The glaciers
Titanic mountains
Frozen forest
Shadows fall
Darkness devours
Eternal night
In the solstice’s
Sallow moonlight
Snow blindness
Razor wind
Faceless frostbite
Glacial tempest
Gales of northwind
Lost in snow
Distant fires
Spectral glow
All is silent in the night
Oceans of quiet in polar light

Krampus is watching
Count your children

Bound to this frigid darkness
Embers dying
Like falling leaves
All is cold
All is candlelight

The Great Hunt
Rolls across the sky
Pagan thunder
Hyperborean night
Howl of the angels
Frozen debris and ice
Alpine basilica
Black forest frostbite
Fading star in the East
Messianic prophecy
Holy empire of cracked skin
Hibernal holy man
Ancient secrets
Unknown to me
A thousand arctic leagues
The slumber of a polar sleep
Falling asleep
Fading to starlight
Siberian frostbite

Christmass Longyearbyen, Svalbard and Jan Mayen
Down through the Pleistocene glaciers before the emergence of sentient man, echoing through the millenia into the alpine forests where indigenous pre-Christian Germanic and Baltic tribes celebrated its coming through nocturnal fires, monsters and hte Great Hunts of Wuodan, Christmass is everywhere and nowhere, ever-walking a funereal march in the bleak snowblindness of eternal midwinter. ... more
Christmass recommends:
A grim masterpiece. Bleak as a sub-zero eclipse.

Truly brilliant album. The sound of massive Old Gods whispering through the pines.

Aeons in Tectonic Interment
by Tyranny
Crushing walls of Pleistocenic entropy. The groans of a dying mountain.

supported by 19 fans who also own “Vigil”
Powerful, plaintive expression of the fathomless sorrow of our suffering cetaceans and their depthless home, together with the indescribable loveliness of their distant blue-black realm. I feel as much interstellar space here as I do deep ocean, equally crushing and buoying.
