lyrics

Adrift in the seas of perilous sleep
Possessed by our dreams
And as we awake
Our dreams we escape
Or so it seems

In the dead of night
A whispering poltergeist
Wanders in our mind
To sing a sullen lullaby
Ill tempered and morose
An acolyte of crows
'Neath a weeping willow

Howling winds will sunder
Body from soul
Dreams awake from slumber
To take control

The moon will nurture those
Abandoned by the sun
With every passing night
Our fears (remain) undone
And as we lie awake
We face the twilight's band
The harnessing of grief in retreat

As witching hours wane

about

Uhtcearu

Uhtcearu (oot-key-are-oo): An Anglo-Saxon word that translates to pre-dawn anxiety or nighttime sorrow. It is the feeling of mysterious unease and unrest when you lie awake at night, unable to sleep, waiting only for the morning to dispel the darkness.

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

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
