Void bound envoys of mortality
down the sun shackled to fatality
poison wine trickling into the gut
I abominate thee
the kingdom lies prone, impure
hypnotised by the beauty of the lure
darkness smothered the urban blight
so in darkness I shall take my flight
a return to the wooded mould
in a land where I’m never old
a return to the wooded mould
time's hands are dead and cold
Sea wolf spirit...be my pain
dragonfly spirit be my reign
the nymphs light my way
the concrete fad now far away
Owl and Eagle...be my eyes
my hunting heart, the well of pride
take my hand, Faeries and Sprites
lead me through the forest night
A return to forest strongholds
A return to the wooded mould
In a land where I’m never old
a return to the wooded mould
time's hands are dead and cold
A return to forest strongholds
The keep of all earthly power
bears the crest of blood flowers
stronghold of the forest kingdom
bars entry to base men, ill intentioned
Stronghold.....

Sleep, erode, decay
Rot and bleed this way
Sleep, erode, decay
Consciousness in the form of sleep
Obey, decay

Ghost Signal Emitters

As painted mists, spirits fleeing urban tombs
dead cells rot inside deader wombs
expired and expelled, thee inspired to consume
to float all alone in space's cruel vacuum
let them see how abandoned you are
let them see hate brewing in your heart
contempt is thy passenger
stabbing in thy ribs
thee constant reminder
they don't deserve to live..
ghost signal emitters
tired and oh so pitiful
lash them to the tree of life
right the balance with a knife
ghost signal emitters...

Opium Grave Melbourne, Australia
Opium Grave is Black Kosmische Musik - a malignant hybrid of black metal, darkwave, 70s and 80s horror/sci-fi soundtracks,
early electronic music and krautrock.
Opium Grave is Siliniez: all synthesizers, drums, organ, voices, lyrics and loathing.
Mankind is a plague upon the Earth and deserves nothing but scorn.

Opium Grave recommends:
John Carpenter's music has always exuded calculated minimalism and a dark atmosphere. He is a hugely influential film maker and master composer. "Lost Themes" offers sinister sonic perfection.

Faerie Über Alles
by NUIT NOIRE
There is no other band like Nuit Noire. A fusion of raw BM, punk and a truly obscure nocturnal spirit. The forest is alive with strange creatures of the night and this is their essence, in audio form.
go to album
To me, this record is a perfect synthesis of forest ambience and cold, tortured black metal. A wholly transcendent experience, right up there with the "Wind of Moors" release from 2005. Hails.
