Mighty the hammer falls
The hand of iron heeds his masters call
The pheonix plucks his trophy of regret
Dead in his hands the eyes stare vacantly t’word things to come
Clarity
Treachery
Divided by fate, sworn to the blade
The Abyss convulses to the rhythm of death
A seal, upon the day
Marks, the Imperiums' dying breath
Heresy!
Tradgedy!
Upon the horizon,
Brothers become undone
A fools gamble
Once great lords become
Lost in fear
behold the raven’s
Warriors broken
Weap tears of anguish, upon istvan ash
Watch the traitors fane
Like moths to a flame
Their shackles illusive but Souls and skin maimed
How can this be?
Those once bound by honour to thee
Spit upon the omnisicnent
Now Decived
Never free
Mark of eight

This album is superb, the mix of doom and black is great. BUT THE FIRST TRACK! literally one of the best songs I've ever heard. It captures the atmosphere of warhammer 40k like none other. Simply amazing Dimdagreek

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

i checked out bands coming to my town, and xoth were on the list. at first i thought they were cheesy since i only liked metal to be deep, dark, and atmospheric .
i did enjoy the technical complexity, so i gave them another chance. i equated shredding with jockishness (ugh), but i now see it as a creative choice. i just had to approach it on my own terms, and xoth was the perfect gateway for this. they really opened up a new world for me. quasiotter
