Born in the pits of Isengard
Sewn from the Earth
Deep in the pits of Isengard
Unnatural birth
Crawling out of mud
Lust for death in their eyes
Servants of the white hand
Spreading his blight
Born in the pits
Sewn from the Earth
Born in the pits
Unnatural birth
From our fire falls the ashes of men
Dust as we trudge
The white hand shall rule us all
The white hand will rule us all

Durin's Bane
08:16
|

|
A demon of the ancient world
I serve at Morgoth’s hand
From mountains of Thangorodrim
To the fortress of Angband
My foes all flee before me
My fires scourge the land
All bow before the master
Of all Beleriand
I slumber deep in mountain roots
‘Neath dwarven halls of old
My body wreathed in scourging flame
My heart is purely cold
Digging greedily and deep
In search of mountain gold
Awakened from my slumber
In fury I am bold
The ground beneath me booms and quakes
As dwarven fears take hold
Aided by the orcs and trolls
Those of Morgoth’s fold
I glory in the slaughter
As I did in times of old
The massacre of Moria
Is how it shall be told
My piercing gaze of fire
Leather wings of black
I lead my hordes to battle
With my hordes attack
Elf and dwarf and man
All melt upon my blade
With sword and whip of fire
I am known as Durin’s Bane
The bridge beneath my feet
Collapsed into the air
But with my malice whip of flame
The Istari I ensnared
We fell for an eternity
An endless cavern void
Orange and red alight the rocks
Deeper down we soared
A poison sea of cold below
Doused my coat of flame
An iron grip around my foe
Magnified my rage
My fury not yet spent
Our battle yet raged on
Apart his flesh I rent
With tooth and horn and claw
Through ancient dwarven halls
Sculpted long ago
To ragged mountain tops
Blanketed by snow
The clamoring of battle
Broke through glass and stone
An avalanche of might and rage
Shattered horn and bone
A conflict for the ages
A clash of Maiar might
Victory awaits me
Triumph in my sight
My heart looked back to ages past
The name I would forsake
No longer titled Vanima
I am Durin’s Bane

Wraiths are at our backs
Riding mounts of black
Though the road is long
Further we walk on
Through the mountain pass
Deep in elven lands
Our power not yet gone
Further we walk on
We walk on

The embers burned so brightly
We were stuck in the path of them
Clinging to each other blindly
No chance to run and yet
I hadn't asked to be here
On this dark adventure
We knew our time was running out
Lost in the eyes of the flame
Amber rage sat below
Above us wind of ash
Masking our fate unknown
I didn't want to be here
I thought of my home
I knew my time was running out
In our most desperate time of need
Gwaihir will carry us from
The burning cliffside
And certain death
On eagle’s wings we’ll fly
The smoke began to choke us
One step and we'd fall
Down the burning cliffside
They must’ve heard our call
I knew I had to be here
On this dark adventure
Could our time be running out?
In our most desperate time of need
Gwaihir carried us from
The burning cliffside
And certain death
On eagle’s wings we fly
On eagle’s wings we fly

All I see is death
You'll never love again
Wait to die, here alone
That is why, you must come
If death is what waits for me
I must board upon the sea
Eternal life we’ll share
I'm destined to see
What's there, here I come
On the edge, not quite undone
All I see is my future without
Full of regret, of that I've no doubt
Shadows casted the darkness throughout
Death will come
And she'll go, cast love aside
For now, goodbye
What will you do when he takes his last breath?
Unable to cope with his untimely death

You have been brought
Before me
Defy me not
Or death you may yet crave
I am The Black Foe
Almighty One
Turn your eyes
Toward the ones you love
My malice knows
No bounds
Hatred flows within
Darkest thoughts pursue
Shadows blind your eyes
To the hearts of mortal men
You speak in tongues of lies
Your soul knows only death
Your spirit shall be bound
A destiny of chains
Sky of black storm clouds
Upon your final fate
Take your curséd throne
And look upon
Those you have
Delivered to me
There is no escape
Not even death will save you
A terrible curse has befallen you
Stand by the wayside as you watch
The most terrible thing you’ve ever seen
Lingering darkness has begun
Pain slowly spreading
Their death is near
Anglachel
Anglachel
Set alight in the storm
An eternal friend, slain by my hand
Beleg brought to his end
Anglachel
Anglachel
In a shallow grave he rests
Onwards I go, towards my grave
From now on I am Master of Fate

Forgotten Passing
02:45

Pathways we walked, leaves fell like snow
Passages lost, led to our home
Ages gone by, swallowed by sea
Evergreen memory
Shores of white
A far green country calling us away
Beings of light
Sins forgiven, land for us to stay
Tragedy slept upon a green hill
Rain wore at the fields nestled between
We wait, as it does still
Closer to us yet to be seen
Amber flames suspended in fog
Floating above us like those before
Sorrow casts it shadow
Tragedy waits for us no more

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.

Hidden History of the Human Race

supported by 4 fans who also own “Splintered Light”
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.

Seven Crowns and Seven Seals
by Sulphur Aeon
supported by 4 fans who also own “Splintered Light”
Nobody does death metal quite like Sulphur Aeon. Meticulously crafted dark and brooding atmosphere that oozes with Lovecraftian horrors. This release might not be as punchy as their previous two but it’s still excellent. 8/10
