The eternal outcast
This forever failure
Tired eyes greet a desolate dawn
Life's ardour long since snuffed out
The embers cool
For a life devoid of purpose hold no hope of change
The melancholy heart bleeding
Aimlessly wander this trail of perdition
Misfortune always loom in the horizon
Peace will only come under a funeral shroud
This is but a feverish nightmare
The torment of the hell that imprisoned me
A dismal melody in the core of my being
Echoes ever on
A plague inside
Echoes ever on...
The fire died
Bleak autumn in my soul now reigns
Cover me in your desolate cold
Let the dissonant waves of despair wreak havoc on my mind
Until the hold of sanity slips beyond recall

Dethroned
Brought so low
I fall ever deeper below
No man remains unbroken before this
This impending trial
The weight of the years in silence
Leaving etchings engraved into flesh
Marks that will not vanish
Around your throat hangs the noose
The one that will seal your fate
A cruel grasp on the spirit that shattered
By the weight of the years in silence
The abyss is calling
Singing nightly serenades
...and you answer its siren call
The cavernous despair engulfs me
I am without regret before this
As I become the author of this ending
Closing the final chapter
Let it all come to pass
Reap now the harvest of grief
Walk the dark path laid out before you
Heir to misfortune
Forever the dweller in shadows
Your end now draws near
Your wait comes to a close
Let this one last sunrise
Fill your weary eyes
Grieve not this departure
This ending of despair

Desolation

Downtrodden I am become
Broken... undone
Wallowing, endlessly wallowing
In these black thoughts that devour me
Forgotten, bereft of all but grim despair
This desolation of being
Can you even remember the moment that set you on this course?
At what crossroad was the wrong path taken
That lead towards this ruin
That fulfilled this emptiness
Left bare this mortal coil
Can you see the hope that lies dying?
In the deepest hollow of life
Beckoned by the endless vastness
...and the echoes of despair
Still rage within me
Drowning in unceasing torrents
Falling into the deepest chasm
All light long left behind
How familiar this state of existence
The futility of resistance
Days lost to the twilight of youth
Can you see the hope that lies dying?
In the deep dark hollow of life
The yearning to shed this mortal coil

Bleak Autumn, Pt. II

Jag ser ett landskap så vackert
Under en himmel, blek och kall
Det förtäljer en lögn
Det fyller mig med dysterhet
Dess fägring blott en påminnelse
Om livets förgänglighet
Likt frosten som täcker marken
En dödande kyla min själ förtär
Inget finns bortom denna förtvivlan
I denna hopplöshetens boning
Likt ett irrbloss i natten jag vandrar
Ett öde för evigt beseglat
Stormen som aldrig passerade
Vinden som viner i sinnet
Den eviga kampen mot sig själv
Melankolins obevekliga kall
Jag ser ett landskap så vackert
Under en himmel, blek och kall
Som förtäljer en lögn
Det fyller mig med dysterhet
Dess fägring blott en påminnelse
Om livets förgänglighet
Likt frosten som täcker marken
En dödande kyla min själ förtär
Stormen som aldrig passerade
Vinden som viner i sinnet
Den eviga kampen mot sig själv
Melankolins obevekliga kall
Ensamhet.. en ändlös strävan
Du vackra höst
Svep in mig i din skrud
Fyll mig med ditt svårmod
Under en himmel, blek och kall
Låt nattens kalla vindar härja
Den kommande gryningen, ett hopp så falskt
All fägring förgås, blir till ända

A Hollow Promise

All lustre died
As grotesque misfortune loomed with its jagged smile
Shaped the despondent heart
This empty vessel that I am
Crawled inside a careless void
Swam against the current in vain
I was but swept with the tide
Yet I seek no absolution now
Traverse these wastelands without regret
For deep within I always knew
Carried it with me for all these years
But now it's all too late
To reverse the gears of fate
I find nothing but hopelessness
A mere reflection of what life could have been
If the flight of sleep would embrace me
In this brooding endless night
As the shades lay over me
Like a drapery of doom
Feeding these mournful memories
Like a fateful dirge in the dark at sunrise
The stark sunlight bleeds into bloodshot eyes
Promising a false tomorrow that would never come
A hollow promise

Embracing Ruin
Let now gloom be your guide
In the valley of darkness
Where now you tread
Disheartened and comfortless
The disconsolate soul
Embracing ruin
What once might have been a resemblance of joy
I see your smile now crooked
Is there something beyond this suffering?
The loneliness that wouldn't leave
Suffused by the essence of melancholy
Coursing within
Defiling your every thought
Painting the skyline grey
Forever drowning out the light
Abstaining from every joy
In these barren plains you always expected
The disconsolate soul
Embracing ruin
Kill the pain that wouldn't die
Erase the years, undo the lie
Embrace the ruin

Screamed inside for the demons to die
For a peace I was unable to find
Waged battle for years, or maybe not even tried
The world will keep turning, again and again
Yet nothing will change, everything is constant
Am I the only one to blame?
There's no more light and hope has faded
Blackness consumes my every thought and I foolishly embrace it
Realizing too late that everything has been a lie
And all this time has been wasted
But I found an answear, yet I let it slip away
And now everything will be
..undone
Screamed inside for the demons to die
For a peace I was unable to find
There is no more light and hope has faded
The candle blown out..
Waged a battle for years..
Pointless and desperate, in vain

Unalterable
07:38

|
Under grey skies and frigid winds I wander
Heavy steps, a drudge, towards another day
Yet another worthless day
Into a vast chasm my world crumbles and nothing is anymore
On the edge of the abyss
Locked in an unalterable state
Dissappear and dissipate right before my eyes
Dissappear and die
The feeble offerings of this mundane world
I never wanted to be a part of
The endless neverending cycle
Reduced to forever tread this unalterable path

Gjennom tideløse mørke drømmer.
I fuktig høstvind over landstrakte vidder
Mot Sorias fjellheim
Kommer jeg, en fandens ridder
Glatt er runen på det høye fjell
Gnidd vekk av regn og vind
Dragende kraft av ondskap lurer
Her ved trollheims muldne grind
Fortumlet av dette mørke byggverk
Med røvet gull fra lysets pakt
Brukt som spott til å senke
Deres murer
Vi grunder over dette riket
Så vakkert fylt med tideløs skumring
Som en stjerne i tomsindighetens juv
Det bringer frem en nattlig mimring
Over tanker fra en vissen tid
Drott til himmel er det reist
Av tidens endeløse svarte minner
Stormblåst ut av det sorte indre
Har bergflint rullet fra mo til kneist
Undring og angst samler seg i natten
I mørket som ruver om spiret
For ingen dag kan veien hit
Intet lys kan luske frem
Der sorg har beseiret alle gleder
Og bygd et land på menneskets jord
Fylt med isklad prakt og heder

One of the best black metal albums ever made. "Ethereal" is funnily enough the perfect word for it. Soak in its atmosphere and behold its beauty.

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10

Devoured By The Oak
by Cân Bardd
supported by 5 fans who also own “Unalterable”
Devoured By The Oak easily just became one of my favorite Epic/Atmospheric Black Metal albums. The clean vocals and screams are done with such emotions, and the riffs ooze nostalgia and melancholy. I am also a big fan of the female singer featured on a few of the songs. This album cannot be missed if you like anything majestic and atmospheric in the realm of Black Metal.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.
