lyrics
He:
A new dimension, enter inside
One last chance at life?
Their grand decision, my requisition
Left to their eyes, I only pray they hear my cries.
Viduus: The elders await your plea
Convince them your being is worthy
Reclaim your form, renter the realms of time
Your place is not above.
He: For now I know that I was wrong, after all.
And what was it worth to, always be right?
No selfish thought will consume my being
[I stand before them]
He:
I had it taken all away in a hopeless journey to the sun,
inherit life again, to see growth in the one.
My decision decimated, the life I chose to waste.
My perception now revised with light.
He:
A timeless place, formless beings,
their outstretched limbs reach for manifested eyes.
They see me clearly, I feel their gaze
Questioning my will, changing my once stone ways
The Eyes:
You took your own life, such great actions infinite,
we can not change the past.
Viduus: This soul has shown me strength, I believe in his will to change
And like us, he is able to create.
He:
But then I gave it all away in a hopeless journey to the sun. Inherit
sight again to see growth, in the one.
The veil lifted as I embrace acceptance.. my perception grows
[They reach for my eyes sinking underneath.
Overwhelmed by light. Blinded]
He:
I see all, as my vision, becomes infinite
[The solar rays, needling under my eyes
All this time spent searching for my place.
I see the fluid, the movement and hear a faint breath, two hearts beating as one; a resolve]
[the pain of death is not the first pain felt]
He:
Connected, I now travel beyond.
Devoid of form, but aligned with space.
Now I will watch you grow, and in time
Our meeting will come.
[I step into my grave under the now barren skies, sinking lower into an
unknown. The glow of my eyes shining through the heavy sand. I was here all along, it was always leading to this]
A new dimension, enter inside
One last chance at life?
Their grand decision, my requisition
Left to their eyes, I only pray they hear my cries.
Viduus: The elders await your plea
Convince them your being is worthy
Reclaim your form, renter the realms of time
Your place is not above.
He: For now I know that I was wrong, after all.
And what was it worth to, always be right?
No selfish thought will consume my being
[I stand before them]
He:
I had it taken all away in a hopeless journey to the sun,

My decision decimated, the life I chose to waste.

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

Un album dense et une atmosphère oppressante. Mélodique et puissant. 3/5

The Enduring Spirit
by Tomb Moldsupported by 4 fans who also own “The Infinite Eyes”
Extremely inventive and multifaceted sci-fi prog death, just like iridescent ethereal world on the cover art. Best band's achievement up to date. And easily in 2023 AOTY list

Culinary-themed melodic death metal outfit cook up a smorgasbord of fierce solos, tight percussion, and cheeky, foodie-approved screeds.
