A lonesome soul wanders through the night upon an oaken path
Pictures embrace its absent mind as the sea enmeshes an isle
as lone as the guide that leads its way and never reaches the day.
In the midst of cold caress it can bask in enlightened darkness.
Embedded into flowing shades it feels
a glowing spark that never fades.
Bare luminescence inside.
An absence of air that deadens the fire.
At times surrounded by light
There's no way to suspire.
Condemned by a metaphor that merged in the past.
The light that awakens ever will last.
Thetic, mere a pinnacle this conception lost truth
for a lonesome soul that slenders through the night.
Lift the mind and grasp the gentle breath of the rainfall.
Seek the winds that will free the body from dead weight and shift the burden...
...away.
Give in to a
deep savor of life
and fade away.
Dive into the air and enter the night with one's eyes open.
Listen to the voice that whispers echoic to disperse all hold...
...away.
Give in to a
deep Savor of life
and fade away.
A part of nature is disavowed.
A subtle call not heared alloud.
A depth uncharted in narrow sight
That can be felt not be described.
Nightfall will enforce the enigma.
Delphic sway coheres with the fall of the sun.
And debarred from the night,
the lone breeze,
I stand Moonlit.
I see the moonlight
through the pane broken.
A fractured sphere.
A glance to keep.
I feel the pale night,
hear it whisper
of serene beauty that for
I gently weep.
As if the moon had
through my soul spoken,
it felt so mere,
A murmur deep.
And with a faint dread
I might forget what
awakened within me
I fall asleep.
Another seamless blend of extreme genres from Stortregn. Killer riffs, tasty basslines, and lots of fun tech influences in the composition and instrumentation make this an absolute banger front to back. Facepalming Panda
Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan
