Downfall

They used to swear by his name
And fearful of his anger
He led them to victory
But their name is perjurers
The one who once built statues
Became the one who burned them down
The one who swore
Became the one who curses
The God of thunder didn't drown in the river
The blows of the clubs did not reach him
No flames have burnt him
No incantations made him disappear
Breaking the oath means death by own weapon - they swore
Let it be done!
Breaking an oath means turning into gold- they swore
Let it be done!

Luminous, Lethal Force

The dark sky is crossed by a ribbon of light
A loud crackling pierces the air
The wind is blowing clouds of dust
Even the old trees seem to bow to him
He was the first to give us fire
He was the first to turn dark into light
He let us harness his deadly power
So that we may warm in his light
Sacred symbols protects us from thunder
Our heads are turned to the sky
We don't feel fear but respect
For a beautiful luminous, lethal force
The one whose name we fear to speak
Lest we incur his wrath
He directs his rage towards our enemies
He is the one who strikes
And the only thing that's left is a scent of ozone...

Blinded by a flash
Brighter than a thousand suns
Her weary son
Fell nailed to the mother earth
His companion though full of grief
That the lightning spared him
Did not dare to touch
The sanctified body of the chosen one
Just as buildings set ablaze by lightning
Should not be extinguished
Person marked by that sign
Should be left untouched
Sanctified by the lightning
Chosen of the Gods
The one who escaped the death
Possessed more than any mortal
Sanctified by the lightning
Chosen of the Gods
Son of this earth
A foster descendant of the Gods
The one who has been marked
Got up after a few hours
But nothing was the same
As before
The fire seemed to hear his thoughts
The future was before his eyes
And his body seemed stronger
Than ever...

Atmospheric Black Metal from the heart of Siberia. Grima is a band that paints one hell of a picture with their music. Intense shrieking vocals echo behind such awesome instrumentals. Leaves you feeling the bitter cold winds of a desolate snowscape.

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!!

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10
