Where wind-worn rocks reveal
A talus fell face of interstice.
A conscious evolved into emergence
Borne as a grain of self buried within the stratum
Survey the expanse below and bask in brooding gleam
Follow the scant sunlight to where it greets the fellfield.
I soar on lofty wings
A hoary fledged unfettered soul
As a vestige forged within the will of becoming…
Beyond horizons reach
A region comes forward to meet us
To rest in the return
Of the abyssal expanse of self-belonging.
And the timelessness of an ancient mountain…
Where time cannot be in an absence of eternity
But as an absence of time would instill no presence of mind
Can truth be borne on one’s shoulders
Within this realm of causality?

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

Melodic, almost pagan black metal out of Iceland with some of the most aggressive vocals I've heard in the genre. It's balls to the walls from the first note with few respites, but its melodic enough to not overstay its welcome. Jeff Wilson

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
