Through darkness I’ve transcended
Beyond the primordial sky
Traversing dimensions
To origins of infinite time
Vast, uncharted kingdoms
Clad in dust and gravity
Worlds dissolve around me
Chapters torn from history
Born of burning light
Cosmic flame
From astral fragments I became
The seeds of time, the laws defied
Starborn creation
Damned to burn across the aeons
Immemorial existence
Born of burning light
Cosmic flame
From astral fragments I became
The seeds of time, the laws defied
Starborn creation
(Creation)
I engage the ever-night with ancient fire
“Rushing forth in myriads,
as to wage war
with the lines of darkness”
[P. J. Bailey]
Sky to sky, weaving the web of infinity
Through the endless void
Godless tide, drifting so old and ethereal
A celestial force
Across the firmament
Rising from afar
Cradled by the eternal labyrinth of space
The firstborn star

Braving the cold
The old familiar storming of
Wind and snow
Ripping from the isle
With sail and oar
I cross unending ocean as
Times before
My back to the wind
Onward to crystal shores and soaring mountainside
Into the frost of northern breath
“Never say die!”
With every season time is withering
Over perilous lands I roam
Far is the passage through abysmal seas
The ever-stretching shadow of home
Wayward I wonder
As ravens are soaring
Through dark skies aloft
The sparks on high
Streak across the canvas of
Winter sky
Cloaked by the night
Star-fields glare
A symphony of celestial
Stratosphere
Polaris guides
The matron of North, empress of eternal ice
Brings forth frostbitten flesh
Spiraled in darkness, haunted by echoing songs
from those who drowned below
Claimed by the sea, so numbing and deep
At the heart of the storm
Felled by the wind, my sail torn to rags
A voyager I am no more
Cyclonic thunder, fire-bolts strike
Pitching the ship to its side
Snow-blinding maelstrom, blizzardous rage
Death-bound to my blackened grave
And as I feel my blood begin to freeze
Never again will I return home
Wayward I wonder
As ravens are soaring
Through dark skies aloft
Braving the cold…
Take me home

Fed to the Wolves

Broken, starved, war-torn and bled,
Together still we stand
But in the face of blinding fear,
You turned your backs and ran
Reaping riches in great store
By greed you’re led astray
Like daggers stabbed into our backs
The oath you have betrayed
There comes a time when we decide
To be the slave or wield the lash
You've traded in your hero’s pride
Our brotherhood now burnt to ash
Desire and weakness
Your fortune is made
From trust to betrayal
Deceiver
Screams fill the sky
On your knees you beg
Nowhere to run
To the wolves, you’re fed
A traitor dies a thousand times
Before his death is met
Penance in blood
To the wolves, you’re fed
Winter's sign, the first flake falls
Upon this barren field
Surrendered to the will of Gods
Before this blade you kneel
Cowards slain, in fear they fled
By right, we claim our pound of flesh
Eradicated, hunted prey
Unleash the baying hounds of death
In silence and sorrow
You're buried in shame
The circling vultures await you
Screams fill the sky
On your knees you beg
Nowhere to run
To the wolves, you’re fed
A traitor dies a thousand times
Before his death is met
Penance in blood
To the wolves, you’re
Fed to the wolves
Fed to the wolves
Your death is met
Fed to the wolves
Fed to the wolves
You’re fed
Majesty is yours
Never to feel again
Your place in Odin's court is sacrificed
The wolves will consume
Vengeance must be attained
No rest until their bloodline has run dry
Eye for an eye
Screams fill the sky
On your knees you beg
Nowhere to run
To the wolves, you’re fed
A traitor dies a thousand times
Before his death is met
Penance in blood
To the wolves, you’re fed

Unholy Harbingers of War

Time and time again
The horns of battle sound across the land
Bringing forth the tides of war
By the spirit of the wolf,
and One-Eye’s will, our legions show no fear
Heralding no master nor king
Riding on the ageless winds
Bound by oath - sworn to the end
Enemies, hear our call
Born for battle, all shall fall
Hail to the gods of steel
Who reign on high – empyreal
Guardians guide our swords
Unholy harbingers of war
From dusk ‘till dawn
Their lives are crushed into oblivion
Fates are sealed, their death revealed
Pagan blood runs through our veins
Let pride and glory be our destiny
Make your stand, no turning back
Brothers of freedom arise!
(Rise!)
Never surrender
Kneel before none
Invictus!
Take the world by storm
Show them death and domination
Piled high are the mountains of the slain
Conquered with an iron fist
Riding on the ageless winds
Bound by oath - sworn to the end
Enemies, hear our call
Born for battle, all shall fall
Hail to the gods of steel
Who reign on high – empyreal
Guardians guide our swords
Unholy harbingers of war
Unholy harbingers of war
Unholy harbingers
Harbingers of war

Brothers I am calling from the Valley of the Kings
With nothing to atone
A dark march lies ahead, together we will ride
Like thunder from the sky
May your sword stay wet like a young girl in her prime
Hold your hammers high
Blood and death are waiting like a raven in the sky
I was born to die
Hear me while I live
As I look into your eyes
None shall hear a lie
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill
My father was a wolf
I'm a kinsman of the slain
Sworn to rise again
I will bring salvation, punishment and pain
The hammer of hate is our faith
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill
Rip their flesh
Burn their hearts
Stab them in the eyes
Rape their women as they cry
Kill their servants
Burn their homes
Till there's no blood left to spill
Hail and kill
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill,
Hail and kill

Darkness awakened
Arisen with the moon
Hallowed soil now exhumed
Bloodshed unending
Each night slept in fear
Since the old King first appeared
He is the one who walks after death
The shifting shape that hungers for flesh
Passing through the stone of his ancient shrine
Beyond the forlorn throne
To live is to die
Arriving from Northlands, he strode
A champion of valor and strength
“Go now", the chieftain spoke
"Return this mare from whence it came”
With sword in hand; axe, shield, and spear
At dawn, he mounted his steed
The hero’s pursuit of the aptrgangr
To bring back the head of a King
Crimson is the forest
Tracks in the snow
Where the restless spirit roamed
Entered the barrow
The corpse rest inside
On decayed lips grew a smile
He is the one who walks after death
The incarnate curse, the scourge of man
The bringer of madness, invader of minds
Beyond the forlorn throne
To live is to die
At once, the torch extinguished
Frost and twilight filled the vault
Quickly, he reached for his sword
Before the lich could grasp his throat
Swinging with force, he cut through the air
Like the will-o-the-wisp, ‘twas was no longer there
Gripping his steel, he turned to attack
Feeling its breath on the back of his neck
Bringing the bastard down
From stab-wounds came forth
White worms and dust
Along with the gilded crown
Fell the eldest of blood
Slaughtered limb from limb,
The King fell to his knees
Writhing with the sound
Of a thousand screams
Fire!
Fire consumed the headless remains
Scorching, burning, conquered by flames
Silenced at last,
The smoldering ashes were cast
Into the sea
(Into the sea)
He is the one who walks after death
The incarnate curse, the scourge of man
The bringer of madness, invader of minds
Beyond the forlorn throne
To live is to die

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime. Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques. Suivez la procession de Батюшка ici : https://sphieratz.bandcamp.com/album/-

Frigid, melodic black metal that reminds me of Helrunar and Lunar Aurora. The last track is also one of the best tracks never put out by Solstafir.

A Pagan black metal masterpiece. Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way.
