lyrics
Lifted is the curse of sorrow
Fallen are the curtains that blackened tomorrow
Eventuality of the repressive shackles
Another silhouette of the unborn desolation
A respite, an enduring distraction
Bewildering phenomenon
There’s more to what I will become
These burning candles
Lighting the path into the unknown
I follow the flames
Walking through the shadows
Swiftly severing into pieces
This willful torment
And who is to blame
Oh father I have sinned
The impeccable being
What for I have come to existence when all is for obsolescence
Time after time, same old stencils
Betrayal of imagination
Abolishing love and perception of life
Blazing the skies are ought to be
New peripheries, tainting the halls
Burning down a precinct
A labyrinth to the ashes
Birth of an aberrant rage
Enigmas lie right before me
Distinct hypocrisy, blaming for the fall
Redundant is the obvious
A perplex description
Turning into my own nemesis
What I had held dear to me
Taken away in a blink of an eye
There is no periphrasis nor ambiguity here
It’s unrooting all the very fundamentals I lived by
This deceptive oddity, a lost translation
Frames my tribulation
Now I became a stranger to myself
Reciprocating the unjust anomalies of life
Deeming the obscurities of my fate
Seeking the light to come through
Absolute reset in this blind state
There’s nothing to turn to
Hate I welcome you
These burning candles
Lighting the path into the unknown
I follow the flames
Walking through the shadows
Swiftly severing into pieces
This willful torment
That leaves me in despair

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.
Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler
Another scorcher from the phenomenal one-man black metal outfit STARER, with mind-flaying riffs and eerie tremolo-picked melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 31, 2023
Joseph Hawker subverts the musical and sociopolitical status quo with a black metal triptych that's as incendiary as it is impressionistic. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 5, 2022
