Fleshgod Apocalypse releases first single from King

Today sees the release of “The Fool”, which is definitely the first single from Fleshgod Apocalypse’s upcoming King, and apparently the first time they’ve ever released a promotional single. It certainly seems to cast the band’s music in a poppier light than you’d expect from the rest of the marketing material; consonant orchestral sections and generic melodeath progressions alternate in rapid succession with occasional clean choruses making for an especially basic experience. It seems as if Fleshgod Apocalypse’s modus operandi is to shock and awe potential customers with the novelty of their sound and the clear technical and organizational aptitude that it takes to perform it. If you end up converted and purchase the entire album (which you should be able to starting on February 5th, 2016), don’t be surprised if you tire of it after only a few tracks.

    Memories is all that’s left behind
    As DMU lies and waits to die
    Little do they know
    That Prozak hears their choice of strife

    End it now, there’s no traffic today
    Too cruel, that is what autists say
    Release Prozak from this lonely world
    There is no hope – Why don’t you

    Pull the plug (on DMU)
    Let the site pass away
    Pull the plug (on DMU)
    Prozak can’t live this way

    Once Prozak had full control of this site
    We now behold Gabe’s promos decide our fate
    End it now it’s all to late

    What has now been days, it seems like years
    No fervor of David Rosales left in our rears
    DMU ends so fast, so take your chance
    And make it last

    End it now, it is the only way
    Too cruel, that is what autists say
    Release Prozak from this lonely world
    There is no hope – Why don’t you

    Pull the plug (on DMU)
    Let the site pass away
    Pull the plug (on DMU)
    Prozak can’t live this way

      I would like to ask Gabe an honest question:

      If you had the chance to let a thick cock ram your butthole in exchange of knowing the exact day of your death, would you do it ?

      This is awesome. We should write up a simple speed metal album with these lyrics.

    All the theatrics and it’s still boring as fuck.

    Also, RIP Lemmy.
