Arising from the depths of infinite black seas
Summoned by unknowable deities of old;
"Of the Word he is, and shall become!"
The deities of doom yelled, for their Word is law
And upon the Law the lower spheres are begotten
A silence was then upon the waters…
A moment of inexplicable horror it was
When he, the foul one, rose from the depths
Blackened sludge fell from his mouth,
Filled with rotting teeth and words of war
His eyes, empty of soul, peace he knew not of
He spoke unto the dark;
"I am Adam, demon, firstborn of the blind!
I am Death, I am Plague, I am Famine
I shall bring Doom upon this world
The sword I shall forge and give unto the children of mine
For to reap this world dry of blood!"
Innumerable aeons then went by,
And as the scriptures foretold, Adam raised Cain;
Madness and impurity incarnate
The deities rejoiced in their dominions
As Cain entered the hollow of impiety
His unhallowed acts are carved into our mountains
And so, his legacy is fulfilled till the end of time
In the fields, the harvest shall grow weak and feeble
Drowning in rivers of blood
And in the woods, the cries of his servants shall fill the air
Blind with rage and sin
And the sea shall flow with death
Emptiness below and above, waves ridden with disease
And so, we are condemned to walk these plains
Plains of death, plague and famine
Eternally in a cycle of doom
Until the last sigh of this cursed earth...

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

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
