lyrics
The scourge of immutable human lust.
Filled with a taste of bitter odium and regret,
Beyond mortal power, the tempter illustrates perfection.
Writing finally the epilogue of her journey,
Planting seeds of discontent in the uncoverers,
The plague approaches eventually, death awaits all,
Pestilence be passed on.
The growth containing shadows knows no boundary of darkness,
Gateway to Abaddon, through the gate of dust,
Luring the undivine and insignificant, blinding them with a dark canopy of illusion,
Distorting the senses, Belial, the father of lies.
It is inscribed at the entrance:
‘Ye who enter, abandon all hope’
It is written, Truth.
The growth containing shadows knows no boundary of darkness
Gateway to Abaddon, through the gate of dust,
Stares downward, to sempiternity, luring the undivine and insignificant.

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

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
