Neurosis...the Oakland deathcore band

Neurosis is like if Nurse With Wound was a metal band with a musical style something like Sleep and Tool and with something about the vocals that puts me in mind of Slayer. I don't have Enemy of the Sun, but. Given to the Rising I have. This album, its got a feeling of being genuinely inspired by some haunting mental illness. They're grasping at something that feels real, but its also a thing that's imagined, because its the product of a damaged mind. There's this theme in the lyrics of an obsession with the sun as some type of ... source of mental illness, like a moth to a flame sort of thing. The sun is this fixation, a source of mental illness. I understand this concept , its not really the sun. I know this from ketamine addiction. To be fixated with some source of awesome mystical potency and depth to the point that it becomes a sickness. Like, like the book of sand Jorge Luis Borges writes about. You can't look away from the face of god as its feeding your mind, its sloughing your flesh from your bones and deranging your sense of reality. " Enslaved by its luster " " Inscribe your fears in the sun "
