lyrics
Trapped in the dark
The impenetrable blackness
Cold as the cosmic void
The sunken city lies dead
Trapped for aeons unending
In ancient depths, unknown, unseen
In this cenotaph drenched in horror
The sunken city lies interred
They came for me at night
To feast on my tormented soul
Afflicted through torture and terror
This aching will never go away
Only fear is present here
And I know
There is no escape from this living nightmare
This misery never loosens its frightful grasp
There is but one solution to freedom devoid of pain
A final absolution through cessation
And now I die defeated
Set free by the flames
Smothered in poisonous asphyxiation
Ahead I see no light
But in this blackest night
All pain reaches its end
I awake, engulfed by fire
Inhaling the smog of the sulphurous flame
Climbing through ruinous devastation
To escape…
The weight of the world
Crushing down upon me
Shattering bones and being
This aching will never end
Trapped in the dark
The cosmic void
These unending depths
There is no escape
The weight of the world
In this burning entombment
There is no escape
This pain will never end
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
