lyrics
Behold! Thine is time alone
In this desert vast and wild
Mine‘s the fate to boldly roam
Since scorn has first been plucked and piled
Am I seething, gleaming still
Only somehow, for now, until
Vanity wanes, grotesque I will
Creasing sounds of hell, of thrill
I will
Evil spun from a diamond thread
By magic hands, invisible fingers
Drafts of assurance
Ruthlessly shred
A plea to purpose, that ever lingers
So arbitrary once,
So free my Fall
From misfortune to bliss
All infinity is build
Layer by layer
Of uncommon guilt
So, scope was crafted
For hope had perished
Left me, playing my role nude
Embarrassed
To absorb, to drain, to feel
To foresee, to fail, to heal
So arbitrary once,
So free my Fall
Holy promise of salvation
Onto you I call
To absorb, to drain, to feel
To foresee, to fail, to heal
In this desert vast and wild
Mine‘s the fate to boldly roam
Since scorn has first been plucked and piled
Am I seething, gleaming still
Only somehow, for now, until
Vanity wanes, grotesque I will
Creasing sounds of hell, of thrill
I will
Evil spun from a diamond thread
By magic hands, invisible fingers
Drafts of assurance
Ruthlessly shred
A plea to purpose, that ever lingers
So arbitrary once,
So free my Fall
From misfortune to bliss
All infinity is build
Layer by layer
Of uncommon guilt
So, scope was crafted
For hope had perished
Left me, playing my role nude
Embarrassed
To absorb, to drain, to feel
To foresee, to fail, to heal
So arbitrary once,
So free my Fall
Holy promise of salvation
Onto you I call
To absorb, to drain, to feel
To foresee, to fail, to heal

Everything comes together extremely well in this album. Probably my all time favorite black metal album now. The mix of atmospheric almost shoegaze playing leads extremely well into the intensity black metal normally has. The saxophone they use on almost all the songs really puts it above others in the genre for me.

Excellent prog metal in the vein of bands like Cynic and Fallujah.

Another seamless blend of extreme genres from Stortregn. Killer riffs, tasty basslines, and lots of fun tech influences in the composition and instrumentation make this an absolute banger front to back.

Epic, expansive hard rock from Perihelion that pairs post-metal expansiveness with skyscraping vocal melodies.

From the Other Side of the Mirror
by GlassingOn this pummeling new LP, the Austin group blend up screamo, black metal, and noise rock into heady, urgent music.

Appreciated this more after properly delving into the albums. Dunno why, since it’s kinda obviously genius. Brains can be weird sometimes.
