Moose cult rising
As empires are falling
Under the weight of empty promises
Drowned in greed
Apathy, entitled legacy
They turned away from the warning signs
There for all to see
Complicit in the crime
Unending quest for more
Never satisfied
Moose cult rising
As empires are falling
Dreams for a future dead
Every culture leaves a trail of failure
Primal urge to live beyond its ….means
Tapping abyssal well
Diversion certain road to hell
Moose cult rising
As empires are falling
Under their own weight
Moose cult
Reconnected with the living earth
Severed long ago

Recrimination for taking a stand
Targeted demolition of body and mind
Dare to obstruct progress’s way
Burning bodies left at the gates
Intimidate, construct another cage
Smothering dissent, containing the rage
The righteous code, a willingness to die
To protect against imminent demise
Golden chains harness your will
At one with nothing, no purpose still
The hills are fed, the seas run red
With the blood of dead idealists

Dire Logic
02:17
|
|||
|
Who tends that fire as hatred burns
Outrage as always will be forged
From a moving target
Prone to dire logic
Immersed in lies and isolated from reason
Like a weak animal broken off for the kill
There is no future in selfish ideology
Merely a Deep state of idiocy
Dire logic prone

No. Really.
07:56
|

Slowly disappear into darkness
Diagnosis, a relief, became a superpower
Get busy living or lay down to die
Rhetoric, beautiful as brutal
Entire narrative built around an enigma
Get busy living or lay down to die
Is there light in the dark?
Is there hope in silence?
Or are we the first that dare not dream
greater dreams
I could turn my face from the stars that bore me
Or let evil reign, when good people do nothing
Put poison in their bodies, turn fertile land to dust
Right is wrong I know that now
So deeply submerged in the great lie
Spent decades achieving zero
Effecting no real change
Grotesquely twisting in the wind
A future hung out to dry
Endeavour to set an example that will be
A symbol of aspirational possibilities
Get busy living or lay down to die. No. really.
A motivating force
To stand resolute
On the edge of hopelessness

Two Sides to Every Folly
05:01
|
|||
|
Fate of mankind, decided by the twin threats
Of hubris and stupidity
Financing extinction, subsidizing arrogance
Active disregard
Exposed for who you really are
A fearful manchild with no coherent purpose
Standing firm in the face of reason
The irony of complaint
Lessened opportunities
False state of a diminishing world
Two sides to every folly
Equality can only be established
Under the rule of equity and equilibrium
Vital and necessary
Nil growth and an overhaul
Of human civilisation
In the firing line
Martyred for the cause
We had come so far to gamble everything
On short term gain
Began with fire, fed by air
Restore the Earth

Mountain
06:10
|
|||
|
Symbol of permanence
Desert in the sky
Cold winds blow in the death zone
A test of all living endurance
Finding these extremes, that have always been
And always will be
Battle for life and death, mountain and stream
As to a mountain, mankind dwarfed
In Ten thousand years
When the mountains still stand
Even if we fail
The stone will Weather the flames, defiant
And in a million years if the mountain has fallen
And turned to dust
All traces otherwise gone
Some remnant remembers our time in the sun
|

7. |

Rose from obscurity
For a simple truth
To shout when others stay mute
Lighting the spark that took hold
Like a wildfire across the plane
The curse of being born into a doomed generation
Inherited a dying age, destruction aeon
Called a poor misguided child -
Corrupted mouthpiece of some far reaching conspiracy
Preserving the pale blue dot, nothing else matters
Everyone that has ever lived will be erased
Night draws in, the dusk of mankind
Under attack by cruel venom
Yet prevailed, The girl that saved the world
Forced change to wicked ways
Pathetic rule, fractured power
Fortress of straw. in its final hour
Foundations shaken apart
Earthquake of evidence
Cold hard data
Never take for granted, our Earth ship
Voices raised, to roar down empty words
If I were to be judged
I would stand or fall
With the girl that saved the world

Excellent. Sweden always know how to death metal. Reminds me a little of Hypocrisy somehow.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.

Nel Nome Del Codice

The eerie grandeur of horror film pipe organ music gets an industrial lift on the latest killer from Keygen Church.

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10
