lyrics

Struck by the agonizing cries
When the gloom reaches the skies
A world that decays
Before the horrifying race

As obscurity comes alive
The light starts to deprive
Suffocated by a subdued voice
Before the black empire you’ll rejoice

This calling is tempting
Reaches deep into my bones
Even though I obey these bonds
With the echoing monstrosities

The pillars are ascending
Obscuring structures of the old ones
While minions of dark are advancing
Ensuring everlasting pain

A shadow of intent
With no glimpse of repent
Controlled everlasting chaos
Where the living will never obey us

Succumb to the deepest void
Awaken beneath the soil
As shadows comes alive
It’s time for your demise

This calling is tempting
Reaches deep into my bones
Even though if i obey these bonds
With the echoing monstrosities

The pillars are ascending
Obscuring structures of the old ones
While minions of dark are advancing
Ensuring everlasting pain
The madness descending
Clouding judgement of their feeble minds
The mist closing in, neverending
Nameless shadows arising

Breakdown:
Tala: Whispers from the depths. It sings of unspeakable horrors.
You will be the first of many to glimpse the madness.

There is no light after death
A place where shadows fear to go.
In the writhing shadow of the gods
All light fades and dies, dies.

Tearing minds into pieces
Frail bodies wither and dies
Is this real, or an illusion?
You’re going mad, mad aaaaa

Bridge:
This calling is tempting
Reaches deep into my bones
Even though if i obey these bonds
With the echoing monstrosities

Refräng+del 2:
The pillars are ascending
Obscuring structures of the old ones
While minions of dark are advancing
Ensuring everlasting pain
The madness descending
Clouding judgement of their feeble minds
The mist closing in, neverending
Nameless shadows arising

Before the black empire you’ll rejoice!!

Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be. sachavonkarl74
