My hand grips the edges
of the coffin, blood trickles
down into the ground.
My eyes are finally opened.
Eternity found.
Where once I craved death,
now I merely yearn for that
sweet sanguine liquid
which runs through your bones.
Reborn, I now feel whole,
the moon beckoning to me.
Its mistress, the sun,
was never a friend to me.
She'd hide among the clouds
leaving darkness in her wake,
and no matter how I begged,
the shadows I could not shake.
So trapped I felt in my mortal body,
longing for the end,
when really all I needed
was to start again.
I bring your flesh to my lips,
as I hear your final moan
You reach out to my face,
begging me to let go.
"You will return to the earth,"
I whisper in your ear,
as your eyes roll back in your head,
no longer filled with fear.
On the brink of the following night,
you will return to me,
a blood-starved, gasping specter,
longing for reprieve.

the only thing i love more than some cleanly produced black metal is when it’s made by righteously angry queer folks. excellent instrumentation, and vocals that sound like they’re coming through a portal from the future, trying to warn us about the coming apocalypse. Mae Shults
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
