THE BROKEN SEAL (2021)
Tercera entrega para este combo inglés, aunque de procedencia polacoportuguesa. Un álbum que ofrece un espectro más amplio en la propuesta a la cual nos tenían acostumbrados, sobre todo en aspecto como un mayor peso del black en las composiciones al tiempo que saben incorporar sonidos y estructuras más reconocibles dentro del metal extremo. La base de death metal clásico sigue estando presente, sonido densos, profundos y asfixiantes siguen poblando todos y cada uno de los temas de este "The Broken Seal", que se ven refrendos por unas voces de ultratumba, sin embargo hay aspectos como el sonido de guitarra que se muestra más dinámico, conservando la contundencia a la que nos tienen acostumbrados, pero ofreciendo en esta ocasión una mayor claridad en los riffs, sin entrar en terrenos melódicos, pero si ofreciendo una mayor versatilidad, capaces de explorar ternos que permiten a Lvcifyre sentirse menos encorsetados. El álbum también se muestra mucho más dinámico en aspectos como los cambios de ritmo e intensidades que van surgiendo a lo largo de la propuesta, con un sonido compacto, sin apenas fisuras pero que sabe incorporar una mayor presencia de riffs de procedencia más metal si cabe, que unido a los cambios de ritmo precisos de la mano de una batería perfectamente engrasado, potente pero también sabiendo ofrecer sustento a la hora de alejarse de lo expuesto en álbumes anteriores. T. Kaos sigue firme en una apartado vocal profundo, en donde la vertiente más death del álbum se muestra infranqueable, sin apenas fisuras. Un tercer álbum, que en definitiva sabe plasmar todo lo anteriormente ofrecido por la banda, sin perder de vista la contundencia y profundidad del un death/black de sonido noventero, sobre todo si hablamos de sus faceta más death, al mismo tiempo que sabe ofrecer cierta evolución hacia terrenos más ligados al black. (7,9).
1. Gods Await Us 04:39
Blood mist — Arise!
The moon is old now
Archaic procession of
Hags of the first kin
To cities long dead
Where the Gods, dreaming
Come through us
Come through us
Cast us
Cast us
Where the Barzai blade cuts the spheres
...to the Destroyer...
Where Gods of fury breathe the war
To Daat'h - Yesod Axis
Cast us
Cast us
Where the Barzai blade cuts the spheres
Waves of fire come!
With the rising of the moon
We paint our faces with sun
Our eyes filled with blackness
Winds spreading Ibn-Ghazi
Now we take the form of our masters
The soul leaps to the space between
Shimmering beyond
Gods await us dreaming
Gods await us dreaming
2. Tribes of Khem 03:16
Evil tribe of Khem
Nephren — Ka
Ruled over them
Great, he brought abomination
And restored the Old Ones' domination
Mankind perverse creation
Defiled the Earth Gods
And their temples in desecration
Sworn to the Great Old Ones, the Evil Lords
With the blood of serpents
By the righteous kings, never subdued
Always rebelled
With teeth in blood ever imbued
Corruption reared its head again
In the land of Khem
Pharaoh brought forth bane
The curse follows the ways of your fate
Evil-driven Nephren — Ka, open the gate!
Atem — Sothoth
Put to flight the foulest demons
Chaos crawling to end all order by his spawn
The Elder Gods — beware!
Azatoth strikes down!
3. Black Beneath the Sun 05:06
Darkness uncoiled
Nourished in night
Old soul — come back...
The old skin awakes
The womb that breeds death
Lilitu — my love
Your fruit is always ripe
Your hips twist with grace
Glide upon the skies
Hide beneath the sun
Black beneath the sun
Dance for me by the moonlight...
...my beloved
Come to my bed
When lamps burn dry
Cool my parched lips with Devil's wine
Witches' nectar flowing wild
Carnal and divine
Black beneath the sun
Black beneath the sun
Shine beneath the moon
Fire blazes upon the spin
The hungry womb unquenched
Prayers like shrieks
Let me enjoy your veil of shame
Your altar so pale I place my lifeblood
Mother...
...the power between Us
...luminous
4. Headless Rite 04:27
Listen...
Listen to the word of a heart which is a tongue
Which has licked the abysmal cunt
Drunk and wet of brilliant blackness
She vomits forth the world
The nocturnal emission of the godforms
As she gazes upon the perfect voidness of its mind
Shaking and coiled in rampant spasms
Nothingness comes to life
Recite the reverberating rapture
From tongue and heart, from mind to world
Shivering in madness, all beings attuned
As we dream and sing of the primordial womb
Yes, the pythoness speaks supremely backwards
Word and thought returning to their silent source
Facing that which is faceless
Contraction of the spoken universe
5. The Broken Seal 05:19
I conjure thee,
Oh Fire
That thou torment, burn and consume
Your pillars feed off altars of blood
Venomous one with a thousand young
Thousand wings
And thousand forked tongues
Thousand blades
Earth in flames
Seer throw the bones
Prophecy cannot be undone
Shadow of the blackest hue
Servitors of the deadly shriek
Fanged mass writhing
With a thousand young
Thousand eyes
Thousand wings and thousand forked tongues
Thousand blades
Earth in flames
Seer throw the bones
Prophecy cannot be undone
Ravish the peace
Below your star I conjure thee
May the Dead that want to see us
May the Dead that want to hear us
May the Dead that want to see us
Come!
6. Wolves of the Great Dark 04:27
May the howling
Bare the blood-red moon
Rise, take the shadowy form
The wolves of the great dark
Born of Az
Where our light is set below
Reveal thyself
Speak to us howling
Arrive, the Hungry One
Open up your gazing eyes
Demon DARK Ahriman
Come forth Ahriman
Come fallen seraph
Hearken and remember
They howl in thy praise
They howl in thy praise
7. The First Archon 05:07
This is my confession
'Tis for thee my sweet couple
Or shall I say, my sound companion
Pour me the wine of Samael
Which venom — like sweetly sear
And so the blood of Lilith
This wine of the wicked taste
There is no God — but the source of my being
My heart holds eternities
Call me that name...
The venom of God
The prime archon — Darkness
SAMAEL! SAKLAS! SA'EL! HVHI!
The dark I suckled...
Her great light made me God
I am Samael
...Samael...
I slithered through Eve's legs
Bringing Cain the Accursed
She looked upon me with terror
But could not flee
Faithless One — you are my child
Deny me not, we are bound by blood
Fly unto me
Fly...
...without fear, without end
To Him who lusted but knew not the shape of his lust
Lilith rises slowly from the earth
To receive him as a clinging vine
8. Blood of Az 03:51
AZ || AZ || AZ
Thou the creation of the Abyss
Thou art boundless flames
Known as Goddess of AZ blood
Ahriman! See!
Awaken and alive
Thou art the Great Harlot
The witches sabbath thou leadst
For many to taste her
Goddess you know and praise
Fall prey to Her shadow
Kissed with motherly caress
With the motion of mind
She bleeds them into Her silver cup
She is the one — Goddess of life and death
Bound to Ahriman
She rides the beast
Antichrist at Her side
Ignorance is dead
I called their names
9. Black Mass 07:21
I transform in blasphemies imbued
I break free, borders bend
Ethos of the meek
Gathered we are
To swear the oath with the unspeakable
To oppose their ways
Come, genocide leaders
I invoke you
Hated heroes of the Iron Will
The Devil's finest
Hail masters of chaos
Who filled lands with awe and fear
Nations wept under your whip
I salute you, King
The Devil incarnate
Gathered we are
In the name of purity
To clean ourselves
With wrongs immoral
Not to inverse — but to reject
Not to conform — but to challenge
Let us bathe in the blood and pain
Of our misdeeds
Lords of hell fed thereof
Hail the carnage of your design
Ever pleasant to the Evil Ones
