Addicted to demise
Endless grey murk
Sat heavy upon undulation
The hominid weaklings
Fail to perceive, fail to act
A simulacrum of virtuousness
The stone is cast
Vapour writhes in its wake
A surface seething gently
Dark emerald and sickly pale
Far below that, anguish
Crisis surges from the depths
Seasons whirl
Gradually blackening
The process accelerates
Action and reaction
Inviting to despoiling
You claim 'eerie prescience':
I laugh at your aggrandisement
Things have always been thus
You just failed to notice until now
If I said that existence is Cartesian
You would say: no, my experience is not
If I am bereft, a new lover does
Not make me who I was before
Bone dice have been rolled
Reversal is impossible
Forfeited mechanism
The arrow’s oncoming
Or poisoned boulder
Picking up speed
Your self-deceit punished
By inexorable energy
Your preference is of no consequence
The skeins have been plotted
When this has been expropriated
And all has been expropriated
And your endowment has been abolished
Then you will know the wealth of my cruelty
Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
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
Folk-influenced heavy metal; as the title suggests, this LP is all about home, described through landscapes, literature and paintings. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 6, 2017
I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-
