I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
How can I still fall
When I’m already down
Humans sink deeper
Not stopped by the ground
I’ve lost my light
No trust in nature
Gentle giants fly
Above me
Wondrous ancients
Like devil’s angels
Surround me
I’ve given in to
The pull from the deep
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
With manta rays
I’ve lost my light
I feel the peace
With manta rays
How can I still fall
When I’m already down
Humans sink deeper
Not stopped by the ground
I’ve lost my light
No trust in nature
Gentle giants fly
Above me
Wondrous ancients
Like devil’s angels
Surround me
I’ve given in to
The pull from the deep
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.
