lyrics

Dawn’s first light drowned in the mist
I gaze into the rain which seems endless
Death uttered my name in the night
This morning she shall come for me

The darkened procession begins their march, always forward UGH!
The woods seem to weep as the sinner walks forth

Upon the hill, the crowd stands solemn
Like vultures, here for the flesh
Empty and lifeless are their eyes
So hungry for the song of bone
The rain keeps on pouring down
Oh how I would love to see the sun
Just for that one last time
Rope and hood deny my wish

With one swift move my world turns black
Final dance alone with the northern winds

I told you, here you will die, the gallows’ promise

The gallows’ promise

The Funeral Pyre

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
