lyrics
Jeg skriger i afmagt over selve din eksistens
Denne verden du har skabt for mig, er ren usødet smerte
Jeg væmmes i forbitrelse over alt du har forvoldt
Et liv i underdanighed og mindreværd
Jeg afskyr din kvalmende defaitisme
Som har affødt denne apati
Min eneste genkendelige tanke er misantropi
Et had som brænder med utænkelig kraft
Lad mishagets flammer opsluge dit væsen,
lad intet forhindre min hævnagt
Som tusind skalpeller dissekerer løgne
og blotter et indre af råd
Selvhad – dybets mørke
Sjælefred – en drøm gemt bag dis og tåge
Selvhad – mishagets flamme
Sjælefred – livets ophør
En gru, en brat opvågning
Fra foragtens blindende slør
I refleksionen, en sandhed
Om fjendtlighed som aldrig dør
Fanget i frygtsomhedens gab
Undertrykt realitet og illusion
Lad nu sløret falde
Leden flyder i dryppende blod
Selvhad – dybets mørke
Sjælefred – en drøm gemt bag dis og tåge
Selvhad – mishagets flamme
Sjælefred – livets ophør
At leve er at lide
At overleve er at finde mening i lidelsen
I selvhad
Væk mig fra disse feberdrømme
Med udsigt til frelse og fred
Tro og håb er kun slør foran mit selvhad
Min selvforagt
The painting on the cover (Udslidt by H A Brendekilde, if anyone is interested) and the music is in perfect alignment. So much sorrow, so much despair... Right from the start I can feel my soul wither away with each riff. Still, towards the end of the record I can catch little glimpses of hope in the melodies. A beautiful journey in the bleak reality of existence. vilmosomedve
Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2021
Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
