Decohesion I 04:45
lyrics

Infinite growth paradigm Failure is human kind if we Don't open up our eyes The minds of men are only limitless and still it seams We've lost the thought of our affects within reality Only growing further into Our own insanity The power of allusion only Grows if you believe In fear they wait for the Populous to over see And over turn their allusion Into clarity Only moving forward To forever succeed and achieve On their way to monopolize everything living We live empty only growing in the deficit Binding to our fears turning our heads to the reality Human kind will fail if we choose to never change our ways We will continue to suffer Dying by the hand that feeds Those who choose to seek wealth and power in their way of life Only wish to fool us all Into their paradigm The fool is you The fool is I We are all fucked if we don't realize Exponential growth Infinite paradigm We live in an infinite growth paradigm We have the choice to leave and still we choose to live these lives Decohesion

Decohesion II 04:19
lyrics

Awake We wonder why Nothing changes We are always dreaming We must stand against ourselves to save humanity We stand in empty bodies Waiting to exceed this life Blindly chasing in circles that Right before your eyes We must lead ourselves to step out of our ways We must stand against ourselves To save humanity We stand in empty bodies Waiting to exceed this life We live empty Unchained we must lead ourselves to step out of our ways We must stand against ourselves To save humanity

Greed 03:08
lyrics

Erase our ways ascend from Our mortality As one we Rot alone we find Open your eyes to the criminals Leaching on your mind Who live only in your mind Through epidemics Of intellect and rationality Whose mind was set long Before you began Whose case is closed Since the day your mind was programmed to believe Do as your told But do not stand do not object Find only faith in belief But than command a life of hell Inside eternity Your beliefs are becoming a joke to me disgusted by the means That wreck our life's And suspend any possibility For there are consequences you and I will face Onward we walk our Eyes fixed upon our feet As one we Rot alone we find Our clearity The possibilities exceed the certainty in mind Now only time prevents our rise Only now have we even begun To see And realize the possibilities Exceed the certainty in mind Only time prevents our rise Your beliefs are becoming a joke To me Your becoming a joke to me

Means To An End 03:17
lyrics
buy track
Means to an end Stand in empty footsteps Puppets To identity Afraid to realize We orchestrate our living misery These are our means to an end I see through you And it burdens me The price of understanding Is the image of the self Sought truthfully The truth can only Reveal Its self in time And I'm afraid I've seen yours And through it I have chosen Mine I have seen your truth For I live in the constant mystery No strings attached to my beliefs For anything is possible And though you chose not to see Your attachment is your means to an end Lost in our means to an end

about

Hailing from various parts of the Salt Lake Valley, Alumni forges an aggressive path towards the depths of metal. Combining sounds and influences from every era of brutality and creating a form all its own, this six member effort puts forth nothing but the most maddening, fetid, unearthing expressions that merge fists with faces. Coming together as a group of close friends with shared interests and varying histories in the Salt Lake music scene, Ben Winder, Ron Garcia, Justin Harris, Nic Mortensen, Evan Pilgrim, and Tom Morse formed from the remnants of their previous projects and melded together to bring what they thought was missing from this world of false realities and disillusioned perceptions.

With many bands flourishing and building a solid group of devoted fans willing to give anything to be at every show, and to swing and shove their way to the center of the floor and show their love. Alumni is counting on giving everything for the ones who see what it's all about, working hard, being heard, and knowing you have the power to impact this world however you wish.
