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 147 fans who also own “A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits)”

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 132 fans who also own “A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits)”

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.

Unsettling Whispers
by GAEREA

supported by 125 fans who also own “A Shadow In The Fire, Pt. II (Where Fire Awaits)”

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. sachavonkarl74
