The emperor has opened his gates.
For my dark desires that I crave.
Piteous creatures infest this land.
Encouraging my thoughts and despair.
That wicked voice that whispers to me.
From the blackened halls.
Drawing me further into the realm.
The realm of the dark epoch.
Enforcing my darkest and regretful moments.
Flooding my psyche with this torment.
This river of pain is leading me a new path.
Where I will guide, the affliction that is deserved.
The emperor has opened his gates.
For my dark desires that I crave.
Piteous creatures infest this land.
Encouraging my thoughts and despair.
That wicked voice that whispers to me
Echoing down to the blackened hall.
Drawing me further into this realm.
The realm of the dark epoch.
The emperor has opened his gates.
With open arms to my grave.
I await my time for the perdition.
Where my lament will wallow away.
As the crows pick at what is left of me.
The ruin, that is I.
Will be home to the next Emperor.
For the Dark Epoch.

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228

Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan
Finnish death metallers leaven infernal dynamics with triumphant, infectious melodies, striking a compelling balance between grit and grace. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 25, 2023

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
