lyrics

I do not bow to your flesh,
Only worms in the grave will be her flock.
I do not admire your faith,
Wind of death dispel her.
I do not go the way of blind worship,
Spit on the altar of humility,
I don't believe in mysteries of mortals.

Tearing flesh - confessing nonbeing.
Incinerating a faith of "gray's wisdom"
Having trampled a path that was beat by herd.
Having exiled the illusion of life we are welcome death!

Stone by stone we will take your stall to pieces,
Look into my eyes -
And you will wither in the womb of the earth,
We will paint a white in black,
You will become only a cry, but to whom?

By chilling wind
I wander among mortals
eating their feelings and emotions,
Fill the insatiable abyss.
Penetrating into the gap between the worlds,
Staying beyond understanding myself.

I wander here long ago
That I forgot where I was going,
I am a walker and I am the way,
Forgotten word, hidden by a shadow of life.

The one that has no meaning, pronunciation and a source,
Was thrown by obscurity into the unbeknown.

When life become the shadow of death,
And the agony of the dying become a new birth,
The one who having passed the edge of the horizon
Will never fall asleep anymore.

Unsettling Whispers
by GAEREA

supported by 9 fans who also own “When Life Become the Shadow of Death”

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

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming

supported by 9 fans who also own “When Life Become the Shadow of Death”

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
