lyrics
Oh, Great Serpent, grant us wisdom
Carry us, who know your signs
Through eyes of fire
See the darkness of our souls
Sons of the fourth sun
The betrayers of secrets
From the source of all worlds
Our curse resounds
An old and dirty season
Lies over the land
Sinister creatures
Bring dreadful sanctity
Oh parasite priest
Your purpose is not to set free
You guide by fear
A kingdom of crawling slaves
Corrupted by obedience
Priestridden
The spires of their churches
Reach for high heaven
But cast the deepest of shadows
Home to vultures who prey on the lost
Corrupted by obedience
Priestridden
Sons of the fourth sun
We have come to cleanse
Through the fires of old truth
Our weapons have passed
Wings offered by demigods
Accept them at the cost of your soul
Bridges built by idiots
Cross them at the cost of your soul
Through these priestridden lands
Leads a path that is forbidden
To all but yourself
Do not stop, do not turn

Music: Moss Upon The Skull
Lyrics: Tristan
An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
