KHANATE are Alan Dubin (OLD, Gnaw), Stephen O’Malley (Sunn O))), KTL), James Plotkin (OLD, Scorn, Phantomsmasher) and Tim Wyskida (Blind Idiot God, Jodis).
Fifteen years ago this imposing entity dimmed the lights. Now it turns out those muted years were but a foreboding prelude to an abrupt awakening — the era of TO BE CRUEL. Three songs newly shining light on distinct, destitute, clinging terrors. Khanate’s slow dimensions have been amplified horrifically. Personal grievances have become generational vendettas.

“Like A Poisoned Dog” Full Lyrics:
I feel dead
take a swim in gasoline
throw a match, might as well
cremate my vision of you
like a poisoned dog
not playing dead
it's dead
oh no, that's the feeling
I feel dead
how can they do this to me?
always in my periphery
you're the reason
all of you
my eyes stab you to no avail
hands on your throat
but only in my head
you're the reason, you
I feel dead
now you're boiling like my blood
let's all die
lets die
lets all
the horror of a smile, a glance or a voice
throw that match
I beg you
might as well
what if I looked inside?
what would I see?
your thoughts, your heart or your dreams?
the blood, will it be clean when I drink?
will it purify me?
you're the reason, you
I feel dead
