BURZUM - hvis lyset tar oss

translation:
What Once Was
Between the bushes we stared
At those who reminded us of another age
And told that hope was away
Forever...
We heard elvensong and
Water that trickled
What once was is now
Away
All the blood...
All the longing and pain that
Ruled Are away...
Forever...
We are not dead...
We have never lived
If The Light Takes Us
A glade in the wood
Where the sun shines
Between the trees we are imprisoned
In this God's glade
It burns it scorches
When the light licks our flesh Goes toward the sky a smoke
A cloud of our form Prisoners of the burials
Tormented by God's goodness
No flame no hate
They were right we have come to Hell
In The Castle Of The Dream
Between misty vales
Between gloomy mountains
Under gray clouds
In the black night
On a proud horse
In black clothes
Strong weapons at hand
The infinity with dead trees
An eternity of cold
Over stone and wood
In the shadows...
Out from the mist
Out from darkness
Out from the big shadows of the mountain
The castle of the dream...
So ends the ride
That lasted a lifetime
For the master goes (in the castle of the dream)
Emptiness Instrumental
If you get it, you get it. and it doesn't get any more "it" than this. Inn I Slottet Fra Droemmen alone is worth the price if you want to pick up a hard copy. i couldn't begin to review this. suffice it to say it's the polar opposite of dream theater and they should choke to death on it. black metal owes it all to this. I'm not going to burn a church and kill off my rivals, but i just might buy it on vinyl if i see it for sale. i diddn't realize what this was at first, i just sort of glazed over it. but eventually i read the lyrics, and caught some nuances in the songs, and really listened to the killer groove in Inn I Slottet Fra Droemmen, and slowely i gained more and more appreciation for this. now it's at the pinnicle of my black metal collection. well worth a dl if you don't already have it, or dispise varg vickerness or "classic" black metal for some reason.
