Thunderous discord
An encroaching presence
Thoughts left to die
Weeping, burning my home
Forgetting what once was held
Like a lamp in the dark of night
Though my hands tremble
I can never leave this place
I watch the flames rise
The ashes dance among the stars
I rest my head upon the rocks
Hear the earth mourn
Longing for silence
I embrace the ruin
Thunderous discord
An encroaching presence
Thoughts left to die
Weeping, burning my home
Forgetting what once was held
Like a lamp in the dark of night
PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
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
If “atmospheric black metal” implies majestic comedowns and dramatic dynamics, this powerhouse instead constitutes anti-atmospheric black metal. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 23, 2021
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
