lyrics

When spoiled days of youth
Breed nights of harrowing truth
Spiral patterns reveal
Deceive and conceal

The stars gaze back and I feel them burning
Sorrowful embrace
White, hot with yearning
They painted across my face

In a dream I set fire to water
And buried my face in my own two hands
yet there was no absolution
Nervous sobbing and a crooked smile

I long to hear again
The voice from within
Which proudly sang to me
Of what I was to be

Dissonant voices echo
In a chamber far to small
Black liquid seeps from open eyes
The spores have found their way inside

Held captive in the eye of the storm
Where everything is quiet and nothing matters
Lay down and wither
Wither and listen!

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate

supported by 124 fans who also own “Of Unbearable Longing”

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire

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

Algleymi
by Misþyrming

supported by 115 fans who also own “Of Unbearable Longing”

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
