dcdirkzwager This type of modern metalcore is usually not my cup of tea. Somehow, Allt knows to hit home with these tracks. The electronic flourishes really are the cherry on the cake.

starvynth "Nowadays, ambient/symphonic arrangements are very popular within the -core genres like metalcore, deathcore and djent. Thankfully, this particular sound hasn’t become saturated enough to the point where you can’t find great new bands anymore. Allt is one of them. Allt’s music is mysterious, ominous, catchy, emotive and all-around very interesting for anyone curious to hear what these genres can achieve."

KKoller I really miss the brutal yet emotional metalcore from mid and late 00s, I guess that's why this become instant favorite for me. I love how clean and moody the clip and animated videos are, hits the spot for me. Favorite track: Paralyzed.

The Seed 05:19
It was silent The only one who spoke was the wind with the leaves The only one who moved along was the sea Silently A noise swept in A noise to end our forever Yet it keeps me alive Can't you hear it by their voice? They are not what they seem to be Is it all in my head Or will they never leave? It's taking root in me The seed of self-destruction I cannot help but feed Waiting for it all to die Why am I still alive? Waiting for it all to die If it all has a purpose Why do I strive for the end? Forever caged I guess we'll just have to see how it ends Would I Remember who I was if I died here? Would I Remember who I was if I let you in? Tell me How deep is the sea that you dropped me in Tell me How deep is the forest where you left me It's taking root in me The seed of self-destruction I cannot help but feed I quench my thirst in the river of the cursed And let my flesh taint the soil of the earth Would I Remember who I was if I died here? Would I Remember who I was if I let you in? Tell me How deep is the sea that you dropped me in Tell me How deep is the forest where you left me Left me I know I've said it all before But I'm tired and it helps When there is nothing else Forgive me please I know I've said it all before But I'm tired and it helps When there is nothing else Forgive me please

Paralyzed 04:13
A sense so strong Must have been gritting its teeth since the day I was born Is it a shape or a form? I'd describe it as more of a color A feeling A storm That won't leave me alone Like it's living inside of my bones I feel it everywhere Slowly it tunnels its way through the walls Only a matter of time They've got their goals and I've got mine But I'm stuck in this prison of flesh and bone Paralyzed All I've got left is the sight And something's Moving in the corner of my eye Wants me dead yet it keeps me alive Crucified Crucified And I can see the light The eclipse is here I'm so near Near the light But they will pull me down Down where I belong It's so cold down here Yet nothing can equal this warmth Gather A thousand voices And sing me a ballad of woe Paralyzed All I've got left is the sight And something's Moving in the corner of my eye Wants me dead but it keeps me alive Run through the dark my child Run on with the moon right by your side Paralyzed All I've got left is the sight The eclipse is here The eclipse is here And if I died here would my soul still live on? Would I be more than the shape of a man? I keep on shouting but there is no answer The silence is deafening The silence is deafening Yet it keeps me alive Paralyzed All I've got left is the sight And something's Moving in the corner of my eye Wants me dead but it keeps me alive Run through the dark my child Run on with the moon right by your side Paralyzed All I've got left is the sight So why am I still alive?

Have we all lost? Have we all lost our own beliefs? And let these shadows dance for far too long in peace Just like a parasite That eats us from within We let negative emotions over and win As the night runs ever darker So it seems to do within With my eyes closed I move forward As my feet touch the sea It's calling me The deep blue silent The deep blue silent So let me sink again And fall into to the bottom of my hole It calls me home And I dream of a day when this feeling will stay The feeling The feeling of nothing at all The feeling of nothing at all The feeling of nothing at all As the night runs ever darker So it seems to do within With my eyes closed I move forward As my feet touch the sea It's calling me home It's calling me home It's calling me

Severance 04:03
Are you sure you wouldn't play god? And rip the clouds apart Swing the scythe And water the rivers in blood In time all will flood Or are you here to forgive? No! No! You are here to punish them all Apocalypse within the world that is you The gardens of Elysium empty Corrupted by the daemon within thee The seed I sowed A notion of the downfall Sever me Sever me at last It over lapses It disappears Just to come back again The end is near When the sun is out I'm burning And when the night is dark Time is frozen The faceless stay afraid The faceless stay afraid The man without a face Is staring back at me again Close my eyes a thousand times Still blinded by the lies By anger he conquers By love we survive It over lapses It disappears Just to come back again The end is here When the sun is out I'm burning And when the night is dark Time is frozen My body breaks My soul decays Am I the remains of a memory? Sever me My body breaks Sever me
