1.
All is smoke and mirrors The illusion of legitimacy Slaves and masters Exploitation and governance Plausible slogans with corruption behind them Unconscious incarceration Thought crackdown Two wheels Rejected dichotomy Tyranny of the technocrats Method for totalitarianism  Centralization of power  Cunning cover-up  Complete control Blockchain grid Perpetual frauds Absolute static structure Testimony under oath Null and void Every lie has been revealed Every lie has been revealed Perpetual frauds never cease Ongoing suppression   Power is power All is smoke and mirrors
2.
Horror beyond horror A bitter lesson in the sandpit Fear overwhelms across different dimensions Open the door to dominance Psychological behavioral control Obey the principles of the indoctrination camp Exercise the infernal practices Brainwashing is fundamental Acclimatization check Horror beyond horror Scumbag replaced by a scumbag Dismissal  Waiting for the slaughter  Execution moment The time has come Death strikes you with derision Death strikes you with derision  Scumbag replaced by a scumbag Dismissal  Waiting for the slaughter  A bitter lesson in the sandpit Fear overwhelms across different dimensions Horror beyond horror

Syndicate 03:59
Kleptocracy, rigged in shadows Unscrupulously Vow of secrecy Ritual and faith Syndicate Sucking human blood, rapturous Systematic fraud - easy profit Might is right - power is power Kleptocracy, rigged in shadows Unscrupulously Vow of secrecy Ritual and faith Syndicate Devour the pineal gland Sabotage - wet-works Evil has no boundaries Vindication nullified Sucking human blood, rapturous Threats and profit - blood on your hands Corruption and fear dominate the world Kleptocracy, rigged in shadows Unscrupulously Vow of secrecy Ritual and faith Syndicate

The Alchemy 02:47
The fraudulent system The alchemical process Bloody dirty games, elaborate dodge The world is humiliated Mastermind behind the scenes Invisible entities, pulling the strings Puppets on the stage, just consumed Rotating agents in and out of supremacy - and nothing gets done Perpetual squeezing, unstoppable laughter Nothing has been changed Disillusion is yet to come  The ignorant continue to be pillaged The Babylon bee stings again and again Perpetual squeezing, unstoppable laughter The fraudulent system The alchemical process Fail to notice the fraud for centuries The alchemy never ceases 
5.
Demagogue 02:13
Shattered dynasty Lurking in the shadows and pulling the strings Dethroned - the saviors left insane Highest bidder, not a shred of care An inverse reaction Scorching You falsify Beneath the marquee To rule - by coaxing valiant lines Rise to the throne Demagogue Highest bidder, not a shred of care An inverse reaction Monarchs of the badlands Wraithlike premonition Rise to the throne Demagogue Writing on the wall erased forever
6.
Fraud and war on humanity - ordered from the deepest dark The incident happened behind the grand chessboard Destruction named a social reform Irony and sneers Covered with lies Intelligence operations Penetration work  Espionage and agents The hoax explodes Obscurantist policies The terminal phase The terminal phase Propaganda and mass incitement Puppet regime and its master The figurehead shows off the hand sign Corrupt cops beat up the people Absurdity and coercion Twisted idealism Purging storm The world is completely destroyed Now you are in the terminal phase Now you are in the terminal phase
7.
Trojan Horse 02:35
A horse in disguise At the darkest hour The lumber-made death machine Fully rigged Demons hatching inside the horse Trojan horse Set the victims on the list Crusaders without mercy Indestructible legions They wait until the time is ripe Come out from inside Trojan horse Set the victims on the list Emergent measures - lock-on Humanity held hostage Time to kill Too late, itʼs too late Itʼs your fault Dark shadow is on your side Unstoppable genocide You are doomed
8.
A spectrum of fear, the radiance in darkness Black lights shine through the ruins Nowhere to hide The eyes are everywhere Concealing an emanation Many ways to a nihilistic end Perceived by pain The power doctrine - surrounds with endless deceptions Connected with the dark forces - through multi dementional layers In a blink of evil eyes - you are annihilated A spectrum of fear, the radiance in darkness
9.
The crook, a symbol of rule A symbol of ancient slavery The attributes of the deity, an insignia of authority The ruler's crook stood for kingship Power of life and death in the hand Beneficence and intimidation The crook and flail The crook and flail The flail, goading slaves A symbol of the coercive power The flail for the fertility of the land A shepherd of the flock Complete enslavement The ruler restraining the slave  Symbol of their control over the slave The ruler as a shepherd The crook and flail  The crook and flail  Power of life and death in the hand Beneficence and intimidation

Echo chamber of double speak Truth and lies - camouflage Confusion matrix A cancerous growth Replicator dynamics Rise of turmoil The deaf gather Hoaxes and fears Self-generated Induction to asymptotic stability Equilibrium point of mechanics Hoaxes and fears Duplication of lying Self-generated Words becoming action Absorb and integrate False prophets Wrong prediction Confusion matrix A cancerous growth Replicator dynamics Rise of turmoil The deaf gather Hoaxes and fears Self-generated

Equinox 03:04
Behold, the beginnings of the blackened earth A new age of terror Power shift denied Rebirth of the red Renewed hatred Enslaving without end Closure Equinox - a time of gloom has arrived Dark state domination Enhanced annihilation Behold, the beginnings of the blackened earth Equinox - a time of gloom has arrived Deterioration Transformation The soulless growth Dehumanization Praise unbalance Disharmonic layers Mass masquerade Vileness maximized Abundance in tyranny Equinox - a time of gloom has arrived Mass masquerade Vileness maximized Abundance in tyranny The beginnings of the blackened earth

The Chains 03:16
The coming dystopia Herald of its arrival Total control surveillance state The insider warning Humanity is on the verge of extinction The chains The chains It's time to break the chains Visionaries in exile Sealed, fake statistics The new norm - deaths rising Violent fury Megademo eruption Repression Track and trace Assassination Underlying Blatant lies The chains The chains It's time to break the chains Fabricated the existence of nonentities Being deceived A looming nightmare Chains of anguish Unspeakable power - but at equal cost in blood The chains The chains It's time to break the chains - on the verge of endless slavery
13.
Psychopomp 03:13
You have always agonized Dared to do what you should not Longing for painless death - blindly and furthermore In a moment of the temptation The zeal for suicide Psychopomp What you wish comes now Psychopomp Euthanasia and sacrilege No restraint of divine piety nor morality The immediate depression - and desire to take your life The limits of patience Willing to die The only way for a solution The zeal for suicide Psychopomp What you wish comes now Psychopomp The neurotoxin spreads rapidly Quick and concrete satisfactions What you wish comes now Psychopomp Comatose now It's too late - waiting for the judgement day
14.
Difficult times Full of shitty lies Never-ending bloody strife Locked in states of war Chaos fabricated Walls of deceit Blackened forces assault the swarm Disease, warfare, and the forgotten myth Using myth Ignorant sneers Panic after panic Wave after wave Struggle among ignorant masses Stabbing each other Victims trapped in the corner Concentration camps being built Complacent in the greatest persecution The path to your elimination Dissolved visions Time to leave this secular world Question sanity at the last moment Who's the winner? Who knows the truth? Who sees behind the wall? Who sees behind the wall?

about

Since clawing their way out of Tokyo’s grim underbelly in 1992, DEFILED has carved a bloody swath through the global death metal scene with their bone-crushing aggression and intricate artistry. Cementing their legacy as stalwarts of savagery, their unrelenting assault has remained as visceral as ever.

Welcome to the abyss of ‘Horror Beyond Horror’, DEFILED's cataclysmic latest offering sealed with the wickedness only seasoned demons of death could conjure. Each track a more grotesque exploration into the depths of human depravity, the album viciously melds old school death metal savagery with strands of technical thrash and progressive psychosis. From the frantic onslaught of “To See Behind The Wall” to the sinister grooves of “Syndicate”, DEFILED invites you into a haunting panorama painted in the hues of horror. Submit to the relentless riff avalanche in “Smoke and Mirrors” and the methodical menace of ‘Horror Beyond Horror’. It's an album meant to be played loud and with complete surrender.

Plug into DEFILED’s ‘Horror Beyond Horror’ and let the madness set you free—the only thing more brutal than reality is this album.
