lyrics

Godless ruler, invoker of the malediction
Decaying, spreading the affliction

Oblivious unending gaze
Labyrinth of endless daze

A curse was brought upon us
By a single twisted mind
Locked away in halls of madness
Festering as time went by

Dreaming as his mind went through
The point of no return
Yet clinging to this world
Hands clenched upon the throne

Staring into the abyss
Idle and alone
The king was made the vessel
For the doom to come

The dream transpired to others
As the veil became weeker
And as more were enslaved
Horrors came from beyond the gates

The void was brought upon you
By a single dreaming mind
Locked away in nothingness
Madness came as time went by

When the morning came
The sky was black as night
Blood flowed down the streets
Denizens crawled in plight

Surrender to insanity
Vessel to the savagery
Devoured by the affliction
Slaves to the malediction

Most noble and ever loyal
This city is your grave

A torn womb where madness seeps
The wound that ever bleeds

Where nightmares come to life
A grave calling lullaby

Godless ruler, invoker of the malediction
Decaying, spreading the affliction

Oblivious

A curse was brought upon us
By a single twisted mind
Locked away in halls of madness
Festering as time went by

Dreaming as his mind went through
The point of no return
Yet clinging to this world
Hands clenched upon the throne

Staring into the abyss
Idle and alone
The king was made the vessel
For the dread to come

The absence of the monarch
Condemned the land to nothingness

Were life was once a boon
Now sustenance to impending doom

This city devours

Nightmares brought to life
By a single twisted mind
Hunters in the dark
Feasting on mankind

Decaying as his eyes observed
The horrors of beyond
Drifting from this world
Unable to return

Staring from the abyss
Idle and alone
The king was made the vessel
A ruler to no one

Kathodos
by Serpent Column

supported by 28 fans who also own “The Vessel”

Ultime album de Serpent Column, Kathodos est une perle rare de black metal. Ce qui saute aux yeux, c'est le soin apporté à la dimension technique : Theophonos créé un ensemble d'une cohésion parfaite et utilise des jeux d'échos avec des riffs dévastateurs qui vont et reviennent de manière différente ("Kathodos"/"Anodos", première et septième pistes, etc.). Cet album est en somme un moyen de nous enfermer dans un palais des glaces sur lequel Theophonos tire à coups de boulets de canons. Insane ! Jordan Vauvert
