I, devourer of souls,
Once life giver, Now death bringer,
I, Nephthys feed on
Lamentations for the dead,
Plead your innocence - I will laugh,
And you shall rot,
And we shall dance
On the corpses of those In the Lake of the Dead,
On the corpses of those In the Lake of the Dead
Demons tremble before me,
I weigh their hearts against my own
All men shall die before me,
The fields will accept no mortal souls,
Oh fearsome one, have you forgotten what once you were?
The revealer of that which hides In moonlight,
And ferries the souls of virtuous men?
In this realm of the dead that I've envisioned,
Plead your innocence and we shall dance
In the Lake of the Dead

Under Darkness

Stealth, shadows, devious perfection,
This is the way of the Drow
In darkness steel is drawn,
We march to war!
Battle-lust, sadistic glee,
Red eyes glow in blood frenzy,
Lightning strikes and acid melts
flesh and bone and several of our
Own blades bite, swords rend flesh
Screams of agony fill the air
defences are breached - death so swift
Victory is ours this night!
My whip gashed throats, sword drew blood
Until I found the chanting circle,
Blinded in a flash; easy killings,
One by one before I ripped the Matron's tongue!
Traitors turned, left their dead,
Children burned, A horrific end.
No Survivors - what place is this that is my world?
I, Zaknafein, renounce my kind, bring death to us all!

Coagulating Darkness

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

Australian Melodic Death Metal. Definitely one of their best! I have been following them practically from the start & these guys can do no wrong! I have everything of their but I need it on bandcamp too... :) As Kobina already said, I want this on my deathbed too - hell, I want it at my funeral also! Unbelievably good music! FFO Insomnium & Omnium Gatherum & the like. Highly recommended!!!

Söngvar elds og óreiðu

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long!
