lyrics

I have been searching these dark caves for days.
To take just one last long look into her eyes.
The image of her imprints onto my mind and stays.
I hope my revelations will be to her surprise.

Forsaken. She seeks the righteous path.
Forgiven. She completes me. She completes me.

I lift up the crypt to see her face.
Her lifeless body laid out with such grace.
Now I can travel and tell the people I've met.
That I can still hear her whisper...
"I am DEATH."

She rises from the tomb and now stands so tall.
Unravel the dreaded scroll to reveal it all.
I'm the first to witness her glorious resurrection.
I'll be the first to embrace her ways of perfection.

She moves. She turns.
She looks. She sings.
She bleeds. She flees.
She screams.

I lift up the crypt to see her face.
Her lifeless body laid out with such grace.
Now I can travel to tell the people I've met.
That I can still hear her whisper..."I am DEATH."

And I'll wait here for you.
But I've waited too long.
And so here I'll wait for you.

I lift up the crypt to see her face.
Her lifeless body laid out with such grace.
Now I can travel and tell the people I've met.
That I can still hear her whisper...
"I am DEATH."
"I am DEATH."

Coagulating Darkness

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
