Parasite Twin

Nicole_L_R The entire EP is phenomenal and immensely enjoying this gothic/Industrial side of Clemens. Have listened to it on repeat since it arrived. Impossible to pick a favorite track. I am so very glad to hear more of Clemens' rich accented vocals. The tracks remain true to the dark yet enthralling characteristics that are inherent of Clemens' works.

1.	Machine (Memoirs of an Algorithm) 02:36	lyrics	buy track
I was built at the hands of heartless souls Obfuscation cloaked in nuts and bolts I was made to follow Decimate and swallow And leave you one-eyed In the land of the hollow Machine Machine I am here to break you down to parts Eat your souls and pierce your hearts
2.	Parasite Twin 03:48	lyrics	buy track
Parasite Twin We are one and two are me I am the leg she is the knee My sister's head is next to mine She's got my back so we'll be fine Twenty fingers, nineteen toes She's the eyes, I am the nose It's confusing, I suppose Don't be shy as we come close Parasite Twin Under my Skin She's my Sister Within My Parasite Twin Under your skin When I'm calm, my sister is not It's cold in here, it's fucking hot bla bla bla and meep meep meep God damned I'm trying to sleep She always picks the opposite Go Stay Go Sit stand sit There's one thing on which we do agree: You are weird and so are we Parasite Twin Under my Skin She's my Sister Within Parasite Twin Under your skin I'm your sister within Your Parasite Twin We were born at midnight When the wolves kept mute and the moon bled bright Autumn dying the dark conspiring Parasite Twin Under my Skin She's my Sister Within Parasite Twin Under your skin I'm your sister within Your Parasite Twin
3.	Nightmare 03:46	lyrics	buy track
Let me be your guide Let me stay by your side I will stay all night long And I will be your bride Countless sleepless nights And i'll give you for them I'm your friend I'm your dream I'm your nightmare Nightmare

I've got stuff to tell you Yeah, so much to say... You're Fucked Up I'm Fucked Up
5.	Closing In 03:19	lyrics	buy track
Give me something to see Give me something to feel I want to know I want to know it all… I leave nothing concealed I'm closing in You can't see me Watching you from so near Let me see Let me hear Let me be Your voyeur I know you and all your ways The things you eat The words you say I'm watching you all day long Although it's wrong The urge is strong I'm closing in I'm closing in Shut me up Spit me out I'll take it all Without a doubt I live off your life And feed on it No, I'll never regret it I'm closing in I'm closing in

about

"Parasite Twin" is an experimental exploration of darker, industrial grounds expanding the creative boundaries of Wijers usual more symphonic and classical approach.

With lyrical themes varying from the futuristic and massive "Machine", in which the protagonist reflects and confesses the systematic and gradual decimation of his victims, to the title track, in which parasitical twins drag you into their world in a bizarre and darkly humorous way.
"Nightmare" and "Fucked Up" are the most abstract and intuitive tracks. Wijers wrote the lyrics in a stream of consciousness and kept them unedited and pure.
"Closing In" reveals the inner world of a stalker, an idea that came to Wijers after a past experience.

Franckensteina Strataemontanus
by Carach Angren

supported by 11 fans who also own “Parasite Twin”

The Netherlands black metal masters return with a bombastic and symphonic masterpiece, taking on the Frankensteins' monster tale with their own sadistic twist. Razor sharp guitars and machine gun blast beats mix perfectly with synths to create something beautifully melancholic and horrific. Abyssius Murkraken

supported by 5 fans who also own “Parasite Twin”

Another beautiful fit of insanity spewed forth from the tainted minds of Zornheym. Words cannot express how much this Album kicks ass. Please continue this ongoing storyline of The Zornheim Asylum, two albums isn't enough to satisfy my thirst for straight jacket fun. A symphony of pure talent and passion, fused into the realm of the shattered mind. Well done. Abyssius Murkraken
