about
The leading melody (a.k.a. Székely Anthem) of this song was composed by Kálmán Mihalik in 1921. He was a Székely physician and composer, died of typhus age 26. The song was banned for decades. It was officially declared as Székely National Anthem in 2009. I took inspiration from it in honor of my Székely ancestry.
The lyrics of the song are about the 1764 massacre in Mádéfalva, ordered by Maria Theresa Queen of Austria and Hungary. After the Habsburg army violated centuries old Székely rights by forcing them to set up two regiments, although they already had a privilege to have an autonomous border patrol military organisation commanded by their own chieftains, Székelys chose to resist. So the Habsburg troops slaughtered all the people in the village where a meeting took place, men, women and children. (Based upon Székely folk ballads collected by Sámuel Szabó and Elek Benedek.)

lyrics
I have to go father go to Mádéfalva
A meeting was announced by shiny noble lords
Many valiant lads are gathering there as well
By the snowy mountains thus I have to say farewell
My dear tender son you don’t have to go there
The meeting was announced by high austrian lords
We are doomed before them they always brought evil
They always brought misery to poor Székely people
They broke the hearts of many mothers who hardly
Brought up the handsome lads they took to join the army
Don’t go there my dear son they always brought evil
They always brought misery to poor Székely people
Don’t worry dear father yet I have to depart
I mustn’t be afraid but I must have a brave heart
If the shiny lords could frighten me away
Yellow-haired maidens disdained me all the way
So Sándor Dakó rode to Mádéfalva
Rode on a grey horse with a crimson sabretache
Many valiant lads stood up there surrounded
And shed their blood one and all by the snowy mountains
Oh good Sándor Dakó why you had to go there
For your father’s despair for your mother’s despair
For the doom of yourself
Now eagles are lurking to feast on your flesh
And over there rises a river of mourning
Indeed it is rising towards Mádéfalva
Where are you good bards maybe you are asleep
As you missed to chant of the great sorrow of Fel-Csík
The great sorrow of Fel-Csík the mourning of Háromszék
We all will remember blackguard Sivkovics’ raid
As he built a heap of prime of youth slaughtered
Threw some into fire and others into water
One mourns a father one mourns a mother
One lost a sweetheart and a bairn the other
Their plenty of tears surge as a great flood
Alas all the rivers are flooding but with blood
As Olt runs into grey Danube with its crimson water
All who could flee from the land are cursed to ever wander
My part is to go away into grey exile
If only I could see my home just once in a while
A meeting was announced by shiny noble lords
Many valiant lads are gathering there as well
By the snowy mountains thus I have to say farewell
My dear tender son you don’t have to go there
The meeting was announced by high austrian lords
We are doomed before them they always brought evil
They always brought misery to poor Székely people
They broke the hearts of many mothers who hardly
Brought up the handsome lads they took to join the army
Don’t go there my dear son they always brought evil
They always brought misery to poor Székely people
Don’t worry dear father yet I have to depart
I mustn’t be afraid but I must have a brave heart
If the shiny lords could frighten me away
Yellow-haired maidens disdained me all the way
So Sándor Dakó rode to Mádéfalva
Rode on a grey horse with a crimson sabretache
Many valiant lads stood up there surrounded
And shed their blood one and all by the snowy mountains
Oh good Sándor Dakó why you had to go there
For your father’s despair for your mother’s despair
For the doom of yourself
Now eagles are lurking to feast on your flesh
And over there rises a river of mourning
Indeed it is rising towards Mádéfalva
Where are you good bards maybe you are asleep
As you missed to chant of the great sorrow of Fel-Csík
The great sorrow of Fel-Csík the mourning of Háromszék

As Olt runs into grey Danube with its crimson water
All who could flee from the land are cursed to ever wander

If only I could see my home just once in a while

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.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...

Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite.
