lyrics
The burden of hope
At the end of this dying storm we’ve just become strangers. And the fire that once purged the earth vanished and became so obsolete. How time fades - like it was nothing. I descend from our heaven, the kingdom of our hearts. All that we had in common - a blast from the past. And so it ends - this golden time of affinity. Our bond, a fragile structure. I know you too well and still know nothing about you. Whatever happened to us - stored in our memories. I (still) feel the wind in our hair, the moments when we were close. All these hours spent in unison. I never thought that I could be without you. And so we’ve reached the sky of our own demise. Everything I saw in you gone and lost forever.

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
