Summoned from the sacred grove
Born from the bones of the pike
We are becoming, we are the chosen
Willows are weeping, the roots are crying,
the forest is dying
Born from the fangs of the owl
We are becoming
Summoned from the sacred grove
Born from the fangs of an wolf
We are becoming, we are the chosen
Willows are weeping, the roots are crying, the forest is dying
Born from the antlers of an elk
We are becoming, we are the chosen
Two wolves laid beside her
Into the twilight vastness

Sound of the oars
The Fog sneaks in
The dark waters sleep no more
Drop down the anchor
Dive towards the abyss
Let the hunt begin
The mouth of the Kraken, the gold and the fortune
Cold white ghost of the sea
As the death embraces the men set to the sea
Below the thunders of the upper deep
The night has fallen
The beast is awaken
The dark waters rise in fury
Prepare the pikes
Cast down the nets
The Maelstorm and the battering waves
The mouth of the Kraken, the gold and the fortune
Cold white ghost of the sea
When the death embraces the men set to the sea
Below the thunders of the upper deep
The mouth of the Kraken, the gold and the fortune
There it had laid for ages in the slumber of green
When the death embraces the men set to the sea
Only to find the grave in the deep
Yar! The great white ghost of the sea!

Cimmerian Darkness

|
From the edge of the vastness
Roots grow outwards from within
The world and the wonder
has lost all of it’s meaning
The light is growing weaker
Like of the fire of the flies
Dimmed by light so much darker
Can’t seek no guidance
when there is a lack night sky
To touch the darkness to find the light
One path is set before thee
Two roads divergeging
Three stars aligned to show you the way
One quest is set before thee
But two must take it
Thrice the path will wear down thee
From the darkness to the light
Sore eyes have no eye sight
Trembling to find firm ground
A cimmerion darkness surrounds us
To touch the darkness
to find the light
Our tears eternal
Will reflect our cries
The cimmercian darkness
will arise
One path is set before thee
Two roads divergeging
Three stars aligned to show you the way
One quest is set before thee
But two must take it
Thrice the path will wear down before thee
One path is set before thee
Two roads divergeging
Three stars aligned to show you the way
One quest is set before thee
But two must take it
Thrice the path will wear down before thee

Hallainen maa alla jalkojeni, nuortuvat oksat ovat katuneet iäksi
Hyinen on veden hauta, kalmani vajoan, luoksesi
Ota minut vastaan, syleile iästi
Kuulassaa virrassa lehdet tummuneet,
pukevat ne kuun päälleen sekä talven kirkkauden
Elämän virrasta kohti kuolemaa,
Talvi ottaa vallan kunnes valo taas uutta rakentaa
Hallainen maa alla jalkojeni, nuortuvat oksat ovat katuneet iäksi
Hyinen on veden hauta, kalmani, vajoan luoksesi
Ota minut vastaan, syleile iästi
Vihdoin luonna isien, alhaalla väen veden
Puuta ei arkkuni, sillä syvyys on uurnani
Tuonen neito astelee alttarille
Hyinen syli kaunosti hyväilee ja lopulta iäksi nielaisee
Hallainen maa alla jalkojeni, nuortuvat oksat ovat katuneet iäksi
Hyinen on veden hauta, kalmani, vajoan luoksesi
Ota minut vastaan, syleile iästi
Ota minut vastaan
Syleile iästi
Ota minut vastaan
Syleile iästi
Vastaan
Vastaan
Ota minut vastaan
Syleile iästi

The Vault Of The Night

Wandering through the vault of the night
Her sparkling dress blue as the night sky
Wandering through the vault of the night
Her touch so cold it dims the moonlight
Aaaaargghh!!! Tear shaped flock of magpies in the sky
Wandering through the vault of the night
Herr Crystal ship descending to the violet night
In the crystal forest, her sparkling yellow crown, sets it’s blaket over the frozen sky
Foreknowing the passage to the winter night, the entrance is open the vault of the night
Wandering through the vault of the night
Her sparkling dress blue as the night sky
Wandering through the vault of the night
Her touch so cold it dims the moonlight
In the crystal forest, her sparkling yellow crown, sets it’s blaket over the frozen sky
Foreknowing the passage to the winter night, the entrance is open the vault of the night

Fingers are grasping, tearing pieces
Birch bark splinters blood grows under the nails
The Summer is dying, the rivers are freezing,
The gust of wind as
the breath disappears and the sky turns to nothing
We are descended from the mountains
Once herculean now are lost
We are descended from the mountains
Once eternal now fading away
We are descended from the mountains
The sons of the snow capped tops
We are descended from the mountains
The daughters of the wind and ice
The face of the mountain Casting it’s shadow
The vast emptiness The trackless snow ahead
The tears run down the cheek, like the vale beneath the feet
Looking up to the winter sky, seeing only the rider with the scythe
As the land sets to sleep under a frozen blanket
The last tears of the autumn turn to ice
And The snow is a sparkling a mirror to the night sky
A map to the wanderer above the sea of ice
We are descended from the mountains
Once herculean now are lost
We are descended from the mountains
Once eternal now fading away
We are descended from the mountains
The sons of the snow capped tops
We are descended from the mountains
The daughters of the wind and ice

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10

This band has skyrocketed into my top 10 and there's no doubt why. How can one be as consistent and heavy as them?

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.
