PERDITION (2020)
Primera entrega para este combo sueco, cuyos dos integrantes vienen de una propuesta heavy por un lado mientras que por el otro su procedencia se remonta al periodo 1996-06 al mando de las guitarras en Setherial. Después de editar su primer single "Luciferian Dawn" que se encarga de cerrar este "Perdition" podemos decir que se las han arreglado para entregar un álbum de sonido black sinfónico, inspirado en lo más clásico del género al mismo tiempo que han sabido dotar a sus sonido de elementos épicos, variedad y dinamismo. El álbum en conjunto suena bastante fluido, sin embargo no se hace rimbombante ni empalagoso en exceso, hay abundancia de cambios de ritmo y las orquestaciones que pueblan el sonido de "Perdition" muchas veces se usan como elementos ambientales al inicio y al final de los temas y cuando lo teclados hacen acto de aparición logran aportar un tono mucho más épico al conjunto. Las voces se adaptan muchas veces a un sonido más clásico dentro del black, pobladas de gritos y rugidos aunque hay que destacar la presencias de algunas voces femeninas y pasajes hablados que solo conllevan una mayor variedad, ambientación y dinamismo de los temas. La propuestas no se limita a ofrecer una masa informe de sonidos rimbombantes sino que los cambios de ritmo se muestran muy logrados, con un ritmo variable en función de la batería que cumple tanto en las partes más rápidas y directas como en las más lentas y contemplativas con un fluidez envidiable entre ambas. Lo riffs si que es cierto que muchas veces se limitan a ser lo más avezados en cuanto a velocidad y vituosismo, sin poder descartar algunos tonos de corte death melódico, pero áun así, a veces dejan asomar la crudeza más fría del black. Un primer álbum que se mantiene fiel a las influencias del black sinfónico pero que también sabe mostrar un sonido épico con ciertas características death. (8).




1. Perdition 04:46
  Into the everlasting mist,
Within the darkened shroud
Where shadows drain out souls of life
Behold, the sirens of your ruin
Damnation and decay
Unveiled, the path to Hell awaits

Storms gather and fire rains
Blood is calling and angels slain

And when the final breath is drawn,
The light of life forlorn
The darkness swallows earth and sun
Behold, the symbol of our doom,
Perdition and demise
At last, the gates of Hell flung wide

The gate is open

I call the dark lords, hear me, rise
I summon thee, hear me, rise

The gate is open and Hell unleashed
Rise
2. Into the Void 04:36
   I hear Thy call, I see Thy path. Damnation, I welcome Thee
The freezing wind guides my soul towards Thy harrowing mouth

Into the void, the abysmal gaping maw, where all is naught
Deeper, further, into the chasm. I descend the dismal lair

And within the darkened chambers, I feel Thy presence
In awe, I gaze into Thy kingdom infernal
Upon the shadowed throne, fear and nightmare incarnate
In reverence, in willfulness, my sacrifice will set Thee free

Unhallowed, profane. I bleed from opened veins
Blasphemy, disdain. I call for Satan's reign

Atrocity, beset my soul, give me strength to rip the veil
Possess my flesh and dance upon the oblivion trail

Into the void, the abysmal gaping maw, where all is naught
Deeper, further, into the chasm. I descend the dismal lair

I heard Thy call. I saw Thy path. Damnation. I welcomed Thee
The freezing wind led my soul into Thy harrowing mouth
3. Beyond the Veil of Mist 07:37
The frozen winds whisper my name, the gathering of wolves, the night reclaimed In soltiude. I venture forth into the vast unknown, forever in darkness The still within the freezing storm, a temple of old, a sanctum forlorn In solemn woe, I raise my voice and recite the ancient tome, beseeched by the shadows Far beyond the veil of mist, where angels fell, where demons dwell Clear the path ot the abyss, from where the monsters hail and spirits wail Guide my steps inside the maze, where madness lure, where hate is pure Across and through the gates of Hell, where life is forlown, where evil is born Hear me, see me The sky turns red from fire and flame, a crimson display of heaven ablaze With somber scorn, I gaze upon the empyrean blaze, the raging inferno Heaven ablaze, a rain of ashes, drowning the world, a rain of blood I summon ancient fire, I call abysmal rage Fulfill my dark desire, tear the sky a thousand shreds The darkened horde assembles, to bring an age of hate I summon ancient fire, burn the world, bring forth the end Heaven ablaze, a rain of ashes And angels will weep, a lament for the world, at the end of times, at the end of life And Satan will rise to lay claim to the earth, then Death will come, death of the light I summon ancient fire, I call abysmal rage Fulfill my dark desire, tear the sky a thousand shreds The darkened horde assembles, to bring an age of hate I summon ancient fire, burn the world, bring forth the end Far beyond the veil of mist Clear the path to the abyss Guide my steps inside the maze Across and through the gates of Hell Hear me, see me  
4. The Black Wraith Ascends 01:37   instrumental
5. On Dark Wings They Soar 04:57
  The darkness befallen, in nocturnal decor
The shadows bedeviled, aflight, on dark wings they soar

Spirits of darkness, unbound, prowling the night
Under the starless sky, breeding malice and blight

From the shadows, whispering spite
From above, on dark wings they soar

The Devils spawn, the Banes of War
Ablaze, on flaming wings they soar

"How you have fallen from heaven. Morning Star"

Son of the Dawn, veiled in shadow
In darkness cast to dwell
Bringer of Light, fallen from grace
Ascending the fires of Hell

Spirits of darkness, unbound, prowling the night
Under the starless sky, breeding malice and blight

From the shadows, whispering spite
From above, on dark wings they soar

The Devils spawn, the Banes of War
Ablaze, on flaming wings they soar
6. The Presage of Eternal Fire 04:38
  Let the ritual commence, my blood and soul sworn to the darkness
Let my gift be received and blessed, my sacrifice, my vessel possessed

Unholy rites, bring damnation
Unhallowed souls, come forth and bring us the end

Let my body be your sword, my mind and soul worn as your armor
Let my voice speak your words of hate, and with flaming eyes, I open the gate

Unholy Lords, come forth and bring us the end

Satan, Lucifer, Belial, Leviathan, come forth

As darkness falls over moonlit moors, the haunting winds begin to roar
In awe of night I stand to raise Hell itself and set the world ablaze

In nomine dei nostri satanas
I am the herald. I am the path, I am the presage. I am the wrath
7. The Fall of the First 03:33
 Once held highest, the first among angels, anointed Son of Dawn
Cast out of Heaven, shunned among his kin, bereft celestial light

Oh, how you have suffered. How you have been wronged

The fallen angel, with wings torn and a fate forlorn
The first forsaken, from Heaven scorned, the fallen star of the morn
Spread your wings. Bringer of Light, in darkness you will be reborn
The fallen angel, with wings torn and a fate forlorn
8. Luciferian Dawn 06:16
Unchained, the Darkness slowly grasp my soul Cold and fierce, it claws into my flesh Within the circle drawn in blood, I face the Devils spawn Summoned, unleashed, To wage war upon the world Fire and flames, infernal madness set ablaze Charred and scattered, the ashes of my enemies Whirling through the burning sky, I stand before the gates Heaven albaze The bones of angels crumbling under my feet Lay low the ramparts, Unleash the hounds of Hell Hold high the banner And march in the name of Satan And lo, the birth of a new era The dark, eternal night embrace the world, veiling all in shadow and gloom And raised is a throne of stone, glowing with the embers of Hell And the Lord of Darkness, Lucifer Himself, sits thereupon, reigning His new kingdom And the scent of burning flesh is ever present, The putrid stench of rotting angels and mortal men Luciferian Dawn Fire and flames... Lay low the ramparts...
