“This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron; bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.”
(J.R.R. Tolkien)
*
LYRICS:
drying dusty
heart beside me
dead streets carving
bitter bright wings
worms and spiders
spin inside her
like the story
make me holy
this thing all things devours
this thing all things devours, devours
this thing, taker
pollinator
starving flowers
hear them howling

As a big Tolkien fan I couldn't not notice the beautiful reference to Gollum's riddle 💕💕 I see that you have inspired more than one song to some poems, right? :D

[@ayia9233]

so my friend and I have been trying to decipher the lyrics of Shapeshifter - we started with the easier ones (Wild, Three Hearts, Bloodsucker) and got some help from the kickstarter for All In Blue. We realized the animals match the video art - meaning that this one was likely to be about some sort of deer. is this song about a deer getting hit by a car and the driver feels guilty or are we losing our minds LOL the lyrics seem to fit pretty much perfectly

[@aeseaes]

thank you for listening to shapeshifter! yes, that was actually exactly the starting image i had for the song - an injured deer by the side of the road 🖤

[@robbiejames1540]

@@aeseaes Oh, I thought it was a song about time, inevitably devouring everything (but also providing for life - pollinator); I could never figure out the deer in the video! I adore all of shapeshifter (having a Much Madness phase atm). Do you have any plans for another original album?

[@Lilialynn]

Im your typical first comment, showing love to this amazing song

[@antsmith2576]

wow. just found this group. wow.... great sounding tracks and the vocals are brilliantly smooth.

[@tiagobonella1727]

I can't believe how good this album will be

[@elimidd6626]

I found this album last night and cannot stop listening, this music is utterly and beautifully hypnotizing to listen to, I'm considering getting the vinyl album in the future if my girlfriend and I get a record player

[@strawberrymilk5009]

This album's art straight up inspired part of a future book I plan to write

[@frankgeier2949]

Thank you for having your lyrics in the description! It can be hard for me to hear lyrics AND music at the same time so having the "subtitles" to go along with is super helpful. And, like so many others here I can't believe how good these songs are.

[@freyaaustin1250]

This album is really fascinating. I found it just yesterday and have been playing it on repeat! This album especially reminds me of a book I read called House of Hollow which is a sort of horror, mystery, fantasy book. I would recommend it to anyone who likes these songs and that sort of vibe. :)

[@annalisa32]

I read the book because of this comment and I liked it a lot Thank you for your suggestion! ☺️

[@Steam_Engenius]

I'm just so taken by the poetry of every one of your songs and how moving and evocative they are. The wistful vocals coalesced with melodic and perfectly simple yet intricate music that all seem to live in symbiosis are an audiophiles dream.

[@Snightbite]

God I love your songs!!! SO much

[@drunkenjedi]

This entire album is going to be amazing! Can't wait to hear this live!

[@AshenGrave]

this is such a beautiful sound and concept... absolutely marvelous

[@coeurlregina128]

Thank you Spotify Discover Weekly for leading me to this song!

[@xNyc008X]

I love this song, and the sound. I wish I could play it on my guitar. Are tabs available?

[@X3n0nym0us]

Good morn, this is such a soothing type of music

[@DarkDrakee]

The answer is time. Time destroys everything. Even the universe will be destroyed by time at some day. The more important to seize every second of your time. And I seize every second of this song

[@ras_krystafari3333]

Oh dear... ~♡¹

[@peppage]

Beautiful! Sounds like you'll use the upright bass when you play it live 😀

[@Pumpkinofgorge]

I love the aesthetic of this album, I've already pre ordered a vinyl! Love the reference to the time riddle! Will all the artwork come with the vinyl?

[@aeseaes]

ahh thank you! yes, it'll be our first gatefold vinyl printing to showcase as much of the artwork as we can. bitsandcrafts did an amazing job!

[@Pumpkinofgorge]

Awesome! February feels so far away 😪
