Michael Daimon There is an Emperor-like vibe in these songs. I love it! Definitely should be in everyone's black metal library.

Matt This entire EP starts out really great and familiar, but then gets experimental with the synths working VERY well to create an unholy atmosphere. Just gets better and better each song! Living in Ohio (cold, cornfields, and catholics), it's important to have good black metal like these guys around \m/ Favorite track: As Mourning Descends.

Terra Mater 04:45
For thousands of years We have infested this great sphere Now she awakes To reclaim all and to forsake Terra Mater take my hand and walk with me to the valley of the dead Release me from your bosom Eyes ablaze with hellfire for the hatred of all men Return me to place where I once came Throughout the age of man We have plagued the earth Venom flowing in our veins It is her turn now To unleash true and miserable death Upon the vermin and existence of the wretched horde For thousands of years We have infested this great sphere Now she awakes To reclaim all and to forsake

Pledge The Obolos upon the dead Acheron is not the terminus Sacrament Decorous Ignite the funeral pyre Descend into Acherusian Shades of the dead Beckon the ferryman Charon and his skiff Traverses souls through the river Styx Head to the realm of Hades Judgement for eternity Progeny of night and darkness Progenitor of Thanatos and Nemesis Elder than Gods Death demon Charon and his skiff Traverses souls through the river Styx Head to the realm of Hades Judgement for eternity He of the keen gaze And charming epithet Unclean, hollowed eyes and sunken cheeks Corpulent creature Hooded cloak, crooked nose Silent beast, bringer to the afterlife Pledge The Obolos upon the dead Acheron is not the terminus Shades of the dead Beckon the ferryman

Supremacy Of the flesh Omnipotence Wrought from the darkness Insurrection through the depths Forbid this mortal coil Pain and Suffering Overtures of Strength and will Reign through Chaos Supremacy Of the flesh Omnipotence Wrought from the darkness Insurrection through the depths Lightbringer Harbinger Fill the void With knowledge from the afterlife This....human shell Primed for the cosmos Flames burn within Darkness heartens thee Absolve yourself from the false light of gods Endure the facade Conviction not in gods Only through death will you be free Judgement of your dignity No man will ever see what you see Purge the might of the blackest night Unleash your mind from your faded plight

Cavas Corpus 06:11
My final voyage is upon me I long for the end The end to this pain My spirit will be free Cold, so cold Winters hold Misery Agony For too long I have suffered Bore this vile life Putrid soul Revered by death Cold, so cold Winters hold Misery Agony Nothing left to hold on Cavas corpus Shattered core Bring me the end Cold, so cold Winters hold Misery Agony This frail existence Painful calamity Sorrow is all I have caused The shroud of contempt has forever shadowed me Cold, so cold Winters hold Misery Agony I reach my only decree For dusk to welcome me Rivers of blood, life and soul Are coursing away from of me Pain no longer exists Death the only relief The cold steel sanctification Cutting deep into my veins

The end is here The last chapter has been written I now leave this cold place My soul bleeds out I say no farewells This path now ends As Mourning Descends This life’s been cold And the road has been long There will be nothing left To remind you when I’m gone I care not to see The suns golden rays I will not be there To meet its warm embrace Life’s cruel fate Tell those that care Death has savoured My finale fare I reach out to the darkness To welcome me Life abandoned Ashes of a lifeless corpse Is what will remain Ignite the flames
