Even from the light of day
Their cries still resonate
Echoes of blissful darkness and woe
Wistful memories
Of Immemorial blackness
Abandoned remnants of the endless night
Calling ever so loudly
I’ll serve this wail
Yearning for resurrection
Their wishes shall be fulfilled
From the void where radiance dies
Await the sovereign lords of all
A morbid tranquility of utter misanthropy
A dark salvation unobscured
Even from the break of dawn
Primeval spirits hold sway
Over bleak, esoteric forces of hate
Beyond the eyes of man
Into realms unrivaled
And spheres incomparable
From the void where radiance dies
Await the sovereign lords of all
A morbid tranquility of utter misanthropy
A dark salvation unobscured by human tongues
Even through forgotten times
And eras long departed
The ancient blackness stands watch
Waiting for the moment
When all decays into nihil
And the throne of malevolence is theirs
We will swallow all
No light will be spared
We walk beside death
Watching as all dies
We shall rise once more
From an ever dark past
And when the last star dies
Our reign will resume

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

Some of the best cosmic black metal I've heard. Mare Cognitum continues to prove themselves to be masters of crafting a vast, celstial soundscape, and the Lovecraft-esque atmosphere present throughout Aureole's half definitely made me want to check out the rest of their discography. honeycombguy
