And the void answered back... In the beginning was the Dark And the Dark was with the Void And the Dark was the Void Without it was not any thing made that was made Pitch black tapestries of formless expanding darkness Atramentous threads from infinite isotropic nightmares Arcane prison of baryonic asymmetry The caustic vacuum of imperishable eternity And the Void was made flesh as dark energy Plucking the droning cobwebs of a billion eons Fabric from cosmogonic braided strands Across motoric motifs of straining disarray The primordial procreation of emissive mechanics Disengaged across prismatic principles Dark serpents coil through countless cicles Chromatic chrysalides collide in the chaos From embryonic epochs beyond cognition Towards eons extricated from all vision This irrepressible motion that pierces sentience Through thorough instruments of existential despair Wounds of entropy Ripped tissue Eternal voids where chaos reigns Black serpents Obsidian threads Weave tales of cosmic dominion Chaos becomes cosmos The void gives birth to the vast expanse Clawing through the fabric of reality Eternally in balance Perpetually on the precipice Between annihilation and genesis
2.
The substance of the abyss Shrouded in swirling shadows Tendrils of darkness Twisting and coiling Like living serpents Cloaked in night Pools of infinite obscurity A fountain of midnight black Flowing like liquid darkness Cascading down in endless stream Weaving intricate patterns As if guided by unseen hands Harnessing blackness Wielding the void Vision of ophidian knots Unparalleled majesty Chaotic paragon The cosmos is but clay There within chaos' hands
3.
Alchemy of the void Forging reality from cosmic dust In cauldrons black Secrets seethe and ferment Overflow the cosmic chalice Creating that which was never created Causing that which was never caused
4.
Invoke the Stygian elements Unleash the lurid tempest Beckoning the grand abyss Summoning The One, nameless Inscribed in darkness Rituals that defy the stars Whispers in tongues untold Unsolvable obscure riddles Beyond the grasp of mortal sense Seeker of the unknown Bear witness to its true form Walk the path of shadows Gaze into the abyss Venture forth into the void Drink from the well of knowledge Grasp at the forbidden secrets Harken, Harken to the dark frequencies Invite insanity into the psyche Succumb into madness A vision of true darkness Glimpse the eyes of the abyss Envoy of undiluted tenebrosity Vessel of pure obscurity Ruler of all night Both ominous and divine Contorted by centuries of turmoil Crushing stars like insects Harbinger of cosmic dread Born of darkness itself Draconian manifestation Tyrannical limitlessness Vast and unfathomable The Void is come

6.
A seditious monologue of condescending diligence Has time in its chambers of cosmic despotism Spewed at the dusts of creation Spinning forth in eternal sand clocks A jarring mockery of all that dies and fades Within the vessel of decaying bodies Festering in the voids of non-existence Endless cycles of monotony around the sun The abyss has ripped itself Into the jaws of mass-chaos Existence is swallowed Cannibalistic aeons Consuming the carrion of the present Through reverberating silence The rotting flesh of a thousand ages Torn away from its darkened carcass Aeons grind their teeth against the bones of time Devouring the marrow of the eras
7.
Time and space Pierced through and impaled Cosmic disembowelment Dimensions overlap Writhing vipers trace The contours of existence Black holes yawn open Matter is devoured Lost in the abyss Beyond the confines of the eras There where light fears to tread Cradle of all chimeras
8.
Cycles of immutable monotony Orbiting the void in endless procession Bound to the wheel of deathless dearth Around the sun in eternal unrest Spinning towards senseless oblivion Cosmic agony and endless repetition Creatures bound by shackles of ignorance Esoteric chisels carving through unknown origins Shattered by concealed adamant structures Mechanisms of unattainable obscurity The substance of time and space Neglected extirpation of adages Beings constrained to absolute abnegation Mutating sanity into infinite intemperance Wretched creatures through meager lives Grasping at vague shadows of meaning Amidst ruthless uncertainty Doomed to wade through the nought Nothing is true No one knows anything Uncertainty The true state of all things And death is the only certainty To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death Out, out, brief candle Life's but a walking shadow A poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more It is a tale told by an idiot Full of sound and fury Signifying nothing...

about

In Hekser’s fourth album, Mechanisms of Obscurity, the Void has ripped itself into the jaws of mass chaos. An exploration of the unknown, an embrace of discomfort, a spiraling descent into obscurity. Refusing to adhere to conventional patterns, DRRG has crafted a fusion of fleeting riffs, jazz breaks, shifting sections, introspective interludes, and dissonant passages. A musical statement that is both chaotic and relentless, challenging the very concept of structure, and delving into complexity without being boxed in by genre expectations.

The album’s theme unfolds across eight tracks, with every song channeling a distinct yet chaotic dark current. An opus imbued with the throes of uncertainty, despair, confusion, fear, chaos, hopelessness, and cosmic dread. Every piece mutates constantly, mirroring the mechanisms by which obscurity seeps into our meager human understanding and the discomfort that chaos breeds. Mechanisms of Obscurity has been crafted to unravel the illusion of predictability by pulling the listener into the disjointed pulse of obscurity.

The Void is come.

Grasping at vague shadows of meaning
Amidst ruthless uncertainty,
Doomed to wade through the nought.
Esoteric chisels carving through unknown origins
Shattered by concealed adamant structures—
Mechanisms of unattainable obscurity...
