In distant realms obscured by fog
Is a growing evil force
Gaining power from the blood
Of the people of the earth.
Ascetic to the sanguine oath,
Night's coven now assembles
To drink the blood of sacrifice
Beneath a godless sky.
Dichotomous existence
Of death and life as one.
Night falls on all of us.
Vampyric bloodlust.
In the secrecy of dusk,
They arise from the crypt
Drink the blood of mortal men
And consume their souls.
Fangs sink into your flesh.
Blood drains from your veins.
Now your skin begins to pale.
Transformation is complete...
Dichotomous existence
Of death and life as one.
Night falls on all of us.
Vampyric bloodlust.

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
