Can anyone tell me what the fuck this is supposed to mean?:

Portal: THE SWEYY


Pendulant arc doth wax
Bow astern undulate hark
...steeping cusp


Autarchy maestro presiding
Misconduct's vintage rhythm
Drogue maw beguiled


Lapsing tidal sinergy pulpitates
Chartre otherwise
Idiosphere doyen composed


Anyone else come across incomprehensible gibberish like this?

:lol:
 
Sounds a bit like the poetry of Robert Burns. Of course, he was Scottish and died in 1796...

But aside from that, I think you'll find the above is about a ship caught in a storm at night with a huge wave bearing down on them and their sea-anchor deployed but not doing much.

:)
 
Portal: THE SWEYY
Portal: The really big wave

Pendulant arc doth wax
- It's a new moon
Bow astern undulate hark
- Walk to the back of the boat and take a gander
...steeping cusp
- Shit, that's a big wave!

Autarchy maestro presiding
- The captain is in charge
Misconduct's vintage rhythm
- Shit is happening, and how
Drogue maw beguiled
- And now the sea anchor is all screwed up.


Lapsing tidal sinergy pulpitates
- The wave is dying down
Chartre otherwise
- And know we're friggin' lost
Idiosphere doyen composed
- But at least everything's settled down a bit.
 
Thanks for your insight phloggy, now try this one:

PORTAL: WERSHIPS

Fogging stark crepuscules
Awash with squalid aghast
Course in spectic blight

Drones of inequity
Servile os manor's steer
Knell of antiquate tide

Subornament creeking carcasses
Stagger blackest harbours
Moored frothing profuse

Bow oh graving faces

:lol:

I'm not making this shit up!
 
Is that actually the spelling Gore? Some of those words would have more meaning if they were spelt differently.

But that one is about house-servants. Like butlers and maids and shit like that.

Are these songs? Can you post samples of them somewhere?
 
You think the lyrics are bad? Try watching them play live... sounds like 4 different bands all being played at the same time and the singer.... well the less said about him the better. This is how those lyrics sounds when he "sings" them

Grrrrrrrr grumble grrrrrrrr
cough aaaarrrrrrggggghhhhh mmmmmmmm
grrrrrr nrrrrrrrr drrrrrrrrr
 
I fucked up some of the spelling. "Spectic" is "septic" and "os" is obviously "of", but the rest is how it is spelt. You do NOT want to hear what these songs sound like. Believe me, you are better off. Portal was described to me as "technical death horror metal", but Todd's description is closer to the truth.

No I've heard alot of black metal and none of it comes anywhere near as badly as this!

What, as opposed to your band? HA! That is extemely rich coming from a Q-grade thrash outfit that has barely scratched the surface of musical boundaries.
I can well understand Portal's lyrics are very obscure. But to knock the music as you have done - especially on a live front is like throwing a stone in a glass house.
We should be lucky to have a band such as Portal being able to bring this insanity to us live - especially on the scale they have done. Says a lot more than your outfit Kerry King, ooh I mean Todd.
 
Sunken Portal suck in the finest terms. Their live act is more like a dead cat comming back to life. I would rather have my ear drums subjected to the screams from a psych ward 24hrs a day than that shit band for 5 mins.
You should think before you next go out on stage looking like a bunch of wankers and sounding even worse!
 
I seem to have stumbled into the pure soft metal ( it just aint heavy ) thread.
buy another tape sapians!

Maybe people should read the Vint-Age Compendium before they piss in the ocean!

Portal has been labelled Technical Horror Death Metal purely because thats the only description you can all comprehend; utter layman generic term...

Don't even imagine spinning the Sophomore!!! You will wither and beg for church, Everything will pale in comparison within the scale of reckoning.
Seepia & The Sweyy inclusive will become mere Elevator music.

Portal only manifest to align the IdeoSphere ( this is in your favour )

That's precisely what we are aiming to achieve. Ridding the room of people like yourself so that those who do understand and enjoy can do so.
Back to paddock with you!
