lyrics
So alone and majestic
Against wind, against snow
A towering flame
You traveled so long, so far, braved the waters of Ohr
And crossed the Neptune’s Torch
A wanderer, forever lost you are
A life of renouncement, of clarity
So alone, silent receiver
Fragile king of the distant spheres, you suffer and endure
Telling us what wisdom should be
There’s not a river you don’t know, nor a kingdom, nor a mountain
And yet you never asked for power, women or gold
I want to know your purpose, to grow wiser within your light
Tell me
I know that I don’t know, and so should you
I have no purpose, nor meaning, and so do you
We are and will be nothing
Follow me
I’ll teach you
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
