lyrics
Nimble bodies intertwined in courtship
Serpents await at the gates
With open jaws and mangled fangs
I can see the glowing, yellow eyes in the dark
A shrill hissing, deep in my minds eye
Should persuade me of retreat
But I must go the crooked mile to cut my teeth
To find myself at the river mouth
This impenetrable heart of darkness
A savage, hollow, empty dream
Where babies are drowned before their mothers,
Restrained by umbilical nooses
The father’s seed is dying fast
Every mortal being, alone in the wild
With aching arms and swollen hearts
Fighting a losing battle
Who will be the better man?
A muscular primitive beast
An abstract distortion of virtue
A complete abortion of value

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2021
