The Portent of Throne

I stand in isolation, staring at legions of throne.
they warn of our fall
"you will see the ages of man come and go
birthed in its own selfishness
cursed to dig its own grave
cursed to destroy all that it's sown"
and then a great pain
came about me...
lashed with anguish by the gyres of eyes
my vision contorts all around me
halls of liquid faces bleed
the throne drag me below their depths
plunged I gaze, I gaze upon the east
they cry, golden screams of wonder
they see, our cursed voyage
they bring, deliverance
they bring, deliverance

A Stone Bridge of Folly

I dreamed the silence.
A flame ignited my mind.
a smog of static drifted
betwixt closed lips.
I witnessed the silence.
through eyes of ash.
a dancing rain dripped
betwixt closed lips.
I streaked my blood across the marble
The marble wall of godly truth
A frigid wind began to blow
It sang of the coming fall
It sings of our coming fall

A soul's world, where the mountains join the clouds.
A single light wanders, in search of a home.
A violet darkness shines, embracing this kingdom.
A peaceful land is robbed of it's virtue.
A lost world, where the gods join the perish.
A single story wanders, in search of a tome.
A vibrant light shines, embracing this kingdom.
A higher knowledge is lost among the newly righteous
Creed.
In reverence of sweet, blind arrogance
An order tends to its throne
In ignorance of the fallen worshippers
That thirst, thirst for blood.

Motif 8 (The Dirge)

Bloodied and mangled
Their poisoned husks
lied down
consuming fire
in consuming fire
Their Flesh
Consumed
Their Flesh
Consumed
Conusmed by man
Her Body alight
soaked by oil
She lied down
in consuming fire
in consuming fire

Terra lay lifeless as her beauty fades
A corpse still ripe for man to rape
Limbs torn off for a new domain
Veins stripped clean to sustain the plague
Who dare ration mercy
For the destructive race.
Who slaughtered our kin
and threaten our rule.
As ashes sear, the gateway to heaven scars shut
With but flickering, an age and communion is lost
In a swift flash the curse is purged
A stain of radiance is all that's left
In a short moment a kingdom was lost
Like the age of wonder and sovereign grace

Communion of The Nameless
by GrĂĄt Strigoi
supported by 16 fans who also own “Collapse”
Gråt Strigoi a su créer un univers en déréliction dans A Path Through Ashes : il réitère l'exploit dans Communion of The Nameless et, tel un Dieu courroucé ou un humain comme Oppenheimer, il le détruit dans la foulée en y mettant toute sa puissance. Gråt Strigoi conserve la même approche expérimentale : son black metal s'inspire de plusieurs genres mais aussi rend hommage à d'autres groupes, Thou en tête, pour que le cataclysme émotionnel soit total et spectaculaire. C'est vraiment monumental !

Fugitive Wizard - Obscuri Æternum
by Fugitive Wizard
supported by 14 fans who also own “Collapse”
Probably the best in the Fugitive's repertoire of raw, symphonic, buzzsaw poems of dark fantasy. May it have its knightly tinge, it appears to be a more somber exposition in my mind's eye. The first track envisaged for me, a grim and hopeless struggle of a bloody and dirtied knight, the listener, fighting an uphill battle in darkness that has all but extinguished his or her inner light. Despite setback, the warrior stands time and again, and embraces the agonizing woe of assiduity.
