Gazing At Medusa
Artist: Tourniquet
Label: Pathogenic Records
Released: 2018
Type: Full-Length
Rating: This album has not yet been rated.
Released in 2018, this is the band's tenth full-length studio album. The album was funded on kickstarter and it features 9 songs. It's heavy and progressive. The lyrics, some of the most personal to date, explore the universal themes of triumph and tragedy we struggle with in life.
The record talks about the Medusa of course, which represents the Deception that we are falling for in today's world. The Deception of the world will lead us to hell, and that's what the bible says:
Enemies disguise themselves with their lips, but in their hearts they harbor deceit. Though their speech is charming, do not believe them, for seven abominations fill their hearts. Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly. Proverbs 26:24-26
Two singles were released prior to the full album release, the title track and Sinister Scherzo.
