1.
Panopticon 02:16
A city that punishes: forging patterns of sociability. Chimeric prototype, a culture of control and social order. No one is safe from the vehement outlook. Austere premise - exclusive and normative. Dominative state is our condition. Systematic dissemination of disciplinary mechanisms: they observe and record the bodies controlled. The change is needed… No more reign. No more fear. No more threats. No more chains.
2.
Hegemony built on the soil irrigated with (our) blood.  Life organized under an authoritarian controller. We´re children of a land without memories. We´re fruits of a colonial heritage. We´re nothing to them. Systematic social segregation regulated by the market. Our silence is defeat.  Our sentence is resistance.
3.
Vital essence, sold and dedicated to an inherent and refined slavery.  Expropriation of their natural condition. Expropriation of their freedom. The mechanical culture centralizes and neutralizes the subject; sterile, he becomes a tool. We are submissive. We are sterile. We´ve become a tool. The worker proclaims: subordination and sacrifice.  The end of an era is approaching - the awakening demands blood. Mortification in progress: reduced to a mere commodity.
4.
Empire 02:25
The domination sets a clear limit: the production enforces every reaction. The domination sets a clear limit: there's no existence that isn´t mediated by the economy. The market optics standardizes and excludes - individual values exhausted. Cheated and fatigued, our value is measured by production. It´s time for change… Theater of illusions - There´s no life on a chain. There´s no life for us here.
5.
Unbowed 03:15
Inequality sown in fields of bloodshed and plunder. This is the end… Born under the bitter yoke and marked with their history. This is the end of our freedom. We´re heirs of a secular exploitation: cut off from our social and natural condition. From bloody hands justice will be done. Our time has come – Reform is needed. Subjugated by the State, by the legal principle that land ownership is individual property. Born to bleed. Born to fight. Born to persevere. The exclusion is an integral part of the capital.
6.
7.
Consumed by an authoritarian corporate culture. The maintenance of "Justice" is made on laws and blood. How deep we´ll fall? How much blood has yet to be shed? How far will we go? We´ll be side by side until the last body falls. We´ll be side by side until the up rise comes through storm. The principle of authority is the denial of our freedom. Ostensibly oppressive force seated on those who should be protected. Together we are one! Through barbarism we´ll be reborn.
8.
Mischievous profit under the blood that will never be enough. Prescriptive lies under the false promise of cure. Lie to us. Day by day making dreams bleed. Profitable guinea pigs in a society transmuted. Life that pays itself in a corrosive debt. Generations buried deep on the hope of a new tomorrow. Submerged in manufactured fictions. Diluted in manufactured threats.
9.
History bleeds false promises. Slave policy, which manipulates and disseminates boundaries between people. Monuments and idols feed on innocents. Colonized, enslaved and forgotten. Colonized, enslaved and abandoned. No more. We are spoils of a fateful invention called: Nation. They keep the fear on the logic of difference. They keep the fear that suffocates us. Segregation practices fomenting hatred. Dissemination of extreme policies raises fire and war.
10.
Freedom resigned by a distorted reality. Savage inequalities emerge. Submerged voices in a profit-driven economy. Hypotrophy by an educational system that standardizes; which creates uncritical citizens. The false democracy suffocates and condemns: objectified, training is done on the margins of life.

about

Formada em 2013 e com o EP "Uncritical Receiver" na bagagem, a banda de hardcore Institution lançou, neste ano, o álbum de estreia "Desolation Times”. Com o videoclipe do single “Panopticon", altamente divulgado, a banda paulistana atingiu um público novo e o resultado acabou sendo muito maior do que o esperado. "Desolation Times”, passou pelos estúdios El Rocha e Toth Studio em São Paulo, e a mixagem ficou por conta do americano Taylor Young, que já trabalhou com bandas como: Harm's Way, Rotting Out e Twitching Tongues.

O título do novo trabalho representa o sentimento da banda e "é uma referência as vicissitudes do tempo em que vivemos. É como se vivêssemos sempre à beira de um colapso social e cultural”, explica o vocalista Hélio.

Institution São Paulo, Brazil

Seja na atitude ou na sonoridade, no Institution o hardcore e o metal sempre caminharam lado a lado.

A mudança na língua foi decisiva e agora a banda se prepara para lançar o segundo álbum, "Ruptura do Visível". ... more
