lyrics

Awaken in sunlight's gaze, cold breath of morning brings new life
Through ages past all have fallen as I will fall.

Through the dawn I grow strong absorbing light to nourish the one
Through wind and rain I will remain true in spirit
As summer burns we darken the earth
Hiding the hunter and protecting the prey

Autumn approaches and I now know time is a heartless mistress

Weakening in the dying embers of the passing sun

Old man winter creeps ever onward this first day

My time has come, I drift to damp earth, there to rot to soil, and start the rebirth.
The blood in my veins is not my blood it is your blood

It is the blood of a thousand ages past, it is heritage, it is knowledge.
Share it only with those who know the path.

Asleep in the belly of the wolf
Adrift in an ocean of black stars
The red ochre stains my skin absorbing wisdom from within

The great horns, beast like, as twisted as yew, erupt from old wounds,
They grow as wisdom grows and tell the fate of the whole world.

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming

supported by 20 fans who also own “The Leaf”

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

Uinuos Syömein Sota
by Havukruunu

supported by 16 fans who also own “The Leaf”

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

Kelle Surut Soi
by Havukruunu

supported by 16 fans who also own “The Leaf”

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

No excuse, I should’ve already picked this up. When people can’t agree on what you’re playing but they know it’s metal, that means you’ve done it right. Metallurgical Fire
