LYRICS
So who’s left standing?
Failed icons feeble and abandoned
Deities that stood so tall
No longer looking down of us all
Such a fall from grace
Now lying in ruin
Completely disgraced
Count your blessings you lasted this long
It's a bitter sweet swan song
Heavy is the crown
No one there to save you now
No one
No one at all
And look how far you've yet to fall
Maybe you’ll lament
But you can't climb back from this descent
You stole a part of us
That we can never replace
No apologies
No second chances
Damage is done now serve your sentence
The signs were there
But we buried our heads
Hard to ignore but harder to reject
So hang your head in shame
You're fading
Heavy is the crown
No one there to save you now
No one
No one at all
And look how far you've yet to fall
Maybe you’ll lament
But you can't climb back from this descent
You stole a part of us
That we could never protect
What will become of those broken memories?
You shattered the hearts of oh so many
Who is the face that awaits in the mirror?
Do you cower in despair?
If my heroes aren’t dead already
Then the rest are dead to me
Heavy is the crown
No one there to save you now
No one
No one at all
And look how far you've yet to fall
Maybe you’ll lament
But you can't climb back from this descent
You stole a part of us
That we can never replace
Heavy lies the crown

It's been really hard to find new music that's good. 35 year old men with a mortgage and a family have a really hard time finding any. But my God this is some thunder! Dear metal community: more of this PLEASE!

Check out a band called World of Lawder. Heavy riffs, hard vocals and just a good band

[@rockingperson24]

Proving yet again that they are one of our best metal bands today. So glad they are going strong after their hitatus.

[@beebopoped4720]

When was their hiatus?

[@13guitard00d]

@@beebopoped4720 They went on hiatus at the end of March 2016 (officially announced in September that same year) until December 6 2019, when they released I Sever and announced Cycle of Suffering.

[@damiendelvallee7256]

@@13guitard00d The hiatus was beneficial then... This album kicks major ass

[@13guitard00d]

@@damiendelvallee7256 Yes, it was. In fact, Josh ended Sylosis in 2016 because of his self-imposed restrictions on how the band should sound (E standard tuning, 80s thrash as a primary influence, vintage-oriented production, no breakdowns, etc.). He immediately started writing songs for a new project and sent the demos to Nuclear Blast and they said it sounded like Sylosis, so he added some more Sylosis-isms to those songs and made Cycle Of Suffering. The real reason that the hiatus was officially announced was him joining Architects. He slowly worked on recording CoS during the hiatus. Also, he's stated during one of his Twitch streams that his new goal with Sylosis is to make "metal metal" music, in the vein of Pantera and Lamb of God, since he finds there aren't many bands like that nowadays.

[@damiendelvallee7256]

@@13guitard00d thanks for the heads up. It sounds like Josh ditched some of his self-imposed limitations (at least on the tuning) for the last album. Good for us if it unleashed his creativity.

@@dani_i8942 First time I've been disappointed with a track from them to be honest. I am glad though that this one won't be on the new album that they're bringing out, Josh said at their Pulse of the Maggots show that the new record is going to be super heavy so that's something to look forward to, just hoping they don't get too metalcore.
