Short time surge
we see existence burn
swallowed whole, yet still we know our place
unaware of the impending end
swallowed whole where power beats philosophy
in our existence eternal (we crawl into our shells)
compromised by the weight of time (knowledge lost)
and when the cycle is over (we crawl into our shells)
compromised by the weight of time (knowledge lost)
Further from us without grasp of reality
with useless eyes we are shrunk into nothingness
no purposeleft
unknowingly the world departs
ascending storms
yet we still know our place
in our existence eternal (we crawl into our shells)
compromised by the weight of time (knowledge lost)
and when the cycle is over (we crawl into our shells)
compromised by the weight of time (knowledge lost)
Easily one of the best metal albums of the 2010s, which says something.
Musically, it's like you've taken black metal, doom, and good old NWOBHM and thrown it into a blender for a while.
More impressively, the lyrics to these songs are some of the most hauntingly beautiful and devastating I've ever heard.
Case in point, Junta. Just listen to it. grungiernine0
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 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
Culinary-themed melodic death metal outfit cook up a smorgasbord of fierce solos, tight percussion, and cheeky, foodie-approved screeds. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2024
