lyrics

West of Arkham,
The hills rise wild
Amidst old ruins
The shadows always lurk,

The glint of the sunlight
The wide chimneys crumbling
The desolation sprawled grey, a fine grey dust
There’s silence in the dim alleys between
And the floor is soft with moss and decay.

Relief, from that great wound that grips my mind
They unwrap, under grim woods, black roots - shallow mud tombs
Relief, from that black maw, that yawns inside
The doom in coloured shadows

His husky voice sank low,
His body leaned forward and cracked Engulf in water now
A deluge of sorrows
A bitter message from the stars
From beyond time to dust

The dark westward tangle
Where the woods turn grey
A yawning black maw
And the acrid strain of death

Relief was all that he shewed
Relief from the dark of the yawning black maw
Better under water now
Better under water since the strange days.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

Feel the rain on your skin. No one else can feel it for you. Only you can let it in. No one else, no one else. A magical 2023 black metal journey all fans should experience. JT EXTREME
