lyrics
Through the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber
Past the wan-mooned abysses of night
I have lived o'er my lives without number
I have sounded all things with my sight
And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak, being driven to madness with fright
I have whirled with the earth at the dawning
When the sky was a vaporous flame
I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim
I had drifted o'er seas without ending
Under sinister grey-clouded skies
That the many-forked lightning is rending
That resound with hysterical cries
With the moans of invisible daemons, that out of the green waters rise
I have scanned the vast ivy-clad palace
I have trod its untenanted hall
Where the moon rising up from the valleys
Shows the tapestried things on the wall
I was old when the pharaohs first mounted
The jewel-decked throne by the Nile
I was old in those epochs uncounted
When I, and I only, was vile
Oh, great was the sin of my spirit,
And great is the reach of its doom;
Not the pity of Heaven can cheer it,
Nor can respite be found in the tomb
Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke
A blackened doom concept record about the very real problem of amphibian extinction, “Croak” is a punishing, essential listen. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 23, 2022
