Deep within the castle – walls covered in moss
On through misty passages into the catacombs
A blasphemous coven – chanting sacred rites
Praises to the Goat under a cloak of night
Bound in torture
Brand sears the skin
Spare me your pathetic cries
Confess your sins
Alone in cold and darkness – imprisoned in this keep
For sordid pagan rituals – crimes against humanity
You are scarred and whipped and flayed all in the name of God
I am his chosen confessor – remorseless in my work
My hands are holy tools
That were not made to heal
But to extract the truth
From your anatomy
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
