I can see the sun
Fall beneath the horizon
For me it'll never
Rise again
Now the time has come
To reach out for the stars
Slay a thousand demons
Mid Winter War
The darkness has fallen, the world has gone black
When will the light return to me?
I have seen this all before
My demons knocking at my door
I see them coming from the north
Yet I feel no fear
We will fight them, we won't fail
Fucking metal will prevail
This is the darkest night
I have ever seen
Leave me my battle
My only light
The blood of the fallen ones
Darkens the snow
Leave me my battle
It's all I know
I have been blessed, the battle is won
But the worst has not yet begun
The frost has covered all the land
The evil king still in command
The road to home is closed for good
The prisoners our only food
Maybe this wasn't so smart after all
Trying to fight a mid winter war
This is the darkest night
I have ever seen
Leave me my battle
My only light
The blood of the fallen ones
Darkens the snow
Leave me my battle
It's all I know
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.
