Agony Scene, The - Serpent's Tongue Lyrics






Beneath your swollen excess
You dig a shallow grave
Built upon the backs of those
Who dare stand in your way
Stamp out the ones who doubt
The merit of your legacy
Ignore the sacrifices made by
Those less fortunate

You'll find your reach falls just
Short of your gaze
From the depths to the throne,
Does it all look the same?

Burn all who dare to question
And they will know your name
Tear down the weak and desperate

A wolf in sheep's disguise
Blessed with a serpent's tongue
They serve to hide from the world
What you really are

Agony Scene, The Serpent's Tongue Comments
  1. F.... ....

    Drummer clearly put in work (not that he was ever bad lmao) and is flexing across the entire album and really shaping its sound. Digging it!

  2. C.... W....

    I just picked this up a couple days ago...and this is definitely their heaviest album!!! Definitely not the vibe of The Darkest Red....but this is a more aggressive thrashy with lots of black metal hints!!

  3. B.... 2....

    Nice to hear a guitar solo out of these guys

  4. T.... D....

    Any clean vocals on the new one?

    T.... D....

    Nope none kind of surprised me but I like the new sound

  5. S.... B....

    Yet another masterpiece - their new album is going to be relentlessly beautiful and heavy!
    And once again, this is a band that knows how to evolve their sound.. <3

  6. f.... ....

    I love The Agony Scene but this is so boring to me. I loved them for their sound from the Darkest Red (one of my favorite albums ever) but a lot of people seem to like this so good for them.

    f.... ....

    morwen angelus literally said nothing negative except this wasn’t my cup of tea, suck it dude.

    f.... ....

    They're definitely straying away from the typical metalcore formula, and there seems to be a good deal of black metal elements on this album. All the same, definitely digging the new sound and that they didn't soften at all over the past decade

    f.... ....

    Axel Carnage kinda reminds me of TBDM

    f.... ....

    @John Doe ....yeah they completed the transition

    f.... ....

    I don't like this at all, I've tried the whole new album....it's definitely their most ambitious departure from their old sound, but it's so disjointed, clunky, and devoid of groove, 70 percent of the record is momentum killing blast beats. I can see why people might dig this, the sound evolution is more in tunes to their fans taste nowadays. Only one song on the entire album leaves any impression and that's "Mechanical Breath"

  7. L.... R....

    been listening it 10 times in a row now :D thanks guys, nice track

  8. T.... h....

    They are back?

  9. W.... ....

    Been looking forward to this ever since they debuted it in... 2014?

  10. l.... ....

    Has always been my favourite vocalist, so fucking powerful. Good to have them back

    l.... ....

    lukeslayer I met him and Chris in Grand Junction, CO in 2004, both such cool dudes. I met Mike before their set and was right in front when they went on, he kept handing me the Mic. Such a cool dude and this band holds such a special place in my heart.
