lyrics

Les ogres aussi pleurent : et leurs orbites vibrent
Sous l'épreuve embrasée que de brutaux calibres
Versent en s'éloignant, emportant avec eux
La pointe taciturne des tumultes radieux
Qui ornent nos attentes et balafrent nos verbes
Lorsque le cœur soudain lance sa strophe acerbe :
La scansion de ses psaumes, le baume des dictions
À l'heure où les fantômes dans leur déréliction
Dévorent les chagrins dans un dernier soupir ;
Sens son sang ciselé là où l'ogre respire,
Tandis que le soleil craquait sa coque amère
Et vidait tout son jaune sur l'écorce des mers.
L'espoir amouraché de tes nuits arrachées
Se mêlant dans les aubes des promesses crachées ;
Dis-moi dans un silence que le gouffre dégèle,
Que mes larmes s'étouffent, que ma douleur est belle !

Exercises in futility

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

This album is just 100/100, like so many albums from mgla. How can a band hit the spot so many times? They are incredible. Thank you for accompanying me almost daily these days :) adrianradillo
