In the Shadows I Dwell
05:35

Bewitched by abyss I lost my will
I lost the knowledge what's fake or real
Sea of fog is covering mysteries
Darkside here is roaming free
Deathspell is destroying me
Cursing my mind with rage and fear
It's prelude of sorrow, it's tragedy
Possessed by shadows I must be
Lonely star shining above the bald mountain as a symbol of exile
Soul condemned to die, to decay in the complete absence of light
I can feel now only cold wind wich is guiding me throught the abyss
Home of worthless souls, lost spirits and everything that should not exist
With no reason to die, nor to live there are no martyrs
Or even if there's one I believe there must be someone watching
Wind delivers air so cold like it could contain the remains of my soul
In the wastelands of minds no reason to stop, no reason to go on
Pain is causing death, I believe that there is no choice left
How the things will go, I know that there is nothing to fight for
Every step I take makes my rotten mind lose another piece
I'm prisoner, yet there's no cage surrounding me
Where the darkest shadows dwells,
there's no soul that could escape
There's so many yet to suffer
lonely spirit lost in darkness
Obsessed by the night, like there will be no sunrise
Lose your ever value, let the darkness guide you
Storm is raging on, souls drifting throught horizon
Worship your own demons, or they'll show you no remorse
Life is far away and there's no god left to worship
Heart left do decay, I don't know if my soul was worth it?

Cold Winds of Desolation

Welcome to the ancient ruins where You can find Your answers for
Questions every human is asking so was I, since I was born
You don't even have to ask me, You've just found what You've been seeking for
You've already seen them in their every form, bow to the cold winds of desolation
First there was no consciousness, lifeless was the universe
Even with the strongest spells, you won't do what nature can
By the Tears made of star dust and liquid metals spitted out by planets
The fist forms of life has found its from beneath our sky
And life has found its place in the universe
Emotions has been invented
And life has found its way to survive
Something was born so something must die
Because without night there would be no dawn
There would be no rain without any stormy cloud hanging on the sky
And without death there would be no life
Mother Earth must finally get back what she've brought into the light
Now, finish the ritual, bow to the oceans, bow to the mountains
These are Your ancestors
Say, reality has no conscience, so death is not a punishment
This is nature's life-giving force, cold winds of desolation
Everything you've knew about existence seems to be meaningless
You'll gain sacred knowledge of the nature
If You'll accept the concept of death
We are all a part of something bigger, We are all kidnapped by the current of the same river
'Cause in the future... And mark my words!
Your flesh shall become mountain, river, rain or even the mighty storm

Angeldust

For whom the demons bless no path will be clear
No star will shine above the sick with contamination of the will
Those, whom the gods detest are condemned to extinct
Thousand plagues which I deserve are falling on me
As I take a breath I feel like
Serpent wraps around my neck
Few steps beyond my black kingdom
Where the shadows and darkness reign
I spit with the golden powder
I'm choking with angeldust
Devine's curse for every being
Of blackened minds and of ice-scrapped hearts
The blessed night has come, it shall heal my soul
I can feel relief while the moonlight is so beautiful
Casting ancient spells, retrieving elder scrolls - across the -
- winding roads, I must go throught the enchanted maze of ancient dark lords
I'm heading to the place where all shadows seem to fade
But as I take a breath I feel like Serpent wraps around my neck
Aurora borealis shows my way back into the gates
Few steps beyond my black kingdom Where the shadows and darkness reign
Crossing the ancient bridge, primeval keeper and border of the time
I spit with the golden powder I'm choking with angel dust
Damned are the ordinators, sons of darkness, hiers of black arts
Divine's curse for every being of blackened minds and of ice-scrapped hearts
Unholly's powers dawn, complete absence of light
Chaos has arisen, there is no way back
To make this world so dark, extinguish all the stars
Destroy the sun and Rip the god's heart out
Dark angels are unleashed, Your worst enemies
They shall now ordinate how the wings should be
Its the end of thy age, dark flame is glowing bright
Black dragon is coming for You, You will die!
Injustice, aversion, destructive unnatural selection
Redemption, sacrilegium, the final order coronation
Trapped in the lawless abyss, in the wastelands of time
In the void there's no god to establish the laws
No power will stop the destroyer's jaws
Angeldust, cruel plague - infecting my lungs

Czarny Jeździec
04:14
|

|
W zimnej ziemi skrzepła krew, tu gdzie niegdyś gniazdo gryfa
Nieboskłon podbija czerń, tak się rodzi noc parszywa
Podmuch zły rozpędza mgłę, uschłe liście wiatr porywa
Żniwiarz z nocy zrodził się... by swą rolę znów odgrywać
Wiatr roznosi mroźny dech, ten z gałęzi sople zrywa
Jeździec jawi się wśród drzew, mroczna aura las spowiła
Jeden starczył jego gest, rozstąpiła się mogiła
Czarnej śmierci niesie zew, łowów chwila nastąpiła
Otchłań pustki woła was, dusze co na ziemi skrzepły
Skończcie szlochać, na was czas, życia kwiaty wasze zwiędły
Już nie zstąpi blady blask, stąd wasz nastrój wielce cierpły
Nie będziecie w ziemi trwać, wasz tu pobyt jawnie bierny
Mowa śmierci budzi lęk
I wrzask dusz co uzbiera, by rozniecić swą latarnię
Prędzej piach z klepsydry sypie się
Wodzi wzrokiem wokół żniwiarz, węszy cel, na który wyrok padnie
Mroźny księżyc spaja lód, lustrem grozy martwy strumień
I zwierciadłem śmierci kłów, bladym namiestnikiem trumien
Dzierżyciela ściętych głów, setek serc bijących stłumień
Żniwiarz śmierci krąży znów, a wraz z nim absencja sumień
W mroku słychać kopyt stuk, inkantacje i świst kosy
Śmierci szepty zwalą z nóg, opętają w pięknie nocy
Biada słyszeć ten tok słów — czarny żniwiarz ci proroczy
Tu gdzie stoisz, będzie grób, duszę twą wyrwę w mej mocy
Ziemia matką żywych istot, lecz roztropna i uparta
Nie jej cechą żadna litość, zimna jest to miłość, prawda
Stratny byt obróci w nicość, zgnije też obłoka martwa
Niezliczona istnień ilość podążyła w stronę światła...

Awakening of Dragon
06:53

An unknown force is rising from the ashes of
frozen kingdom, see the fallen dominion
Awaiting its reborn, witchcraft is raging on
Dark arts presenting forgotten life form
His sculptures are black, as black as were his eyes
In the primeval times, when the twilight was know as the
Dawn and the night, mighty queen of existence,
Almighty dark mistress used to form the consistence
Of lungs burning air that he used to breath
Of poisoned rays enlighting his way
Of forsaken lands, that he used to possess
Ultimate fate designed for dragon scale
The forgotten shall rise, awake, reborn in flames!
Do not let us wait for you, oh mighty ruler of this lands!
The ground is now shaking by his power he's restoring strength!
His wings are regaining flesh, feel the ancient dragon's breath!
Shadows beneath his wings, he's the bringer of the symbolical eclipse
Spirit of the night, his blackness seems so bright
Extensive darkness of the dark lord has fallen over the lost kingdom
He shall rule again and guide us, his sons, by his interminable wisdom
In the shadow of the dragon - coldness possessing nature
His breath so deadly cold it could even carve the glaciers
Crafted in the void, as the weapon of gods, now roaming free
By the power of ancient black magic, Dark ritual is complete we've unlocked every seal
Dwelling in the shadows, crawling like rats,
Like rats we were hiding, avoiding daylight
There is no being in this rotten world
Nor were in the heavens, that could fall this low
In the darkest shrines, We've performed rituals
Mighty dark lord's eyes were always observing us
Through the darkest nights, where the shadows lies
Sacrilegios rites, summoning the satan's fire!

Lawless void, yet it wields conciousness on it's own
It's like infinity of thoughts, swarm of minds, it's incomprehensible
Transcendental neurons made of dust of once consumed souls
Immeasurable wisdom, opus carved to perfection; a new god, called The End shall introduce his son...
Darkest demon trapped in the wastelands, right in the eye of so called God
Release thy seed, destroy the sun, let the stars melt down by your sword-arm
Desecrate the reality, freeze the time by his breath so deadly cold
Unleash the beast, let him do thy will, non shall survive the shadowfall
This universe is just a vessel for primeval form of space;
As it should not be compressed to any shape
Death is salvation from time and from it's cold breath
The beast will come soon and it will destroy all the cosmic chains
Remorseless beast, consuming all the stars, Darkness darker than dead space
Released at last, ultimate one, destroyer of worlds remains faceless
The spell has been casted, there is no escape, behold the monstrous wrath of the Serpent
The judgment day, predicted by the ancients, All the stars forced to surrender
A canto for every son of moonlight, the end is near my friends...
Chaos will reign forevermore in this rotten universe!
Awake!

In the furthest of the lands the air is so clear
Winter landscapes, untouched mountains as far as I can see
Where the sun is just an another star... untainted peace
Where the forest lies grim and dark, where on the open sea I can drift free
And the power that rules this place shall now show it's real face
Forsaken magic, an ancient spell soon will open the gates!
Lonely longboat is touching the coast, of this unheartly peninsula
Proudly I will leave my board to see the blackest of the worlds
So many years, ages has past, vast horizons of snow and dust
Wield your sword and bow before forgotten kingdoms of the north
Hear the phantom's cries, no time has passed for the souls possessed by ice
See the tragic past, sadness so vast, where rotten king forever dies
There was a day when all the power and strange has come to an end
Only ruins remain after the ancient dragon's breath
Once in those frozen lands many would die for this coldness
No man shall conquer this place, none shall touch the forsaken mace
Breathtaking is the view of the giant glacier that is hiding the thruth
No one will justify the perpetrators of the ancient scars
Lost kingdom and cursed mountains, Malevolent for mankind
Where the shadows lies, rotten king forever dies

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!!

Saw them live and was taken away! Breath taking melodic black at its best. Just a deep dive into Nirvana 🖤

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.

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.
