lyrics
Oh!
I’m picking up a trail that leads into the snow Fate has never been so pleasantly distant before Tall, the fir-trees are conveying a sense of tranquilizing lust for hibernation in frost Gone, my presence in an ever shrinking prison None can combat this absorbing malediction
I rid myself of moral truth
Where I go an animal belongs
On the throne as god
Nature is the mother of darkness Source of the powerful magical temple of
the black flame
Caressing, cold magic glow;
The winter in bloom
The striking wide wings of the north; The winter in bloom
Failure is the core of all human miscarriage Shame and vanity, so luminous and defect
I must throw my face in a bowl of boiling acid to put up with that your heart is still pumping I paddle trough tectonic plates of afterbirth, dive in whirlpools amongst marshes and dirt I rid myself of moral truth
Where I go an animal belongs
Seeking higher knowledge in nature World abjuration by oath carved in flesh, skin and soul
Where I go an animal belongs on its throne as god
Oh!
I’m picking up a trail that leads into the snow Fate has never been so pleasantly distant before Tall, the fir-trees are conveying a sense of tranquilizing lust for hibernation in frost
I paddle trough tectonic plates of afterbirth, dive in whirlpools amongst marshes and dirt I rid myself of moral truth
Where I go an animal belongs
Seeking for a hole to dive into Building a moat with the hands of foreclosure Struggling to exit this cocoon
For beyond its moldy walls
I see the winter in bloom
Where I go
An animal belongs

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

Mesarthim ne communique pas de manière directe. The Great Filter est une des très rares exceptions puisque le duo australien utilise le morse au début et à la fin du morceau et ce n'est sûrement pas à nous que ce code est destiné. The Great Filter, c'est une bouteille à la mer — ou à la Voie Lactée — qui permet à Mesarthim de montrer à d'éventuelles formes de vie ce que l'humanité sait faire de mieux : c'est une œuvre épique, plus rapide et agressive, avec un sens du spectacle et du sublime !

A quelques jours d'intervalle par rapport à The Great Filter sort TYPE III, un deuxième E.P. qui est calqué sur exactement le même moule : il s'agit d'une piste unique qui atteint presque la vingtaine de minutes et dans lequel le black metal atmosphérique de Mesarthim prend une dimension théâtrale et épique. Malgré tout, il ne s'agit pas d'un simple clone : TYPE III est plus lent et oxygéné et laisse la parole aux synthés, avec violons et pianos mis en avant. Un très bel alter ego magique !

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
