Black Autumn Great demo, which for my ears has a strong old school Carpathian Full Moon vibe to it. Awesome! Plus there's an actually audible bass guitar in the mix! Great stuff! Favorite track: Enlightenment Through Darkness.

flightoficarus (Metal Trenches) I mean, I'm on the cover, so that's cool. Joking aside, highly atmospheric black metal with doomy, depressive vibes. Nice little hints of folk in the melodies as well.

My life before me As if from a dream A never-ending movie Nothing is what it seems Happiness is a lie In my despair, I hide I've no desire to try Such longing inside Where do I go from here? How do I move on? It's so unclear Yet life continues on Where do I go from here? I can't forget the past Memories still so clear The pain seems to last How did I get here? How do I move on? It's so unclear Yet life continues on Where do I go from here? I can't forget the past Memories still so clear The pain seems to last So this is my life Numb and hollow There is no afterlife Only darkness that follows In my restless sleep I dream of a day Where I no longer weep And I have found a way.... out

You are beauty A flower in the weeds Your smile shines upon me And casts the dark away You are beauty A bright white light Your energy illuminates And casts the dark away Our being is formless Our energy is timeless There is no end or beginning We will meet again I have no demons to slay No regret or guilt to shed Life is what it is We will meet again I am awakened now I've delved deep within Though I still miss you We will meet again By our love, the sun shines Casting light upon your face May it last, so we may leave the past We will meet again

We are the masters of creation and ruin The blacksmiths fanning the coals Together we construct the sturdy fires Burning at the edges of control We, the insidious blacksmiths craft Our marvelous creations devised Products of great design and beauty In which the truth is carefully disguised We are the blacksmiths of mankind We are crafting the end of the Earth We craft in thoughtful silence Preying upon your self-worth We are the blacksmiths of mankind We are masters of damnation We craft alluring works of beauty Feasting upon your validation Lifeless objects are given breathe They become so highly desired Fashioning beasts out of mankind Filth and lies so eagerly devoured We are the blacksmiths of creation We are the blacksmiths of damnation We are the blacksmiths of salvation We are the blacksmiths of annihilation

My body is an unsteady vessel My mind is a raging ocean Life is a narcissistic manifestation Of my thoughts and dreams I am but a unwilling passenger Aboard a vessel steadily weakening Besieged by cold, nefarious waves My fate lies beneath the tormented waters My consciousness drifts ungracefully Drowning beneath the dimming surface In passive observation I descend indifferently As the darkness of the depths embraces me The discovery of self-awareness Enlightenment through the darkness Realization ascends from the cold depths A physical end to my existence Being in a metaphysical place No life, death, time or space Material reality erased Perception gone without a trace
