lyrics

Rise from the depths, o serpent of twilight
From the ocean floor, now taking flight
Spit all thy bile in the face of each god
Burn out each visage with unholy light!

Find them and blind them with the rays of the sun
Visions of missions, the bell has been rung
Mind them and bind them from the necks to be hung
Visions, incisions, through the eyes of the Dragon

Freed from thy tethers in this final clash
Heaven torn asunder 'neath cataclysmic blasts
Drowned in opulence, stygian gilded fraud
All life extinguished and reduced to ash!

Find them and blind them with the rays of the sun
Visions of missions, the bell has been rung
Mind them and bind them from the necks to be hung
Visions, incisions, through the eyes of the Dragon

O Leviathan, I invoke thy rage
Waves of blackest dark, a vortex of hate
The masses shall cower before the tyrant's rod
Birth in uncreation, in chaos he shall reign!

Find them and blind them with the rays of the sun
Visions of missions, the bell has been rung
Mind them and bind them from the necks to be hung
Visions, incisions, through the eyes of the Dragon

Malum Mortuus Denver, Colorado

As cold and solitary as the peaks of the Rocky Mountains, a monument to what was, is, and ever shall be. Forever independent, forever underground.

Eroded Corridors of Unbeing

This is the most personally appealing piece of music I have run into in a long time - from the beautiful lyrics and art and the crushing, non pretentious gorgeous heavy music. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, crushing - are there are other words? Gorgeous, exquisite.... sock4never

Fugitive Wizard - Extorris Magus Chapter III
by Fugitive Wizard

supported by 4 fans who also own “Through the Eyes of the Dragon”

Extorris Magus Chapter III est calqué sur exactement le même modèle que les deux premiers chapitres, à savoir deux morceaux de raw black metal séparés par un de dungeon synth — format idéal pour que l'on baisse sa garde et qu'on veuille se jeter dessus. D'autant plus que cet E.P. renferme un grand nombre de richesses : du raw black metal aventureux et médiéval en abondance mais aussi un sample qui donne le ton et des atmosphères énigmatiques. Fugitive Wizard sait nous capturer dans ses filets ! Jordan Vauvert

by Panopticon

I think the concluding song encapsulates what I most enjoy about this album: a defiant hopefulness that stands against the dark, determined to rise again when its knocked down, determined that it will know hope. archival_blob
