lyrics

Melencolia sits amidst the dust of days
Eternity's stretching endlessly before her ageing hands
The trickling life's blood, as the scales of justice flowed
As though she could hear her own death bell toll!

In solace, they gazed upon the corruption bred in Man
insufferable was the air to breathe,
emanating with the stench of their abhorrence
Setting a flame to the sacred incense,
blotting out their putrid miasma
As the great star falls from the sky, the oceans and the streams ran bitter with the taste of Wormwood's blood!

For she whom calls out to the sky!
Beckoning the light to return…
Darkness shall engulf her; insanity crush her soul.
At the barren wastelands the Earth shall stand still,
The Sun silhouetted by the Moon in full.

The earth anew, empty and barren lies at her feet.
She, the Seraphim lay akin to Lucifer enshrined.
In wait for the end, the Lamassu hindered looks on.

...and now behold we cry!
Reign and rain down on this scorched earth of avarice
Caress the sodden ground, heaving with the blood of those most foul
Parched, we lap at the fount of the sacred
There is no one so blind as those who refuse to see

The earth anew, empty and barren lies at her feet.
She, the Seraphim lay akin to Lucifer enshrined.
In wait for the end, the Lamassu hindered looks on.

Blackbraid II
by Blackbraid

supported by 6 fans who also own “Melencolia”

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 RJ

Pareidolia (deluxe edition)
by Demon Lung

Big, lurching stoner doom from Demon Lung, “Pareidolia” is a potent collision of 400-ton riffs and searing vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 10, 2018

Lone
by OAK

supported by 6 fans who also own “Melencolia”

one of the best death doom bands so far. great melodies with great atmospheres. mostly slow, heavy and doomy but sometimes there are these groovy double-bass drum moments wich are pretty fucking cool. if you like death doom and melodic atmospheric black metal, this is for you. Sælzer Bub
