Sen swaise spartin, sen swaise warrin
Sendais mans wissans, spartinais wissans
Visupirmais tas ir Pērkons, debesu grāvējs
Pēc tam Patrimps, viņš zemei svētību dod
Tas trešais vecais Pīkols, pazemes valdnieks
Pie viņa mirušie sev ceļu rod
Anzanas spartin, anzanas warrin
Sendais mans wissans, spartinais wissans
Ik dienas tur mūžīgo uguni kur vaideloši
Un vaidelotes nāk saulgriežos, vainagus vīt
Tas kurš spēj runāt ar dieviem un zin viņu gribu
Pats Krīvu Krīvs tai Rāmavas svētbirzī mīt
No senseniem laikiem simtgadu ozols
savas saknes tur pleš
Trīs dievu tēli, mēmi un cēli, pie tā ozola sēž
Vienam liesmojošs kronis
Otrs jauneklis stalts
Trešs, ar garu bārdu
Galvā līķauts tam balts
Visupirmais tas ir Pērkons, debesu grāvējs
Pēc tam Patrimps, viņš zemei svētību dod
Tas trešais vecais Pīkols, pazemes valdnieks
Pie viņa mirušie sev ceļu rod…
A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
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
Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime.
Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques. Suivez la procession de Батюшка ici : https://sphieratz.bandcamp.com/album/- Jordan Vauvert
Bridging Nordic black metal with traditional Celtic folk, the Idaho crushers forge heavy music with a heroic medieval spirit. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 11, 2023
Listening to this on shrooms was haunting, which made it into a serious trip! Which was a mistake I was not prepared for. I do have something to say about it though on why I think it such. I have personally experienced several tipi ceremonies. One would stay up through the night, consuming peyote, doing in some sense a molting process and does so by connecting you to the spirit world.
This album does this, but different - I say it transcends that experience, and does it well... On shrooms.
