lyrics
The world is made of wolves and sheep
with one devouring the other
It’s always been that way
and nothing ever changed
Although their titles may have altered
Their antics disguised by snaky smiles
with truth-twisting sweet words
The few still rein the masses
They reign with swords, they reign with silver
They reign with dead gods and with fear
They reign with terror and with power
But mostly they reign because sheep will follow
So stand your ground, enough is enough
clench your fists and whisper “no”
you are the only one to save the world
fight for what is right and uprise
I will neither the man nor fear take from me what is mine
Neither freedom, gold nor dignity
I will fight until we both go down
before I accept any truth I know not to be right
Uprise – do no longer follow
Uprise – until all kings and gods are dead
Uprise – you were born with the right to fight
Uprise – soar to be your own god
The sheep will wait until another stands and fights
and nothing is left for them
It is time to uprise and to be a wolf
to fight for your freedom, gold and dignity
and for all other sheep
They reign with swords, they reign with silver
They reign with dead gods and with fear
They reign with terror and with power
But mostly they reign because sheep will follow
Uprise – do no longer follow
Uprise – until all kings and gods are dead
Uprise – you were born with the right to fight
Uprise – soar to be your own god
Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
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
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
