Official music video for "Overwhelming Mass" off the 7th Sonus Mortis album "Of Red Barren Earth" just released on the 25th October 2023.
"Overwhelming" is a song written in 2022 and on the surface level talks about environmental exploitation and destruction - the 'red creeper' spreading across Earth symbolising degradation. Humanity will not stop, whether it's microplastics, clearing the amazon for farmland to ship South American "beef" halfway across the world to Europe like the merosur deal EU signed up to meanwhile we half our herd numbers leaving us vulnerable to future food shortages. Using cancer like metaphors to imply these problems are deeply rooted and spreading, posing significant challenges to humanity's survival. The "core violation" within all of us, inherent human flaws or societal norms that have instilled harmful behaviors. Lyrics like "infected minds of influence" on how people are manipulated or led astray by those in power.
The lyric 'nefarious greenwashing bastards' is targeted at corporations or governments that pretend to care for the environment while contributing to its destruction in many forms while we fear and consume.
Mixed and mastered by Mick Richards at Trackmix Studios.

Lyrics:
Overwhelming Mass!
The core violation stems from inside all of us, and it's growing.
The red creeper spreads its vines across the bowels of Earth,
Tightening its death grip.
Damned creation feeding off another paralyzed nation.
Breeding us to kill,
dehumanise and vandalise our infected minds of influence.
Still, searching for the new and true fake Messiah to worship
while spitting out bile with venomous tongues.
Overwhelming Mass! Overwhelming Mass!
This cancer has passed the turning point for humanity, we will never return.
Cells have just begun to break away from the malignancy.
Tightening its death grip.
Doomsday machine, relaying consequences that have been foreseen.
Convincing us to die,
dramatise and acclimatise our worsening situation
depicted by nefarious green washing bastards that will never give you up.
They will bleed you dry while they metastasize.
Overwhelming Mass! Overwhelming Mass!
