lyrics
At the Gates of Winter
The sun does not dazzle the face,
the snake warms on the black stumps
And the bright spirit of nature,
burned in the fires of bonfires.
The clouds have fallen from the sky
and press on forests
Do not wait for heat and light.
Trees are riding on horses during the winter.
And the wind will hear my song
Among white snow, under the thickness of ice
Blizzards blizzard for me
The echoes of endless forests.
December, oh, how close you are.
In your snows of the sea of melancholy.
December, frosts, your children
Oh, how close you are.
And the wolves saturate in the will, the veins tear
Frosts anticipating, bloody completing the way.
Saliva spit hungry for the thickness of the snow and endure
Tearing at night at the throat, winter promises them death.
And the wind will hear my song
Among white snow, under the thickness of ice
Blizzards blizzard for me
The echoes of endless forests.
Blind from the first snow, into the frosty abyss descending
To see the blood of horizons without life, end and edge.
Stay where the clean air, where the clear starry sky
Where there are no thunderstorms, where everything is dressed in white.
Пред вратами зимы
Мчит на конях зима.
Не слепит солнце ликом, на греет змей на чёрных пнях
И светлый дух природы, сгорел в листвы кострах.
Упали с неба тучи и давят на леса
Не жди тепла и света. Мчит на конях зима.
И ветер услышит песню мою
Средь белых снегов, под толщею льдов
Метели, вьюги мне подпоют
Эхом бескрайних лесов.
Декабрь, уже так близок ты.
В твоих снегах моря тоски.
Декабрь, морозы, дети твои
О, как же близок ты.
И волки, насыщаясь, жрут в волю, жилы рвут
Морозы предвкушая, кровавый завершая путь.
Слюной плевать голодной на толщи снега и терпеть
Рвать воем ночью глотки, зима им обещает смерть.
И ветер услышит песню мою
Средь белых снегов, под толщею льдов
Метели-вьюги мне подпоют
Эхом бескрайних лесов.
Ослепнуть от первого снега, в морозную бездну спускаясь
Увидеть кровь горизонтов без жизни, конца и края.
Остаться, где чистый воздух, где ясное звёздное небо
Куда не являются грозы, где в белое всё одето.

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli

A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue. Matt Richardson

If “atmospheric black metal” implies majestic comedowns and dramatic dynamics, this powerhouse instead constitutes anti-atmospheric black metal. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 23, 2021

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-
