Crooked Shadows In the Waring Here in this haunted manse, the secrecy we seek Within the basement chamber where all the monsters meet Approach at your own risk when Halloween draws near These crooked shadows lurking want nothing of you here Among The Absurd (lyrics by Stevo) Midnight in the proto-morgue and things are getting HOT Stumbling in somnambulance where evil marks the spot Monsters by the millions, the horde of creatures stirs Making time with KLAGGU who dwells among the absurd Come forth and writhe Legendary LIFE!! We are crawling forth, emerge from the abyss Foaming at the monstrous maw for evil’s rotten kiss A tentacle-fucking orgy, homunculi’s delight Gargling pus with blood and bone, let’s do this thing tonight! We are crawling forth, emerge from the abyss Foaming at the monstrous maw for evil’s rotten kiss A tentacle-fucking orgy, homunculi’s delight Gargling pus with blood and bone, let’s do this thing tonight! Lick the glands of immortal sin and slither in the muck The beasts of nightfall slime and swell in layers of wet fuck Monsters by the millions, akimbo and perverse Lusus naturae grope and vomit among the absurd Among the ABSURD!!! Come forth and writhe Among the ABSURD!!! Legendary LIFE!! Among….the…ABSURD!!!

about

CRYPTICUS presents its second Horror Grind Mixtape "Chains For Devils" - an original Death Metal mini-anthology designed to confound, horrify, & delight. A complete mini album of skull-crushing Pulp Death Metal with a few special guests. Collect them all!

(Bonus ASPHYX cover included!)

"(Crypticus is) like being trapped in a Gothic horror movie while a metal band is jamming somewhere in the castle. Each new release is even more insane then the last one. I think it will be a few more spins to peel all the layers. (...) should be mandatory to own for every book lover & collector of horror magazines and comics."
- Silvester the Goregnome, FONDLECORPSE
