In the stars i saw a way lying in the northern sky
When i cry leafs fly away, day's turning to the night
The essence of an accurst rain coming down to earth
The spell of evil hex is done no reason to berirth.
I awaken in the deepest scars of a border fjords
I look around in this mountain ground high above the clouds
In the misty wind i hear her voice screaming her triumph
But in my hand i hold an axe, iron power on the North.
To the Odin i raise my hands
There is no place to the graveyard worms
Give me wisdom to stay unbroken
Give me Power of the North.
I've put all the power in dividing blow
To slay the child of the night
Vegvisir show me the way
To arise like the Vallhalla's light.
Feel the northern magic
All yor deeds are vain
for those who came unbidden
My axe says go away!
I appeal to the ancestors
To banish the conjured force
It's time to show my enemies
The Power on the North.
Thor, the mighty God i know you hear my silent cry
I promise that i'll find a way by every little sign.
For one who was born by norhern sky no reason to live in fear
My only question is why life gives so many tears.

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74

Gorgeous blackened death-doom with powerful melodic moments and a truly enthralling atmosphere. I recommend this even if you don't usually go in for slower-paced metal, these guys are absolute masters of holding your attention. Slut Aus Nord
Another scorcher from the phenomenal one-man black metal outfit STARER, with mind-flaying riffs and eerie tremolo-picked melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 31, 2023
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023

Sorrowful indeed. Utterly beautiful blackened doom metal with melody that draws out a cathartic release. Its works like these that have me believe what Schopenhauer said about music was true, that it speaks truth to what is at our most core. Camelus Dromedarius
