Empor aus nassen Gräbern
They say I passed away, when the sea went rogue
The salty abyss was to be my grave
I descended into darkness and exhaled my final breath
And cleansed my soul from the yearning flesh
I drift away through forlorn tides but cannot leave
The endless void devours my feeble screams
Submersed by the depths I crave for my death
Yet the gods will not oblige
At night I walk through moors
And the forests I called home
To seek redemption for my tortured soul
I call upon my kindred
Yet the plague got to them first
All burnt to ashes
I was abandoned in despair
None is left to remember me
None is left to speak my name
None alive to unchain my soul
And to rid me from perpetual pain
None is left to remember me
None is left to speak my name
None alive to unchain my soul
Before the rise of dawn
I stray the mists of barren coasts
With the shadows that share my fate
I am hunting for the guilty prey
I victimise your flesh
Leave depraved a maimed corpse
You ́ll die accused by my cold hand
Another servant of my ghastly urge
Veiled is my sight as the moon behind the clouds
No light to guide me from my vicious path
Death did not end me, I will linger in demise
A sentient abhorrence in the void
I rise again to avenge my grave, to gain at last redemption
Submersed by the depths I crave for my death
Yet the gods will not oblige
At night I walk through moors
And the forests I called home
Sieh dich nur vor
Ich stieg heut Nacht empor
Folg deiner Spur im Sand
Greif bald nach deiner Hand

Of Stone and Dust
As the day evades the night
So silent lies the perished landscape
At the gates of meanly dwelling
A visitant of judgement enters
Made of bliss and golden light
They were five by number
Grudging effigies ten eyes frozen
Staring from the otherside
Hidden in the hollows
What is above shall remain above
What is below shall remain below
Their brethren well concealed
With no sense for lurid beauty
Malformation, deformation
Unsightly hideous duty
And so the words were spoken
Into the gleaming faces
Their pristine spirits broken
With a glimpse of forlorn graces
What is above shall remain above
What is below shall remain below
And so the wretched spawn fades
Drawn into the depths of the dark earth
A tomb under a moonlit megalith
Gnarling spells and hexes
Gorging roots and debris
Rustling limbs and corpses
Screeching cuss and curses
Lurking hell and haven
Bracing fear and terror
Never to wander along the green
Never to linger beyond the silence
But always bound by force
Stone and dust above
Never to smell the air of autumn
Never to rise with the gust of spring
Always cursed to seek and to creep
And to nourish the blaze
The blaze of burning desire for salvation
Deep inside the lair, with thoughts of vengeance
Keeping their dead eyes on lucid dreams

HALLIG Bochum, Germany
HALLIG is a fascinating mixture of fast and melodic Black Metal, evoking images of depths of dark waters, madness, and transcendence, adorned with nordic melodies. Harsh screams can be found as well as striking, clean vocals. Raging guitars lead into deceptive silence just to rise up again and unleash the next attack. Surprising solos and acoustic melodies give the music of HALLIG a unique note. ... more

The atmosphere on this record is amazing dark and beautiful almost spiritual at some points and crushing at others every song gave me goosebumps at some point

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder

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!!
