Thrall

Jordan Vauvert S'il fallait comparer Thrall à ce qui a été fait par Opium Grave auparavant, on pourrait dire qu'il est l'extrême opposé de The Sleeping Sun. Si le dark ambiant de ce dernier nous faisait aspirer à la sérénité de la mort, Thrall, beaucoup plus black metal dans l'âme, est pensé pour être écouté à s'en déchirer les tympans. Siliniez exploite le synthé au maximum de ses capacités au point où on croirait presque entendre de la guitare ("Thrall", "In Praise Of Alcohol"). Le nihilisme est destructeur. Favorite track: Thrall.

Thrall 04:50
A vision of tomorrow is of rivers of sorrow floating skulls of children and the beasts who kill them The way of today is lit by glaring displays limp spirits twist, always at play insight gives way to dismay an advanced culture simply won’t be anything to anyone when we don’t see The flame has died our hands are tied our souls are tired in apathy we’re mired apathy aphrodisiac summon the looming axe thrall to all now we shall all… fall… Pray for death, dear drones pray for dust to fall pray for the last call may the earth eat our bones Thrall we must…fall

Shadow Fauna 03:44
Glory in packs, pure eminence infinite majesty and providence endless power, held in silence drawing on will, never to obey us Raising young and free to run as hunters, unlike the men we’ve become so untouched by the crown of scum so emblematic, alpha apex sons Mourn the empty woods and curse our own blood sorrow fills the spaces above as rot set in below the mud Greatness can be felled its memory can be upheld Two hunters died here today as virtue was skinned away

When there seems to be nothing of the world you felt you knew when there seems to be not a thing keeping you straight and true when the times change too often and scum make the world their own when life is a series of long shots here’s where the dead call home the urge to fade away it keeps my spirit grey the urge to fade away it lives to only take away slide into the abyss I doubt you’ll be missed the truth is a Judas kiss fuck the light, goodbye bliss the urge to fade away it slices up my faith it pulls me into space the urge to leave this place

Sorrow will engulf the world Led like rats into the sea sorrow will engulf the world just wait and see...

The Keep 04:34
Prisoners of a deep, green abyss Coffin, tomb..here, no light exists Marble, stone, shards of bone Where lightless gloom made its home Watery chains bind mottled flesh Poisoned lungs induce cardiac arrest Drowned in midnight’s cruel seas Broken men bound in death appease... beauty in it’s hue, lips turn blue ...the keep ...the deep beauty in it’s hue, lips turn blue Washed away, lost among the murk Ex-terra, numb at last to the hurt Cut into the spirit the sons of might on Earth The assassin's woe... Ma tomb fleur Me porter vers le bas Dans le royaume de la mort La terre a été empoisonné Par le sang de traîtres ...the deep ...the keep

Of vintage wine I am a lover drink deep and darkly smother the pain of walking undercover in a grey laced land of shadows pour a dram of whiskey swallow a sip or fifty the warmth is always with me for now a drink will lift me In praise of alcohol my faith does come and go In praise of alcohol the scars won’t ever go The heat of mead is what I need to set me free and help me bleed In praise of alcohol faith does come and go in praise of alcohol the scars won’t ever go

Submit your will look into the eye of the machine as sleep takes you there look into the eye of the machine your master...

ROT INTO OBLIVION.
