The year is 1982
AIDS reaches Canada
The Falklands War
Sega releases Zaxxon
Nicki Minage is born
Randy Rhoads dies
Madonna drops her debut
And Earth continues spiraling into the void
Mankind's failures
And a slowly dying Earth
The wretched hasten the end
A legacy devoid of worth
Blue becomes black
Oceans swell with plastic
Trees fade to dust
A legacy so fucking sick
The wheel of time
Struggles to continue on
Rusty gears shriek
Into a lifeless dawn
No one hears the screeching
This Earth a rotting corpse
The abyss opens wide
And swallows all we're worth
None
Nothing
Nowhere
No one
Humanity's errors
Bring an end to life
Green buries green
All I see are dimming lights
Flesh becomes ash
Memories blow on the wind
Earth burns blood red
Into the void we spin
And this is all you see
The sky melting into the sea
Mountains split, lava will not quit
The ground sundered, a smoking pit
Oceans bubble toxic steam
While forests burst at the seams
A wretched fate opens the gates
The hungry jaws of destiny can not and will not wait
The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 26, 2024
What an absolutely beautiful album! This is what black metal really leads to; beautiful and powerful expressions of anger, mourning, and joy that lead to real change for those suffering! I can’t say enough good things about this album! The huge range of genres is incredible as well! deathmoth829
