Darknight It's absolutely insane just how good this EP is! Superb progressive death metal with amazing song writing, Achromatous have just become the band to keep a laser eyed focus on. Can't wait to hear what they do next. Favorite track: Erythraean.

Poesy Rider à l'écoute de l'intro et du premier morceau, je me suis dit : "Tiens, c'est pas mal !" ; et le troisième morceau m'a fait taire... Pas mal ? bien ? Non, excellentissime ! Favorite track: Erythraean.

mourner Great songwriting and obviously strong musicianship make this release very interesting. Achromatous are a band to be reckoned with if they keep on developing their strength. I like the vocals, too. Very versatile and highly entertaining progressive death metal at least worth checking out. I'll keep an eye open for Achromatous. Favorite track: Erythraean.

Verdant 04:42
The origin of existence - The seed of all living Genesis of diversity - The provenance of being But One crucial defect in design: Arousing a species that would disobey It wept away within seconds what required aeons to form A monumental downfall preluded by ingrate heirs A mutual illusion of hope: The enclosed construct of finiteness Embodies a last resort for the perishing mother The superior principle of survival Countless iterations, endless miscarriage Birth – Privilege – Avarice – Collapse. Collapse. Where affliction meets amendment Where demise proceeds revision Where grave errors herald milestones When nature plays its decisive role Wearing a wintry verdant smile Putting a shroud on a tomb She seduced us to burrow with unlikely ease Large enough to fit us. Both.

Erythraean 07:58
A crimson flow of vitality A continuous but unlasting flux [An eternity ends In absence of nothing Pushed by a solvent]* Providing essentials and upkeep with diligence: A morbid insomniac of self-preservation As the circular flow proceeds it grows prone to infection It impacts its host with volatile incidences The warrantor of life Is the carrier of the end! Blushing, warming, exciting The protractor of sentience Hurting, bleeding, coagulating The manifestation of exitus Resistance is futile! It's no part of the concept. Choose to survive by chance or forfeit at once. A crimson flow of imminence Continuously nourished with mischief Providing squalor and gradual attrition: A frantic insomniac of martyrdom. Seeking repose pervading each pore Fulfilling the erythraean paradigm

Mauve 05:44
Inerasable witness revealing - Revealing a course of events Where argumentation Fell victim to a lesser instinct When deficient comprehension, inadequate consideration Result in negligible relevance of respect The ultimate instruments of persuasion Become violence and agony Where argumentation Fell victim to my lesser instinct Basic instinct degradation, false decency permutation Evoke inevitable absence of reason Why does fear of concession Entail hate for the unknown? I fell victim - to my lesser instinct Where I fell victim to my lesser instinct. Of rage. Solely the voiceless witness Delivers undeniable evidence Picturesque indications for an atrocity: Where tongue was demand Pain was enforced supply Mauve bruises – the hypothetic adumbration Where tongue is demand Pain is endless supply How the last impossible effort was made And wounds heedlessly evocate further requital Of rage.
5.
Azure 06:53
Beneath the atmosphere - Where the treacherous sky Accompanies the disguise of the sea The global petri dish is degenerated to an ash barrel for hazardous waste A vessel of azure salt: Pressed to a pill As an excessive demand (to) a scarce reservoir Inundates anguish with marginal concerns Concealed under the ensign of progress? Concealed under the ensign of progress! An ocean of corpses, remnants fed for evolution With a bucket of organs, a can full of manure A tank filled with feces of nescience - the malnutrition of offsprings An ocean of corpses, remnants fed for evolution While the sky was ruptured, it frugally condoned the elixation of its own marrow, of its own marrow. The aftermath in its entirety Unbosoms earth's decocted medulla A vessel of azure salt: Pressed to a pill For humanity's voraciousness, to die in a pool of birth For humanity's voraciousness, to die in a pool. Of. Birth. Azure.

about

"Colour is the place where our brain and the universe meet."

This quote initially shaped the overall concept and idea behind "Achromatous", which can be interpreted very ambiguously in many several ways.

This also applies to the EP's individual songs as well.

More specifically, our brains and the universe are to a certain aspect considered connected and in contrast to that both are completely separated from eachother, simultaneously.

Our actions have no effect on what happens in the universe, but in a more narrowed down context, i.e. the world we live in, we really do create an impact on our surroundings.

Color, being a specifically subjective sensation of radiation is a very prime example for the beginning of human perception, its highly personal interpretation and its boundaries which Achromatous - meaning the absence of color - takes as a metaphor for humanity's being in time, space and our mostly socialized environment.
