The chill of the northwind bites in my fingers
The long winter's frost covers the seas
I shall sail across darkened waters
To raid the land of the Christian scum
Not for my king, not for my land
just to honor the elder gods
Where is your god now?
We will attack on the day of their savoir
Their praying guards will be caught suprised
As we set fire to all their churches
Leaving nothing but ashes behind
Not for my king, not for my land
Just for the gold and the damsels fair
Belgian Doom / Death Metal. This is a fantastic album & one I had somehow missed when it came out. Thank you to Sælzer Bub for showing me the way here! I love the vocals, the changes in tempo & the crushing riffs throughout! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
While this album has many higher tempo sections, it nonetheless presents imposing funeral doom. Organ, and choirs aid in delivering all the dread of the impending apocalypse, as displayed in the opening track Crossing the Burned Wasteland, which sets the listener up with a burning crescendo; only setting us up for our inevitable downfall.
