"Are you proud? Your scorched earth policy has killed nothing. Now you will reap the weeds you have sown. You will have but stones to nourish yourself and nothing but rags to cover your backs from the nuclear winds. We, the usurpers, your very own, from crowns of gold, with crowns of horns, we turn our thumbs down, we throw you to your death, we leave you for the lions, and cast you into the cold. And we place these words in your mouths: 'we thank you for your magnanimity'. You will have but stones to nourish yourselves and nothing but rags to cover your backs from the nuclear winds."
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
