Hastur, The King in Yellow

So yeah, I guess you can say I'm hookin' y'all up with shit that's EXTREMELY raw with this offering and my previous one, "The Necronomicans."

For all I know, the album could be entirely scrapped...but we gotta cut our demo first, y'now? 'S just gonna take a little bit of money and time.

Anyway, I don't wanna ruin the plot for anyone but Hastur plays deeply in the album storyline, especially his manipulations of "Lady Cthulu."

You heard me. I still have to finish the song "Lady Cthulu Has A Wonderful Rack," and when I get it done y'all will be the first to check it, yah?

Anyway, "Hastur, The King in Yellow."

He comes...


Oh hear me now
Sons and Daughters
Of alien divine
These words whispered
Fractured softly

Oh hear 'bout how
Sons and Daughters
of alien devised
Of a plan hatched
by the Worm King himself

Can't you feel the slithering silence
Can't you hear the barking moans?
Can you see the glittering darkness
Can you taste the coming madness...

ON HIS BROKEN THRONE
CARVED OF GLITTERING BONE
SHATTERED AND SHAKING
ALONE
LAYS THE PLANS
OF HASTUR
THE KING IN YELLOW

THE MASTER

ON HIS BROKEN TOMB
FORMED OF A CREEPING DOOM
SHATTERED AND BROKEN
ALONE
WORKS AND SCHEMES
OH HASTUR
KING IN YELLOW

THE MASTER

BEHOLD HIS PLANS UNFURLED

(bridge)

Oh come now see
What forbidden fruit
He has laid out
Just for you
Enchanting softly

Oh see now how
Just taste for yourself
This glittering pasture
Just for you
Encroaching darkly

Can't you feel the slithering silence
Can't you hear the barking moans?
Can you see the glittering darkness
Can you taste the coming madness...

ON HIS BROKEN THRONE
CARVED OF GLITTERING BONE
SHATTERED AND SHAKING
ALONE
WATCHING THE PAWNS
OF HASTUR
THE KING IN YELLOW

THE MASTER

ON HIS BROKEN TOMB
FORMED OF A SLITHERING DOOM
SHATTERED AND BROKEN
ALONE
PAY HIM TRIBUTE
OH HASTUR
KING IN YELLOW

THE MASTER

HE CLAIMS YOUR WORLD
