lyrics
Und wieder hebe ich den Blick hinauf zu deinen Kronen
Hinauf zu deinen Wipfeln, die in den Stürmen thronen
Gen Wind und Wetter
Du lädst mich ein wenn ich fliehe von der Menschen Dekadenz
Ein Hort fernab von ihren Taten, wo Stille mich empfängt
Demut füllt meine Gedanken und so neige ich mein Haupt
Vor dem Heer der stummen Wächter, dem Bollwerk der Natur
Phalanx des Dickichts
Ach was weißt du von all dem Leid
Von all dem Elend unserer Zeit
Wacht des Waldes - In Einsamkeit
Pflicht erfüllend stehst du bereit
In Ewigkeit
Auch wenn sie deinen Frieden brechen zum Zwecke ihrer Gier
Wird deine Wacht dennoch nicht enden, du bleibst immer hier
Du wirst auch jene überleben, die sich selbst den Atem nehmen
Im Antlitz der Hektoden sei mein Loblied dir gewiss
So hebe Deinen Blick - Er lädt Dich ein wenn Du fliehst
Hinauf zu seinen Kronen - Von der Menschen Dekadenz
Hinauf zu seinen Wipfeln - Ein Hort fernab von ihren Taten
Die in den Stürmen thronen - Wo Stille Dich empfängt

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.

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

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
The project of singer and multi-instrumentalist Marz Rieste explores dark fantasy themes through menacing, doomy black metal.

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
