lyrics

We stand before the masters. We stand before those who witnessed the creation. We stand on the precipice. Staring into the abyss, in the shadow of the megalith, humbled by our ignorance and those who know the history of the dead. Stories told by the faceless, before the dawn of written time. Rich with culture and tradition, complex societies denied. Civilizations reduced to rubble, ash blown on turbulent winds. Man looks upon his creation, having reached its pinnacle. On top of the world she has the best view of its collapse. Civilization, order, edification reduced to chaos and left in ruins. Orchards slashed, cities gone, fall of babylon, by the hands of man. Marduk remains, reminding us of regeneration. All things must pass. All things will pass. On top of the world, man has the best view of its collapse. They gave their lives, for the glory of the empire, their remains buried in the shadow of the megalith. The apex of our creation, wiped away without a trace. With no humility nor diffidence, our fingerprints are wiped off the face of the earth. The knowledge we gain, from where they stand, the living will envy the dead.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
