Hunger drives the beast.
(The world aches with indifference.)
The wolf and the chariot in the sky.
(A world of envy and decadence.)
Blood on the hands of the high priest.
(On its oblivious final days.)
Let it rain, let it fall.
(Let the demons screech and crawl.)
Sköll unleashed awaits.
Mistress of the deep
Drag the carcass.
Lay the horses to sleep.
May your feet go faster
And your body be filled with strength.
May you feast on the flesh
Of your eternal prey
Sköll, unleash
Thy rage complete.
Ragnarök is upon us,
Not by water but fire.
Treachery to spread mercy.
(Set your eyes on the sky.)
A fiery arrow from the abyss.
(A condemnation to unify.)
A burning planet, so otherworldly.
(A scorched land to glorify.)
Let it pour, let it fall.
(Let the weak screech and crawl.)
Sköll, unleash
Thy rage complete.
Set the Sun toward us
To cleanse us by fire.
Our end awaits.
We understand our fortune.
Maybe liars, thieves and beggars
Rowing in shame.
Maybe saviours, healers, and leaders
But all incomplete.
The course is set to free all our suffering.

Pantheist ne m'avait guère passionné jusqu'à présent, mais cet album m'a pris par surprise en réunissant ce que le funeral doom peut être à son meilleur : solennel, majestueux et mélancolique sans jamais sombrer dans la pleurnicherie. Meilleur album du genre pour cette année. Barbo

Very lush expansive doom, lots of different arrangements and choral vocals, slow and sad and full of regret. Extremely high quality stuff. Sounds like a life’s work. Also quite heavy. Jono Schneider

Absolute perfection in its genre. If you are emotional like me, you will end up crying while listening to this album. It really touches the deepest strings of your heart and soul, a gem of doomy epicness, wonderful in every part. My most favourite 2014 album. Grewon
