They are lost, lost in their lives, abandoned by friends, cast away
Left behind, disinherited and ruined, there appears to be no escape
Escape from the grievous reality, where all has fell apart
They yearn for facile rescue, they are now ready to convert
Collapsed into despair and gloom
For they lost what they held most dear
But they refuse to see
That the doing was their own
Deprived of their will they let
The disease to spread and corrupt their minds
And then they simply fall
Into snares that were long set
As a herd of calves with unpretentious
Spirits they roam around and await a shepherd to come
To lead the way, to show them to their barns
To feed them comforting lies and fill their weakened hearts
In deepest fear, they show who they are
And blindly follow anyone
Collapsed into despair and gloom
For they lost what they held most dear
But they refuse to see
That the doing was their own
Deprived of their will they let
The disease to spread and corrupt their minds
And then they simply fall
Into snares that were long set
In hardest times, when all is lost
When plague, war and hunger strike
The weakness awakes and determination dies
With illusion of effortless deliverance herdsmen arise

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
