lyrics
Salt winds of a sudden gale
were shattering our tattered sails.
While foamy crests before our eyes
shook our boat from side to side.
Frightening abscence of the sun
all of a sudden, it all begun.
Before our eyes, the angry sea
anxious to feed a hungry fish.
Salwater filled my lungs
bitter roughness in the tongue.
Like open graves, the mouths of sea
were swallowing our desperate pleas.
Briny streams flooded the deck
useless amulet around the neck.
A lonely albatross in the sky
was telling us we were going to die.
Turbid waters, blackened sky
furious winds, sudden night.
Awful weather, heavy rain
was almost driving us insane.
otal eclipse of the sun
a soaked bible in my hands
our world was vanishing away
while darkness ate the light of day
It was the time
when the morning star
reigns the night.
The crew moved silently, quietly
as they didn't want to wake up
the beast below our feet.
Her sails shined the whiteness
of the nightdress of a bride.
Her paleness, her innocence
stalked and ravened,
swallowed by the gloom.
Black clouds gathered around the mast
obscure messengers of the blast.
Pregnant of its fatal load
the ocean swelled about to explode.
Frightening abscence of the sun
all of a sudden, it all begun.
Before our eyes, the ocean roared,
somebody cried: ‘Man overboard!’
were shattering our tattered sails.
While foamy crests before our eyes
shook our boat from side to side.
Frightening abscence of the sun
all of a sudden, it all begun.
Before our eyes, the angry sea
anxious to feed a hungry fish.
Salwater filled my lungs
bitter roughness in the tongue.
Like open graves, the mouths of sea
were swallowing our desperate pleas.
Briny streams flooded the deck
useless amulet around the neck.
A lonely albatross in the sky
was telling us we were going to die.
Turbid waters, blackened sky
furious winds, sudden night.
Awful weather, heavy rain
was almost driving us insane.
otal eclipse of the sun
a soaked bible in my hands
our world was vanishing away
while darkness ate the light of day
It was the time
when the morning star
reigns the night.
The crew moved silently, quietly
as they didn't want to wake up
the beast below our feet.
Her sails shined the whiteness
of the nightdress of a bride.
Her paleness, her innocence
stalked and ravened,
swallowed by the gloom.
Black clouds gathered around the mast
obscure messengers of the blast.
Pregnant of its fatal load
the ocean swelled about to explode.
Frightening abscence of the sun
all of a sudden, it all begun.
Before our eyes, the ocean roared,
somebody cried: ‘Man overboard!’

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.
