
Erroneously lead.

Strive to complete myself
It seems my work is never truly done.
I see your face, barely through the haze
You see a life, erroneously lead.

There’s hope in younger days
There’s warmth within the past that’s so familiar
I forget just why I came here
I Hope that you remember
Home.

IHSAHN: ONE LESS ENEMY
Half awake, deprived of sleep and dignity
I stand before the blinding lights
My body trembling, survival instincts gasp for air
Rays of madness tear the nights in me
Torn from the slumber, like a drunken king
To watch the cities burn
The world I used to see, no longer a part of me
In bleak reflections, stripped of my humanity
Yet I have all to gain
The slate is clean
And all the “why’s” I need
The stakes are high
The wheels of fate have turned
The chariot awaits
And I will set the course
On paths of tribulation
A refugee of reason
In a world of disbelief
Outnumbered by the thousands
Empowered by the ones I seek
Yet I have all to gain
The slate is clean
And all the “why’s” I need
The stakes are high
The wheels of fate have turned
The chariot awaits
And I will set the course
On paths of tribulation.

CYNIC: INFINITE SHAPES
The indivisible goose egg
An irreplaceable loose peg
It never satisfies, incomplete
The future won’t arrive
Nothing to seek
Don’t you worry now

Infinite shapes
Architectures opaque
Infinite shapes
Paper tigers at play

A kamikaze seed
Breaks ground
Sprouts up inside of me
Spreading down
It poked into my eye
Cracked the egg
Now there’s a tentacle
Growing limb-like eggs
I won’t worry now

Infinite shapes
Alpha beta erased
Infinite shapes
Vital connections engaged
Sit down
Behold the open crown
Through the eternal halls
An Earth amidst the balls
One spark
Shooting across the dark
Fear, craft and avarice
Become a dust-filled wish

Infinite shapes
Paper tigers at play
Infinite shapes
Alpha beta erased
Infinite shapes
Vital connections engaged

The indivisible goose egg
An irreplaceable loose peg
I won’t worry now

BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME: TURN ON THE DARKNESS

Lyrics
The winters breathe evenly.
Flickering moments engage our senses.
Slowly trembling advantage.
They won’t take notice.
Dragging feet. Will time notice me?
We turn our backs on ourselves.
Nothing in sight.
I see a flame erupt in the distance.
The charted course towards my direction.
A wealth of moving light, they now seek my disguise.
Legs soon crack as they stand above/below.
Where do you drift from, sir?
This land is for those who have lost.
Our humanity has passed its curse.
We roam with all that’s left.
I come from a movable past.
A distant future is in my grasp.
You all will survive this fate.
Trust the man you gaze.
Take me with your flame.
Darkness
Show the brighter way.
Hopeless
Take in all. Sit with our teachings.
Above. Below.
Take in all.
Above. Below.
Sit with our teachings…
Dream tonight to push us forward.
Black ash improves me. Dark skies are hollow.
Above. Below.
Take in all.
Above. Below.
Sit with our teachings…
Dream tonight to push us forward.
Black ash improves me.
Can’t look past the damage to this life.
Dark skies are hollow.
Can’t look past the damage to this life.
Welcome to our journey. Please walk with me.
I’ll put your mind at ease
Our breath, disrupts their flames.
We walk through their walls.
Life exists apart from this.
This lone world drifts on and on.
In the distant light modern man awaits.
Dripping jaw accept our twisted travel.
Screaming grins howl loud from high…
A gritty focus gripped.
We turn our backs on ourselves.
Nothing in sights.
We turn our backs on ourselves.
They won’t take notice.

THE CONTORTIONIST: EBB & FLOW
The integration has taken hold.
We have risen from our roots.
We have seen
Signals, (the end) start of progression (the end).
Drift with the ebb and flow.
Sink in the ebb and flow.

Litanie contre la peur (The litany against fear-Frank Herbert)
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

TOOL: INVINCIBLE
Long in tooth and soul
Longing for another win
Lurch into the fray
Weapon out and belly in
Warrior
Strugglin’
To remain
Consequential
Bellow out loud
Bold and proud
Of where I’ve been
But here I am
Beating chest and drums
Beating tired bones again
Age-old battle, mine
Weapon out and belly in
Tales told of battles won
Of things we’ve done
Caligula would grin
Beating tired bones
Tripping through remember when
Once invincible
Now the armor’s wearing thin
Heavy shield down
Warrior
Strugglin’
To remain
Relevant
Warrior
Strugglin’
To remain
Consequential
Cry aloud, bold and proud
O’ where I’ve been
But here I am
Where I end
Warrior

To remain

Strugglin’
To remain
Consequential
Tears in my eyes, chasing Ponce de Leon’s phantom soul
Filled with hope, I can taste mythical fountains
False hope, perhaps
But the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time bearing down
Tears in my eyes chasing Ponce de Leon’s phantom soul
Filled with hope, I can taste mythical fountains
False hope, perhaps
But the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time bearing down
False hope perhaps
But the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time bearing down

RIVERSIDE: EGOIST HEDONIST
Once in the middle of the crowd
I stopped
Suddenly I felt so good
Not being on the move
But became an obstruction
In your way
And I was surprised how fast you could unite
Against me
When you forced me to the ground
And tied my hands
Certain I couldn’t disturb
Anymore
I saw the sadness in your eyes
Your fear
And the most secret desire:
“Escape from here”
In pursuit of uniqueness
And individuality
We must be unlike anyone else
To survive
But in the mass of different runners
Different lies
We can’t make time to realize
How the same we are
So let me live without your pain
Just let me live without your pain
‘Cause I want to feel so
It’s not right
It’s not fair
When I am forced to live your life
It’s not right
It’s not fair
When I am forced to live your life
It’s not right
It’s not fair
When I am forced to live your life
It’s not right
Just let me live without your pain
Just let me live without your pain
Just let me live without your pain
Just let me live without your pain
Just let me live without
Congrats this time
You’re a borderline pass
Here’s your reward
Now smile
After all
You conform to us
Drag on
Forget yourself in the final dance
You already know the steps

VOIVOD: SPHERICAL PERSPECTIVE
This nice spot that I found
Connected to the ground
I’m staying here all night
Staring at the open sky
Till my eyes… Bleed!
Then my soul starts to fly
Far from the chaos of this life
All these calls seem unheard
For the lost cause of this world!
This forest where I hide
Away from the city lights
It’s where I meet my peers
Those who are no longer here
Till my heart… Bleeds!
For so long, I’ve been out there
Being strong in despair
But tonight, I’ll get lost
Till my bones turn to dust!
Hard to be heard
No one is listening
You can’t be seen
If the sun refuses to shine
Why should I be?
If this life has no meaning
I’m travelling far away out there
Through the sky deep in my head
I escape!
Feelings get hurt
And no care is given
Such a lonely star
In darkness confined
Look up at the sky
And no care is given
Such a lonely star
In darkness confined
For so long, I’ve been out there
Being strong in despair
But tonight, I’ll get lost
Till my bones turn to dust
…Tonight

BORN OF ORSIRIS: BEHOLD
I can’t stand
The bitter denial
Neglected consciousness
Forgotten rights
The book has been written
You cant change the ending
What is your confusion
Know your own condition
Lay down and think about how you’ve lived out
Your wasted time here is over and gone
They left us and we can start now our evolution
Expired
Empty
Expired
Extinction
The refugees have deserted the city
No longer producing the age old concerns
Of how we can conquer and watch them crumble
It’s far too late to question
They knew this would happen the book has been written
Set in stone now they’ve seen it now they know
Is this a miracle or imagination
Your invention or destruction
We are here alone
At last we are finding answers
Reveal the meaning of what we really are
