The simplest topic to be enraged at and scared to death of. Power structures which more and more resemble the fascism of old and outgun the bleakest dystopian novels . Resist in your own way. Talk to people, let your voice be heard. Support those in need. Write letters. Punch Nazis. Make racists afraid. Fight for the equality of all the people oppressed.
lyrics
Asphyxiate
Cherish these tomes that will tell
The ways in which a path may be paced
Drag away and condemn to hell
All those that chose to stray
The fallacy of free will
Has lad thee to thoughts impure
The flesh shall suffer
We have our safety to ensure
THOU SHALT NOT
SHALL BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW
THOU SHALT NOT
OR SUFFER TRUTH IN RED AND CLAW
There's freedom from and freedom to
Understand the glory within the two
We’ve drawn the lines, traced the fields
Nothing safer than for you to yield
These crumbling walls are
Patchworks of precepts and prayer
The mind and the hand should be able
To peel and chip, rip apart every layer
But the chisel is blunt - the sword unwet
The fist unclenched - the freehold spent
THOU SHALT NOT
SHALL BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW
THOU SHALT NOT
OR SUFFER TRUTH IN RED AND CLAW
Melt ploughs to swords
Doubt to rage
Subservience to power
And burn the stage
Be afraid – Make them afraid
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
thanks Fluisteraars! I just love your music. A very good atmosphérique black metal band with experimental/ ambient passage. This album is literally one of my classics in my black metal journey.
The first time I heard this record, I feel scared and no other album make me feel that. Just, I feel like it's probably my favourite black metal album of all time. Continue in that way ! quentin_milcent
Mean, stylistic millennial post black/hc with a lot of anguish and compressed emotions inside. Virtuoso playing and desolate cold dry sonic aesthetics that'll slice your brains and leaves you stunned on the floor with bloodied ears. And such a banger artwork! 𝙅𝙤𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙡𝙡
The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 26, 2024
Guitars sound like flaming lava, riffs melting into one another while moving slowly across everything and destroying everything - the plaintive and bruised cries for help over it all add a weight that sinks you beneath the earth. The sound is as clear as the soul is dark. Jono Schneider
