Whispering a lament
Descending to the abyss
Dark the ocean is
Sink to its heart
Dark the ocean is
Lie underneath
Whispering a lament
Descending to the abyss
Ocean prays and we
Sink to its heart
Ocean prays and we
Lie underneath
Blackened the flesh
Of the sun
As the night forever falls
Night moon rising
Stars shining
All pale in sight of the mourning star
Blackened the flesh
Of the sun
As the night forever falls
Night moon rising
Stars shining
All pale in sight of the mourning star
Rise from the depth
From the world of slumber
Screaming creatress
Crawl away from decay
Rise to the Light
Of the mourning star
Rise to the light
And create a new dawn
Blackened the flesh
Of the sun
As the night forever falls
Night moon rising
Stars shining
All pale in sight of the mourning star
Blackened the flesh
Of the sun
As the night forever falls
Night moon rising
Stars shining
All pale in sight of the mourning star

A Silent Frequency

Nimue come forth and carry us away
The darkest sky, the wind upon your veil
One last breath as you reach for the rain
One last thought, one last word
From a place of spiritual rest
An ancient resonance
Lifting up from the void
Becoming and changing shape again
Reverence in the power of self
I am reborn
I am in ceaseless flow
Carried through the great beyond
By regeneration I become
Extinction, desolation
Dispersing a physical death
To rid the vermin of the human sort
Enraged by the aeons of exile
I evoke the quaking earth
I evoke the giant, crushing waves
And reap a karmic devastation
Devastation

The mirrored self
Out from the chasm
Up from the floor
Numbed from dust and dirt
The withered stone
Of the temple, dark in shadow
Marks a journey of the spirit
To the pagan altar
Nimue
She's seen us
She's seen what we have done
Forgive us
We know what we have done
She comes forth, Mother Nimue
She poisons her corrupted offspring
And all at once her pain is reflects upon us all
And all we left was a pile of stone upon her grave
The dark taint of death spreads
It spreads within our hearts
And her voice will fill the entire sky
Falls her punishing hand
On all humankind
The reign of silence
Follows the cries of innocence

Blackbraid is a spiritual force in the black metal scene, bringing a unique perspective and culture that was missing until the release of this album. 'Barefoot Ghost Dance on Bloodsoaked Soil' is immensely powerful, showing me that black metal is as strong as ever. 'The River of Time Flows Through Me' is excellent as well, with a crushing melody and unforgettable song title. Hail Sgah'gahsowáh, the new blood of black metal.

Well, after listening to Death and Black Metal for over 35 years, it sometimes gets boring, even if bands try to innovate. But then you stumble upon an album, which immediately clicks: it fresh, but familiar. It’s emotional, intelligent and complex, but not for complexities’ sake. It flows, it works, it’s authentic. This album is absolutely great, it’s all I want from this kind of music: cold soundscapes, raging fires, the embrace of darkness. 10/10

Everything comes together extremely well in this album. Probably my all time favorite black metal album now. The mix of atmospheric almost shoegaze playing leads extremely well into the intensity black metal normally has. The saxophone they use on almost all the songs really puts it above others in the genre for me.

Here's to some more cosmic metal, the Karlsruhe based outfit offers crude yet extremely well produced sound in this earlier effort. Featuring mid-tempo cadences, occasional blast beating, high pitched shrieking essentially, the riffing has this mildly meaty, sensational over-atmospheric tilt that's always well received on my part. The perspective of getting sucked into a wormhole had never felt better I kid you not. Emperor and Inherits the Void in mind, you just can't skip this one.
