lyrics

Grove burner.
He who rapes the world.
World splitter,
who claims mastery over nature
in such vain condescension.

Bleed in the mire of your own hubris.
Those who you control want blood.
Even the earth itself
conspires to overthrow you

May you freeze beneath the sun you eclipsed.
May you choke on the soil you unearthed.
May the contextless violence of the cosmos
decimate your delusions of power…
He who rapes the world!

Enslaver of the weak.
Defiler of the strong.
He who bleeds forever,
You will be buried beneath the bones
you have torn from the flesh.

May no voice speak your name!
May you rot beneath the ruins of your empires.
They won't protect you,
he who bleeds forever.

You face a beast...
with many heads...
and one voice...

In the name of the great spectre...
With the breath of every world...
In the tongues of a thousand languages
vanished by your hand,
I cast you down!

From the mouths of millions does my anger come.
I speak with the voice of a thousand forgotten aeons.
With the ageless rage of the silenced,
I cast you down!

I am the face in the fire that haunts you.
I am the serpent crawling down your throat.
I am the voice of the burned. Beware!
When fire spreads…
Ashes rise…

I cast you down!
With the ageless rage of the silenced,
I cast you down!

I listen to a lot of depressive and dark music, and I have to say this album hits hard. Very hard... kowaikage2

I'm not into black metal. But i dig this. Fantastic lyrics, an interesting cover, real good musicians. Their music rather proves that the band has a certain talent for songwriting - but without ever being fenced in by traditional, "classic" forms. outstanding RATMAN

If “atmospheric black metal” implies majestic comedowns and dramatic dynamics, this powerhouse instead constitutes anti-atmospheric black metal. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 23, 2021
