lyrics
In Every blade of grass that shoots from the ground
The animals that graze, the parasites that feed
The rays of the sun that penetrate the darkness
The breeze that carries the rain
The crack of thunder that the breaks midnight silence
The Ebb and flow of tides that carry strange beasts
Where are they now?
Can you feel it around you
The fabric of the cosmos
In another dimension
The screaming of eternity
Boiling, scalding truths
Pour across your mind
Through our mortal eyes we gaze on just a fragment
Distracted by the entanglement of emotions
To peer through the crack, but just a glimpse
The wildest imagination turned inside out
Looking around me I finally see
What had been purposefully hidden away
I can not withstand the horrid sight
These visions I see not designed for my eyes
Father forgive me, now I have learned
But I know now I cannot go back
I tear out my eyes and I still see
The cosmic horror in front of me

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

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.

How to find the right words to praise this work of genius? I already loved their previous album deeply - and still do. But this is seriously next level stuff. It's more refined, sophisticated and so well crafted and elaborated that you can only drop your jaw and drool. Unbelievably good and should be known to each and every metalhead out there. I'm not one to talk about AOTY but this is a candidate to appear in those lists if I ever heard one. Masterpiece 🖤 Go, spread the word 🤘 mourner

Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
