lyrics
This the of time of a new day, of a brighter day to come
This a time for revelations, for a change in the ever pulsing tide
Brun the old drawn lines, there's no such things as destiny
This is comfort that you seek in the birchwood chapel
Gather, gather round my friends, I'll tell you my secret
We have the power to shape our lives, to outrange what has been done before
From the ground turn your face t'wards the sky, forget the the old ways
We're all too human
Bound to rot
Let it burn, let your vision burn and guide you, through fear
Through questions, we must go beyond
The veil of flesh, I refuse to rot, nameless
The veil of flesh, burn the birchwood chapel
The dawn I designed, is deathless
To create we must choose new rules
To comprehend we must break
To build we must destroy
To see beyond we must level the mountains
The compass as a beacon towards light
The hammer as the weapon and the tool
Will you follow me, I'm willing to share my secrets
And if we fail, and if black smoke spoils the skies
We'll wait for the return of the sun
Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan
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
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 RJ
