Jarak I agree with bmurator. It's definitely a shame these folks never put anything more out. Ah well, I guess life just got in the way 😞

bmurator US Symphonic Black / Death Metal. Unfortunately these guys are no longer a band. It would have been nice t have more as this was a hugely promising debut! Highly recommended!!!

Burning oil and crimson mist Passionately caress my lips Fires burn, splashing auburn across The battlefield And in the shadows in front of me Lies an enemy I cannot see In the grass and in the trees My enemy sets his sights on me Smoke blackens out the sky And in the puddles of blood I see the images of life back home Of where I'm loved, where it's safe, Someplace that's far away from here

Mist pierces down to the bone As the December sun Tries in vain to rise Above the treeline It is here where it all began Where love and hatred wound together Serpentine Trecesson in Morbihan Tend the green in summer sun You arrived in late July With fiance by your side As our eyes had met We new what was to become And that very night All was set to be undone 'Neath starry skies And spying eyes We engaged in carnal romance On dampened moss With clothing lost We threw our caution to the wind It was no sooner than the fall That our excursions had ceased As whispers grew to screams Our secrets were revealed With a hatred so fierce He could not be controlled And that very night would be our last Just as it was fortold 'Neath starry skies And raging eyes He called me to the courtyard On soggy ground Tempest abound Our love was shattered forever With the crack of the cropwhip I fell to my knees And the mud seeped slowly through my fingers As the rain washed blood into my eyes I swore I would achieve my vengeance And you will not know when and will not know how But one day I will find you And kill you right there where you stand And take my beloved back with me

After many years of a vagabond existence I find myself close to you again The opportunity arose I would not let my efforts die in vain The note arrived in your powder room And your curiostiy could not refrain So you slit the wax, unfold the note And thought of that night in the rain Tonight is the night and I feel it in my blood As the whole city gathers for the opera With pistol in hand and whiskey calming my nerves I watch as they arrive at the gala I push through the crowd Though my nomad state of being draws some eyes But it will be of no concern to anyone The instant that that bastard dies With the crack of the flintlock he fell through his knees And the smoke wafted slowly through the silence As rain washed blood into the streets I knew I had acheived my vengeance But you do not know me or the man I've become Even though this day I have found you And killed this man right where he stood But my beloved is not coming with me Running away shedding anguishing tears As his blood gets cold on the ground But all that I see and all that I know Is a hatred, a fervor that cannot be bound And I will raze Paris, I'll burn it all down for you And I will slaughter the innocent, I'll smite them all down for you My offers go unanswered I never heard from you again I listen for your voice I can hear it calling on the wind.

Once there was a large wall That could not be broken Once there was a fire That could not be put out But soon that wall crumbled and the fire gave way to ice The protection from the pain had faded away A man lay unprotected Next to the rubble that remained Exposed to a new world The man went on exploring But what he saw was not what he would expect For the world was cold and harsh A lesson to be learned Disappointment is the only constant Frustration grew as he could not change what he observed that day Fate had played a cruel trick Showing those he could not save The snow started to fall White powder covered the ground Buried the corpses Of the nameless dead The man wanted to scream but a voice that had never been used Could conjure no sound So the man went on his way He searched for others Hoping it was just a dream Wishing for ignorance And freedom He sought to change A fate written in the stars To show that we make our own way But just as a wolf The man howled his sorrow At a dark sky Staring at the moon But never reaching for it For if we never know That something greater exists We may never try to find it After many nights of walking the man reached his wall broken and tired He laid down to rest Closed his eyes and went to sleep A fate fulfilled

Centralia 06:56
Gaze upon Wisps of white steam rising up On the hill Fires burn Kneel down And feel the heat of 50 years Breath deep And smell the stench of sulphurous blight Choke your lungs Burn your eyes Listen close And hear the rumbling sounds below And all was still In the mornings dreary blue light As I stood there Cold and alone Draped in a shroud of sorrowful silence Ruins extend 'long a gray horizon The tides of time have come and gone Washing away all that was Ivy besets the aging stone And shadows grow long in the waning light Effluvium fills the empty streets The air gets cold at the onset of night Draped in a shroud of sorrowful silence Ruins extend 'long a gray horizon The tides of time have come and gone Washing away all that was And I stand atop this hill At the gates of Centralia
