MALPHAS (2016)
Nuevo lanzamiento para la one man ban estadounidense Malphas que este EP homónimo entrega seis temas que podemos encuadrar dentro del un black en donde se combinan elementos del black y el death. Por el artwork de este Ep, uno puede llegar a pensar que se va a encontrar una banda de black atmosférico, influenciada por elementos de la naturaleza, pero lo que ofrece aquí Lord Moloch es una música más directa y brutal, que le deba bastante a estilos como el death. Si bien el comienzo de "Wanderer of Dark Woods" es algo más sosegado, rápidamente los dobles bombos y las voces guturales cobran protagonismo y se van erigiendo en una constante en todo este trabajo. Un trabajo que resulta también variado, dejando lugar para partes más melódicas en algunos lugares y para incorporar distintos registros vocales, en una música que logra transmitir una ambientación antireligiosa y de fantasía. En definitiva, estamos ante un trabajo que sobre todo sorprende en cuanto a contundencia y que se sitúa a medio camino entre el death y el black, con algunas influencias melódicas y ambientales.

1. Wanderer of Dark Woods 04:14
Deep in dark woods
He wanders this realm
Solitary existence
Imposed by the Ancients
He lives in exile
Imprisoned by enchanted oak
He plots his escape
Twisted shape of evil
Cast from the world
Spawn of forbidden coitus
Hidden and forgotten
He sits on frozen slopes
Dreaming of the outside
A world he’ll never know
He weeps for his lonely
Existence
Nightfall comes, the hour is near
A sacrifice made on mountaintop altar
Ruinous powers hear his plea
Ancient ones break his bond
Pulled into a swirling vortex
Beyond the mortal realm
What has he done????
Soul trapped in the abyss
Abused his call for freedom
He is now a slave
WANDERER OF DARK WOODS
Now he longs to return
To his isolation
Trapped by enchanted oaks
Hidden and forgotten
2. Infernal War Hymn 03:54
Pounding hooves of legion’s feet
The mortal world trembles
Ranks are clad in darkened mail
Spewing forth from the portal
Humans flee before the horde
Moloch flies above on wings of black
Lucifer controls the mortal realm
The infernal legions claim the ruins of man
Enslaved to horned masters of darkness
Humanity slaves away
Erecting altars of tainted glory
Clad in dark mail
The legion crushes rebellion
Twisted spires reach toward the sky
The dark lord’s majesty
Dark beasts roam the moral realm
Their twisted new home
3. The Necromancer 05:29
Outlawed by royal decree
In the third era of the covenant
The practice of reanimating the dead
Necromancy
Punishable by death
Clad in robes of black
They meet in darkness
Under mountain peak
NECROMANCER
Forbidden black art
Raising those long gone
From ancient burial ground
Banished from the world
Shades and spectres dancing in pale moonlight
Ancient decree of a weak king
Makes the dark art forbidden
Meeting in the night
The spells are cast
Legions of undead called forth!
4. Devoured by the Swarm 04:34
Descending down from the sky to devour worlds
Consuming flesh to feed the fleet
And build the swarm
Sending forth the horde to digest the world
Creations designed to kill
All will fall before the biologic terror
Will of the hive mind conquers all
Mighty tyrant leads, the lord of the swarm
Giant armored beetles break down their walls
Mankind’s marines can’t hold them back
The finest of Terra
Dragged to the pools for digestion
Nutrition sent back to the fleet
Devourer of worlds
Reinforcements come
In pods from the sky
Came to reclaim a dying world
They came too late
The planet is dead
All slaughtered
At the drop sites
Devourer of worlds
