Discography:


 Instinctual (album, January 1, 2011, Abran Records) (CD-R, Digital)

1. The Calm Before The Storm 0:50
2. Balance Of Power 4:48
You know that he's got the power to beat you
But he can feel the cold of your blade against his back
It's pointing to the void where the spine is supposed to be
The only movement now is breathing in and out

Neither of you dares to take the first step
Afraid of the consequences of the smallest mistake

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

When will this morbid dance end
When can you finally sit back and relax
When can you leave behind the fear and insecurity
When can you move forward without constantly watching your back

Beat the enemy
Without suffering
Irrecoverable loss

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

Waiting for this cold war to end

3. Reign Of Terror 4:34
The grinding course of life takes its toll
This fragile world of ours is out of control
The crushing force of death stands at the door
As we hate each other and fight in senseless wars

Day after day we take precious lives
Brother against brother, the blood of Abel cries
Thirsty for blood, we're killing our kind
Don't count the cost, we're losing our minds

Hatred begets only hatred
Violence gives birth to violence
Blaming each other for the wrongs that have been made
While the real enemy is hiding behind the schemes

Posing as a savior, spreading evil lies
The great deceiver, mankind's demise
It won't be long until you meet our demand
Your reign of terror is coming to an end

Posing as a savior, spreading evil lies
The great deceiver, mankind's demise
It won't be long until you meet our demand
Your reign of terror is coming to an end

Hatred begets only hatred
Violence gives birth to violence

Hatred begets only hatred
Violence gives birth to violence

4. Instinctual 5:09
"Human aggression is instinctual. Humans have not evolved any ritualized aggression inhibiting mechanisms to ensure the survival of the species. For this reason man is considered a very dangerous animal."
-Konrad Lorenz

Feel the blood boiling in your veins with excitement
Your conscience steps back as your instincts take the control

The words from your mouth ring hollow to my ears
Conceived in a rotten mind, so still and cold
You're claiming that you have the answers
But you don't even listen to the questions

You're on a downward spiral, losing all control
Faster and faster on a suicide drive

The words from your mouth ring hollow to my ears
Conceived in a rotten mind, so still and cold
You're claiming that you have the answers
But you don't even listen to the questions

The fuse is burning
The countdown has begun
Do you dare to face the final outcome?

Kill it if it bleeds
No mercy for the weak
The brutal beast has been unleashed

You make planet earth a place of fear and distrust
As I look at you my heart gets filled with disgust

The words from your mouth ring hollow to my ears
Conceived in a rotten mind, so still and cold
You're claiming that you have the answers
But you don't even listen to the questions

5. Scorched Earth Policy 4:55
You've always tended to hate the ones
You tell you the truth you don't want to hear
It's easy to pass a quick judgement
On the ones that do not have a share in your fears

Are you afraid of reality?
It's the only thing that can set you free
Are you afraid of freedom
From the bounds that set your direction

Seeing yourself from the outside
Can be a shocking, unpleasant sight
When the picture is not distorted by
The excuses of your cheating mind

You feel when vanity
Took the place of sanity
You'll never be able to stand again
Until you dare to face the fear within

Your scorched earth policy
Shocks and scars the heart in me
Lookin' 'round among the victims
Of your vile, merciless schemes

Never forget to remember
Who you were and what you've become
Always keep in mind
What you learnt and what it cost

Live for the ones
Who need you the most
Die to yourself
Don't refuse to pay the cost

You feel when vanity
Took the place of sanity
You'll never be able to stand again
Until you dare to face the fear within

6. M.A.D. (Mutually Agreed Destruction) 6:36
Distorted visions
From ruthless minds
One is bad, the other worse
Or the other way around
Too much power
Concentrated on both sides
The balance is hanging
On a tread

You are gambling with other people's lives
In this game no one will ever win a prize
Victory is out of the question
It's a lose-lose situation
Complete annihilation

Driving fast on a path that leads to nowhere
You say that it's the price we pay for progress
Waiting for the wind to change
To bring us peace and the end of your reign

Gone are the days of all or nothing
(All or nothing)
Both of you're just making it nothing for us all
Gone are the days of all or nothing
(All or nothing)
Both of you're just making it nothing for us all

Shoot first, ask questions later
Or don't ask at all
Take no prisoners this time
You need no witnesses left alive

You are gambling with other people's lives
In this game no one will ever win a prize
Victory is out of the question
It's a lose-lose situation
Complete annihilation

The field is ripe for the harvest

You are gambling with other people's lives
In this game no one will ever win a prize
Victory is out of the question
It's a lose-lose situation
Complete annihilation

Driving fast on a path that leads to nowhere
You say that it's the price we pay for progress
Waiting for the wind to change
To bring us peace and the end of your reign

Gone are the days of all or nothing
(All or nothing)
Both of you're just making it nothing for us all
Gone are the days of all or nothing
(All or nothing)
Both of you're just making it nothing for us all

7. The Iron Curtain 3:41
Isolate yourself from those you used to call friends
You're surrounded by servants who will cut your throat when you fall

After an offense no apology heard from you
You feel the void but arrogance stands in the way

Let's put an end to this separation
Let's put our weapons on the ground

Let the iron curtain fall

It's time to look in the mirror and face what you've become
It's time to accept the hand that's reaching out for you

Let's put an end to this separation
Let's put our weapons on the ground
Let's mend the wounds we cut by our words and actions
Let the ruin be undone

Let the iron curtain fall
Let the iron curtain fall




Viable Mutations - An Introduction To Abran Records Vol. 2 (split/compilation) (CD-R, Digital)

Metal-Archives states this was released September 1, 2015, while Abran's Bandcamp says it was released May 7, 2017.  Can anyone explain this?

1. Number Our Days - Balance Of Power 4:45
You know that he's got the power to beat you
But he can feel the cold of your blade against his back
It's pointing to the void where the spine is supposed to be
The only movement now is breathing in and out

Afraid of the consequences of the smallest mistake

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

When will this morbid dance end
When can you finally sit back and relax
When can you leave behind the fear and insecurity
When can you move forward without constantly watching your back

Beat the enemy
Without suffering
Irrecoverable loss

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

Waiting for this cold war to end

2. Number Our Days - The Death Machine 4:13
In this world
Order can be maintained by fear alone
But this order is disorder
Where power is given to the fools

In this kingdom of the blind
The one-eyed man has to hide
Jealousy, envy, selfishness and greed
Turn brothers to enemies

Man has mastered killing
The switch has been turned on
The button has been pushed
On the death machine

Offering yourself
As a living sacrifice
On the altar of fear
Lying paralyzed

Man has mastered killing
The switch has been turned on
The button has been pushed
On the death machine

"All the advantages that man has gained from his ever-deepening understanding of the natural world that surrounds him, his technological, chemical and medical progress, all of which should seem to alleviate human suffering... tends instead to favor humanity's destruction."

3. Number Our Days - Mass Grave 7:06
Breathing corpses infest the land
Their numbers seem to grow by the hour
Victims of rulers unleashing lies
Fear, terror and deceit

Weapons of mass destruction
Some kill the body, others the soul and mind
Engaging the process to turn
Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde

Am I still alive
When I feel like lying among the dead
I can hardly breathe
As the stench of the deceased fills up the air

Watch people going out of their minds
Gladly throwing their lives away
Paying a fortune to their killers
And thanking for the opportunity

Am I still alive
When I feel like lying among the dead
I can hardly breathe
As the stench of the deceased fills up the air

This earth is a
This earth is a
This earth is a
This earth is a mass grave

I desire an awakening
The resurrection of the dead
The revival of humanity
The rebirth of a dying race

A new heart pumping new blood
A breath of fresh air
The reign of terror ended
The once scorched earth fertile...

Again!

4. Number Our Days - Growing Cold 3:32
We've started the process
We've created a god
Worshipped by the masses
Is this the end of times?

This new deity is hungry
It needs sacrifice
Giving up our free will
We threw away our minds

We were born into
The age of information
Yet the knowledge we possess
Is becoming less and less with time

We are living in
The age of space travel
Still we are closed
In the tiny little world of our own selves

We have built a throne
For the ones that tread us down
For the sake of comfort
We're becoming slaves

Our brains are washed out
Still we're so unclean
Functioning as numb machines
As we're growing cold within

We were born into
The age of information
Yet the knowledge we possess
Is becoming less and less with time

We are living in
The age of space travel
Still we are closed
In the tiny little world of our own selves

Break the bonds
Free your mind
Get back what is yours!
