Jason Gilbert What a find! I’m glad to have come across this album. I’d seen it several times while perusing BC, but never gave it much of a chance. There’s something about the cover art that kept pulling me back when I’d see it. I’m happy that I finally took time to give it a good listen. It’s a real gem in the “melodic death metal” realm. Genre tags aside, if you’re into extreme metal, give this a chance. Give it a proper spin, though… if you don’t, you’re likely to miss out.

The Ceremony 05:00
lyrics

Forest,barren desertion of land absent of life now mortals stand a calling a purpose from the beyond muster my courage weak souls begone kneel for the start of the ceremony impending retribution bend to my will destructive nature my deadly skill glory, corruption reach for the box lifetime of torment eternal paradox bow for the cleansing of the soul Sun in my eyes This is my passage Into the light Great Prophet of War Promise me more Blood Blood of the damned Fresh slate, beginnings Sunlight on my back A hero’s journey righteous attack Earning my blessing A humble reward Off to the kingdom Brandish my sword Stand for the end of the ceremony Blood in my eyes Blood of the masses Burned by the light By the sword in my hand Cleansing the land In the name of divinity Loyal to the ring Marching so far from my home Call to war, call of grace, call it sacrament Sacred is my quest, this I know Draw my sword, holy light, holy lies abound Fear in their eyes, in their bones Flames arise, scorching the earth, burn the heretic I watch on In wonder Of the might Of evil incarnate, by your hand

Eye for an eye, ashes to ashes A rope that spins us round and round Makes it's way up to the neck Growing A hatred Prized goblet Filled full with Greed I wade through Stone hallways Thoughts echo Men brought to their knees blinded by justice my senses hightened by fire I hear screams flesh aching head pounding bloodshed desire For a place at this table This is what i fight for Draw my word Kill impale My war is far from the end Reminisce, cannot fail This is what i fight for Spread my wings Deep inhale My war is far from the end invention of mankind depriving me of wonder feeding off my empathy my compass pulling me yonder sweating teeth clenching mind screaming trial by fire cold steel to warm flesh one step to a new empire throne taken awaken this vacant conscious of mine through bloodshed of kindred a glory process divine This throne is mine For a place at this table This is what i fight for Draw my word Kill impale My war is far from the end Reminisce, cannot fail This is what i fight for Spread my wings Deep inhale My war is far from the end

To Douse Them in Blood 05:57

Husks stood high, dried, crucified This soil is holy, horrific, beautiful, divine, WHOAH! Mountains hold stories unspoken Carved stones won’t remember me Mangled flesh stood erect Corporeal form unknown The church bells ring once again Herald of the unknown Hall and pew built from rot Formed of flesh and bone Ashy light falls in hues Welcome the frost and flame Grasping back at where i came The beginning of it all Husks stood high, dried, crucified This soil is holy, horrific, beautiful, divine, Mountains hold stories unspoken Carved stones won’t remember me Mangled flesh stood erect Corporeal form unknown Mortal beings now defiled Calling out for blood and soul Painting these halls with memories Cravings of bloodlust whole Deathly light falls on stone A crossing from light to naught Hallowed grief, Ash and frost The beginning of it all Bleached, shattered and gnarled bone Mountains hold stories unspoken Carved stones won’t remember me Mangled flesh stood erect Corporeal form unknown F*CK

Collapsing Empire 06:09

The lantern by the cathedral sways in the middle of an icy field, barren and freshly adorned with snow Bodies strewn, ritual complete, true horror revealed It is winter now and no man can bear to witness these sites, but these aren’t really men are they? The butcher, the priest, the god who has forsaken you when you needed them most Spirits fade into the mist Under the gaze; the stained-glass eye Wisps sway above the fields of ice Red-stained glass, as above so below The butcher, the priest and the god who has left you Just when you held out your hand Almighty beloved the great absentee Punish each other, releasing us free They will march in winter There’s no help All the weakened, dying Join our dead They’ll defile your honor This is Hell No name spoken No story to tell No stories to tell As We Forget The siren’s song In our ears All along Clean break Herded with the outcasts Freezing without sun Dying by the hundreds With nowhere to run Sleeping with our nightmares Day brings no relief Buried are our hopes and Our bloodstained dreams This is a deathwish Join us in our hell Breathing isn’t living Nobody could tell Sleeping with our nightmares Day brings no relief Buried are our hopes and Our bloodstained dreams No story to tell Join us in hell

Trial of the Heretic 06:48
lyrics

Arise! Leave it all behind Fighting Fighting for the cause SURVIVE Setting Set it all ablaze Raining Weighting Pummeling down our might Loyal to the blight Grieving weeping Cower in fear tonight Alluring lights draw the viewers near Come touch this obelisk of white of marble And blood Ugh Arise! Leave it all behind Fighting Fighting for the cause SURVIVE Reaper Griever Traitor on the run Loyal to the blight Cast this guilt aside Lest we burn together tonight Mercy Murder Divine Madness in your eyes WE LIGHT THE WAY GO Divine I am divine Cast yourself aside And we’ll burn Together As one Crystal Veils Of ice Clear Above Your eyes Frozen Lake Of woes, Demons,Dreams And sorrows As winter Moves closer It’s breath assaults your skin We grow pale And weakened Infernal rot within Arms heavy Head hanging The anguish that you hold Reflections of madness Extinguished in a world of cold WE LIGHT THE WAY

What have I become? What have I become? A traitor… A lowly traitor… I betrayed my oath Taken at the start Betrayed my brothers in arms What have I become? What have I become? A traitor… Fallen as a traitor…

Cacophonous Blasphemous A knife in his side Our payment is due Our rite is nigh Run him down Bind his arms tight The lords shall have their man And we, our prize For we are Loyal to the Ring Crows and ravens survey Following trails for blood The headache rising in pressure You cannot escape the flood Like blood to sword Ink to paper is drawn From feather to feather A message sent by dawn The passage of days They slow to a stop An eclipse of sun A story of rot A loss of direction Now shattered within A numbing of souls Betrayal of kin Cacophonous Blasphemous A knife in his side Our payment is due Our rite is nigh Drag him down Bleed his kin dry The lords shall have their man And we, our prize For we are Loyal to the Ring Throw my compass away An endless chase for gold My greed for slaves and silver Failing to sins of old A STORY OF ROT A STORY OF ROT RETURNING TO NAUGHT A STORY OF ROT RETURNING TO NAUGHT A STORY OF ROT RETURNING TO NAUGHT

Mea Culpa 04:59
lyrics

The stranger knocks on the door, A breaking of the silence (the voices speak) The chains rattle underneath As demons emerge from the shackles I am nobody now, past buried six feet below A secret now squandered For now, this danger shall sleep The murmur of a rumor quiet, deadly breath Spread through the city Spelling out my death ‘O, the riches i tossed aside Inherited traits Remind me of an forlorn escape Fueled by betrayal, by hate An exhaustion of all my fury Of flesh and bone My final breath Tell the hangman I have arrived The stranger knocks on the door, A breaking of the silence (the voices speak) The chains rattle underneath As demons emerge from the shackles I am nobody now, past buried six feet below A secret now squandered For now, this danger shall sleep The murmur of a rumor quiet, deadly breath Spread through the city Spelling out my death Loyal to the ring Loyal to the ring I don a blackened cape An unsightly glory of mine A blackened sun to end time a traitor brought to me The subjects shout in glee I stand by the king Loyalty to the ring Loyal to the ring Loyal to the ring Loyal to the ring As we kneel for the ceremony

March Towards a Blackened Sun (Pt I-III) 10:48
lyrics

-Pt I- This is the way it ends My chosen fate unveiled by sickly light traitor's path into the void Embraced the unknown no one’s path but my own tomorrow is the day An effort of questionable valiance experience of dismay my defeat, my severance tomorrow is the day an end to my story The sun shall rise and fall Move in spite of my last breath “What consequence befits your actions What punishment is to descend Traitor of kin Fallen herald of grace Head fallen as you kneel Yes, this is how it shall end This shall be your end” This is the way it ends My chosen fate unveiled by sickly light A traitor's path into the void Embraced the unknown no one’s path but my own All rise for the Ceremony of Cleansing Divine one See now this lowly soul Looking down in mercy and judgment Help this one who has lost his way See the error of his sins So that as he descends into the eternity of punishment He will know that it is just and fair A sentence equal to his crime He will receive this punishment And he will rejoice -Pt II- All hail the blackened sun Reflection of our darkest needs Bloodborne into reckoning As servants in unison bleed Carnage to be viewed upon An eagerness burning bright Disintegration of the mind A deathwish brought to light UAH Many men have fallen before Their bodies resting below A journey from the highest of highs Like winged men reaching for light Nightly routine coming to end As this death will make me pleased Sharpen my blade to my stone Sever all heads with ease Bow down for your beheading A vulgar display of grace A shiver travels up your spine Color fades from your face Many men have fallen before Their bodies resting below A journey from the highest of highs Like winged men reaching for light A portal to the eternal flow Spiritual summons invoked Freedom from this lifelong blight My gateway to eternal night Phantom pains of the head I will lose Don’t take for granted thy power to choose Conquer your demons from your right and left Vanquish your evils before greeting death -Pt III- (Instrumental - Piano)
