BLOOD FOR THE MASTER (2012)
Quince años avalan la carrera del grupo, quince años en los cuales han tenido que hacer frente a los inevitables cambios de formación y desastre naturales incluidos. Todo ello ha dejado la impronta en un sonido que a lo largo de este tiempo ha bebido de estilos como el death sueco, el thrash y el black, para acabar cuajando en un sonido muy característico. Desde la publicación en 1998 de su primera demo el sonido del grupo no ha dejado de evolucionar para llegar a este "Blood for the Master" en donde pretenden volver a la raíces del metal. Su música suena bastante a thrash, tal vez le falta algún riff más inspirado, tiene también una fuerte presencia del death sueco, sobre todo en la suciedad que intentan imprimir a las composiciones y la voz se mueve en un terrero intermedio entre el death y el black. Son lo que nos queda un disco de metal extremo que a pesar de los intentos de lo contrario suena bastante moderno e influenciado por sonidos más actuales. Buen trabajo de todas maneras que ofrece un buen puñado de temas de excelente metal. (8).
1. Collapse in Eternal Worth 03:40
Frigid souls that can never feel again
Harvesting the dark magic in decay
Falling deeper into this trance of flame
Feeding from this now self worth withered
Dwelling with this worship of demise
This communion of transfer is complete
Passion stirs in waves of assault
Scraping elements sound from the mind
Return these false Gods
To realms of disease
Transit on the rotting
Harvest of the ascending soul
The fall of dominions
Extinction of man
Ascend in this blaze
That engulfs the tyrant
The spirit of twilight
Reclaim this dark power
Digest the archetype
In this verse of hate
This abhorrent manner
Filthy rite of outrage
A trembling coldness
The collapse of reason
Mount the wings of death
Wield the scythe of this ancient craft
Poison heavens in the blackest flame
Rise forth from this decay
Whispered words from these deadly lips
Secured to the pain from this abyss
Untouched by mortal glare
The throne in the void beyond despair
Bound in serpents coil
A final breath beneath this bitter soul
Fractured hands of time
These frozen moments of a sick design
Spoiled with ageless blood
Destroy the kingdoms on the throne above
Rising legion of the damned
Bring forth the holy lamb of the slaughter
Open my wrists
Transcendence
A superb death
A vile custom of perdition
Adorned in this task
The soul of sacrifice
Blood for the master
This age of oblivion
A lifeless endeavor
Frigid souls that can never feel again
Harvesting the dark magic in decay
Falling deeper into this trance of flame
2. When Steel and Bone Meet 03:12
In vengeance the darkness will spread, as these great wings engulf the sun
Birthing this black across golden skies, heavens will burn and the earth will die
Emptied of guidance and hope, burning the wishes for peace
Rising hatred for this false light, terror will be heard across the lands
Procession by virtue of war, bloodstained hands
This fall of creation
Sound this requiem as we ascend, unholy battle until the end
Birthing hatred for the end of gods, crawling praise has come to the end of times
Crush the pious icon of delusion to silence the follower of light
A war machine of this damned cause, take no prisoners without a light
Forever in darkness we shall dwell
No forgiveness for all that have died
Reign of inversion upon the skies
Feasting on blood from the divine
Smashed skulls lie beneath our feet
When steel and bone meet
This war on gods has just begun
Conquest of freedom will be won
Never turn our backs in retreat
When steel and bone meet
Warn the king of the holy, the time has come, the war will be won
And this death shall be the domain for the followers of the crucified one
It's death or victory in out hearts with dead babies at our feet
Superior forms of bloodshed, lead the way for this deceit
The final breath of defiance, a battle to the death
Raise the flag of the damned
Reign of inversion upon the skies
Feasting on blood from the divine
Smashed skulls lie beneath our feet
When steel and bone meet
This war on gods has just begun
Conquest of freedom will be won
Never turn our backs in retreat
When steel and bone meet
3. Parasitic Scriptures of the Sacred Word 03:28
From the great hand of holocaust
Great winds expose the structure of an emptied core
Hollowed thoughts of this vision, this existence turned inside out
Impassive vessel of confined hatred
Deviated catalyst that will reconstruct
The embedded image of the damned, after all is gone
Behold the secret to annihilate
Wormholes fading into regions of death
Unexplained disease that will flood the misfortune of might
Rebirth in this apex of collapse
Defiled idols fall in the ages of decay
Expanding force that consumes, destroying all positive intent
Force of this tragic stride, hell's unforgiving arms
Vortex of merciless decay, untouched by any theory
Suicides from the heavens, sink into the eye of terror
A mound of bodies lie in wrath, reaching the hereafter
Reflection of self denied, the demon that eats the soul
Sunken eyes of fear, a path of forgotten pain
The lifeblood of treason, tasting this bitter steel
Sacrament of disaster, wounds that never heal
This venom of revenge, the judas of black skies
Untouched by divine means, as this earth slowly dies
Machine of destruction, satan's unholy ways
Burning fire of inquisition, a demise of this grace
An art of sacrosanct lust, this rite of virgin's blood
Disguised by confusion, summoning of the demon legion
The kindred of this ruin, awaiting the fall of this order
Diminish into madness of complete death, this sufficient hunger
4. In Deathless Tradition 04:26
Unresolved essence in a tomb of fates
Obscured by beliefs of this divine rank
You beg and crawl for forgiveness, for an answer to salvation after death
Silent prayers to the riddle of purpose, the shepherd of deceit leads into darkness
Trachery has these masses enslaved, the perfect unison in a tarnished faith
Blindly enter this portal of passing, raped desire in a promise of this undying
Forgiveness is the failure of your faith, this need brings the death of the human race
Seek this message in a structure of allegiance, these hidden secrets suffocate the truth
Praise the promised words that seems timeless, stepping off a precipice into disaster
Failed dispute of this longing regret, another shallow attempt of life after death
Consuming this hope of dreams, a gathering of ill-fated souls
Escaping the hands of judgement, an urge to be saved
Chained in snakes awaiting this hunger of the underworld
Drawn down from stellar ideals into the bloodline of curse
Dark times has begun, the existence of failing faiths
Becoming the end of awareness, sealed in this tomb of lies
Embrace the collapse of rapture, dull wishes fall from grace
Failure of this transformation, evolve into the untruth of pain
These warning trumpets have sounded
Devour the dying life force of this faith
Unite in descent towards this mouth of hell
Dreadful entry into the prison of this death
5. Judgement of the Bleeding Crown 03:58
Falling heavens in these black flames
Nothing will be excused from the end
Even the mighty gods will be reaped
Keeping the promise of the final harvest
Painful structure of gratification through massacre, this common ground of perversion
Excavating the blackest arts of desecration, concealed in the chambers of unreason
Gods of this great death hear the voice of calling
Open the sun for bloodshed upon the heavens
Tributaries of origin flooding the harvest of war
Transfixed on the rotting convergence of ascension
A devouring dragon of war, harvest the magic of decay
To be enslaved in evermore, a shallow endeavor of life
Shards of bone
Used to decipher
Unearthly kingdoms
Fading away in fire
Hammer of this ruin, feeding on essence of revival
Denounce the ways of the light, nether planes of existence
Silence falls upon us, in the temple of the unfed flame
Denounce the king of thorns, master of this subterfuge
Bodily desecration
In lavish designs
Sculpting the skin
Into sigils that bind
The raven consumes the entrails of a dove, symbolic transfer into darkness
A hex of purpose for diluted copulation, birthing the great beast of vengeance
Lord of smokeless fire, turning the air to cold
Infect the sky with dark, devour the might of old
Return to the cold earth, born from this decay
Forced to return to it's rot, on this lifeless day
6. Embodiment of This Bitter Chaos 04:44
Vain presence rejoiced, procreate the skill of deception
Enter the shell of flesh, cast from the soil of the cursed
Immoral rise, exiled to the dark heart of this maze
Praise this blood, wield the knife of the slain
Despair if they fail
Feeding on their own
Holding on to past desire
Great lord of death, framework of this reverence
Morbid appeal, descend into unnatural realms
Glorify the sick, forged by this imperfect touch
Sons of hell, praise the order of chaos
Stripped of these wings
On a column of fire
Hollowed of this hope
Tomb of black, prison of this fate
Rotting soul, engorge in unrest
Altered state, emerge as the snake
Drowning teeth, into bloodied flesh
This revenge, on the breath of hungry wolves
Death awaits, entrance into the vault of heaven
This pouring hatred, from the wrist of god's dream
Burning madness, pandemonium breaks free
Witching hour always strikes
Feel the bite of cold emotion
Self absorbed isolation
Grinding fangs, dripping with deceit
Urge to kill, tragedy of life
Wrath and rage, anger will consume
Bound by fire, enter into hell
7. Beyond the Spell of Discontent 04:02
Erratic behavior prolonged in the grip of eternal unrest
Defiant in the accounts of betrayal with hateful guidance
Winds from the abyss have whispers of ruin in their revolve
Enter this wake of reality inside the confines of the beast
The irritable demigods of these endless borders
A forming darkness is waiting to swallow all the stars
Scared ideas that will latch to the dead for answers unknown
Entrance to this stolen soul for the hidden most hated desires
The implosion of fading gods has cause this curse
Screams from a dying nebula will contest to these truths
A deathlike quiet pours into the ears of the mindless
So selfish to think any of your gods will escape the emptiness of this... Colossus
Now the holy names are forgotten and the thunder moans my death
From far beneath the earth, the fires are burning bright
Abandon idols in decay, corroded prayer of concern
Stop the stances of belief, accepting all things to end
An anguish deserved by many, an anguish absorbed by one
With blood we feed the master, like a long trail into darkness
The ghosts of the past keep pushing my fall
To awake the mourning into onyx dawn
An afterlife of delirium, in the middle of the immense and the dead gods
Dismember this umbilical attachment to this secure existence
These massive stone foundations of devotion to the dead
Gravestones for man's failure to cope with the fear of the life beyond
This apparent link of flesh and blood
An art of destroying, forever breaking will
Another version of the epic flood
This time we are all damned with no survivors
8. Death to the Architects of Heaven 03:41
Liberate this hazed vision
Misery of this great untruth
Guidance of this hatred
Creators of the blinding lie
Absolved of this virtue
Reckoning of the innocent
Blessed fabrication
Teaching man to crawl
Onslaught of the damned
Torn from this existence
The death of liberation
On the knees of prayer
Distort this mental salvation
That feeds these laws
Genocide of golden skies
Manifest of dying gods
Annihilation is upon us
Threatening to destroy
Vile words of promise
Freedom paved in ruin
Captured emotion, for the use of this deception
Sworn to an acceptance of this destruction
Gods shall be renamed
Prophecies will be erased
Infected by the human hand
Written plague of restraint
Inversion of the laws
That we most despise
Rip out these hearts
Of this holy disguise
The beating heart of heaven, torn from the skies
Thievery of this concept of grand design
Destroy the revelation of this insolence
Bastard devotion, raped of this virgin sense
The innermost emotion, replaced with fear
Kill this reborn lie
Masters of oppression
The death of a god
Antidote to freedom
Beginning of the end
Failure for all of man
Revealing the truth
Behind the laws that fall
Rejoice in the flesh
Of a bastard design
Sweet taste of insurgence
The beating heart of heaven, falls burning from the skies
9. An End to Nothing 02:49
Bare the guilt of intimate defeat
Only to realize it was a moment of unease
Forced upon mankind, like a sharp knife, twisting inside
Spill this blood of purity, from a slit wrist, ending life
Transfixed on this task, revive the dead, a final breath
Suffer the curse of madness, wake the rotted flesh of the dead
Splintered shards of broken glass, tearing teeth through raw flesh
Revival is not complete, rotten soul of eternal sleep
Summon the phoenix from rest, ignite the ashes of death
Call upon the kings of flame, lend me the spell to resurrect
Inhabit the restored flesh for transition of this timely fate
Manifest this chaos of blood to restore the lifeless and reanimate
Plotting for these final days inside a bastard mold of deathly rage
Another sick experimental stage while kept in this undead state
Like a drop of blood in water
Infecting the clarity of purpose
The time has come to kiss the sun, this life of flame is born of blood
Dissecting thoughts of an ending loss, take the hand of eternal rot
This pain will be forged, under the knife of pestilence
Incantation of this death, cast this the spell to resurrect
10. My Name Is Frightful Among the Believers 04:11
A crown of warfare, a diadem of pain
Count the days of collapse, of these golden realms
Furnace of the bellows, a tempest to make the embers burn
Filling the sky with our screams, merciless mother of storm
Create the enslavement of these tyrant ways
Enter the empty blackness of these final days
Washed away in the tides of this timely hate
Buried in the oceans beneath the sand of decay
Erect this empire from the crumbled remains
Foundation of conquest, upon these soiled minds
Rise from the ravaged, ageless prince of the starless realm
Channel this vision of deviance in the sacred expulsion of man
Charm of this darkness lures us into the void
Out of corruption life emerges to be destroyed
Lord of unknown awake from this timely sleep
Buried far below the oceans and in the endless deep
Purification in ritual murder
Spilling blood for this sacrifice
Spiraling the knife in wounds of lust
Swallowed into the jaws of collapse
The abyss awaits with open arms
Concealing this nature of revenge
Unsettling moment of perversion
Creating this path for the condemned
Intoxicating aroma of death
Embrace the essence to obliterate
A dead man's scream, beyond the cold flame, voiding the mind
Shocking revelations, awake in the night, dulled by the poison of life
Where the shadows gather and the night becomes blood
These secrets within the great abyss, the gnawing fear inside
This is the end, the failure for all of man, a silent voice that descends
Unearthly pale fury, another tragedy of god, awake the horsemen of doom
Out of the abyss we share this fear for the dark, concealed inside
Beyond the light of stars an angry sky breeds the hate for mankind
38:11
