lyrics

By onyx sky we crept to harbours’ throne
where docked their fleet in stone
We every kinsman slew:
the iron grip will wait for none

Sworn unto fealty, we left them nothing

O’er azure sea we sailed to shattered coast
alight with passion’s ghost
We moved across the frozen shore,
and there we burned our household’s name away

As life defines the earth,
so light denies thy crown

“Make a vow to me
that your resolve would never falter,
and save a bough for me,
for our doom grows ever nigh”

On garnet field we fell as damned the fates,
consumed by desperate hate,
that one which cleaved our bond,
that killed our king, that cursed our name forever

As night falls below,
so blood denies thy crown,
and darkness reigns forevermore

“Once a man, like the sea I raged…”
“Chaos rain upon thee!”
“Once a woman, like the earth
I gave fortune to the sea…”

Beyond The Palest Star
by VORGA

supported by 11 fans who also own “Like The Sea I Raged”

From the first riffs and notes you are entranced by the majestic power of VORGA. Beyond The Palest Star is among the best black metal albums of this year, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it lands at the top for a lot of fans. Get out of their way; album three will no doubt be pantheon level for the genre. The growth from the last release is quite substantial. Cosmic Judgement comes for you! Metallurgical Fire

Blackbraid II
by Blackbraid

supported by 11 fans who also own “Like The Sea I Raged”

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ

The Decline of the Enlightened Gods
by FROZEN DAWN

supported by 10 fans who also own “Like The Sea I Raged”

I really cant pick a favorite track, this whole album kicks so much ass with its intensity and ferocity from beginning to end. Definitely a new favorite artist. Really gives off Necrophobic vibes with the melodies and atmosphere. Andrés Salas

Dead Mother Moon (24-bit HD audio)
by Upon Stone

These California up-and-comers don't merely pay tribute to ’90s death metal; they make it their own by taking charge and letting it rip. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024

This band has skyrocketed into my top 10 and there's no doubt why. How can one be as consistent and heavy as them? QuarkStorm
