lyrics

Inevitability
Everything ends
The waves of time will crash upon the shores
And wash away what we have made

Let it be
Let it just remain
Let it stay the same
Nothing matters in reality’s wake

Ananke, reach out and touch me
Carry me into the endless shadow of the water
Undying, eternal
Forever, forever, forever…

Let it fall to ruins
Let it fall away
It all decays in the end
Life is just the slow path to oblivion

Dereliction, desolation cometh
Escape is a useless prolonging
Acceptance is the breath of life
Believe in naught but death

From whence emerged life?
To there, so shall it return
Washed away in a flood of blackness
Never to know purpose

Ananke, reach out and touch me
Carry me into the endless shadow of the water
Undying, eternal
Forever, forever, forever…

Let it fall to ruins
Let it fall away
It all decays in the end
Life is just the slow path to oblivion

Undying, eternal sorrow
Let me lie in a pool of despair
Do not cry out to him
He never heard you before and he won’t start now

Undying, eternal sorrow
Let me lie in a pool of despair
Do not cry out to him
He never heard you before and he won’t start now

Let it fall to ruins
Let it fall away
It all decays in the end
Life is just the slow path to oblivion

Blackbraid I

supported by 14 fans who also own “The Derelict Tower”

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub

Blackbraid II
by Blackbraid

supported by 12 fans who also own “The Derelict Tower”

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

Вечное

One of the best metal albums I've heard this decade. Has a mournful, one of a kind atmosphere that has yet to be replicated by just about any other band. 10/10 honeycombguy
