lyrics
A body floating in the dying sea engulfed in saccharine rain, utterly at peace and crowned with a golden halo;
The lucky one, the one blessed with the gift of lies.
The sweetest song from an angel; when it’s lost, merge me with fire.
The dulcet hymn of servitude.
Sing the rose lullaby of subjugation.
I see nothing comparable to the heavens;
the golden light I bathed in morphing to ash.
The sweetest song from an angel; it’s been lost to me, merge me with fire.
The dulcet hymn of servitude.
Sing the rose lullaby of subjugation, f;attened by the authors of tenebrous words.
Lead from the fortress by the chorus that rose up and cast doubt on the altar;
Singing the serpents anthem,
Within cancerous cluster chords,
Deafened by nothing’s crushing pitch,
The note of degeneration.
Chorus of atonality, roaring.
Sing me the serpents anthem
Within cancerous cluster chords,
Deafened by nothing’s crushing pitch,
The note of degeneration.
It was the first time I saw nothing left but the serenity of death.
I just see nothing left.
There is nothing left.
Bring forth the silence eternally.
The lucky one, the one blessed with the gift of lies.
The sweetest song from an angel; when it’s lost, merge me with fire.
The dulcet hymn of servitude.
Sing the rose lullaby of subjugation.
I see nothing comparable to the heavens;
the golden light I bathed in morphing to ash.
The sweetest song from an angel; it’s been lost to me, merge me with fire.
The dulcet hymn of servitude.
Sing the rose lullaby of subjugation, f;attened by the authors of tenebrous words.
Lead from the fortress by the chorus that rose up and cast doubt on the altar;
Singing the serpents anthem,
Within cancerous cluster chords,
Deafened by nothing’s crushing pitch,
The note of degeneration.
Chorus of atonality, roaring.
Sing me the serpents anthem
Within cancerous cluster chords,
Deafened by nothing’s crushing pitch,
The note of degeneration.
It was the first time I saw nothing left but the serenity of death.
I just see nothing left.
There is nothing left.
Bring forth the silence eternally.

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.
