Dancing twilight Illuminates the burning path In this young night The hammer is full of wrath Nothingness is nothing now Fire breathes without air Blood runs green Inbetween The pillars of a chosen mare So it begins Time will die You can't save us Don't even try! Emptiness under the moon Shan't make us swoon Move in chaos! Kill the chain! Tempt all darkness! Channel Cain! Come forth! Usurpers and slaves Beacons in shadows Destroyers of graves Behold the Tower And the Eye This is the power That never will die So it began Time did die You couldn't save us Though you tried! Emptiness under the moon Didn't make us swoon.

Alshinecheri 06:32
She moves through The deepest cracks in the night Where fires are burning But no thing is alight In her my dreams Are forever bent Her will points To my descent Holding a skull of flowers In days of night My soul is hers to devour With loving spite Wrap me in your crimson mist Take me away Shapes cease to exist All borders decay My kingdom is yours To burn and to wreck So forevermore I'll call you Alshinecheri Via ancient winds Comes the voice of the living night Whispering her name Black turns white I carve her name Into the sky And open my eyes Alshinecheri I will burn at night I will feast on blood I will wash away In a vehement flood Like a river of coal Through a marble landscape Her voice it beckons It calls my name.

When stars emerge In dying eyes Moons slowly surge On feverous skies Silence will purge Their heavenly cries Scars are still burning New visions arive The wheel is returning Onwards is strife The child must start learning When kissed by a knife Beautiful and damned Trumpets shall sound Rise from the well No longer unbound Chained to the spell A body is found Welcome to hell Forever aligned Bonded by grief Depictions assigned To rape like a thief When new skin is signed There'll be no relief From my rotting body Weeds shall grow And I am in them And that is eternity.

about

Ever restless, Denmark's SLÆGT present an exclusive new 12" mini-album for IRON BONEHEAD, Beautiful and Damned. This MLP is aptly titled: Beautiful and Damned shows SLÆGT shedding its previous skin, from the celebrated Ildsvanger debut earlier this year, into something more kaleidoscopic, multi-hued, and yet equally menacing. Gone is the blown-out black metal grimness of SLÆGT Mk I; here, with the lineup now doubled in size and live rituals more frequent, a sort of blackened epic metal emerges. Songs are no longer minimalist exercises in lurking menace; instead, the full furl of classic heavy metal's narrative powers are played out across the three main epics of Beautiful and Damned, buttressed by an indeed beautiful acoustic instrumental. Comparisons can be drawn to comrades Reverie, who now share members with SLÆGT, but more than mere on-the-surface stylistic similarities, it can be argued that these impossibly energetic youths are drawing from an eternal wellspring of inspiration, and SLÆGT, for their part, are keeping a still-fertile toehold in black metal. Beautiful and Damned closes one chapter, and begins another...
