lyrics
Commendatio animæ – Proficiscere anima christiana
Commendatio morientium – Subvenite sancti Dei
So sprecht ihn selig - So sprecht euch frei
In nomine Dei qui te creavit - In nomine Iesu Christi qui pro te passus est
Requiescat in pace - In saecula saeculorum
So sprecht ihn selig - So sprecht euch frei - So gebt euch heilig
Erlösung und Vergebung wird niemandem zuteil
Wenn der letzte Zug des Atems deinen Leib verlässt
Und dein Auge sich im Antlitz deines Endes schließt
Wenn du mit letztem Blick der Erkenntnis fündig wirst
Dass du niemals einem Schöpfer gegenüber trittst
Dass du von Anfang an mit Angst und Schuld geblendet wurdest
Dass du seit Anbeginn zu ihrem Dienst erzogen wurdest
Um schon früh genug das Haupt zu senken
Um nicht zu lernen selbständig zu denken
Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine - Et lux perpetua luceat ei
In paradisum deducant te angeli - In tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres
Wenn der letzte Zug des Atems deinen Leib verlässt
Und dein Auge sich im Antlitz deines Endes schließt
Wenn du mit letztem Blick der Erkenntnis fündig wirst
Dass du niemals einem Schöpfer gegenüber trittst
Dass du von Anfang an mit Angst und Schuld geblendet wurdest
Dass du seit Anbeginn zu ihrem Dienst erzogen wurdest
Lass dich nicht von Patriarchen lenken
Erwecke und entfache dein selbständiges Denken

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.

A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken

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!! sachavonkarl74

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. sachavonkarl74
