Our bodies as one body. One ghastly entity. Our souls as one soul. One spectral eternal flow. You are the moon, I am the night. As for ourselves. You are mine. I am yours. We are death and life. No regret. No retrospection. We are death. We are life. No regret. No retrospection.You are the moon, I am the night. Rotting in the sun. Only love and lechery. Your beauty is perishable. Brave soul born for pain. Elastic immaterialness. Majestic dormancy. Filth of transient pleasures. Depraved weakness. To rive the holy fruit. To take a heart. To burn a heart. To eat from thy flesh. I feed you with mold. I bathe my wounds in salt. To rive the holy fruit. To take a heart. To burn a heart. To eat from thy flesh. I control your temple. Stars seen through the eyes of the animal. Lungs filled with the magical night air. I give you my heart. To burn my heart. Rive the apple. Eat from my flesh. I am the night, becoming the day. My soul is a river. The moon of a poet. No regret. No retrospection. You are mine. I am yours. We are death and life.
Tu es cette perle de lune, hurlante au creux de la nuit. Et moi je suis cet astre brulant ce qu’il reste de vie. Pardonne ma violence si je crame ton visage. Tu souffres en mon absence. Loin de ta surface criblée d’impacts. Je ferai briller pour des milliards d’années ta beauté sélène, qui a excité ma colère et mes peines solaires. J’ai bon espoir que tu prennes place devant moi pour une dernière éclipse. Notre grand soir. Toutes les autres danses célestes s’arrêtent. S’arrêtent. S’arrêtent. Tes grands yeux noirs, creusés dans cette face sombre, capturent et avalent toute la lumière du monde. Qui en crève. Nous sommes la vie et la mort. La lune et le soleil.

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

Listening to this on shrooms was haunting, which made it into a serious trip! Which was a mistake I was not prepared for. I do have something to say about it though on why I think it such. I have personally experienced several tipi ceremonies. One would stay up through the night, consuming peyote, doing in some sense a molting process and does so by connecting you to the spirit world.
This album does this, but different - I say it transcends that experience, and does it well... On shrooms.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
