lyrics
Do you see the mercy of he who will release nirvana?
The father and fosterer, the shield and sword, the blood and breath, the strength and song.
Merciful salvation!
Spirit, speak through this body, sing to bare your child’s devotion.
Blessed are we to have nothing, through clasping hands, the prophet's voice, our dying eyes; liberated from the chains of our being, the inevitability of sin.
The shameful strength of our own will, a broken spine marred by the serpent’s tongue,
the sacrifice offered to the corrupted.
Lead us from here, the Princes’ shadow path,
We surrender for the sacrifice, and to ascend.
Sow this body in dark, and raise the soul in light.
Extend the glory of one through my corrupted flesh to fend off the serpent.
The father and fosterer, the shield and sword, the blood and breath, the strength and song.
Merciful salvation!
Spirit, speak through this body, sing to bare your child’s devotion.
Blessed are we to have nothing, through clasping hands, the prophet's voice, our dying eyes; liberated from the chains of our being, the inevitability of sin.
The shameful strength of our own will, a broken spine marred by the serpent’s tongue,
the sacrifice offered to the corrupted.
Lead us from here, the Princes’ shadow path,
We surrender for the sacrifice, and to ascend.
Sow this body in dark, and raise the soul in light.
Extend the glory of one through my corrupted flesh to fend off the serpent.

Teethed Glory & Injury
by ALTAR OF PLAGUESA band I unfortunately didn't get to see live. More electronic influences than "Mammal" are incorporated seamlessly. Burnt Year features one of the most harrowing moments in music I've ever heard.
go to album -
Probably my favourite band that are lumped into the "djent" movement (bar Meshuggah, but who really counts them). The Didact is extremely ambitious, and it actually deserves the "Progressive" tag.
go to album -
Probably my favourite metal album if I had to pick just 1. The album is extremely well written from start to finish and the technicality never comes off as forced. Just go listen to it

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.
