Saturn is fallen, am I too to fall?
Am I to leave this haven of my rest?
This calm luxuriance of blissful light
All that is left of my lucent Empire
Deserted, void, nor any haunt of mine
The blaze, the splendor and the symmetry
I cannot see, but darkness, death and darkness!
Despair not, oh Titan of the Sun
We shall reforge your once glorious bastion
And bathe in your everlasting strength
All of our ancestral powers lies shattered, forlorn and awaits our renewal
Those who aspire wisdom and truth will immerse in his flames
Is this the end, or a new beginning?
The worth of mine haven decreased
Shall the sinful works of the evil bring the… Fall?
No by Tellus and her briny robes
Over the fiery frontier of my realms
I shall advance and bid Saturn to take his throne again

I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer

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. sachavonkarl74

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf
