Shrines, temples and churches
Are no more the places of reverence
Nothing but gaping emptiness
Is left from their former radiance
Vanished has their erstwhile glory for good
Crumbling are their solid immense walls
Sacrosanct symbols in all their sainthood
Warp and decay in hollow ruined halls
Howling beasts now roam around
The places that swarmed with worshippers
They wait for the few that remained devout
To satiate their bloodthirst
There is only one real law, that applies to all living things of the Earth
What grows will wither and what lives will die, to the soil from which they're made they will return
Faith will not grant you eternal life in heavens, that is just fiction and falsity
You cannot achieve what doesn't exist, neither with purity nor austerity
Death is no gateway, there's just oblivion, the blackest void is the afterlife
There's no spirit, it's just flesh and bones, your whole body will putrefy
Earthquakes and lightning, floods and storms
Hurricanes, fires and frost
Forces of nature rule the world
It's chaos in its pure form
The frail shall perish, the strong shall prevail
There is no place for weakness in life
Conquer your pain, leave regrets behind
And take control of who you are

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
Featuring members of Noothgrush, Graves at Sea, and more, the Oakland metal band juxtapose cavernous doom with spaced-out shoegaze. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 21, 2024

Great album for sure. The vocals are really similar to Trha and if you listen and compare you'll notice that their riffs are also similar to Sargeist, but better at times. This album hits a sweet spot for me as I like my black metal raw and melodic. There are many albums in this style but this one is executed very well. Nice for blasting in the car 🎉 Fog's Kiss
