Traces lost in the snow
No glimpse of light
thus no path to find
Lost in the wasteland unknown
With the moon and shivering stars
Hear the voices surreal
See the shadows in the dark
Yet there are many Mountains to climb
All alone in the night
Hunter from the shadows
Conqueror of ancient tales
Wanderer with wisdom
(The devil...devil...devil...)
The Devil that shall be known
Wading towards perdition
No glimpse of hope, thus no future
Lost in the abyss of existence
With the moon and shivering stars
Hear the whispers in the void
See the ruins of a fallen man
Yet there’s no place to hide
With the demons in the dark
Hunter from the shadows
Conqueror of ancient tales
Wanderer with wisdom
The devil that you know

A Paean to Fire
05:42

Phoenix forever aflame
atop the nail of heaven
with a wing to warm
and a beak to rend
Preserver of flesh
Eater of bones
the hearth by the cradle
And the raging corpse pyre
And yours is the last spark in the night
that goes out in our eyes
O' fire...
O' fire revered
Companion and creator
Sustainer and destroyer
A mask most fitting
For the god of all nature
Yours is the forge for blades
And the wordless call to war
Yours are the crimson flames
That bring forth our dawn
Unforgiving
forever untamed
a mask most fitting
for the god of all nature

...Black spirits speak in tongues...
Dream away and greet the fallen ones
The ones who strangle stars and suns
Fathers in realms of whirling wreaths
In thin air death I breathe
Truthful speakers of silence...
Adore - Under the poisonous tree
Adorn - The wounds we'll breathe
Burn with me oh flameless thoughts
Into infinty of no words...
Buried today, not in funerals to come
The ones who once kneeled before the throne
On all four I ate them all
Mars, Jupiter and the planet whore
Walk astray on these perilous paths
The weak ones who carry the hearts of wrath
Words of wisdom from sickening lips
Tear by tear I let the poison drip
Fools, the light will eat us all...
King for a day, worm to all others
The ones who held thorns before flowers
With horns in hand I ate of the tree
Serpents, apples, I counted three

A shining star that glittered far
When fixed in this our skie
A radiant light shewed
To our sight of knowledge from on hie
And by her motion gave direction
How we should move on earth after birth
Her influence store of alms
Ye pore in need received and dearth
Which thus in scourged waste lies
Til the Northern star again shall rise
Which thus in scourged waste lies
Till the Northern star again shall rise
There is no darkness in all the world
To put out the light of one small candle
By many prayers and showering tears
This her influence had
Of comfort much and blessings
such as joyed and made yet glad
There is no darkness in all the world
to put out the light of one small candle
This star so bright hath lost her light
Being fallen in the ground
Her earth we have within this grave
Her soul in heaven is now crowned

Master of Wilderness

Primordial power - Master of wilderness
Creature of the moor - Beast of the woods
Drape the ground with your curse
Over the gold heating
Capture the silver flowing
Riches for you to harness
Master…Of Wilderness
Handsome host of tundra
Give me the wealth of your land
I swear you – I’ll stay here
Until I get my revenge
Fade now the greyhound of light
Get out of the rapids – from withering life
Under the spell of the moon
Freeze your sign to the sky
Drape the ground with your curse
Over the gold heating
Capture the silver flowing
Riches for you to harness…Again
Master…Of Wilderness
Handsome host of tundra
Give me the wealth of your land
I swear you – I’ll stay here
Until I get my revenge
Master of wilderness
Open the gates to the Underworld
The final stop of my journey
There I’ll pay my debts

After God

This itch
One finger but five nails
As I wriggle like an eel
The reek of truth forever concealed
'tis the serpent's tongue and a dual tail
This tree
One king, but for them queens
As I carve my bones
Soulless tombs mourn carved in stone
An organism intellectual onanism unseen
After god...This echo
One god but no love as I hold the worlds
Between insect angels and devil worms
No horns shall rise until I'm gone
This spirit - One ruler but no kingdoms
As I kill my flesh Shadows haunt them souls
Shadows haunt them souls to the ones graveless
The breath it takes
The breath it takes inhales the venom
This echo - One god but no love
As I hold the worlds between insect angels
and devil worms
No horns shall rise
until I'm gone...I'm gone

Masterful use of acoustic passages and synth stuff. This is definitely my favorite black metal-dungeon synth kinda album I've found recently. Each track flows into the next so well, I cannot recommend it enough.

Saw them live and was taken away! Breath taking melodic black at its best. Just a deep dive into Nirvana 🖤

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.
