lyrics
Under mooncast shadows and shining stars
… we do not sleep
Now before the heaving vastness of unbroken blue
… I might find eternal sleep
And with these words, I surrender
And bid you farewell
In these tumbling waters unending
Our hardships end at last
And with these wails of lament
A mournful song for our suffering
The losses we endured for so long
In endless agonizing pain
And with these cries of grief
I’m overcome with regret
Unbearable, overwhelming
Take me from this hopeless, barren place
And through this final departure
I leave this mortal shell
No longer in struggle, no further in doubt
An awakening to peaceful death
And with these final tears
My torment has ended
I embrace my final journey
Towards the stars
In the twilight despair is all around us
… there is no peace
Under mooncast shadows and shining stars
… we do not sleep
I long for this life to end here
… one final release
Now before the heaving vastness of blue
… I might find eternal sleep
The cover painting (Udslidt by H A Brendekilde, if anyone is interested) and the music is in perfect alignment. So much sorrow, so much despair... Right from the start I can feel my soul wither away with each riff. Still, towards the end of the record I can catch little glimpses of hope in the melodies. A beautiful journey in the bleak reality of existence. vilmosomedve
Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
Another scorcher from the phenomenal one-man black metal outfit STARER, with mind-flaying riffs and eerie tremolo-picked melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 31, 2023
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
