The use of physical totems or repositories of power has always been central to the ritual process; there is a two-way flow of potential between the actor and the object, whereby the object, which has a certain mystical, semantic, ritual, etc. significance, makes its inherent power available to the wielder (who is esoterically worthy of it, ie., has prepared his environment and himself through acts of purification, defilement, arrangement, etc., such that he is in a state of eligibility of the fetish object), and at the same time through incantation, gesture, and the performance of prescribed rites the actor imbues the object at the center of the rite _with_ significance and indeed legitimizes it as an element within the ontology of the belief system in question.

lyrics
When I close my eyes, I see a world destroyed
An epic abattoir, blood blown to air as ash
The screaming masses, their flesh explodes with gore
A world of agony, a universal gash
Bless humanity with fire, suck the seas and oceans dry
Strip the trees of giving light, douse the stars, and rape the sky
Bile coats the planet from my thousand spewing spleens
Give me darkness, give me hatred
Give me mankind blown to smithereens
Send a wave of carnage
Destroy all insolent life within its path
Pristine the violence
Your body torn into shreds by unseen claws
Release my loathing
Die screaming
Agony unholy awaits you all
First the child, crushed and gone
Then the bird, tossed from air
Then the fish, the mouse, the insect on the leaf
The gentle fern, withered black
The earth and waters poisoned
The sun blinks out beneath a blanket of my blackness bleak
Bless humanity with fire, suck the seas and oceans dry
Sap the trees of giving light, douse the stars, and rape the sky
Bile coats the planet from my thousand spewing spleens
Give me darkness, give me hatred
Give me mankind blown to smithereens
Their bovine faces will be replaced with shrieking pain
I judge you guilty of complacency profane
Bile coats the planet from my thousand spewing spleens
Give me hatred, give me mankind blown to smithereens
Give me love so I can hear it scream
Send a wave of carnage
Destroy all insolent life within its path
Pristine the violence
Your body torn into shreds by unseen claws
Send a wave of carnage
Destroy all insolent life within its path
Release my loathing
Die screaming
Agony unholy awaits you all

I saw these lads performing at the Brightside in Brisbane, with Blood Incantation. They slapped hard, tight as a nun's butthole. Played the whole show the day of the heatwave in 40 degrees and broken A/C, hot AF but they delivered, and more. BI drummer called it quits 3/4 through the show, not them. Def stole the show. alexatl
