lyrics

Three Rings for the Elven Kings
Under the sky
Seven for the Dwarf Lords
In their halls of stone
Nine for mortal Men
Doomed as they are to die
And one ring born of Mordor
Where the shadows lie

From fire and death it came
And in shadow it will remain
A beacon to foes most fierce
A poison that cannot be healed

One ring to rule them all
One ring to find
One ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind

They crossed the Misty Mountains
They try to hide it from his sight
I am the whispers in your mind
They’ll fight forgotten battles
Not knowing if they can withstand
I am the horror in the night
Betrayed by those who guide them
Ensnared by webs of pain and fear
I can drag you from the light
And on the fiery mountain,
Can strength prevail over the end?
I must return to the Eye

Climbing the mountain of its creation
Wrapped in the evil incantation
Struggles to free his mind from evil’s call
Stood on the brink of glory and wonder
Ring-Bearer’s mind beginning to falter
Whispering shadow echoed in his eyes
Surrenders hope to all temptation
Dooming the hopes of every nation
Evil triumphant where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them, one ring to find them
Deep in the darkness he will bind them
Forging a terror unlike all they know

Masterful use of acoustic passages and synth stuff. This is definitely my favorite black metal-dungeon synth kinda album I've found recently. Each track flows into the next so well, I cannot recommend it enough. Perri

A Pagan black metal masterpiece. Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
