People come into the world from me
They leave through me blessed
Two poles blaze or go out
To see it differently every day
I search time for loneliness
To love the black time
Silence of night, flickering shadows
And to curse god's eyes around
That they can see me in my pleasure
After an empty day that hurts
To be treated without God's help
But I gain strength in a purest ecstasy
When silence breaks shadows
It brings me a painful humiliation
All of my days
Inclined plane
All of my notions
Like a leaden ball
Peace of my soul
Sagged branch
Stride of time
Unspeakable river
Sprouts of flavour
Tied in a knot
All of my steps
As fragile as porcelain
Yes, similiar to Mournful Congregation but more staightforward. Heavy just about all the time. Much less fluff than MC. Better growls, too. The production lends the music a majestic feel. The only thing I don't like are the rare spoken word bits. If the next release has more of those I'll address them as Mopey Wanderer (... I mean it). You can trust Germans to put the fun in funeral doom. tr_🇺🇦
one of the best death doom bands so far. great melodies with great atmospheres. mostly slow, heavy and doomy but sometimes there are these groovy double-bass drum moments wich are pretty fucking cool. if you like death doom and melodic atmospheric black metal, this is for you. Sælzer Bub
