THE SPIRALING VOID // LYRICS
Life is pain and the world is grey
A spiraling void in the frantic soiree
Sunken eyes see only misery
The figure I feared in the shadows was me
Wallowing in hell
To lift the grisly spell
A prisoner in this flesh
A sense of hopelessness
Round and round and round we spin
With feet of lead and wings of tin
I want to be punished for my sins
Tear through my muscle and my skin
I want to be punished for my sins
Tear through my muscle and my skin
The shroud of bewilderment
My infirmary beyond the throes of the spiraling void
A longing to be free from this desolation…
Denied
A spiraling void in the frantic soiree
Sunken eyes see only misery
The figure I feared in the shadows was me
Falling faster
Losing sight of what I am
Rip my flesh off of my body
Peel the muscle from my bones
Sentenced to this wretched vessel
Suffering to be atoned
Round and round and round we spin
With feet of lead and wings of tin
Wallowing in hell
To lift the grisly spell
My skin, my cell, where I will suffer well

That 'clean' distortion tone is great.
That’s as high gain as tone should ever be, bedroom guitarists take note!

Addiction is truly a demon no one should ever have to battle...
michael and the keenes
+ChartyMcFarty69 Capn Keene and the Shrimp Shack Shredders
Rustin Badger So yes. I love it. The Faceless Oneders.
+ChartyMcFarty69 fur your health, ya dingus
Marnell Kreengus and the fachelles, ya brangus
+Rustin Badger Oh man that comment made my day! Hilarious!
well, I'm going to have to play that at least 20 times in row
+Kinnzie Martin Same here bro
Yep
Did this last night
I'm on about #18...
+Kinnzie Martin I'm nearly at 30 replays right now.
This sounds like it combines Autotheism with Planetary Duality but the best parts of each to make the perfect sound. This is too cool...
The opening is amazing. It just jumps right into it. Unlike In Solitude, Prison Born, in which those usually start slow or have a wind sound.
This is truly. One of their greatest.
Wtf bro? You summed it up perfectly well 💯 it sounds exactly you described 🔥🔥
I fucking screamed when I saw this.
Same!
+Axl same lmao
Yes
+Axl Same, Bro! jajajajjaajja
I'm taking a shit in the restroom at my school and I screamed
Hey Sumerian, this was 6 months ago. Asking Alexandria sucks. Please show us more of the new Faceless record.
Seconded
yes.
I imagine itll be out by next year at the latest
+TheMeatballMen They shouldn't even be on the same label.
+Daniel Collette they really shouldn't.
Man, the guitar tone and his ideas are just touching.
well I'm faceless now, because this melted my face off
Don't melt your pretty face
Post salsa tech-death at 2:25
If this is what the new album sounds like, I'm gonna be a happy guy.
This was released a year ago today and still there's no update on the new album. God damnit.
You pissed off the gods! Again.
It took me till thursday to get the shirt i bought from them back in fuckin august............god
they're going Necrophagist
Alfonso Uriarte You should never go _full_ Necrophagist!
lmao. nice one
The Faceless is back✊🏼
+Nathan Donias yeeeeeee
So is Evan!
+Noah Papafagos This is actually original bass player Brandon playing, Evan is in another band now.
+Sam Garcia any clue who's on drums?
+Seth Young It's Chason Westmoreland who plays with Hate Eternal these days.
God, how beautiful are those solos?!
More beautiful than most other solos
Check "Rimskys Beard" by Daniele Gottardo if you want another godtier solo that is on this level tho :)
That last part is so catchy...
Oh my. I love every song they've ever done...
+Michael McCuin I'm glad Randy Bobandy cheeseburger king approves!
+James Buhr bobanarannnnn
+Michael McCuin RANDY!
Randy you fucking mustard tiger!!
mufuckas with guts like that definitely ON the cheeseburgers
Yes.
Yeeeeah!
Probably the best band on Sumerian
Periphery.
This song along is the best of sumerian
In the midst of lions plus they were the greatest Christian metal band by far. Except for Becoming the Archtype.
Most definitely
I wonder how many times has the lineup changed since they released this song
easy to talk shit, but I seem to recall one of the greatest DM bands ever had the same issue what was that band called again? oh yeah DEATH.
drummerdude0515 Death's overrated as fuck. It's like the Iron Maiden of Death Metal.
the point is a lot of great bands have constant line up changes
so overrated band which influenced an entire subgenre called technical death metal. Chuck schuldiner was 20 years ahead of any other 90s band, every album is different and u can clearly listen to ann evolution of the music. Maiden's got stuck in their 80s and writing the same old stuff even to this day. Music is personal taste, but stating they were overrated it's really out of context.
It's all because Keene, even though he's one of the best that have ever lived, is a big fucking premadonna.
Reminds me a lot of planetary duality love it!
Just what I was thinking! If this album has a concept, we're back on the Keene glory train ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
+Noah Papafagos Thank FUCK. I've always felt that was the pinnacle of their sound, sure they evolved bla bla bla but P.D. still has the most enjoyable songs by The Faceless imo.
Ha ha ha what the actual fuck are you talking about? Name me just one single The Faceless album that fits into one key
+TimmyScandi No sense in arguing with the kid look at his name. I guess something has to be in the same key to sound like something. Has nothing to do with time/phrasing. /sarcasm
+internetwarrior666 he can't listen to technical death metal because he doesn't have the knowledge of music theory ?
After a few more listens, I really love that watery flange effect on those arpeggiated chords. Really awesome choice for adding depth to those parts!
Best thing I've heard all year.
And this is a year in which we had new BTBAM, Tesseract, STS, and more.
if only the whole album was produced and sounded this fantastic, what a shame
this and Black Star are on a different level to the rest
@@dankmeme5196 Big agree. The album has the worst production I have ever heard.
@@Draggo. plus this version of spiraling void sounds way better IMO than what made it on the album.
The production is so thin and sharp, but I still love the music itself. I’m just glad we got another album at all though. It’s probably going to be the last unfortunately.
Keene's songwriting is out of this world.
Cmon guys I'm fucking waiting
I really dig this tune. I know the last album didn't sit well with some folks, but it really grew on me, so I'm happy to hear a continuation of the vibe that album had with its songwriting. I'm excited to hear the rest of this album!
a fan of the faceless cant lose hope they always release something thats never less then before and never sounds dofferent enough to be hated like BMTH
The switch at 2:25 was unexpected but added so much flavor than what's to be expected from another faceless song, these guys know exactly what they're doing
This is really good. I knew Michael would have no problems in carrying on with the Faceless despite a complete turnover of band mates again.
This song really sounds like PD type stuff, can't wait to hear more.
This band never dissapoints me :')
i want morreeeeeee
M2!
Yeah.i know.u means m32 m8 is male 32+8=40yearsold.that's ur age.
M2=me too:-P!
Is this black?
+DaViD AMP get out of here with that shit the faceless has boy bounds
My head is going to burst with anticipation for the rest of the album! This was sick as a dog.
"According to The PRP, “Keene goes on to say in the comments of the post
[that] he has plans to do a solo album following the completion of The
Faceless record, adding that he already has 5 songs written and recorded
for it.” Keene first announced that record in 2012, so he seems to be
writing at a rate of about one song per year. So either it’ll end up
being an EP, or it will finally be complete circa 2021, at which point
it will sit on a shelf until 2030, after the release of the new Faceless
album. Hopefully Keene’s album of stand-up comedy material will follow
shortly thereafter, and then we can all just die already."
Finally. I'm going to replay this until I hate it.
Lmao i was thinking the same thing lol 😜😜😜😏
It has already taken me 5 years
Trust me i tried that... it'll never happen
5 years later.. and?
i'm crying for how epic is this song. THANK YOU FACELESS
The version of this song that should’ve made it to the album imo.
Been listening to the faceless since like 2009
they just keep releasing great tracks every year. we have micheal keene to credit for keeping the projects alive.
Well, I know what I'm listening to for the next few days on repeat.
I'll never get tired of this song. For fuck's sake, Michael, release the fucking album!
Like a rollercoaster of sounds and song moments, that's what I like in songs. Keep the good job.
Sounds like keene took the best elements from the last albums to come up with this song, awesome !
You people are never satisfied, jesus fuck. This is fucking amazing, I can't wait for a full album to come out! Keep it up, The Faceless! \m/
+Metal555Fan what are you talking about man? everyone's happy :D
Looks like plenty of satisfied people to me, what with all the positive comments and far-eclipsing up-votes!
+Stephen Chapman although before reading the comments I was almost sure people were bitching but I'm really surprised right now!
+Metal555Fan It's great.... but it's definitely not The Faceless most were hoping for. In all fairness I really like all the The Faceless's stuff except this one because they've changed and progressed their sound, but this song on the new album just seems to me as if Autotheism wasn't complete and this is it.
Stephen Chapman There are alot of positive comments, true! But look further down in the comments section, tons of negative stuff... I mean, to each their own, but come on, this sounds like a song out of Akeldama or Planetary Duality, it's awesome.
Their musicianship never ceases to amaze me.
that last minute or so, pulling off that awesome simultaneous creepy/beautiful sound that i didnt think anyone but Opeth could do well. love it.
that part starting at 3:50 hooked me
Still waiting for the album
Beautiful. This takes me back to 2006-2008 when all the bands on Sumerian now came out with their best albums. It's good to see The Faceless sticking to their roots
AND THEY'RE PLAYING IN ANAHEIM ON MY BIRTHDAY! Thank you metal gods for bestowing such an eventful evening on the day I was cursed to this earth.
Christmas just came early. And so did I....
+Levi Sadler LOL.
Relax Dirk.
+Levi Sadler Christmas is more or less a Pagan Holiday.
+Levi Sadler Christianity is not the sole owner of Christmas or the Virgin Birth story.
This song slays so it is certainly an early gift in celebration of a Humanity-wide celebration of Winter Solstice.
+Levi Sadler haha you spiritual nazi!
+Levi Sadler lol I thought Christianity wasn't a religion?
It's like Autotheism and Planetary Duality had a baby
as much as I love all of The Faceless's music.. this is their best song.
This is miles above their last album. Can't wait for this album to drop, arkaik, and gorod are soon too. ahhhh so much to look forward to!!!
I don't even know what to type. BEEN WAITING 3 YEARS. 3. YYEEAARRSS. DAMN TIME.
The Albumless -_-"
Al Pra He is going througg some personal problems bro.Last time i talked to him on skype he wasnt doing to well.It takes time to make music and life problems is taking away his time right now and he basically lost all his band mates so its hard to get people together that arent busy with their own personal problems to fins time and practice together.
Malik Berry do you know if he's checked into rehab yet
after a few listens this is pretty fucking fantastic, it has all of the core elements of their sound but with a greater sense of maturity and creativity
Sounds like a lot of the PD fans, including me, are going to be very happy with this album!!
late 2016 still waiting
Bruce Sprague even later 2016, still waiting
1 month left to '17.. still waiting
Fisrt 11 days of 2017, still waiting
This is turning into a necrophagist kinda thing
4 months into 2017. still waiting
reading these comments it feels like i'm the only person who liked autotheism
not at all!
+Just 4 Run I feel like that too, its one of my favorite albums
+Just 4 Run Just played for about the 140th time! lol
+Just 4 Run I think it is their best album. Exactly the kind of proggy tech death-craziness I was looking for. And this new song is splendid.
you are not alone. Love me some Autotheism.
This song hits really close to home. I'm fucking loving the direction they took,and they can do no wrong in my opinion.
I'm really glad that what happened to The Haarp Machine didn't happen to this band.... it sucks to see good talent go to waste. This band was able to bounce back from losing all of its members and I'm so happy they're making music again.... super stoked to see these guys when they roll around to Dallas on tour :D
just two words: fucking amazing.
hey its been almost a fucking year and still no info on the album minus the fact that it MIGHT be called In Becoming A Ghost
I'm right there with you
Bruce Sprague im so pissed about it fucking lazy asses need to hurry up
Well, their vocalist ended up quitting on them. Again. Not much they could do about that.
+Swagu I wonder why. he was beast and plus, the faceless is one of those bands you need to skill level to keep up.
They don't owe you anything.
The faceless is going down the same road as Necrophagist.
One of the few tech-death-metal bands, that don't bore the hell out of me.
I might be the only person still patient for the full length release.
So many misfortunes have come along for The Faceless and I hope it all mends together soon.
This will always be one of the most influential and progressive death metal bands to date.
But...What if???!!! it sucks?
I don't think they would put out anything less than what the standards are. Each release is great to me.
I love this band 🤟🏻
i think justin is influencing some of the faceless' most technical riffs yet, so sick
Thanks dawg
Planetary Duality feel with Autotheism production. Perfect!
Cmon new album! Im starting to think maybe this was just a B-side from Autotheism. 3:51 on is just killer.
Life is pain and the world is grey
A spiraling void in the frantic soiree
Sunken eyes see only misery
The figure I feared in the shadows was me

Round and round and round we spin

My skin, my cell, where I will suffer well

My skin, my cell, where I will suffer well
My skin, my cell, where I will suffer well
My skin, my cell, where I will suffer well
Ever checked the description?
I'm glad Derek is back.
I may not like Michael Keene much as a person but god damn is he an incredible musician and songwriter
2:05-2:25 Good lawd thats some good shit!
My upset is now turning into genuine concern lmao. Where'd ya go the faceless?
Michael Keene is struggling with heroin addiction. :(
this band can have different members every week and still never release bad material...TAKE MY MONEY!
I've never been happier for a concert
what's slenderman's favorite band?
The Faceless *ba dum tss*
"Marigold" riff at 2:49 lol
omg
The first half of the bar kind of, but then the second half is just a repeat of the first where in Marigold it goes up higher. Also just sounds similar because they are both in 7 time
damn
Easter egg from sumerian record
A whole year passed, and this song is still just as wonderful to listen to as the first day it released
Finally!!!! Something that doesn't have whinny vocals!!!
Guys, this isn't an album announcement. Remember Subject Zero? could be another 2 years before we have a new album.
When I found out about this song, the first thing I thought was "fuckers are about to pull a Subject Zero on us..." Same label, too, although I'm not gonna base my opinion on that. :-p
No, it was an album announcement. The vocalist just quit on them so they had to put it off.
+Swagu Anything to back that up?
Apparently they are still working on it, but I'm not sure how it'll work without a vocalist.
facebook.com/thefaceless/posts/10153398213601074
+Swagu Damn. Still not getting my hopes up though
Seeing as how it took me until thursday, 2 days ago, to get the shirt I ordered from them back in fucking august. Its not surprising theres no new news about this cd. Matter fact its not surprising they cant even keep a stable lineup to make the fucking thing. Seeing as how demon carcass already left again.
all hail the return of demon carass \m/
The solo at 2:04 sounds very classically influenced. Sounds like a heavy Bach influence. I approve.
Never really got into The Faceless but this song is so damn good
Still no update on the new album... more than a year now. We need this so badly... >.
Can't wait to see them live.
Cheers from Mexico.
wow this new song is just...FANTASTIC!!!!!
the guitar tones in the beginning remind me a lot of Psycroptic
This is not hating on any bands (because I'm a fan of both) but it's funny how this and bands like I See Stars are on the same label.
Iseestars was one of only three bands on Sumerian at point. Also, look at the previous signed artists like Bizzy Bone, from bone thugs.
They have a bunch of shifty bands. But they also have Circa Survive and The Faceless. So Sumerian. they be cool.
I love iseestars for when they dropped 3D and Bizzy's album was on my shelf the day it came out. I remember seeing him when he was at such a low, he was a greeter at Wal-mart, and that was the first time I saw him lol I love Sumerian and their willingness to deviate and experiment with their roster. After the Burial and Veil will always be old favorites of mine, but from when it was ISS, VoM, and Born of Osiris being the only bands on the label when I first stumbled upon Sumerian, until now, I can honestly say Sumerian's diversity over the years has definitely influenced my tastes, and up until a couple years ago, was a main staple in my musical diet. Now everything just seems to have such a lessened impact and I find it harder to listen to the original bands that got me hooked on Sumerian five years ago. Stray and Periphery were always stuck in my head and now I just listen to new releases and feel meh.. Mostly, its just my tastes having ventured in a different direction; I'm just bummed that I've lost my own connection with an entire label. But is anyone out there really sitting there going, "Holy shit I cant wait to hear what Bodycount does next!"? Haha its nice to see them get some more veteran blood though, Circa was a great addition too. And crosses, TRAM, and Rarity were some killer additions as well. Last thought... I think Struc/tures / was superb
Sumerian is good
+havoren I had entirely forgotten about Erra. Augment was a great album at the time of me getting ahold of it. I got very attached to them at that point
Pretty sweet. Guitar tone sounds very Rings of Saturn so that makes sense. Glad to see toothgrinder moving up the ladder, good on them.
this brings me absolute happiness. i love that they keep the same sound but tweek it just a little bit and yet its still satisfies. idk. this is metal.
The faceless > Born of Osiris
okay
+Mikaël Bilodeau y compare them?
+Mikaël Bilodeau Ones tech death and the other is deathcore wtf
Both bands pretty much rule their respective genres though
Exactly
This version was so much better man
Yeah. Guitar tone doesn't sound nearly as compressed, and the cymbal hits don't sound super bright.
Sounds more like oldschool faceless, nice. Like always it's always better listening to music live, and I still haven't seen you. Hope to see you guys before you fall apart again.
So good to have Derek 'Demon Carcass' Rydquist back on vocals! It just sounds right... A very progressive piece with that distinctive TF sound. Can't wait to hear the rest!
where's the rest of the album damn it!!!?
Please check in Spotify . Maybe have
2:25 wut
+Mike St. Martin SO GOOD
+Mike St. Martin Absolutely loved that!
+Mike St. Martin reminds me of nina simones's sinnerman. what a great song
+Mike St. Martin - Better than the crying babies and cheesy xylophones in Emancipate, or the carnie sections in Deconsecrate. I hope they don't throw that shit in this album.
+Mike St. Martin ft. Kygo
So stoked to see them with Rings of Saturn in SD baby! Wooo!
I love how Keene makes that guitar sing it gives me goosebumps
