lyrics
Avance ! Rejoins le sommet de la montagne
Regarde de là-haut ces milliers de lumières
Qui entravent la nuit, qui l’empêchent d’émerger
Et de pénétrer nos cœurs
Avance ! Redescends auprès du troupeau
Loup ou brebis, quelle différence?
Parmi les flots de l’indifférence
Qui peut faire résistance?
Avance! Délaisse enfin les villes assiégées
Les forêts décharnées,
Les campagnes médicamentées
Le sol est malade et la route est minée
Marche en avant ! Rejeton de la modernité
Parmi les fantômes, les cadavres, les têtes coupées
Fais ta place auprès de la mort
Donne sans crainte ton obole au passeur
Laisse couler !
Les flots de l’enfer t’emporteront
Sur terre comme au ciel
Mort ou vivant, il n’y a rien à espérer
Madness following a trajectory from Masonna's beauty beast voice noise agony and damning it through the lenses of the lesser known deformed cassette world of the late 90s and early 2000s tape scene. Akitsa
Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
This album is just 100/100, like so many albums from mgla. How can a band hit the spot so many times? They are incredible. Thank you for accompanying me almost daily these days :) adrianradillo
