lyrics
Beyond the broken window, the street is deserted.
I clear away the glass; cut my palms in doing so,
Horsefly’s bite. Sharp and brief. Blood spills against the frame.
A plastic bag drifts along the street. Nothing more.
I think I hear a distant cry: it could be anything:
It is hard to believe it human. I wish it were so.
The rain comes now; it spatters the left side of my cheek,
A droplet runs along the nape of my nape.
I enjoy the coldness it brings. I remember the past.
My childhood and all the long years in between,
The loneliness in the wake. How they died
one by one by one: all whom I had loved and hoped to love
again. There is nothing now.
The way the wind sighs makes me think about death.
Up there in those rafters. A spider’s web holds my gaze
for a moment. Then it falls. To the street. Up. Beyond the
sunken buildings and the shorn-off rooftops,
Beyond the hills and emaciated trees,
Stick-like, naïve, as though scrawled by a child.
A darkness is growing there.
Spreading; staining the firmament like spilt paint from a jar
clumsily nudged by the artist’s hand.
Marring the horizon. Drowning the sky.
Obliterating the dying light.
The cover painting (Udslidt by H A Brendekilde, if anyone is interested) and the music is in perfect alignment. So much sorrow, so much despair... Right from the start I can feel my soul wither away with each riff. Still, towards the end of the record I can catch little glimpses of hope in the melodies. A beautiful journey in the bleak reality of existence. vilmosomedve
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
