lyrics

-----------------Lyrics--------------------
Our wretched bodies serve no purpose
They collapse while we scream and perish
as we fall from favor to failure
They withhold us from the fate of flesh

Pregnant with darkness there is only fear
Standing now before another grave  
Feeling like a lesser being shrouded by the cold 
Womblike silence in the dead of night

Where fire awaits
The only throne will be claimed by death
Where the sun haunts
The only dream we are capable of
Where fire awaits
We are petrified beneath a brutal will
To loose one after another in time
And nothing will ever change

An abhorrent swarm will fill this world
You see the shadow in the fire
When even weak will falls apart
As you hear the truthful heartbeat fade

Sentient flesh bounden to flesh
For we all have been deceived
We can all fall into the dark
Now only fire awaits
For a futile faith lingers deep
In the unsettling depths
Abide the hoists of winter
Now only fire awaits

When the sky unfolds and kneels
before the beast in the remnants of times
Seeing beyond solitude, sorrow and grief
There is exaltation to be gained
Once we sacrifice soma to flame

All That Has Never Been True
by ULTHA

supported by 62 fans who also own “2. A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits) [Live Session]”

One of the best black metal bands of the last 8 years, which means they're beyond the boring tropes of the label. Intelligent and innovative with music geared towards the emotive ends of the work, not an adornment of scene badges or theatrical misanthropy. stevstemac

Menschenmühle
by Kanonenfieber

supported by 51 fans who also own “2. A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits) [Live Session]”

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler

Om hundrede år
by AFSKY

supported by 49 fans who also own “2. A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits) [Live Session]”

While Ofte jeg drømmer mig død will most likely always be my favourite Afsky album (being one ov my favourite albums in general), Om hundrede år ticks all the boxes I hoped it would: the calm and simultaneously depressing folk elements are there; the wailing screams of a forlorn spirit, forced to eternally wander the woods (apt comparison, deadpunk!); the harsh, bitterly cold guitar riffs and the ultimate realisation of life, death and our inevitable undoing. Exactly what I want. Recommended! David Fischer
