From above they came towards
This heavenly body of ours
Wretched beings with many eyes
To see and dispose of us all
But our deaths shall not be fast
For they feast on the sorrow of souls
Slowly they will madden us
And have us all end it ourselves
With descension almost complete
Every soul has now started to rot
In ecstatic gluttony
Shrieks of joy do fill up the skies
And as the earth is turnt into a hell
Only one answer remains to tell
The reason God has left us to be felled
The reason no one could ever be saved
With cosmic terror
They came to us
To erase, exterminate the human race
Filling up with madness
Coughing blood out of fear
Slowly we are fading out
Forever left wondering why
Why
With cosmic terror
They came to us
To erase, exterminate the human race
Filling up with madness
Coughing blood out of fear
Slowly we are fading out
Forever left wondering why they came
With cosmic terror
They came to us
With cosmic terror
They came to us
With cosmic terror
They came to us
With cosmic terror
They came to us
Only to relieve a morbid lust

As the sun turns into darkness
The moon turns crimson red
The end
Has arrived
Just like the prophecy
Foretold in ancient tomes
Day of reckoning
Day of armaggedon
Underneath a crimson moon
Underneath a crimson
Image of God descends
As all the dead are raised
Judgement passed ruthlessly
Eternal life at stake
Whatever be thou fate?
Hammer of justice smashes down
Underneath a crimson moon
Underneath a crimson moon
All hail the crimson moon
Symbol of cessation brought to life
All hail the darkened sun
For cimmerian is the day of the Lord
Underneath a crimson moon
Underneath a crimson moon
Underneath a crimson moon
Underneath a crimson moon

A Debt Paid in Blood
04:03

Losing Battle
Death coming from every side
All shall perish
If the tide won’t turn
Suddenly
A voice like flame is heard within
Cut his throat to conquer all
A victory
Whats the price
You’ll pay to win?
Sacrifice
Grant me all his blood
Cut his throat to save them all
This debt will
Be paid in
The blood of your first born son
As I bring downward the axe
I cast my eyes away
From the horror
Painted clearly on his face
Forever wondering
Why
This debt will
Be paid in
The blood of your first born son
This debt will
Be paid in
The blood of your first born son

Death Submerged in Life
05:30
|
|||

Deep within the self
Buried beneath reason
Lies a dark, twisted desire
Whispering agonizing truth
Screaming at the futility of it all
Begging me to end it
Begging me to take the plunge
And so I tread the water
Hoping never to return
Let me be frozen and still
To be dead whilst submerged in life
All my life ive been searching
For any answer at all
But all I ever seem to find
Is mindless contradiction
With only this I could live on
Create my own meaning and purpose
But the sea has been calling for so long
Begging me to give her everything
And so I tread the water
Hoping never to return
Let me be frozen and still
To be dead whilst submerged in life
And so I tread the water
Hoping never to return
Let me be frozen and still
To be dead whilst submerged in life
The irony of fate
To be felled by
To be drowned in
The essence of all that can live
Water, fills my lungs
Relief, fills my heart
Water, fills my lungs
Relief, fills my heart
Forever
And ever
And ever
And ever
And ever

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.

A Diabolic Thirst

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.

Exquisite harmonies resonate profoundly! Such a resounding melody, finely woven. The shadows intricately entwine with the mellifluous riffs, crafting a sublime symphony of darkness and bliss.
