lyrics
Lyrics:
Past the gate cold to the touch
Over the threshold of needle and rock
Into the starlit hall of windthrown pines
And across the marsh in its veil of white
On and on towards the glare of the shore
Until the even and calm forest floor
Through the shroud of fevered sleep
I hear the walls absorb the door
With the twisting of the windowsill
Shards of glass come bursting in
Here is where warmth once lived
Where days were spent confiding in
The unyielding hope of things to come
Of which there now survives none
I lie and I wait
I lie and wait and the air stands still
I lie and wait, it shall not be long
I lie and wait for our reunion
This design soon shall reach completion
At last I watch the roof collapse
The weight engulfs the room below
In a cloud of dust the last light drowns
Swallowing the air within
I can see it now
We are almost there
Here is where through toil and strain
Rest can quell all woe and blame
Here is where now stands a shrine
To that which shall never die
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
