my end 'neath the evergreens
an emerald funeral where the sky courts my breath
the boughs sing for me
drunk with wind they lull my eyes to ebb
oaken heart
myriad eyes of the grand host
beaming, summoning
my shield arm becoming weightless
as my conscience drifts away
leave this world behind
the vanquished mortal tomb
reborn a star divine
eternal glory
weep not when they fall
the noble, fair and strong
their names do cherish well
for all good days to come
flames lick the skin of the dead to maiden song
the fathers await my return in the golden hall
they sing for their fallen son with spirits high
a blazing heart and walking tall
i smile and abide
the sword-dancer's elegy
mother lays son aside father to rest
iron and destiny
the remission of flesh unto the earth that birthed it's end
this battle is all but won
to neglect your sword is self-betrayal
mother forgive my vices
hold me one last time
mother do not despair
i’ll see you on the other side

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

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

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/- Jordan Vauvert
