lyrics

Joe Slater is dead, he´s better off this way
His gross physique was not strong enough to carry the cosmic bond
I salute you now, my brother of light
Through the palace I have floated by your side
I have floated by your side

For we are roamers of vast places
Travelers in many ages
We have drifted to the worlds that lie beyond
How little does the earth-self know of life and its extent?
The realm that stretches pass the most cryptic of dreams

For aeons I have strived to leave this carnal prison
The carcass of my former host that now grows rigid and cold
Meet and conquer the oppressor, cease his mockery at last
Meet and conquer the oppressor, slit his throat so I can rise

The fiend I´ll always loath
The fiend that I despise

Tonight I go as nemesis, wearing just and cataclysmic vengeance
Watch me in the sky

Close by the demon star

The light of Algol shall dim besides the brightness of my rage
I must depart, I must depart now
But I know we shall meet again

Perhaps in the shinning mist of Orion´s sword
Perhaps in a prehistoric bleak plateau
Once the solar system has been swept away, aeons from now
In unremembered dreams or some other form

For we are roamers of vast places
Travelers in many ages
We have drifted to the worlds that lie beyond
How little does the earth-self know of life and its extent?
The realm that stretches pass the most cryptic of dreams

Watch me in the sky

Walk Beyond the Dark
by Abigail Williams

supported by 32 fans who also own “To Rise as Nemesis”

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
