Hope is the worst of evils, because it prolongs the torment of men.
They are like those ethereal horror sequences that walk like ghosts into the void.
Faith means not wanting to know the truth.
Get away from it. Get away from it. Stay awake. Embrace the dread.
Dread, Sovereign of sense.
Dread. Relinquished by the adepts, stay awake.
(Fear has favored the general knowledge of the human being more than love,
because fear wants to guess who the other is, what it is that it can, what it wants.)
The blood which moves in vortical motion, reacting on the heart to continue not through the physical, not through the spiritual. Embrace the dread.
Dread, dread to all, dread to everything. Here is the nothingness.
Dread, dread to all, dread to still alive. Follow the venom, enter the bite.
Faith means not wanting to know the truth.
Get away from it. Get away from it. Stay awake. Embrace the dread.
Dread, Sovereign of sense.
Dread. Relinquished by the adepts, stay awake.
Dread
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
