lyrics
A long procession of northlanders
Conducts us in this feral void
They came along a golden path
Jaws of ravines to avoid
Half-eyed wit make us worthy
To sail the foams of the grey seas
Our life is an endless journey
Driven by tempest and fresh breeze
We may never settle down
But know that there’s a distant home
Although the sea-line’s been monochrome
Our progenies we’ll never know
Leave no trace in the crunching snow
Cast no shadows in the afterglow
Rise new sun
For the old world
See your sons
Roaming confirmed
Set forth seventh sons
Sever the old roots
Speak arcane tongues
Reach for the new fruits
A dawn of a new day
Shine on your faces
Demolish the old way
Bear the torch for ages
We may never settle down
But know that there’s a distant home
Although the sea-line’s been monochrome
Our progenies we’ll never know
Leave no trace in the crunching snow
Cast no shadows in the afterglow
Rise new sun
For the old world
See your sons
Roaming confirmed
Conducts us in this feral void
They came along a golden path
Jaws of ravines to avoid
Half-eyed wit make us worthy
To sail the foams of the grey seas
Our life is an endless journey
Driven by tempest and fresh breeze
We may never settle down
But know that there’s a distant home
Although the sea-line’s been monochrome
Our progenies we’ll never know
Leave no trace in the crunching snow
Cast no shadows in the afterglow
Rise new sun
For the old world
See your sons
Roaming confirmed
Set forth seventh sons
Sever the old roots
Speak arcane tongues
Reach for the new fruits
A dawn of a new day
Shine on your faces
Demolish the old way
Bear the torch for ages
We may never settle down
But know that there’s a distant home
Although the sea-line’s been monochrome
Our progenies we’ll never know
Leave no trace in the crunching snow
Cast no shadows in the afterglow
Rise new sun
For the old world
See your sons

In the Forest
by Beautiful DeathAustralia is the land of fjords and ice giants, right? Beautiful Death is from there anyway. One of the best things on Bandcamp right now. Acoustic-atmospheric folk guitar music.

Life has gone on long enough
by NONEsupported by 126 fans who also own “Old Roots”
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs...

A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue.
