A ritual has been done again because chaos now needs to reign Thoughts are left in green Bewitched of all these Spirits of long old ages The trees have survived Follow us into a witches dream Follow us into the endless green An unknown power Coming from the trees Much older than Every human being A ritual has been done again because chaos now needs to reign Follow us into a witches dream Follow us into the endless green

delirio 08:00
Sonho ou realidade Medo ou coragen Fixão ou sentido Delirio Palavras atordoados Pensamentos descontroladas Olhos descontrolados Ouvidos zumbindo permanentemente Delirio Vozes na minha cabeça Delirio Sonho virando pesadelo Delirio Vocé é quem manda! Fala, grita e berra! Você não é, porra! Você não é porra, não!

je suis née 07:17
Je suis née, sans avoir bu du lait du sein de ma mère. J’ai vécu avec le sang déramé par mon père. Sans avoir les yeux, les yeux qui me guident. J’ai jamais eu les mains, les mains qui me protègent. Sans ta voix Sans tes yeux Sans tes mains Je suis née sans être voulue J’ai vécu sans avoir besoin de toi Sans avoir manqué quelqu’un qui me déteste J’ai jamais eu envie de te connaitre Sans ta voix Sans tes yeux Sans tes mains Sans t’amour
4.
It’s hard to learn That in the end No one stands by my side I’m waiting alone for the tide Waiting for something That will never come My life is full of madness I fight my fears alone But the moon is watching over me In her light I will drown my sorrows Can you feel our souls colliding? And you will fight your fears to follow The light of the sun shines on When there’s love, we’re not alone
5.
I am only flames, scream and raging thirst On my body burns the mark of death Like dark water, fast and unknown It almost takes away my breath … it takes away my breath You are the mirror, the rivers are flowing Over your body, into your mind Behind this golden shining ground The dead creatures come back to life … they come back to life I look into your eyes Like into eternity You are the mirror All I want to see I am glowing, dying, a falling star Into the abyss of blue summer moons You are watching from the sky afar An eternal sign, protecting your doom the world’s reflecting in your eyes the world’s reflecting in your eyes

tha he na te 09:22

about

"shEver's Rituals is the best no frills, straightforward Doom Metal album for some time. The Swiss group owe much to the British wave of Death-Doom that spawned Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and Anathema, but while they demonstrate textural adventurousness via subtle variations of guitar sound and vocal style, they resist the urge to overload their immense, compulsive riffs with Gothic frippery (choirs, keyboards and so forth) and instead take delight in their own corpse-dredging heaviness. These atavistic urges are balanced by their propensity for writing well-constructed, memorable songs, which is something of a lost art in Metal."
