Incandescent torment of all living things’ perception,
sickly visions dark beyond humanity’s conception.
Monumental raging onslaught met with no resistance,
talons poised to rip the very fabric of existence.
It’s the ending, final rending
of a torpor, aeon-long,
set in motion when the ocean
sounded a forbidden song.
Rites completed, life defeated,
at the edges of its span.
Seals were broken, now the woken
starts the holocaust of man.
Heavens roar and waters boil,
fires scorch the fertile soil.
The end of all humanity,
celestial calamity.
Hail the impure!
A species blissfully benighted
will breathe no more,
withering, helpless, blighted.
Facing the end,
an end that was always waiting.
It’s unreverend
to die at the hands of the hating.
Shadows made of flesh, grotesque beyond imagination,
ululate a jarring and cacophonous laudation.
Carnage growing measureless as they are celebrating
the wondrous, lightless kingdom that their sovereign’s creating.
The moribund and obsolete
will shrivel when at last they meet
the unrelenting gods of old
and see true darkness isn’t cold.
Nothing mortal will endure,
just enter into the obscure.
All tellurian life is drained
when The Great Dread is unchained.
It’s the ending, final rending
of a time of ignorance.
Sights upturning all their learning
of the cosmos’ vast expanse.
Now begetting his besetting,
wild, abhorrent progeny.
He’s arisen, left his prison,
animated majesty.
Cultures crushed, creation slain,
it begins his undead reign.
A ruinous profanity,
celestial calamity.
Hail the impure!
A species blissfully benighted
will breathe no more,
withering, helpless, blighted.
Facing the end,
an end that was always waiting.
It’s unreverend
to die at the hands of the hating.
Hail the impure!
A species blissfully benighted
will breathe no more,
withering, helpless, blighted.
Hail the unbound!
A shrouded species is returning.
Darkness is crowned
and the world is finally burning.
Since their formation in 2009 Swedish black metal band Astrophobos have made a name for themselves with their ferocious yet
melodic style of black metal.
Following up on with the critically acclaimed album "Malice of Antiquity" (2018), Astrophobos are now back with their long awaited third album ”Corpus”....more

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74

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

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime.
Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques. Suivez la procession de Батюшка ici : https://sphieratz.bandcamp.com/album/- Jordan Vauvert
