In a never-ending race with time,
this race I've lost before its dawn
The colours of persistence are running pale
Dimming the sunshine of the spotless thought
Driven by inertia I found myself
on the path I've longed
a destination once craved, but now forgotten
Momentum deprives me
of my ability
to observe my surroundings,
to enjoy the outer world
And everything is and was
so beautiful, colorful, warm
But now all is a palette blurred and mashed
and the contrast of colours I am unable to grasp
Ultuulla, Zikru, Sagkal
Still I've burned once already
and I'm fearless before your hell
I shall consume your vital fire, next your ashes
I enclose with stones the circle of eternal fire
Wrapped in static I am numbed in this endless stream of time
I sense the stone's cold embrace
But yet this stone I've seen already
It shines exposed to sunlight and under moonlight it screams
It screams voiceless, it deafens, synchronously it chants
it whispers and it speaks
And reminds me with its speech
timelessness to summon
Timelessness emitting time
But also reason it demands
in order to explain
And I witness how the seed of Oak
is growing in seconds
seconds lasting longer than years, condensed in a moment,
stretching through the ages
I entreat to find this window
while the window for the eyes is sealed
But it's revealed before wisdom, knowledge and will
through it the truth of moonlight sees
If only I could take a glimpse in time that is to come
To see where my path leads and where I will take the fall
Whether I will rise and press on
But the mighty Owl of wisdom awakes in the crown of the Ancient Oak
And its spread wings shall veil the light empowered by the sun
And its massive wings of justice give me back my sight
And I see the window shatter between the Owl of wisdom and myself
And towards the sunset the Owl is fading
Sunset in a sky pierced by the light of stars

Incredible album. Each track flows seamlessly into the next to create a beautiful yet melancholic atmosphere that clings to you like gnarled bramble; beckoning you to discover its secrets. A journey through and through. Aqueous

Winter wind blasted atmospheric black metal from the desolate fields of Siberia. Crisp production and an excellent performance. Grima is a must check out for any black metal fan. 8/10 RJ

Extraordinary work by Antrisch, can't stop listening to it although Black Metal usually struggles to convince me.
Same like for Antrisch's EXPEDITION I: Dissonanzgrat applies: This album is strong from its first sounds of creaking wooden hull to its last sounds of wind and waves, deciding for a favourite track would not do justice for the geniality of the remaining five, the one coming closest to a favourite one could be I FESTGEFROREN - Packeisfalle in my opinion. onkelchristoph
