Long is the way
is the backwoods trail
through a myth
through a verse
through intestines
less a man
more a beast
with pots of flesh
and dreams of dreams
but the lungs,
but the lungs with the air
blew the husks to the birds.
a path between the paths
coiled, umbilicus.
into
the grime
and the filth
and the lice
in their beds
to the worm
with a mouth
in the dirt
down into
the troughs
with their fucking snouts
surely the Lord
is in this house.
sweat of the meat
for a hole in the ground
and the scraps off a feast
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. sachavonkarl74
With their deviant kind of Black Metal, White Ward are far away from mediocre. If you’re looking for something different and sophisticated try these guys! You won‘t be disappointed! Sælzer Bub
