lyrics
The flames that pierced the morning sky
with cleansing purity
Carving out our destiny
into obscurity
In winding scarlet streams
soaking the blackened earth
All civilisation yields
returned to ash and dirt
In crackling bolts of thunder
and blazing firestorms
All flesh is torn asunder
in howling gales of thorns
Splendor reduced to ashes
and crumbling palace walls
Swept up, as in a rapture
as mankind falls
Behold the light that the morningstar has thrown
All that remains are shadows etched in stone
This dawn will see a final sunrise
from whirling maelstroms born
Wielding it’s phantom flame
swallowing life with utter scorn
A permeating darkness rests
over the scorched remains
All existence ceased and perished
an eerie silence reigns
Witness the flames of the brightest sun reborn
All that remains is the dust of the forlorn
Behold the light that the morningstar has thrown
All that remains are shadows etched in stone

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli

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. sachavonkarl74

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!! sachavonkarl74

La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années...
Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne. Jordan Vauvert
