Hvite Krists dod

Evig minnes vi de tapre som levde under vår hordes hammer
Evig er krigen mot de av lyset, til de moter dodens ansikt, dodens kulde
Vinder av kulde skal komme for å fryse kristenmanns blod

Vårt korstog har begynt og hvert skritt er en stake gjennom hvite
krists hjerte

Vi brenner guds barn på bålet
Vi brenner guds hus
Tidens morke skal dekke for solen
Lerleproten skal knuses

Og hver torne i hans skalle, hver spiker i hans kropp gir liv til nye
Sjeler fodt under dodens mektige trone

Vi går vårt dodningtog til dodens land med de endelose vidder
Når korsfarerne dingler og hvite krists ånd er dod
Når månen skinner blek og ensom, skal lyden av en dodsmarsj
bestige
nordens mektige fjell

Borte var de av guds jord, bak en mork sky månen så rå og
kald
Sungen er siste tone av en gravsang.


In the Mist by the Hills

In the mist of the shadows by the river of the fogpalace
Two great spears and a flag of dominion and hate
Over the chasm riders of doom

And sometimes the water dares to reflect... As days pass by and the light
Is becoming weaker I can watch the death of the sun from my
Enormous view
Still sometimes I thought my own eyes were deceiving me

Many a misty morning's battle. Further on more experience
Soon it's time to hear the sound of the horn in far distance
The deathtone call for war

In the mist by the hills the day darkens
In this forest death rules
Over the chasm riders of doom and face him with a deadly pale
Spectre face
Grim as stone, ride to the deathfields... Blackness and doom
A total eclipse of the sun
Die by the northern trilogy in the mist by the hills


Woods to Eternity

In grey depressive autumn times I wander the woods to eternity searching for
him trying to
remember while the same sky still rules the night.
We _____ then.That these were the children of god.
The ones who betrayed me and my desire

This must be the desolate land, this is the kingdom of the shadowthrone
centuries have gone
beyond time, and we in the land beyond the forest, we burnt them in the
purgatory, them the children of god. Barerly forgotten these times are, but
not for a soul whose rest hasn't been found.


Vikingland

Langt inn i mellom hoye fjell og dype daler
Gjennom norske skoger og morke huler
Bak her en drom for over lysen aar siden
Til hordaland kom pesta og bragte dod og pine
Thekseskogen ble plantet rotter for et rike som skulle komme

Hedningenes land vikingland
Svarte sjelers land vikingland

Mens telemark fosser og bekker enda renner i strie strommer som
Evigheten selv

En nyt tid kom hoor tordenbrakene dundret og jorden skalv
Som naar trollene kriger om hvem som skal herske in jotunheimen

En ny tid kom... Hoor vinteren blaaser og pisker
Det er ikke ly aa finne for den ensomme
Vandrer som maatte soke fred in nordland

Her oppe paa fjellet ved midnattsilden kan man enda se
De komme som ville dyr ut av skogsmorket
Over trellberg...


Dominions of Satyricon

From beyond come the storm
Landscapes turn to ash before my pressured eyes
Nothingness turns to nothingness
And my imagination fades like dustclouds over
This deserted land, feel to now satyricon

Wonder how stormclouds rage
And all you can feel is the cold winds of
Funeral times, timeless they are

He saw lived and died
In these dreams of demons
Wondering how he could open the gate to
Dark medieval times and bring forth to the domains
of satyricon, two great spears and a flag of dominion
And hate

Above it all creations fall
Living for the quest and the search
Dying for the key, living for the domains
Arise northern spirit and come forth under
The might of the castle satyricon


The King of the Shadowthrone

We wander the fields of death... In eternity wandering our own path
Which has been the quest of immortality
Yet to conquer for me - but dreams shall not be torn

He is spirit
He is stone
And he is immortality
The king of the shadowthrone

And he will then conquerer (of death)
Fall as a stone from the mountain
And die, led to destruction
Once he left in you then in the past
Then the _____ should be worthless
Spirit rise from you rest and return for them

I am spirit
I am stone
And I am immortal

Review



Satyricon is one of the more melodic bands from the 'true' norwegian black metal scene. This cd is quite similar to the previous one I think, which is very good melodic black. Especially the first song (just like the previous cd) is very cool. There's even a cool vikingmetal song on it. Anyways, Satyricon is such a legendary band that anyone who likes black metal should get this

Rating: 7.5 out of 10
