M​ø​rker​æ​d (collaboration with Dispersive Light)

by EGO DEPTHS

supported by
Lost Tribe Sound

Lost Tribe Sound M​ø​rker​æ​d is an incredible dig. Subterranean avalanches of droning electric guitar carve wide-panning trenches on the periphery, as clobbering percussion drudges up the center. While heavy the drums also have a soft dynamic to them, which serves as a comfort as all else crumbles around them. I'd put this up there with some of my favorites, like the percussive rituals of Undirheimar (minus the throat-singing), or the drone metal hybrids of Clavicvla and Kaya North. The production work is ace!

1.
It is when the skies will suffer, and when the dissection from the rust-sharpened words will leak out the black knowledge; it is no one who would see the rain washing down the blood from their wounds, casting oil and acid to the scorched mountain of doom. They will bleed their eyes, seeing nothing but obliteration of the crystal wall, the center of the cosmic power, not much will endure the heat and everything will turn to glass, blinded by the million-sun bright emanation of wisdom. They will refuse their wings in the name of cruel manifestation of ignorance, giving away the vent of fury on desquamative minds that starve upon seeking the miracle, but finding only chains made of bones of previous seekers. They are bright but soon to turn invincibly dark, they consume the time, they are committing their resignation. The sacred temple, the center of all cosmic power has been obliterated. They have resigned and will bring no peace thereafter.

It is the ignition of the unspeakable fear in those who gaze right between the edges of the jaw that holds the wheel of transmigration. Five fortresses that bear five everlasting flames will eternally temper the dagger of sorrow, with the simultaneous burning of the bodies of those who destined to die and to be reborn only to be again the fuel for the five flames of the five fortresses. Consecrating the epistemological boundaries of the existence within the sempiternal wrath of Walse Ngampa will lead to the loss of conscious adhesion to the matrix of being, urging the wrath to be forged by the fire of an unknown origin. The sempiternal wrath of greater strength undergoing the temperament through the five flames of sorrow.

It is a swollen one, which festers and is of bluish color. It is a torn apart and a bitten off by vultures one, eaten by different kinds of worms. It is the one reduced to skeleton, with some flesh and blood held in by the tendons. It is a blood-besmeared skeleton without flesh but held in by the tendons. It is a mummified one, reduced to only skeleton held by the tendons, with no flesh and not besmeared with blood. It is a scattered skeleton all around the ground. It is only the white bones. It is a pile of bones, heaped together. It is the bones that got rotten and became dust.

about

A collaboration split between Ego Depths and Dispersive Light. It is a profound meditation at the burial ground, among the putrefying corpses and the dwindling lights, left by the unprecedented appearances of hungry and malevolent ghosts. They distract, they confess, they devour, they enlighten. They are an omnipresent malevolence in its vilest shape. Go through, rot and feed yourself to the vultures.
