Black Sails are gathering
So is pride in the hearts of men
At the port of Korthu
Ambition and prudence have clashed
And wrath was forged
In the blood of men
Beyond this Sea, I must find
Meaning through Force
Can I hold this sword (with Might)
When uncertainty sweeps all of my mind?
Beyond this Sea, now I must lead
To guide my brothers
Though myself, I'm being led
Through fire and steel
To a passageway home
Goddess of Wisdom
Place my forbidden knowledge
In the darkest corner of my mind
So I may go along with the stream
Of warlike and unknowing men
Yet leave me not to forget
My judgement and my freedom
Beyond this War, and the simple wants of men
Can I find a course of action
That echoes to Eternity?

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

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

No excuse, I should’ve already picked this up. When people can’t agree on what you’re playing but they know it’s metal, that means you’ve done it right. Metallurgical Fire
