lyrics

Prostrate we fall before the grand transfiguration
Senses dull into a kaleidoscopic labyrinth
Into a trancelike state we rise before the eidolon
Self-permutation into the purest divine

Observing creation through multitudinous eyes
Creating a sphere of concentrated perception
Witnessing time as it crumbles into dust
Impulsively formed into structures anew

The incessant void rests in open palms
A canvas on which to create and destroy
Catalyzing time and space as energy
The hands clasp the shards of nothingness

Constructing the pillars of life
Sculpted with fragments of time
Written on parchments of sky
Revealing the poetry of the gods

Between congruent representations of time
Exists a gap of complex irreverent forms
An anarchy of the body and the senses
Lying between the absurd and the sublime

A disregard for the logic of the sentient
Action defined by the absence of provocation
Defining the will of those within its confines
Through the decomposition of purpose and desire

A pure creation
Lucid and unfettered
Bearing the aether wind
Lifted into glorious

Chaos

The splendor beheld here has no end
The splendor beheld here has no end
The splendor beheld here has no end
The splendor beheld here has no end

Resonance: Crimson Void
by Mare Cognitum / Aureole

supported by 94 fans who also own “Aether Wind”

Some of the best cosmic black metal I've heard. Mare Cognitum continues to prove themselves to be masters of crafting a vast, celstial soundscape, and the Lovecraft-esque atmosphere present throughout Aureole's half definitely made me want to check out the rest of their discography. honeycombguy

supported by 85 fans who also own “Aether Wind”

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

Exercises in futility
by Mgła

supported by 80 fans who also own “Aether Wind”

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf

Kelle Surut Soi
by Havukruunu

supported by 77 fans who also own “Aether Wind”

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
