Forest's Bride

Yearning I returned to land with seeds in my heart
innocent memories
Gloomy sidehills, dark sleeves embraced by the mist
two children untouched by
fear and oppresion bites my soul when getting
closer to the mill
mystic girl with hair black like the raven dark
she's my destiny
Dance with the wolf
under the moonlight
I swallow her scowl
her soul getting hornmad
Does she remember
my love from the childhood
her place in my heart
stays ever eternal
Men getting deranged by her fairness, imma-
culate sorcery,
dealing with the devil coming from nowhere,
leaving before day
breaks, with a new dawn coming I can hear
forest whispers her
name reverberates in the valley lost
in my dreams somewhere
Freezing winds
have banished
the 10 cruel winters
down from the mountains
At the bottom of the abysm
where seeds of the hills meet
where almighty lord lives
The essence of darkness
the eyes of the wolf
light lost in fog
This is the dream
of both you and me
of two souls untouched
by the realm of mankind
Cauldron so deep
where nobody sees
the bottom, the end,
the grave of memories
There's my symphony of pain,
when your heart looks other way,
searching, running, bleeding, creeping,
your veil melts in dark away
Dreams
caught
by fear,
drown the world
grief
melts
the tears
of sorrow,
away to rims of rave
Once she was there with me,
ran to the wood in deep,
went along stealthily,
we touched the heart of nature
Fly with me,
accross declivity,
I feel you dance with me,
this will be our last time
ride

Clouded in the shadow, I have
come into this world, my
wings they're gone with sorrow, many
centuries behind. Like a
fallen angel sheds his tears and
rambles in the night, I can
feel the time will come when my
soul awakes from dark
Awake, from death,
awake, and take breath,
Dreams of freedom,
time's my demon,
spells they bring my light
Looks so fearful
fights my evil,
vanish from my heart
Midnight rape, enslave,
the soul hunt began

Two brothers and one kingdom, two
swords, and between them fight,
tempted by the demon, of great
power and might
The sky's getting dark
ecclesiastic blight, ar-
mies hit by great streak, and
devoured by night
Time has passed through many years
and centuries are gone
forces they're sleeping and
waiting for command
Knights in entrails, with
power embraced, bad
times to arrive, then
ready to rise
Demons and evil, I
call you tonight
raise from your kingdom,
serve then you'll die
Warriors from dungeon, I
seek you tonight,
fight for your kingdom
worst times have come
Glorious palaces, destroyed by time,
magic and swords, reveal they pride
Knights in entrails, with
power embraced, bad
times to arrive, then
ready to rise
Demons and evil, I
call you tonight
raise from your kingdom,
serve then you'll die
Warriors from dungeon, I
seek you tonight,
fight for your kingdom
worst times have come

How far is the land frown, the mortals they don't know
they realm will decease, resumption begins,the
ashes in wind blown, souls screaming in storm,
mastery's beneath, human life defeat
The earth shells and opens the gates
the flames raising from scars, lash a-
gainst the sky, and demons awake,
the doom will come, and wolf will eat the sun
Where men ruined the nature, and green killed by rapture,
life disappeared there, where no one remains, the
ghost of the forest closed door to the walkers,
from world of the pain, fear and distress
The earth shells and opens the gates
the flames raising from scars, lash a-
gainst the sky, and demons awake,
the doom will come, and wolf will eat the sun
Life has turned my dreams to light, no stars on assise,
no magic of the dark night's sky with eyes
stare, where apocalypse dwells, no memory remains,
their spirit trapped in wounds of doom with
hate
If the night, if the light,
dreams of realm, with no delight
Last kingdom, faceless evil,
there's no hope catch my demon
Millions of tears,
wrote letters on your gravestone,
following that queen,
her crown is made of thorns
Walking through the dreams,
where life has lost all their hope,
stand in front of deer,
magic in his hartshorn

Signs engraved in
bark (of) robust tree
knifes sticked under the
names of us
Blood or water,
will show who's out there
whose path has ended
and so had his life
My faerytale has gone,
the blood of us is one
Where
once was the fight
I gave you my heart,
gave you half of my ring,
evil under the sun
has
taken our love
due possession and lust
carry in mind I will wait
till you come
I had a dream,
about a realm,
covered with black
drapery
Had a fight
with beast so grim
flames lashing
so high
We lived in luck
love in my heart,
before I've seen the mystic
land from my sight
with curse so dark that even green
took another path
There's a hill,
where demons sleep,
where no birds sing,
from there's no return,
no sun nor light
a witch so sly
no life after the nightfall
I'm sitting closely
to the fire,
beasts on my side
wolf, bear and lion
Talking to the
demon, witch is
tempting my doom
by turn to stone

Lonely king wanders across his country,
small cabin he found, three fairies inside there,
abandon their dreams, their wishes said loudly,
no one forefeels how real their words might be
Thoughts before matter of fact one day after
Evil has seed meanness, life became horror
Envy the beauty and innocent wonder
Demons inside, tempting darkness to come
One, she's different, so fragile and lonely, her
thoughts so innocent, with secret enshrouded
When door opened, and king entered in her dream, the
fruits of their love the river embraced thee
Thoughts before matter of fact one day after
Evil has seed meanness, life became horror
Envy the beauty and innocent wonder
Demons inside, mastered darkness has come
Spirit, blood
pain, dark
In
front of the church, there is prison so hard, and
small window only, where light enters dark. Till
end of her life only pain, contempt, cruelty,
imprisoned in night, her wounds, suffers agony
The
shade of the war, fell on the realm, the
king rides against the storm and his will,
Claws of evil have spread in the kingdom
condemned his love in darkness and terror
Thoughts before matter of fact one day after
Evil has seed meanness, life became horror
Envy the beauty and innocent wonder
Demons inside, mastered darkness has come
In
front of the church, there is prison so hard, and
small window only, where light enters dark. Till
end of her life only pain, contempt, cruelty,
imprisoned in night, her wounds, suffers agony
I feel cold dark
They spit in my heart
Her blood and beauty entered cursed country,
burning remonstrance brought freedom to us
The tree of eternity, converts things (to) beauty-
ful dream am I feeling after water so healing,
The bird singing a story of cruelty and envy,
her life began shortly after her loved ones opened the (prison) door

Long time ago, as the life has flowed
I raised from dream, that became so real
The day has come, and I saw your face
Deep in my heart, there was no empty space
The time has crawled, in the ruins of thoughts
As we walked in snow, our hands were bound
The Spirits of the blessing trees,
Remaining stars within the centuries
I stray in fear, wiped away the tears
With the rising sun, in the morning breeze
We stand alone, many years have gone
Till the moment of our day has come
From entrails and waves,
from rimrocks, and uplands,
breaks over the wrath of
ancient gods, sad their fays
Magic their realm,
opens the gates,
armies of monsters march
(to) destroy, to defense
Come into the lands of the light
It comes the night without the stars
and trees whisper together
Come and see what hands of man have done
And hear the sing(ing) of birds has gone
As dark spirits we will rapture

Cold Winter Leave

The night has gone to release the morning stars,
Wake me up from the dream, stray in dark
Silent steps across the frozen lake,
face under the ice looking to the sky,
your hand touching the white ground of glass,
I kneel, we touch, I pray the wall (between us) disappears
The night has gone to release the morning stars,
I'm fading, weeping,
Wake me up from the dream, stray in dark,
My soul is bleeding,
I've seen your face, how deep are your eyes
Your heart is freezing
My tears they've dropped in the snow, warm and salt,
cold winter leave
Snow falls down, your form's slowly gone,
feeling your heart so close, and its warm so far
"Take me home", as if you would speak these words
feel me close, cold stream takes you down
Hold me,
water bear me
before I drown
See me,
eden awaits me,
before I close my eyes

Flûtes et chants en chœur et en français… and melodic black metal with medieval “nuances”. Need I say more ? Love these guys. It’s an interesting mix of folk and BM but regardless it’s original and I will come back for more 🤘🏼

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre !
