𝕺𝖛 π•Ύπ–”π–—π–—π–”π–œ For a first release this is very good quality in recording and songwriting/ arrangements. Although it is not sticking out of other Blackgaze releases it is fun listening to it. It gets darker with every track which is a good development when listening to it. I would be interested how it could develop even 2 steps darker. Maybe on the LP.

niivuk Came across this band looking for anarchist black metal on instagram, looked it up here and damn, just DAMN. Only three tracks that blew me away INSTANTLY, and now I just can't get enough of this band. Beautifully aggressive black metal with gorgeous shoegaze melodies. Looking forward for their music!! Favorite track: Bank of Roses.

1.
Bank of Roses If there be anywhere so beautiful a thing as peaceful oblivion, then please take me. Banks of roses, shaded by cypreses, and onwards we marched with godless intentions. Through the mire, attending your footfall. On the levees of which I would soon awake. My shaken recollection is clouded and vague, as I reply that I know nothing. Basked in the bloom of ornamental adjectives. Words help suspended in beads of amber. For I love thee. O, Eternity! O, Eternity!
2.
Span of Black Nihility A wretched life, unwholly lived. Drowning in the blackest of wings. Thoughts lay besieged, baited and lured. Distilled, given form, adroit, tenebrous. A wretched life, unwholly lived. Drowning in the blackest of wings. A mirthless laugh, a clawed at scab, dull distractions, dull distractions. Sunless sail, wash over me, too vast to see, billowing. And lo, for the earth was void of form and shape, and darkness was all over the face of the deep. And we said, Look at that fucker dance! Come all ye hateful.
3.
With Bruised & Bloodied Feet Incantations penetrate the furthest reaches of the Gods. Not the care of the skies, or revolving stars, Can avail as an excuse to the deities she calls, Day delays to rise on earth, the Sun a mere catspaw. What went we into this wilderness to find? Leaving our country, our kindred, our farther's houses, and for what? At the crux of a baleful knoll, Wicked council, come as one. To live deliciously. To relish in the taste of butter. To be clothed in a fine dress. To fly from this serpent's nest. My corrupt nature is empty of grace, Bent unto sin, and that continually. What went we into this wilderness to find?
