lyrics

From Darkness
Comes Light
The Light brings Fire
Fire nurtures the seed of Spirit
Spirit incarnates as Flesh

This must be dream
A nightmare from which I cannot awake
I find no home in spite of long journey
I know not for what I yearn so desperately
From within this prison

Inverted mirror dimension
Fractal architecture
I must deny all that I desire
Embrace my fears
And walk willingly
Toward my own aversions

It is for love's sake
That I am cursed with this knowledge
That existence is suffering
I know you have blessed me with pain
That it may keep me close to you
And guide me to your side
When all things finally end
For it is far too much to bare
The pain of being
I Am that I Am

Let my Flesh decay
Dissolve the matter caging Spirit
That Spirit may be transformed into Flame
Let the Flames of Ascension burn brighter than the Sun
Burn until nothing remains
But its own clear and silent Light
Let this Light encompass all things
And fall into nothing
Fall into Darkness
To Nothing
To Silence

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

Sounds like the sound track from the version of Disney's Hercules that they screen in hell. Ghuughra
