As a precursor to their forthcoming second album, German black metal tyrants ASCENSION unleash the Deathless Light EP. Ever aptly titled, this two-song strike beams brilliantly with an illumination that can only come from the most fathomless, pure-obsidian depths of the spirit. ASCENSION's debut album, 2010's Consolamentum, became a classic in the underground not long after its release; it evinced a wealth of maturity in composition and execution for such a new band. Here, the quintet extend that maturity even further, unfurling orthodox black metal that brims with creativity and passion, fervor and professionalism, utter darkness and radiant glory, every note and nuance exactly where it should be and nothing wasted nor sacrificed. The title track will feature on ASCENSION's upcoming new album for W.T.C., while "Garden of Stone" is exclusive to this release. Deathless Light shines on...

Ascension - Deathless Light

At long last, German black metal tyrants ASCENSION unveil their highly anticipated second album, The Dead of the World. Previewed by the Deathless Light EP, ASCENSION's The Dead of the World is a grandiose work of bold creativity and boundless imagination, of brilliant illumination and obsidian depth, all under the banner of orthodox black metal. The band's debut album, 2010's Consolamentum, became a classic in the underground not long after its release; it evinced a wealth of maturity in composition and execution for such a new band. Here, the quintet eclipse that accomplishment with a seven-song salvo that's the epitome of Album Experience. Every part is where it needs to be; every song flows from the other; there is a whole, and it is a black HOLE. From its innermost depths, ASCENSION drive onward and outward, their control of dynamics startling for mere "black metal," their passion, fervor, and professionalism far beyond those who supposedly uphold that genre. Joining ASCENSION in their peerless endeavor here are The Magus (Necromantia, Thou Art Lord, Principality of Hell) and Mors Dalos Ra (Necros Christos), who both respectively provide guest vocals on The Dead of the World. Black metal may be dead for all intents and purposes, but not for ASCENSION, for they show you The Dead of the World.

SLIDHR - Belief Burned As Incense

"decolonize your fucking mind"

woke up in a world of lies
but the truth never dies
look deep inside my eyes
as they burn with the sacred rage
flames ablaze with ancestral war cries

decolonize
your fucking mine
free Palestine
keep that on your fucking mind

white washed minorities
pink washed genocide
fuck off with any zionist pride
if its not 'fuck israel!'
than fuck you too!!

decolonize
your fucking mine
free Palestine
keep that on your fucking mind

from the river to the sea
Palestine will be free

fuck zionism
fuck zionism
fuck zionism
fuck zionism

woke up in a world of lies
but the truth never dies
look deep inside my eyes
as they burn with the sacred rage
flames ablaze with ancestral war cries

decolonize
your fucking mine
free Palestine
keep that on your fucking mind

"great escape (black metal version)"

Stumped on lessons
Too proud to learn
Same mistakes ‘round every turn
Don’t you know?
You must burn
For freedom of choice to be earned

Scared of the pain
Afraid of the change
That comes once we are too remain

Inside these walls locked to these chains
But you have the strength to break away
It’s your mirror
Smash it
Smash it
Do away with old habits that are long ingrained
Buried deep inside your brain

A muscle that
One must train
In order to make a great escape

decolonize
your fucking mind
in order to make a great escape

decolonize your fucking mind // great escape (black metal version)
