lyrics

Born from slaughter – In the dead of night the spawn from hell now set to fight
In a shell of guts with blades of bone breaking the silence with an undead moan
Tireless feet march onwards veiled by a black night
Surrounding the homes of the living – in a quest to destroy all of mankind
The night birds ceased their songs – the guards know something’s wrong
Nobody expected this – no way to be prepared for what’s to come

In the shadows the dark army marches – The dreadful warriors from the burning deep
Masked with the Skulls of the Fallen – The awoken evil that never sleeps

Glowing eyes, glaring from the darkness – the warning bells they toll too late
An unhuman eerie war cry – the last thing they’ll hear before their gruesome fate

No mercy – just cruelty – the pleasure after the kill
What a pity, that this feeble mankind can only die once
Mutilate the dead to further satisfy our bloodlust
The feast goes on until the first light of the wretched sun

The dawn exposes the carnage done – in the morning the hell-spawn marches on

The evil never sleeps – the demons from the burning deep
Masked with the skulls of the fallen
Masked with the skulls of the fallen

I wouldnt call it blackened death but it certainly has the bleak dark atmosphere akin to Akhlys or Watain while pummeling you with pure death metal and a touch of dissonance and doominess á la Morbid Angel..it really combines almost everything i love about metal and theres not a weak spot on here..their first album was good but this is stylistically much different and a vast improvement.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
