ARCANA, SCRYING AND REVELATION (2020)
Tercer larga duración para los australianos que entregan otro álbum de sonido característico dentro de un sonido que han forjado desde sus inicios, que viene del thrash/black a cada vez incorporar más elementos que podemos encuadrar dentro del rock o el NWOBHM. El sonido de este álbum se sustenta principalmente en los riffs dinámicos que nos ofrece, pasando de los más directos y veloces que dejan un regusto a thrash, a otros mas melódicos que beben directamente de un rock/heavy y que nos aporta un tono melódico a las composiciones. La batería a creado un interesante dinamismo a lo largo de todos los temas manteniendo el pulso entre la velocidad y la agresividad con partes más lentas y épicas. La inclusión a las voces a Proscriptor McGovern aportan un mayor contraste y variedad a las mismas, desatado en una suerte de gritos violentos unas veces, con un regusto a sonido clásico oscurecido otras cubriendo un amplio espectro de registros que casan perfectamente con la música. El álbum convence desde ese estilo ambiguo que pasa de puntillas por registros black pero que sabe construir partir de estilos clásico un álbum que emana un alto porcentaje de oscuridad y ocultismo en una evolución constante de la banda a lo largo de estos años. (8,2).
1. Suffer the Witch to Live 06:06
I
When the church bell rings twelve and the air is still and cold
When mists rise and hearts beat slow: forthcoming to the death
Naked under the night sky, anointed over the harridan Virgin hazel, virgin knife: bless the sacrament!
Repeat I
II
A lone, consecrated circle
Goads of power
Barrier of heaven and earth
Channeled catalyst of power
That nobody may ever change
The whip
Three strikes
The scourge
Seven more
Twenty-one
Nine
The blade of purification
Exalted, august and ordained!
III
Un-beholden with the gawking of new eyes
Eroticism unfastened and whispered to the moon
There is no regard, no reverence of nature’s law or man’s
Piscean suffering, affliction and denial: no more!
IV
Final craft aeon of the wise
Time, space and matter: transcendence
Mother of fancy, mother of the gods
You shall suffer the witch to live
Austere bearers’ of the cross
They will suffer the witch to live
Mother of fancy, mother of the gods
You shall suffer the witch to live!
2. Fate of the Grail Pt. I 04:53
I
Emblematic of wisdom
The keepers and bringers
Nahash advised they could consume the apple
The conveyors of enlightenment
They fought the suppressors of learning
Bathed by starlight, cloaked in forest hue
Pushed into a vast knack of heresy
A legacy…warped by liars: strained by swindlers!
II
Essence of the lily, blood of the dragon
The Lunar essence that fed the kings
The great Sangreal running through time
The binding agent of the mighty ring!
III
In swan-feather coats they strode
Kings and queens of the Grail
Labeled as witches and criminals, of sexual prowess, of warrior spirit
Wisdom of the intrepid beast!
IV
Ladies of the fountain: denigrated as whores
Fey folk, they swing them to the myth
Pendragons carrying fairy blood
Jealous swine of the Eucharist!
3. A Magician's Prayer 05:22
I {A}
DAWN: hailing to the East
RA: I rejoice unto thee
An acknowledgement
To separate me from the cattle
As they bask in banality
I synchronize with the sun
A connection between the worlds!
I {B}
NOON: hailing to the South
HATHOR: I rejoice unto thee
I gaze upon the logos that bind us all
Whilst others sigh as they fail to see
Satisfied with mediocrity
They dare not question
Empty vessels ripe for command!
Chorus
Four hails and foresight
All elements are aligned
Eight lauds of enchantment
A traveller’s plight
Four hails and foresight
Grant me thy strength
For this mortal fight!
II
DUSK: hailing to the West
RA: I watch you depart
Looking on in adoration
Consumed, they are possessed
Their spirits strangled by a material noose
Flesh and bone, but nothing more
Four hails and foresight
O’ great ones
Shine upon me thy light!
III {A}
MIDNIGHT: hailing to the North
KHEPHRA: guardian of the evening sun
I give thee gratitude upon my rest
Visions of great magnitude: my dreams ensue
Multitudes of swine ignore the oracles
Magnitudes of slumber are entirely revealed
Four hails and foresight ¬
A MAGICIAN’S PRAYER
I give you; I give you, yet I give you my life!
III {B}
Artium Magister hails to the Boreal
Sirius guards the dimensional, fundamental sash
Four hails and foresight ¬
A MAGICIAN’S PRAYER
I give you; I give you, yet I give you my life!
4. Fate of the Grail Pt. II 06:03
I
The land of Elphame: no mere phantasy
Beyond the portal twilight of this blemished world
Neglected by the besmirched orthodox
But the collective memory burns boundlessly bright
Of the Sumerian and the Scythian times
(An) abiding symbol, the one who clutches its own tail
Cup of the waters for the great Sangreal
Condemned as the mark of Cain, yet a true mark of sovereignty!
II
Defaced Fisher kings, monarchs of the grail
Bloodstained Fisher kings, priest-kings marred by the hidden light
Adepts of steel and deft of sorcery
Return: Return to reclaim your right! (Now)
III
Dragon kings anointed with sacred fat
Moving upon the waters of time
Feeding upon maternal blood
The nectar of supreme excellence!
IV
Kingly lines rotted and warped
The new overlords perverting the course
Grail kingship denounced
A ringed halo or a noose?
V
Mighty ones of Gaul
Kingship by blood not by man's decree
Mighty ones of Gaul
Kingship by blood not by man's decree!
5. As a Being Undead 05:21
I
Matriarch of death, nightmare and revulsion
Of all things wild and winter
Denied paradise to walk the earth alone
And whisper to the dreaming…to the pensive men
A delicate white corpse will be uncovered today
Splinters of spectres will un-station through tonight
Of all fixations crazed and withered
Matron of dying, nightmare and repulsion!
II
Possession of all will, secrets and illusions
Influence to love or madness
Reveal the past and future, guard of the unknown
Treasures, misgivings, honours and betrayals!
III
The astral remains of a violent end
Talisman of unused vitality
No longer chained to the earthly plane
Doomed, eternal wraith!
Repeat III
IV
Just as the brook horse leads its rider in
CURSED AS A BEING UNDEAD
Harmony within the hours, days and moons
CURSED AS A BEING UNDEAD!
Repeat IV
V
Departed, yet still no rest
CURSED AS A BEING UNDEAD
Communion with the stars, all time and space
CURSED AS A BEING UNDEAD!
6. What the Cards May Tell 06:09
I {A}
Why does the Zodiac affect
Why a moon’s tide or transit
A flight of the stars spell malice!
I {B}
Why a cleric’s prayers unheard
Why are the supplicants tortured
Penance to a star chained…
Mortification!
II
A virgin’s blood-born eternity
As the crucifix comforts the fool
While the wolf tears at the veil
And plays the cards as they lay!
III
Portent of the altered beast
A warp spasmodic omen
Blast from whence all life sprang
Ring the bottomless caldron!
IV
Staring to the firmament
WHAT THE CARDS MAY TELL
Eden, or living hell
WHAT THE CARDS MAY TELL!
Repeat IV
V
Theatre of the night void
WHAT THE CARDS MAY TELL
Eden, or earthly hell
WHAT THE CARDS MAY TELL!
7. The Whispering Void 04:45
I
Hidden by a screen of time
Maybe never penetrated
A veil waiting to be broken
O’ NIHILITY
Gashes of man’s former life
Secrecies locked and concealed
The bones of past generations broken
O’ NOTHINGNESS
Each more ancient than before
Yet origins still shrouded in darkness
The whispering void it called broken
O’ NONENTITY!
II
Out from the dark, they came from the torpid dens
Builders of dynasties and civilizations
Mastering their domain, a fire was growing within them
A whispering void it called!
III
He gained power of the beast, but it was his will to control the bending, desired forces of nature
To answer his every command, every mandate, he finally crossed true power revealed to man!
