EVERYTHING HERE IS SO COLD
EVERYTHING IS SO DARK
EVERY SOUND AND NOTE
FILLS THE AIR
DIABOLIC SHAPES
BEATING IN MY CHEST TIGHT
CAN`T REMEMBER WHEN
I`VE BECOME SO BLIND
DARKNESS
IS GROWING
LIGHTS OUT
AGAIN BEFORE ME
EVERYTHING HERE IS SO COLD
EVERYTHING IS SO DARK
I`M UNABLE TO THINK ANYTHING
WALLS ARE CLOSING
I CAN`T BREATHE
CAN`T REMEMBER WHEN I FORGOT MY FACE
MY NAME WAS WRITTEN
ON YOUR CROSS
FIRE IN YOUR HEART
SENT ME TO THIS BLIND PLACE
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
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 25, 2023
This is my favorite metal album of all time. The only bad thing is that the vocals are somewhat buried in the mix. Otherwise, the record perfectly blends a mix of metal genres with excellent songcraft. A record you'll listen to again and again. The Real Nick House
