LYRICS:
------------
No sound eye may grasp,no sound mind shall remember.
Cursed grounds, alive anew, restrained by fools more lost than our paths.
You've been waiting for this, lurking behind glass,
vulnerable and blind to everything but your own pleasure.
A self-reflecting image of an avarice mind.
The devils work in ways so things which aren't appear to men as if they're clear to see.
You've fallen so low!
There is no fine line between good and evil in a place where captivity is a mentality.
And upon this final moment of your eternal glory you realize you're in a world without salvation.
Cursed grounds with dead thoughts, oddly bodied and viciously crawling.
The very soul of rumors turned you into the very thing we all despise so much.
You may be done with hell, but it sure as hell ain't done with you!

This one is dedicated to our brothers Chris, Lev, Matt and G a.k.a. WOE. Thanks for having our backs in times of war against stupidity.
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
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
