What lurks behind the walls
Inside the space between the worlds
I wonder and dream of this
The shadows contained in that abyss
I feel drawn to the dark
And am compelled to obey
Mystery evades me
But we must find a way
To touch the night
To reach past the thresholds
Of this earthly plane
To see what is not..
Seen..
To know the unreal
What's obscured and what's never known
That few have dreamed of
That cryptic space in between
In lucidity now I drift away
On a dreamlike quest of thoughts
To find what it is I seek..
The knowledge..
What shifts under the surface?
How is it we came to be
A flux of depression and depravity
That persists eternally?
Between the realms..
These worldly things
Seem illusory,
I concentrate on the passage-
I see the gates before me
Tall and grim
None live within its chasms
Yet there is life
Mysterious
That breeding light in the darkness
The haunted reverie of drifting in time..
What shifts under the surface?
How is it we came to be
A flux of depression and depravity
That persists eternally?

The first time I heard this band was off their Heir of Ecliptical Romanticism, and I remember the riffs being the highlight of the album. This album is no different. The band just has a fuller sound with better production these days. Many of their tunes here remind me of early Satyricon. The classic heavy metal influences really make those riffs stick in your brain. Bart

Some of the best raw black metal I’ve heard in a while. So many infectious riffs it’s absurd. Easily my favorite release from lamp of Murmuur. HyperboreanFrost
