And god did not speak of peace
as he marched through flesh and blood
of ethereal hallows
in coldblooded grace.
The eradication of voice, will and passion.
The extinction of wisdom and truth.
As the foul waters,
and the clinching mud
reveal a glimpse of distant heights.
Everything has vanished from the essence.
No recollections are visible in traces.
As man staggers, trembles and falls in awe
of the ancient symbols above his burning temples.
As I awaken
from dreams as deep as the cosmos.
A dream of serpents at the gates of nether.
Fear transforms into flesh.
As nightside spirits walk the earth.
To the throats that swallow whole the world
as the pyre at the end of our days.
And to percieve clearly,
and to embrace deeply
a new-formed essence of life.
Everything has vanished from the essence.
No recollections are visible in traces.
As man staggers, trembles and falls in awe
of the ancient symbols above his burning temples.
And I shall not speak of peace
as I walk through flesh and blood
of ethereal hallows
in coldblooded grace.

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

This album is just incredible, majestical. Is that even a word? A true masterpiece, and one that I dont play that often so that it doesn't get overplayed and soften the blow you get each time fromthis heavy slab. halfmartian

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
