lyrics
Lyrics:
In the first light of day
A mere wisp of smoke remains
In the cool, damp, vernal air
The acrid smell of nearing rain
At once, what was lost is truly gone
Yet, as the ice retreats
A path is revealed
Just as the trickles merge into a stream
The veil as opaque as stone gradually lifts
Among the burnt and bent debris
A glint of old, an enduring prospect
There still is time to revive, to build
A promise of mending
No illness, no hurt
Onward
With a purpose guiding homeward
To a new beginning
Onward
The course is set homeward
An eclectic but incredibly well-integrated blend of traditional death metal, melodeath, black metal, progressive, and even a bit of folk (with the added bonus of audible and tasty bass guitar). The album has a consistent, pulverizing momentum punctuated by the rare acoustic passage or catchy chorus/refrain. Overall an unbelievably mature first offering from an up-and-coming band to watch.

I came accross Black Curse, and their first demo, on Greg Biehl / No Gleaming Light YT channel in late 2019 and a bit later, in 2020, as it was covid, a whole lot of time was spent at home listening to music.
In April 2020, I took a slap in my face. The songs that were already on the demo, with the new production here were so insane, it dragged me to hell. Black Curse is definitely one of the most violent band I listened in the last years. Next-level Black-Death metal for sure ! drs_dramm
A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
