Trying to stave it off
Awash in the master plan
On the peaks
Down in the draw
Time like water runs through your hands
Hold it as you might
The grains will slip away
Leaving feelings wound up so tight
The army never retreats
The pangs of hunger setting in
Trying to break the spirit of the land
Through the Winter digging in
To Spring in fields of battles ingrained
Where the dust has blown
It slowly accumulates
The past will rise up again
In strange and new mysterious ways
Trading majestic drone for smoldering assaults, the iconic Japanese outfit rekindle the leaden aggression of their early period. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2020

Conjurer is a special band. I can't put my finger on it, but I love everything this band does and Mire is my favorite album from them. It is one of my favorite albums of all time. Conjurer's songs are so musically dynamic, alternating tempo, harmonies, growls/screams. It is terrific. I love their use of major harmonies as well. I can't play this album while I do anything else because it keeps pulling my attention back to the music, and I hear something new on each listen. bwill05
