Spear and Hammer
from The Weakness of Virtue by SOULMASS
lyrics
Golden in sunlight their armor gleams
Eyes fixed, determined intensity
The dragon slayer sworn to his king
Protects with honor and loyalty
Before you stand
Masters of spear and hammer
Fight for your life
Face the onslaught to ascend
Run, dodge, and roll
Seize opportunity or die
The tide has turned
Ornstein takes a mortal strike
The knight collapses
Gripping his spear to meet the end
Fallen in battle
No greater honor to achieve
Smough's hammer comes down
His laughter echoes gleefully
At virtue's weakness
A bloodlust knows not friend from foe
The lightning cracks
As pillars crumble beneath his mighty swings
Cannibal yearning to eat your corpse
Merciless evil without remorse
Psychotic laughs as he crushes you slowly
Immense destruction and death is so pleasing
Eyes fixed, determined intensity
The dragon slayer sworn to his king
Protects with honor and loyalty
Before you stand
Masters of spear and hammer
Fight for your life
Face the onslaught to ascend
Run, dodge, and roll
Seize opportunity or die
The tide has turned
Ornstein takes a mortal strike
The knight collapses
Gripping his spear to meet the end
Fallen in battle
No greater honor to achieve
Smough's hammer comes down
His laughter echoes gleefully
At virtue's weakness
A bloodlust knows not friend from foe
The lightning cracks
As pillars crumble beneath his mighty swings
Cannibal yearning to eat your corpse
Merciless evil without remorse
Psychotic laughs as he crushes you slowly
Immense destruction and death is so pleasing

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release!

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.
