The angry sky glares at the restless earth below Maleficent desire boils like froth of the cauldron Burning neath the watchful eye of the crone A wall of wraiths come moaning their doomed prophecy to the land The tattered hem of their robe sends electric currents of fear through the hearts of man Gentle rumble contradicts the brutish sky, pale and green like deaths visage translucent, illuminine, shadows dancing, incandescent spectral mirage Phantom breath comes heaving, waves of torment, crooning their will relentlessly as the submissive clergy worship their tyrant's wrath, bending and swaying hypnotically Lo, beneath a trembling sky full of turmoil and corruption the thunderous growls of the diabolical choir chant the spell weaving destruction

Contorting faces in the clouds Changing shape, without sound Deeper and deeper are the shades of grey Oh, something ghastly comes this way Thunder crashing shedding sky Flashing lightning killing time Tempest of the eldest ones The wild hunt has now begun No one is safe, no one gets out alive Solemn process ghastly line Pale faces sanguine eyes Storming death breach the gates men of cloth lie prostrate Breaking clouds starry night Corpses lying no funeral rite Howling wolves and ravens' flight Diabolical cold moonlight

Carnage unleashed after building for centuries Its beating heart is heard in the pounding of hooves Its lifeforce is seen in the growing number of burning rooves If you will not bow to me then I will starve you into submission Let your kingdom be of corpses, your collapse is now my mission Riding strong, wave of apocalypse, horsemen tearing asunder Scorched earth war, thundering storms Despair consuming young and old Cries of death, putrid stench Famine gives way to the plague War and famine are at my request, hail now plague and death A storm of swords, blood and rain, unrelenting, rotting grain Extracting corpses to satisfy your hunger Destruction has been complete as you devour one another

Betwixed the time of sun and moon When western skies a blaze, the eastern darkened herald's doom Affix thy troubled gaze, upon the celestial plane And watch the sleeping sun drift further into a comatose state Oh, darkest nights of howling polar winds Mournful moans of ancient trees, phantoms race through the spectral sky I'm praying for vengeance I'm praying in fury I'm praying the Dark Mother Takes us all back to the stone age A dream of unity, midnight worn vestments and offerings As you have raped the land clean, so now shall you reap Maggots multiply devouring the meats and the fats Stripped clean is the flesh and blood of our mothers being Oh, weary one, please hear our cry, Heave one final sigh, arcing plasma filament explodes I'm praying for vengeance I'm praying in fury I'm praying your fiery breath Takes us back to the stone age Under skies of burning sapphire the dragon arcs its vengeful way Woe unto the earths trembles and shakes as the cosmos come alive in an electric way The trembling of nations shall bring all to their knees The volcanic winter covers the sun, as it reaches its deepest sleep

The winds came howling dirges forlorn and furious Against a velvet backdrop, mysterious The distant silence wept with howls, so serious Yet the snow fell so gentle and curious A rider lone and lantern led became delirious Disturbed was his mental state, Dis piteous Wide eyes he clutched his reins, hope and safety desirous Distracted by memories of folklore, so hideous From perch of stone in secrecy I spied, curious Provocation, subliminal manipulation made him delirious Dangling relic of a bastard son, Dis piteous Blood and rapture craven hunger desirous As the wolf prowls i lick my lips, so serious Mind games played brought him my way mysterious See my eyes cold and severe and furious The last sight you see is my face, so hideous The trees stand in worship of my diabolical rite Congregation gathered primal desire delight Beware the death sentence traveling alone at night The devil preys in sanguine ways, stealing lives from christ The winds came howling dirges forlorn and furious Against a velvet backdrop, mysterious The distant silence wept with howls, so serious Yet the snow fell so gentle and curious

about

This work, lyrically, centers around nature striking back at us for what we have done, our arrogance as a species to think we are the apex, the alpha, that we can overpower that which created us. The Archetypes of old are still well and alive in the psyche, we, the Pagans and Mysticks, are the ones working to rebuild what they tried to wrest away. The Dark Lord and Lady ride, the Wild Hunt, the cleansing.
Plague Driver and Winds of Mourning are really the only two that do deviate from the concept, in a way. They are a coupled story song of vampyrism and a poor soul who is tasked to drive the corpses who have died from plague to their graves, obviously though the source of the plague is in the 2nd song and the cycle repeats.
I, Thravson, am the sole creator and composer of all sounds and words on this album.
