Arise! Denizens!
We can only lose our chains
Do you not tire of this synchronised malaise?
Toiling the undergrowth for those who keep us caged
Do you not long to see the wilds beyond these bars?
To build a world we could finally call ours?
And though we may not ever see the end
Every seed we sew makes it all worthwhile
Standing in the shadow of a past
Untouched by malfeasance and decay
Harnessing the longing in our hearts
I promise you there is another way
They’ll never take our dreams!

The Pyres Of Iconoclasm
04:40
|

|
For too long they’ve glowered
Bronze fascist eyes
A public empowered
Monuments decried
Burn the effigies
Dismantle, discard
Reclaim the streets
Tonight these walls come down!
No tears for those who
Bartered slaves
Throw racist demagogues
To watery graves
Cast off the chains
Systemic, obscene
Take hold of the reigns
Tonight these walls come down!
Tonight these walls come down!
Cleanse our streets of these
Symbols of oppression
History’s for the writing
And this chapter ends here
A cheer rang through the air
Above the smell of sulphur and steel

Goading Extinction
03:57
|
|||
|
A ruling class blinded by capital
Our very lives viewed as collateral
Beat down, beleaguered and stricken with disease
The time has passed for living on our knees
And when these walls come down, we shall not forget
The cruel hands that condemned us all to rot
Before it’s too late you will pay for what you’ve done
You bastards guilty of goading extinction

Fluorescent Apocrypha

|

And in a thousand years
What evidence shall remain of us?
What becomes of our libraries?
Our museums? Our concert halls?
Or these vast digital catacombs
Transient recollections, cosmic comment sections
And in a thousand years
Who will document this tortured age?
Who will sift through this glut, of authorless ephemera?
Will these artefacts define us?
These remnants of a virtual youth
Will these avatars replace us?
These shadows that were once so much more

supported by 5 fans who also own “Mutinous Conflagration”
Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....

Molten Hands Reach West
by Grave Pilgrim
supported by 5 fans who also own “Mutinous Conflagration”
Grave Pilgrims self titled was by far the strongest Black Metal and tied to be my personal AOTY. The preview track is excellent and im sure the full album will again be one of the best this year. Very thankful for this.
