lyrics
»I had a dream, which was not all a dream.
The bright sun was extinguish’d,
And the stars did wander darkling in the eternal space,
Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth swung
Blind and blackening in the moonless air;
And men forgot their passions in the dread
Of this their desolation; and all hearts
Were chill’d into a selfish prayer for light.«
- Ld. Byron
Before the birth of time as the mealstrom reigned
A second counted years and aeons passed in a trice
Chaos embraced the darkness, it filled eternal space
No voice, no sound, no life - just endless night
Whose hands did wield the power to let the stars align
To let the furthest suns bear light and galaxies conflate
Or was it just an accident, an occurrence without reason
The arbitrariness of nature - forecast of the apocalypse
The Godless Divinity
Inconceivable
Intangible
Inscrutable
Unimaginable
Creatio ex nihilo, the origin of it all
Mankind is nothing but a moment within a higher plan
Creation out of nothingness, it will go down in nothingness
All will drown into a vortex of oblivion and dust
A sceptre brought by muses to the one who sang the truth
Six ancestral forces arose out of chaos’ soul
Uranos built the sky, Ourea forged the mountains
Pontos gave birth to oceans, Hemera brought the day
Myths and legends tried to find the answer
To what is right and what does hide behind the shadows
There must be something way beyond our notion
Who can tell and unveil the secret of life
Whose hands did wield the power to let the stars align?
The arbitrariness of nature, godless divinity lies within
No voice, no sound, no life
Let there be light - the sun - mother of existence
Let there be life - mankind - destruction and demise
Let there be oceans - to drown - and purify our souls
Let there be land - a place - to bury our sins
And the Lord said:
»I will multiply thy sorrows and conceptions.
Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee.
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread.
For dust thou art and into dust thou shalt return.« - Genesis 3, 16-19
Galaxies, formed in aeons bear foundations to form new life
Two planetary bodies collide and a long arm of material thrived
Sheared off - the burning moon - kaleidoscopic, the dance of the flames
Glooming in ten thousand degrees
A seething, blazing mass
Gave birth to all life as we know it
Gave ballance to the earth
A fixed orbit around the sun
An elliptic universal berth
Oceans grew and mountains arose
Live evolved over millions and millions of years
»The world was void,
The populous and the powerful was a lump,
seasonless, herbless, treeless, manless, lifeless
A lump of death - a chaos of hard clay.«
- Ld. Byron
Nebular hypothesis - Book of Genesis
Theory of evolution - Faith of creationism
Physical fortuity - Divine tragedy
Molecular accumulation - Scripted destination
Bolometric luminosity - Present numinosity
Electromagnetic radiation - Religious agitation
Kinetic energy - Higher entity
Law of gravitation - Heavenly incarnation
Creatio ex nihilo, the origin of it all
Mankind is nothing but a moment within a higher plan
Creation out of nothingness, it will go down in nothingness
All will drown into a vortex of oblivion and dust
Creatio ex nihilo, the origin of it all
Mankind is nothing but a moment within a higher plan
Creation out of nothingness, it will go down in nothingness
All will drown into a vortex of oblivion and dust

debut was a clear statement of intent
and their second release,
Rattenritual doesn't disappoint.
your taken on a dark emotional journey
with plenty of nods to traditional black metal added with stunning melodic moments. lodmpaul
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
