Winter Spells:
Nostalgia with me every night
Plunging into the mysterious magic
Whispering winter spells
That caresses me with memories of a former life
Embracing me with the cold wind
That slides before me

Ahab:
Twilight once fell on the flipside of this ancient stone
Built from the searing ash of a current unbound
And longing grasses once rose grasping at a fading moon
Falling in the temptation of your godhead’s light
These winds once built temples, for the sun
In flurries of frost over a realm in nothingness
A glaring shadow that shone to the heavens above ever so quietly
In the shadow of a willow, a raven foretold of darkness’ first utterance
In the bows of an unmoving ship
On the flat palette like hand of no one
So guide me Ahab
I will follow you in the promise of wonders
So follow me
I will destroy everything you built
And everything you have ever loved
For I am time, and this hand is mine to scar

Bleeding Night:
Cold winter night that captivates me
Let me know your deepest secret,
Reveal yourself to my deep gaze
Full moon, illuminate the path
To the darkest landscapes
Captivated today, my silence has grown
Sadly intense
The shadows surround me
The twilight falls
The night is bleeding

Nocturnal Mantle

Nocturnal Mantle:
Wind howls in my mind
Tears this dark nocturnal mantle
The darkest secrets are revealed before me
In this cold winter night
A deep look lies enthroned
Deep in the forest opens the doors to the unknown
An ancient prophecy has been reflected
In the deep of the night
Spirits resurface between cursed shadows
Before the moon
The mysteries of darkness keep silent the darkest night
Between the deep fog of the forest
The moon illuminates a withered landscape
In silence and pain

Autumn Glare

Autumn Glare:
This frayed mirror
Possesses a brilliant light
A light that takes the fight
Out of long fortold trees
May their decrepit branches
Waver to this galante luster
And may you and I
Fade under this autumn glare
This silhouette sparkles
In the shade of a brilliant light
A light that utters
The waning words of dreams
May these shadows collapse
silently in your muted world
And may you and I
Fade under this autumn glare
And archaic mountains
Collapse to the crying voice of time
May you and I
Transcend under the glare of autumn light
This glare dances with us
Passionately
Under a firm grip
It leads us to finality
And you and I still dance in the eves
Where we were once beckoned
Only by chance in autumn’s surrendering glare

Diminishing Night

Diminishing Night:
Whom walks in the shadow shall spake it all
For whom discovers the wreckage,
Of their ship is to reap of all
He who once told of a beautiful blue night bedazzling and bright
Now must bear the requiem of his fallen stars
Drowning in the silence
Of your meaningless confession
And to the mute utterance of their screams
The sky turned to the detritus fumes of a prophet in angst
All stars glimmered
In the spastic rule of your king
You are no one, you never were and never will be

The Waning Moon has Fallen:
The waning moon falls
The road opens its dark mouth
As I go into the shadows
Like a reverie fading away
Into the thick mist
Darkening moonless
Long walk amongst trees
The breeze freezes my soul
The waning moon has fallen
A million of stars cry
In this night
That whispers
The waning moon has fallen

The Final Hill

|
The Final Hill:
There is a place upon this flat pallette like world
Where the empty white of moors meets a spire like hill
Sitting upon the scalp of this balding plane like an icy crown
It watches the death of those who cease to die
Under the dead luster of a million stars
And in the shroud of forgotten howls
I will fall knowing that the other side I will never reach
But I begin to fade
To join the calm and warmth of vacuity
In the reassurance and comfort of fading
With a million dead and empty stars

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian)

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE
supported by 29 fans who also own “Winter Spells”
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs...

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross!
