lyrics

THE SHADOW OF DEATH
In the void of despair, fear grips me without warning. When my faith is weak, it takes hold.
Alone in my thoughts, like death, voices of doubt rise to take hold, leave me cold.

Crying out in desperation
In the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for you are with me
I will fear no evil, for you are with me

There’s darkness closing in
Yet whom shall I fear?
The Lord is my light and salvation!

Alone in my thoughts, like death, voices of doubt rise to take hold, leave me cold.

Crying out in desperation
In the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for you are with me
I will fear no evil, for you are with me

...and the lamps expire.
by Addaura

Great Cascadian-style metal in the vein of Wolves In The Throne Room and Agalloch. Very atmospheric and organic sound. Highly recommended. Vials of Wrath

Passage
by ALDA

Another gem drawing inspiration from nature. Very nice acoustic passages and ambient sections intertwine with raw, aggressive black metal. Another great addition to the catalog of fans of Agalloch. Vials of Wrath

SYNER
by GRIFT

Excellent, thought-provoking album with beautiful artwork to compliment. Very close to Drudkh in style (to me); dark, intense and folk influenced with a hint of melancholic atmosphere. Recommended. Vials of Wrath

Forest of Iniquity

Brilliant, magical. Vivid soundscapes and feelings. Perfection! But, I have to admit, listening and taking a christian metal album into my collection is not something that I would normally do. Nonetheless, the music won me over, so I ignored everything else. Within Thy Wounds crafted here a transcendental, emotional atmosphere. Nothing can beat this. Umbra Cornuta
