Worsen despacha en este EP de cuatro temas y en poco más de veinte minutos una retaíla de black metal enfurecido, crudo y directo. La música desprende odio y oscuridad en cada nota, gran trabajo de guitarra, distorsionada a tope, sin alardes en cuanto a riffs, la mayoría de ellos se repiten a lo largo del tema, pero sin perder del todo de vista una cierta parte de melancolía y crudeza. La batería suena a mil por hora, programada o no, lo cierto es que se amolda perfectamente a la cadencia de la música y por último tenemos las voces de Rick, totalmente desgarradas y violentas cual persona que estuviera padeciendo. En conjunto el Ep transcurre por una línea continuista de riffs, los temas están cortados por el mismo patrón pero el resultado final logra ofrecer una música plagada de odio y oscuridad, velada en algunos sutiles cambios de ritmo. (8).
Para su sexto larga duración Klyne se ha rodeado de un elenco de músicos por primera vez para poder desarrollar el álbum. "The Epochs That Built the Mountains" rompe un tanto con sus anteriores trabajos, hay un mejor sonido y una menor presencia de instrumentos acústicos para dejar sitio a una música mucho más épica, rozando lo operístico. Las composiciones han perdido ese componente metálico para cargar el peso de la misma en los sintetizadores y si bien esa sensación folk y de contacto con la naturaleza sigue estando presente se han perdido otras, sobre todo la de asistir a la audición de un álbum de black en todo regla. Las voces siguen siendo relativamente variadas con registro limpios y claros en contraposición a otros más agresivos y operísticos, todo muy grandilocuente. Estamos ante una obra mucho más elaborada que se adentra en terrenos sinfónicos, abandonando la crudeza y atmósferas de antaño para dejarse llevar por la vertiente más sinfónica del género. (7,8).
1.Laurentia06:03
Hear now, Great Mother of my land,
Your ghost haunts all that is here, now,
Here, that I call home.
Here - now, Laurentia is upon
The soul of a northern one
Who wishes to know her.
Secrets cast in stone
And locked by the hands of time
Are the only remnants
Of a land lost to the ages.
A stone image of a seafarer
Cradled skyward upon a ridge
Has spoken of my mountains
With an incredible voice
Passing ghosts from the rocks
To my dreams.
Hear now, Great Mother of my land
That you are upon my dreams,
You, great Laurentia!
2.Close the Ocean06:01
Upon this world
Even lands wander
Upon journeys of thousands of miles.
And in this epoch
A great ocean dies
Before the march of the lands' last embrace.
The death of one Earth
In genesis of another
Brings lands closer to what our ages know.
For behold, great forces below
Upend the basin and the mountains now rise!
Land comes upon land
in an old, grand epoch of change.
When all lands are in search of each other,
The seas will yield before their advance,
For behold, great forces below
Upend the basin and the mountains now rise!
3.Rise to the Heavens05:52
Rise to the heavens;
Reach out through time.
When lands collide,
Let the mountains rise.
Rise to the heavens as all lands gather,
Riding the storms within the Earth.
In this brief moment before it seems
That all life will die,
Something beautiful happened,
And my Appalachians rose proudly into the sky!
Long ago, my mountains were the tallest,
Before wind and rain had their say.
But even today, only ignorant eyes
Can look upon these Appalachians
And call them "humble."
For they have borne skyward
The fractured remains of a time
That tell us about the forgotten age
Of a once different Earth.
Rise to the heavens
and unite distant epochs,
For all lands became one
In the moments of your origin.
And bear thee skyward the imprints of ancient times,
For you are the mighty Appalachians,
Old and beautiful;
You are a testament of the Earth!
4.The Last All-Land05:17
Span of the Earth;
Many have become but one
Ancient giant,
For the lands came upon greatness and fused.
And in the middle,
Mountains like none before
Kissed the heavens and stood against
All that time could summon.
Span of the Earth;
Mother of my mountains!
Fire below;
The forge of all epochs!
The Earth above;
The face of eternal change!
The mountains high;
The dreams of the gods themselves!
The greatest of lands
Destined to be torn asunder;
For giants that seem unmoveable
Flow as rivers charging from the mountains.
Span of the Earth;
An old world's ghosts in a new age,
Though the story of my mountains
Is far from ending!
5.Clay Becomes Stone04:51 instrumental
6.The Cycle of Sea and Mountain05:41
Rise to the knowledge of the Earth!
Mountain and sea are eternally tied
In their vortex - a swirl of re-creation -
In an embrace as old as time.
The epochs echo those that came before,
As the sea and mountains sing the harmony of this world.
Rise to this knowledge of the Earth,
For the ground beneath our feet
Changes as do the clouds above
When the fearsome storms gather,
And the eternal marble of the Earth
Shall always persist,
For the mountains flow into the sea
Only to rise again.
From the tallest mountains
Are borne the ocean's depths.
The beauty we call this Earth
Flows as do the rivers,
For in every rock
Distant epochs sparkle
7.Watergap05:08
How can it be
That the river is stronger than the mountain,
The water can move the land,
That the Rain can crumble to boulder?
How can it be?
How can it be
The the river can stand it ground,
And say, "The mountain shall not rise here,
And my course to the sea shall remain,
Unabated"?
For when the mountain tried to give the river
To the heavens, the river cut back down,
Saying, "None shall move me from this Earth!"
But these things are to be this world,
That the river can carve the land,
That this Earth - forever changed -
Changes forever!
8.Withstand the Ages05:51
A miracle are these mountains; they have withstood.
And cruelties many they have defied.
A miracle are these mountains, for they still stand.
The ages spared no hardship upon this tortured land.
Withstand the ages that would see your end.
These mountains withstood; these mountains survived.
These mountains still stand; these mountains still live.
Through endless time, from old Earth to new,
These mountains have stood; these mountains still live.
Ages of sun and atmosphere
Wrought destruction upon these mountains.
Buried and uncovered, with once proud peaks
Rended and cast into the sea, my mountains stand, still.

Segundo larga duración para los suecos después del más que correcto "The Spirit of Warfare" editado hace unos años. El salto de calidad y técnica con respecto a su anterior obra en este "Mythos of the Great Pestilence" es más que notable. Las baterías corren a cargo de Fredrik Widigs de Marduk, la producción viene de mano de Magnus Devo Andersson también de Marduk, con lo cual todo el álbum rezuma un ambiente más crudo y directo, sirva de ejemplo que han abandonado un tanto la inclusión de teclados para centrarse más en las composiciones, en las cuales se ha profundizado en el uso de las guitarras, con mucho más peso en este álbum. Ellos prefieren incluir el término experimental para definir su música, será por la incorporación de algunas ambientaciones folk, algún acercamiento al death melódico, pero sobre todo por lo enrevesado de algunas composiciones en cuanto a cambios de ritmo. Magnus también a madurado como cantante y sus voces están llenas de odio, siempre conservando un plano rasgado y violento. Complicado es de entender que todavía no haya ningún sello interesado en hacerse con sus servicios ya que este "Mythos of the Great Pestilence" bien se merece más repercusión de la que ha tenido. (8,1).
1.Hail Dystopia04:56
Mindless hordes, cogs in the wheel
Break their swords, weaken their steel
Numb their souls have them pacified
As our final goal, their will has died
Watch our generation wilt and crumble
As our culture is scorned and raped
A rootless youth stagger and stumble
With Apathy as their great escape
Gather and march to extinction
Obeying and serving shadow lords
The sheep led to slaughter
Gather and march to extinction
Under the sharpened Damocles sword
To Styx’s cold waters
Hooked on Opiates that weaken their minds
A restless youth the blind leading the blind
Following the lure of the pied pipers tune
Their wills break and scatter with the fumes
Suppress our strong and exalt the weak
Their highest virtue is to turn the other cheek
Feminize our young so they easily break
Should the day come that they awake
Gather and march to extinction
Obeying and serving shadow lords
The sheep led to slaughter
Gather and march to extinction
Under the sharpened Damocles sword
To Styx’s cold waters
The lit beacons of the past
Hail Dystopia
Mirroring the present
Hail Dystopia
A vision for the future
Hail Dystopia
2.The Great Pestilence07:20
Stand guard against their presence
The Omens, the rats and the ravens
Stand guard against evils true essence
Fear is sweet poison for the craven
Lo! Behold their coming
Carrying broom and rake
Wandering from village to city
Silence following in their wake
In his passing some would live
Not so where she had swept
For he who they brought with them
His name was death
The hour is at hand!
Pestilence! Thou hath cometh!
Malevolence! We shape the world in your image
For we are the victim and the weapon
We are the fertile soil and the sharpened scythe
So they have come
And with them our deliverance
So that we may appease death
On our knees in reverence
They are brother and sister
With hunger burning in their eyes
The black soil brings silence
Snuffing out their cries
The hour is at hand
Pestilence! Thou hath cometh!
Malevolence! We shape the world in your image
For we are the victim and the weapon
We are the fertile soil and the sharpened scythe
For we are the victim and the weapon
We are the fertile soil and the sharpened scythe
There are no necks we would not step on
There is no soul we would not make writhe
3.Bring Forth the Dead Man04:07
Some heed their holy calling
To repent, suffer and pray
And march the roads of flagellation
It seems virtue and piety has fallen
As he points and picks where he may
Among the world’s nations
All of our best enchantments
Our finest potions and our spells
What have they become
No! Death shall not relent
Behold the true manifestation of hell
Where sinners succumb
All remedies are futile, for the wages of sins
Miasma! So he appears in the eastern wind
Gather the corpses, pile them up in their mass grave
Bring forth the dead men, to their master all shall slave
Mark the cursed houses, beware the foulness of the air
Bring forth the dead man, bow before his hollow stare
All hope has been taken
Of worldly nature or the divine
There are no healing oils
For if this world is forsaken
And its pearls are cast for swine
Indulge its wretched spoils
And in the absence of god
When pontiffs and priests kneel
To the cross, a fallen scepter
Join in and dance macabre
Fornicate, drink and steal
And embrace the leper
Bring forth the dead man
Bring forth the dead
Bring forth the dead man
Bring forth the dead
Bring forth the dead man
So shall it all end! As he spreads his wings
Miasma! And he appears in the eastern wind
Welcome the piled corpses, dance upon their graves
Bring forth the dead man, we are his devoted slaves
Consume the cursed spoils, inhale the foulness of the air
We have become the dead men and laugh at his hollow stare
4.The Slaves of This World06:14
“And there before me was a white horse
Its rider held a bow and he was given a crown
And he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest”
The crops are withering
And the sun turns pale
The auguries have gone astray
The forests are whispering
The rains turn to hail
As if nature herself turns away
Untangle thy shackles and step forth into the world
Do with it as thou will! The poisoned arrow hurled
All fortifications fall, cross the Danube and the Rhine
The papacy rendered helpless at the sight of his sign
Crowned and anointed
Wretched wielder of the bow
The sharpened arrow pointed
At the kingdoms overthrown
They are the slaves of this world
They are the slaves of this wretched world
Where he rides there is a great anguish
The air will tremble with poison and laments
Even the splendor of Rome will lay ravished
As the impotent clergy pleads and repents
They are the slaves of this world
Fever burns through their veins
And blackness has marked their flesh
Their voices are coarse and strained
At the mercy of the black abscess
The great equalizer, of serfs and knights and knaves
Further into Europe march, unto him they all are slaves
Nations fall to ruin, the conqueror’s banner flies unfurled
As the dead throng the roads to the underworld
For the ravens in black
Austere murder of the cloth
Their faith proved little match
And their flesh fell to rot
They are the slaves of this world
5.Änglamakerskan Hilda Nilsson06:24
Kom oäktingar och bastarder
Kom ni oönskade små
Till Hilda på Bruksgatan fem
Kan era arma mödrar gå
Här ställs inga frågor,
Inga myndigheter lägger sig i
Och modern lämnar Änglamakerskan
Ensam och fri
Hilda bär flickan i sin famn
I en zinkbalja läggs hon ner
Dörren stängs och öppnas igen
Och barnet finns inte mer
Änglamakerskan Hilda Nilsson går ohyggliga bud
En tvättbräda och en kolhink kväver barnets gråt
Och Kroppen förtärs av lågor
Elden bränner kvarlevorna, förkolnar ben och hud
Men ingen ser dem, ingen hör, barnets klagolåt
Om de oönskade ställs inga frågor
Sjutton barn om livet bragt
Till evig vila Hilda lagt
Ve dig stackars arma barn
Som nästlats in i hennes garn
En pojke saknas i Hildas vård
Hans moder slår genast larm
Då uppdagas mörderskans dåd
All dess fasa, vrede och harm
I rätten fördes bevisen fram
Om de barn hon sänt att vila
Hon dömdes möta mästerman
Vid galgbackens inväntande bila
Änglamakerskan Hilda Nilsson går ohyggliga bud
Dömd till döden inlåst på Landskrona Citadell
Förekommer hon sitt öde
Med en linnetrasa runt halsen så möter hon sin gud
Hon finner ingen ro i döden och i hennes cell
Går den osalige döde
Igen
6.On the Nature of Mankind06:12
Oh man he is a horrid beast
The most ravenous of them all
To satisfy all desires unleashed
To every darkness he will crawl
We exploit nature and it’s wild
For no other reason than our gain
We hoard the riches of her defiled
The scorched earth burned again
We exalt ourselves the lords of all
This world is ours to form
And better not as mindless thrall
Seal the fate of things forlorn
Peer through the looking glass
That your eyes may burn by flame
The reflection that the Abyss cast
Is of a beast we can never tame
The state of man against fellow man
Is a perpetual state of tooth and claw
For nature will steer whenever it can
And the state of nature means war
So when reason and desire duel
Shall logic be conquered by faith
For in a reality bleak and cruel
Is illusion the preferable state
We proclaim the exposition
Of our particular tribe or clan
And favor our own superstition
´Tis for “the greater good of man”
The modern world is an Atlas bred
To bear the weight of our warring toll
We swarm the earth as locust spread
To bled it dry and quench its soul
Oh the folly of they who believe
Enlightenment will cure the blind
When the will to exploit and deceive
Lies within the nature of mankind
7.Ethics of the Conqueror05:36
The strong do as they will
The weak do as they must
An iron law true still
When we are bones and dust
This world is a theatre
Where the mighty perform
All will succumb to her
Clad in war torn uniform
And so prepare for the coming storm
The creeds of man bloody themselves
Against their natural peers
To test where true iron lies
On the ideological frontiers
The usurpers and lords who rule
Through myths they penned
Those myths will be unraveled
And this will be their end
The injury done unto a man
Should always be dealt so severe
That from the might of his hand
Vengeance need not be feared
The game of princes unravel
It is in the nature of man
The fallen taste the gravel
The victor claims the land
And rules his foe by force of hand
The creeds of man bloody themselves
Against their natural peers
To test where true iron lies
On the ideological frontiers
The usurpers and lords who rule
Through myths they penned
Those myths will be unraveled
And this will be their end
This austere logic endure
The Wise man and fool alike
In the state of nature
Profit is the measure of right
8.The New Paradigms Outcasts07:59
We spit forth our hatred into the vile mouth of the beast
We scorn the weak sedated that forever slave leashed
We care not for complacency that pacifies the fool
We care not for Christianity and all its golden rules
What need have we for the philosophies
Of an ancient desert tribe
What need have we for authorities
From old forgotten scribes
What need is there for a morality
That condemns man to be a slave
What need is there to bend knee
Until you stumble into your grave
What of the conquerors, the bold men of the past
Shall we just discard them, the new paradigms outcasts
The mighty and the vigorous, shall they forever be replaced
With meek and sobbing men of a bleeding and dying race
Thus the modern man was molded, his virtue torn apart
Left standing, a pallid ghost with a weakling’s heart
What need have we for pacifism
That wrestles the able into submission
What need have we for feminism
And its genderless visions
What need are there for timid ideals
That exalts mediocrity where they can
What need is there to grovel and kneel
Creating a spineless form of man
The madness that spews forth from ivory towers
Turn men into shadows and riddle them with guilt
Ideologies control the meek used by those in power
To maintain illusions upon which their society is built
Good afternoon, thank you very much for agreeing to answer these questions, how are things going for Namrun?
Good afternoon, I was in Namrun recently, its going well there very beautiful scenery, mighty mountains. Caverns where Typhoon nearly destroyed Zeus and castles that belonged to great empires. Many wars fought and dark electricity of the past in the air.
1. The band was created in 2014, why choose to create the band and how were the beginnings of Blliigghhtted?
Well, Emir & Merdumgiriz are always creating extreme music. I wanted to join forces with them to pursue my Kaos worship (Satanism) through their music. We were already working together in Viranesir but Viranesir is not my portal for spiritualism, so I requested we create Blliigghhtted in which I will be the main creative director and they agreed.
2. What are the main differences can be found between the listener and Viranesir Blliigghhtted, Yayla?
In my opinion Yayla is the best band among these and it is very melodic, monotonous black metal/ambient. It is daydream and meditation music with philosophical lyrics that can be used as portals to netherworlds. Viranesir is the craziest in terms of everything, it is impossible to describe its sound because they change the music every album, and subject matter is always very personal and extreme as well. Blliigghhtted is by far the most progressive of all and it is Satanic Black Metal worship. Although Emir and Merdumgiriz compose the music, I tell them what to do and write all the lyrics through which we base the whole thing upon so it is basically my project.
3. Can you explain a little bit the concept that encompasses Blliigghhtted name and why you decantasteis by this name?
Blliigghhtted is the interlacing of Blighted and Light. All came from the darkness of Kaos and all shall return to it and be one. Light represents cosmos but it being blighted means that we are using cosmic tools to represent an unhallowed philosophy; worship the light of Lucifer and follow the father of misanthropy.
4. Already in 2014 edit a first demo of a single issue of half-hour and for your recent "Zeroes" you maintain a similar line in terms of duration of issues, do you think that this time what matters is necessary to provide the ritualistic atmosphere and ceremonial music of your own or due to other reasons?
The demo was to see if we could do Satanic music with these guys and be an original band. I think we succeeded. Released it because it was good stuff, but it was more a test than a real product. Zeroes had a lot of planning involved with a full lyrical concept and long talks before starting recording. As I am the only true worshipper of Kaos within the band, I had a lot of time explaining shit to them to get them in the mindset. Music was not completely planned, as I wanted to conduct it, but 85 percent of it was ready and in line, then we just recorded it and I think it was really successful for what I wanted. I am getting very good at directing musicians and manifesting Satanic concepts through them, especially gifted and smart ones like Emir & Merdumgiriz.
5. The components of Blliigghhtted are three, I think not all related in a direct way with music, how is the process of writing and recording within the group and how you manage to capture the different influences into an album as "Zeroes"?
I give them concepts and texts to study and bleed into their music. They do this very quickly and come back to me. I listen to it all and decide what parts to use and let them know. Then we start rehearsing. Since I am just a half decent keyboard player, I don’t really know what I am doing in terms of all the music conduction but I am sure of what I want and somehow channel it with words and gestures, and since they have a deep respect to me, they try their honest and best efforts to execute it. The good things that come out of it end up being our albums.
6. What bands can you name as a clear influence on the sound of Blliigghhtted?
Not only the sound but also the concept and attitude is Dissection. They are the main band that I like us to base ourselves off from. Emir has a lot of old Deathspell Omega, Mortiis, Burzum influence in him, so as we. Merdumgiriz is more into experimental and progressive rock like Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd and stuff, but he is a black metal worshipper as well and listenes a lot to Inquisition, Beherit, Behexen and stuff like that.
7. Ruhanathanas handles lyrics that revolve around the philosophy, and spirituality and a critical view of society and religion, why these topics are interesting for your lyrics?
Ruhanathanas is I, and I handle all the concepts. Well, I am a Kaos worshipper and base all my life around it, so it only makes sense that a project like Blliigghhtted is going to have those kinds of subject matter. Philosophy, spirituality, society and religion are the main things in which we work with death and that are what all human beings are here to do in my opinion. We are going to continue pursue the life-death duality and everything related to the end through our work, which is directly attacking those subjects.
8. How would you describe the sound of "Zeroes" for someone who still have not heard?
Never ending riffs and psychotic drums juxtaposed with hellish atmosphere and possessed vocals. Highly experimental progressive Satanic black metal.
9. Are you open to the possibility of incorporating new members to offer one day a concert with Blliigghhtted?
Yes, I really want to give concerts one day. But it has to be extreme in all ways possible, I want to make people so fired up that they start riots and satanic chaos on the streets. I want them to go to war and end the world through my concerts. This will never happen probably, but that will be my goal when going on stage if I ever do go on stage.
10. Who designed the album cover and how it relates to music?
It is a watercolor painting done by Emir. I told him to make couple fiercely burning trees in front of mountains of forests. He succeeded. It is an apocalyptic vision that perfectly relates to our Kaos worship.
11. How were your beginnings in music and why did you decide to become a musician? What other interests occupy your free time?
I live like a bum doing drugs and prostituting myself for food and shelter. I practice Satanism and dedicate my life to it in my free time. I seriously hate everyone and everything and want to burn the world, but I do not too many crimes because I really do not want to go to prison. Sometimes I can’t follow that rule very well because of my obsession with seeing things die, but thankfully Emir’s father is a very strong man in Turkey and helps us get through our troubles when things get too intense.
12. Merdümgiriz has dealt with the release of the album, but Merdümgiriz is a more ambitious project, what it is really Merdümgiriz and encompasses?
Merdumgiriz is an outlet for all the works of art that Emir wants to release basically. He makes everything with his hands, t-shirts patches, flags, posters, cassettes, CDs everything. He also releases the works of filmmakers, photographers, sculptors etc. He also recently signed many new metal bands like Sar Nath (Texas), Survival (Bay Area), Finstar (Austria).
13. What future plans do you have for Blliigghhtted of upcoming releases, publications, etc.?
We will release two more albums this year (2015). Both are already finished but you guys will have to wait. The first one is half metal half ambient with cavernous as fuck production. The metal part is way more cheerful and rocky than the previous albums; ambient part is very low-fi recorded with small 90ies keyboards. The second one is way more orthodox, but it’s still very progressive, full on melodic black metal (no keyboards whatsoever) and the best one we did so far. We are already working on the one after that which will be way more melancholic than the previous ones but continue in the vein of the one before that with more tight compositions and production.
14. Thank you very much for taking the time to Black Metal Spirit, if you want to add something for the followers of Blliigghhtted, this is the place. I hope the questions are to your liking.
Thank you so much for all your support for us and the other bands. True underground art never dies, thanks to people like you. Followers of Blliigghhtted, worship Kaos, cause terror, chaos, violence and destruction. Bring the end! Off yourselves!
La banda lleva ya unos cuantos años ofreciendo material de manera más o menos regular pero este "Les larmes du passé" es su primer larga duración, ocho temas de black metal influenciado por la vertiente más depresiva del género. Desde una intro melancólica y triste nos da una idea de por donde va a ir este álbum, canciones que poco a poco van haciendo mella en el oyente debido a su alta carga de desesperación y locura acabando por trasmitir cierto malestar. La música discurre con un ritmo lento y apesadumbrado, con un buen trabajo de guitarras, en general con una preferencia por la melodías tristes y melancólicas. Las voces de Saddy no han tirado por la vertiente de gritos y sollozos desesperados, sino que transmiten esa desesperanza de su música de una manera casi agresiva próxima al sufrimiento, realmente se lo ha currado. No quiero pasar por alto que en 2011 sufrieron la perdida de su batería en aquel entonces, sirva esta álbum de homenaje el mismo, por que a "Les larmes du passé" tal vez le sobre algo de minutaje, pero nadie puede negar que es un álbum muy recomendable. (8,5).
Fog Creature Single 2020
Swords and Sorcery CD 2020
HAIL TO LYDERHORN (2014)
Primer larga duración para la formación germana con un propueta de black agresivo y clásico, con claras influencias del thrash o el doom, que se mueve por terrenos cercanos a Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult, más que nada por la coincidencia de tener un mujer al frente y que para acentuar su aura mística y ocultista, el nombre del álbum hace clara referencia a un lugar próximo a Bergen donde se suponía que durante el S XVI se realizaron aquelarres. "Hail to Lyderhorn" son más de cincuenta minutos de black agresivo e incendiario que como nota destacable tiene unos elaborados riffs de guitarra, rápidos y no exentos de cierta melodía o incluso melancolía que muchas veces funde sus propuesta con el thrahs más visceral. Por otro lado tenemos las voces de Iron Meggido, simplemente espectaculares, manteniendo un registro agresivo y violento, pero que no se corta cuando tiene que gruñir con fuerza, realmente todo un descubrimiento. Con todo esto nos queda un álbum con regusto a clásico que desde el comienzo agradará a la vertiente más tradicional. (8,4).
