lyrics

The choking dust
of bridges torn and scourged

The screaming code
searing the skin and the eye

Twining and slithering
through the rites of the Demiurge,
obscuring and dousing the Light,
it ascends 'bove the waves and the fractals,
the walls of the enclosing tomb –

descending thus back to the womb

And pyres consumed all the ashes
as Sekhmet purred
Under the sway of the coiling Sun
her cheeks and temples burned

In the midst of this turmoil
of axes
and hexes,
syncopes – bubbling tar

Yet the waters shall rise
and devour the goat
with the lamb
and the sizzling scars

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
