When the withered leaves wander in a cold autumn wind
A pale dawn rises from the womb of the earth
Whispers of the dead disturb silent waters
And drown in a thick cloak of darkness
Only the sorrow shall now reign
In these days forlorn of hope
When the life and joy dwindles
Only the dead may be comforted
Wrapped in the pitch black soil
In cold arms of death
Awaiting an inevitable stroke of melancholy
Profound as an eternal spiritual void
Vague, cold and relentless
Now she finally reaps our lust for life
Only the hatred shall now thrive
Stretching across the earth
Like wild dark pines
Behold it merciless breath
Unyielding and inescapable
Rejoice in the misery of life
Winds out of the living world pass through
A lamentation from the depths of the earth cease
Now a new bitter path is revealed
A secret passage to the frozen nothingness

Mortal Kind

There they are, the wolves of prey
Emanations of the darkest nights
Sleepless dwellers of accursed lands
Unknown for ages to the mortal kind
With grief in eyes and shrouded in gloom
They walked the path of vengeance
Undisturbed for ages by none but gods
Now men might hear their chants
And so they wander cloaked in black
Through haunted fields and forest dark
Whispering a tale so ancient and grim
Of hatred that will forever last
The twilight now heralds their coming
A darkness fell and gone is the light
A sea of souls was summoned
Lured by the nameless kin
Never they have lived
Thus never finding death
There they are, the wolves of prey
Hear their laments in the night

Frozen Majesty
06:31
|
|||
|
Past decades are calling persistently
Evoking contemplations of mortal agony
A final march through this cold existence
Leading me towards the frozen majesty
Away from suffering
Still bound to fear
Now I walk blind through human vanity
And my heart is shrinking
I devour the light of blazing stars
To feed the infinite longing
Shadows are reflecting my spiritual nature
But when they drown in night's obscurity
No reflection is revealed
So I drown in darkness myself
Through suffering born
And chased by it grasp
No longer do I see
This frozen majesty
Chill is enshrouding my heart
No life remains to resist
Only pure resignation left
Transcending has begun

A dream of rising in a forgotten past
Where vanity reigns over spectral land
The eternal flames beckon with grace
In the cosmic depths, the void they embrace
Evoking the illumination now eternally
In the splendor we drift towards the end
Through the vastness of our contemplation
Lured by a perennial nostalgia
A return to the realm that we have lost
To where the silence turns into a deaf eternity
Whispers suddenly cry our old names
Awakening the solitary memories of an endless dream
Forever wandering silently with steady pace
Until consciousness inevitable cessation
Thus we die, revealing the unknown
But the eternal dream shall not fade

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!!

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE
supported by 19 fans who also own “The Path of No Return”
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs...
