Track The Ascension Of Beauty
Album: 2014 EP

Lyrics:
Listen...
The beauty calls.
The forest enthralls.
Idun weeps.
The silence unfolds.

Let the ever-soothing,
Vastness of nature,
Breathe majestic life,
Into my weary soul.
So I may create,
From silence gone unspoken,
Music of the earth,
And eternal songs.

Joyful desolation,
A feeling so benign.
Beautiful Ascension, 
A sight that is divine.
The elder ones have gathered,
Summoning the light.
To witness the rebirth,
Of the noble kind.

Tsovinar o'goddess,
Sing your songs of rain.
Make the land of Armen,
Fruitful yet again.
The chosen ones have gathered,
The living and the slain.
To Nar of the Oceans,
Royal we remain.

02-The Ascension Of Beauty

Track: The Procession 
Album: Avarayr EP

Lyrics:

The skies are ashen and sober,
The leaves are crisped and sere,
Our gods lie in deepest slumber,
In this forsake year.

The fields grow gray and deader,
The crops begin to fail.
And thus we hear the order,
A sacrifice must be made.

In the great noble vastlands,
Our daughters sing, dance and cheer.
Blessed by the god of the highlands,
And seen as sacred and dear.

The druids now slowly wander,
To seek the fruit of the earth,
The crimson source of wonder,
Might, and of rebirth.

The procession commences,
The flames are now burning high.
And smiles now adorn our faces,
The sons and daughters of pride.

Sing the hymn of the mountains,
Sing of east, north and west.
Come forth o'Ancient goddess, 
Your sacrifice has been made.

A chill rises

and contaminates the air
suddenly...
life has new meaning.

Visht - My Dread Is Eternal (Demo)

Track from the first EP by Armenian ambient black metal band Visht.

Under Twilights of Insignificance

Visht-Celestial Lights Over Solar Seas

The Vengeful Winds of Artsakh is the first offering from Armenian black metal band Azhdahak. Taking influence from old school Norwegian black metal such as Gorgoroth and new influences such as Highland and the death metal scene, Azhdahak is a cacophonous duo full of aggression and empty of compromise. Keeping things raw and uncomfortable, the band hopes to become a breath of fresh, yet decaying air among the plastic-sounding extreme music of today. Proceed with caution. Pure Armenian Darkness awaits...

The Vengeful Winds of Artsakh (Single)

Azhdahak-The Vengeful Winds of Artsakh (Single)

It is evident from the title. Ceremonious Dances in Ughtasar is a dance song. Plain and simple. It embodies of the spirit of a time when man and Nature were at one. It was written in 2014 by the original live line-up of Avarayr and is finally ready to infect the world with its pure energy.

Music: Narek Avedyan/Emin Khechoomian
Lyrics: Narek Avedyan

In the plains of Ughtasar,
Hands are held towards the sky.
As far as the eye can see,
A crowd stands in unity.
All the people have arrived,
From the beggar to the king.
Dancing till the morning light,
Till the sun embraces the sea.

In the plains of Ughtasar, 
Flames are burning endlessly.
Drunk on the wine of the gods,
They dance away in unity.
Ceremonious, yet wild,
They dance away in harmony.
Dancing till the morning light,
Till the sun embraces the sea.

Feel the sun, the moon, on the mountains.
Feel the call of the gods in the air.
