1.	Oväld 00:36	lyrics	buy track
Med plånboken fylld ifrån båda håll så svårt att hålla dig till er paroll Pengar i fickan ni blundar en stund Ni leder vårt samhälle till dess avgrund Mutad Ingen oväld kvar Okontrollerbar Ohållbar Fan Du är köpt.
2.	Blodfors 01:21	lyrics	buy track
Dö Jag är dött kött utan känsla kvar I en kropp byggd utav skam och hat Jag förgör / Det har börjat dra mig under Förgör / Känner du vikten? Låt det forsa blod Slå ditt hjärta kallt Tvingas växa in i masken jag bär Förgör / Det har börjat dra mig under Förgör / Bryt mig fri Låt det forsa blod Slå ditt hjärta iskallt Branden slukar allt Vem överlever när denna eld bryter ut När cirkeln förevigt sluts.
3.	Sacrament 02:01	lyrics	buy track
Beloved precious rites Sacred cherished lie To be saved of guilt from something greater Can one believe this is still believed in? Baptized, burn the blood Turn and veil the sanctum in sinful flood Tunnel circled thought Desire choked in knots To be saved of guilt from something greater Can one believe this is still believed in? When all your hope was abandoned This was the path that you abide Confess Accomplished only in your own mind You are full of fire burned out and blind Faith has turned into your swords To prove true a book of myth and words Liar. Traitor. Killer. You have earned your name Death cheater Chaos justified, to paradise What is a life but a sacrifice? Of all in us we bless None will be holy.
4.	Ophiuchus 02:44	lyrics	buy track
Split tongue black lung Two-faced faked grace Venom welcomed Gold scaled bloody nails No hope. No love. Eyes bleached trust leeched Rough hands commands No love. No light. No light. No heart. Raise them condemned No view left through No heart. No hope. Love has grown for those sidewinding for control Vices Blood and tears turned to fat. Growing thick Vices You have been giving us sweet lies We accepted in our dimmed eyes Now we face a hunger that is without an end Slowly creep you rattle forward Shed your skin, eat the weak. Let your color run onward Shed your skin, eat the weak. Love has grown// This we applaud Us pleading to a fraud Now we have grown a hunger that is without an end Slowly creep// Control Why do we heed by snakes teach? How can we love when snakes preach? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Additional vocals by Samuel Skoog of TINAGOWTFAY&KRÅKSTAD)
5.	Ideals 01:44	lyrics	buy track
Immune to an inner sight Your face is not your own Patience what they have teached you To keep you complacent This way you will be under the hand that feeds you Coward Your name a shame Your fingers crossed The blame is placed. Precious nothing Ideals We mistake for beauty The bearer of principles without value stands exalted and adored The tongue speak words it cannot accept as truth Bleach your sight and now rest.
6.	Meaning 02:49	lyrics	buy track
Rest in the ignorance Feel it at the back of your teeth The palate of blood thirst Skin against grinded fangs The clash of bone and sinew Preying upon weakness Progress through the strength of your bite Wolf jaw Accepting preconceptions Accepting preconception The vice was your own desire Promised and believed to be fulfilled Projected and teached solemn worship Insecurity formed the path The road is run Carved deep Locked in abyss No ability to look back In a false sense of loyalty These eyes fixed and vacant Desperately seeking meaning Varggom Bleed the beast Skin against teeth Varggom.
7.	Nothing 03:52	lyrics	buy track
This world is dead Interweaved in guilt From these hands this snake was born Interlaced by the blood spill This serpent is the end of us It breathes Conscience long lost A gypsum bust falling apart Interlaced by the bloodshed This serpent is the end Construct No reverse War is always war. Never proud Greed is always greed. Never proud The plants and weeds rot as they erupt From the sockets that once had my eyes Now the snake breathes out Death. War. Religion. Blood. Bloom. Money. Bronze. Smoke. A gypsum bust falling apart The instincts is just an empty bowl Ideal means nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Additional vocals by Jon Ekström of DÖDSVARG)
8.	Fix 01:12	lyrics	buy track
Fighting for the next kick Fighting for those who are making the rules Those afraid of change get used as tools Meaningless killings for a meaningless war This war must end and the prohibiton laws The system has failed It is time for a change Stop all this madness It is all deranged Struggling for a fix quick Twenty-five years for a pocket of ace No wonder the prisons run out of space Meaningless killings for a meaningless cause This war must end with the prohibition laws. Look around you, what do you see? This system does not seem right to me People dying in vain everyday No vision forward Just a replay Why can't we see the way out of this same decay? No way out
9.	Worthless 00:27	lyrics	buy track
Just another piece in the game It does not matter It is all the same There is nothing you can do No future is coming for you Wasted. Worthless. No matter how hard you try You can never survive Wasted. Worthless. Nothing is ever the way that it seems Noone will ever hear your screams.
10.	Tomma Ord 00:28	lyrics	buy track
Trycker ner andra för din egen skull Vägen till framgång är smutsig och blodfull Du klättrar uppför stegen ditt skamlösa luder* ---------- - "Du ska aldrig sticka ut" Maktbehov Tomma ord. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Additional vocals by Johan Norsebäck of MASSGRAV. *First verse written by Johan Norsebäck.)
11.	Kyriarki 01:48	lyrics	buy track
Du tittar på oss som om vi vore smuts (som om) vi vore ingenting alls Men alltid har sin tid och vår tid är nu Bladet är mot din hals Vi ska resa oss Revolt Vår tid är nu Död åt normer Trampad och sparkad förnedrad och strypt Det rör oss inte ett dugg Allting du gör, gör oss starkare Förbered dig på vårt mothugg Vi ska resa oss Revolt Vår tid är nu Död åt normer Vi river ner kyriarkens ideal att bära. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Additional vocals by xBimx of AVVIKA)
12.	Disillusion 01:28	lyrics	buy track
Twenty-four hours of feeding the brain with total bullshit just trying to drain the public from thinking on its own while the leaders idly sit on their throne Democracy, freedom and peace Just an illusion they are trying to sell We are the ones harassed by police The ones living the hell No real choices Only predetermined death Nothing gained Just one day shorter of breath Oppression will come to an end We will rise from the ashes Rebuild what you have done The revolution has only begun The days are numbered Your ways are doomed Forever buried your ideas entombed We will not be silenced We will not give in After all the blood we have bled In the end we will win No more pain No more lies It was all in vain It is time for demise
13.	Entombed 02:14	lyrics	buy track
Living way over your assets Spending money on meaningless things Trying to hide your true self Happiness money can buy What have become of your life? Nothing else left to enjoy You need to have it all To cope with your meaningless life No plan or even a clue what it is all about Your life is passing by your eyes Wasting time, but there is no doubt That everything living finally dies Your existence a waste of life Your presence a plague Break free from the chains of lies Nothing left for you Break free from the chains of life Nothing left to do You did not care to listen Or even give a thought That your own freedom is already bought Wasting time but there is no doubt That everything living finally dies Your possessions made you blind to see The true tokens of reality Break free from the chains of lies Nothing left for you Break free from the chains of life Nothing left for you ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Additional vocals by Sean Whittaker of HELIOSCOPE, HIGH HOPES)
14.	Eyes Bleached 06:03	lyrics	buy track
Building your walls up to indulge, destroy Primitive overhead Cold as stone In a brief moment divulge By clarity sight unfurls Freedom cannot live while their world is kept flat Now from the rust that is your tongue Speak You ridiculed the own thought Following stream uniformed Preciously wasted in absence of warmth Clutches Your silence has shown nothing but weakness You are stuck Scrutinised appearance Nothing growing in the right direction By what hammer, what chain Dare face the blame? Dare seize the shame? We are at each others throats for this Locked up in tunnel vision We are chasing time like sand Slipping away barricaded in hate Misstepping in fearing the unknown Between structures and past where dim hearts will grow Caved in Fewer to see.

about

Reviews of 'Maktbehov':

"An asteroid crash of an album that renders most of its competition extinct. Hatred, loathing, misery, morbidity, and an apocalyptic impatience to get to the fucking finish already: This one’s got it." - Pitchfork.com

"With classic Swedish production standards, God Mother will remind you of bands like Converge, Rotten Sound, Skitsystem and many others under the "take no prisoners" brand of hardcore-influenced metal." - Loudwire.com

"This is an excellent soundtrack to moshing around your living room while still appreciating that the music is written well enough to be dissected and learned by any guitarist. Did God Mother just drop an album for smart hardcore fans?" - MetalInjection.net

"29 minutes of pure Swedish aggression. The perfect album if you ever thought APMD and Some Girls could stand to get together in the studio, or if you like the brutality of The Dillinger Escape Plan but you’re sick of them being so progressive. The kind of album that would get a pit going in the aisle on the Monday morning bus and easily one of 2015’s best." - BluntMag.com.au

"With such a furious and chaotic debut album, this is a band that can easily be on the tongues of generations years later." - IDIOTEQ.com

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
