What's so long forsaken
Being told that the world will die
Receive the blessings
Cast away dark spirits
From you're protected from all of us
Come forward and drink up the cup of fortune
Feel the earth stable your feet
Hear the wind sing to your ears
Fly like a feather
While fire burns beneath
We have to save what's left
Before all worlds will collide
Receive the blessings
Cast away dark spirits
From you're protected from all of us
Find balance in your breathing
Focus on your sight
On the earth and in the sky
Feel the fire rising up and warming the earth
While the water will bring it down
Dreams of darkness consumed by fear
Warm the water and wash the mind clear
Feel nature by your side
Her secrets will reveal in day light
Before the world darkens and brings out the night
Come follow me to the realm of life
Reveal my elements
Life brings the consciousness of time
In the simmering moonlight

Hello dear
Please come over here
Are you lost?
Did death call from above?
Do you feel cold inside?
The last drop of tears you cried
Crawling through the ground
With her last words, she is bound
Like a dry bouquet
She feels like throwing away
With blood you will sacrifice
From earth you will rise
Rise from the mountains dust
Fertilize the soil in you that we trust
When your roots grow deeper
That makes them weaker
Plant out your seeds
A forest of strength is what you have achieved
Now
Close your eyes
Feel closure you'll be fine
So stable, so strong, so divine
Like sand turned into stone
Like skin, that protects the bones
Like the kings who are bound to their thrones
From death to the life
From child into a wife
From the peace to your new strive
With blood you will sacrifice
From the earth you will rise
Rise from the mountains dust
Fertilize the soil in you that we trust
When your roots grow deeper
That makes them weaker
Plant out your seeds
A forest of strength is what you have achieved
Now
Close your eyes
Feel closure you'll be fine
So stable, so strong, so divine
Like sand turned into stone
Like skin, that protects the bones
Like the kings who are bound to their thrones
From death to the life
From child into a wife
From the peace your new strive
From death to the life
From child into a wife
From the peace your new strive
Walk with me
To the end of days and
Follow my lead and breathe in
The soil you walk up on
The soil you treat as dirt
Will give you fruit flowers and leaves
When the sea reaches out for me
You will see those two combined
More stronger than life itself
So I invoke our spirit of earth sand and stone
The power of patience endurance and changes
Hold your head up high to the north side
And walk away with honesty away from the dead
Now time has come to rise up
Raise your voice, clear your mind
Break the bonds
The time has come to rise up
Raise your voice, clear your mind
Break the bonds
Rise from the mountains dust
Fertilize the soil in you that we trust
When your roots grow deeper
That makes them weaker
Sow out your seeds
A forest of strength is what you have achieved
Being paralyzed
For the way of your crimes
And still, blocked the signs
Leave this mortal life behind
Walk in line
Clean yourself you'll feel fine
And find your life
The misconception you became
Walk in line
Clean yourself you'll feel fine
And find your life
The misconception you became

From the Ashes

I speak to all of you
Come forward
And embrace the fire
Kneel before your ancestors
And beg for anew
From wind fire earth and water
All resting in the spirits soul
Let the flames reach higher
And burn the burden in your soul
Resurrected from the ashes
Heal your body and take control
Create a new horizon
Take back the life that they stole
See through sinners eyes
Crying but smiling
Madness taking over
Exhausted from
The living
Wishing eternal life
From wind fire earth and water
All resting in the spirits soul
Let the flames reach higher
And burn the burden in your soul
Resurrected from the ashes
Heal your body and take control
Create a new horizon
And take back the life that they stole
From the ashes

When the roses bloom beautifully
But the thorns do still sting me
When clouds provide a shade
But it still rains on my face
Down to reality
Finding it hard to see
That life does not come easy
And how you want it to be
Find a path that's already walked on
Find a cure that's already been found
Find a heart that's already loved
Swim with me
To the open ocean sea
Find and believe
It's your time to grieve
Lost in your hope
When you feel high but you're below
From the dark into to the light
Its your candle you ignite

Reflections

You are afraid
To kneel before the lake
To see the face
What turned out to be a disgrace
The water may be pure
But your heart not for sure
When the moon shines bright in the night in the sky
The water rises
Feel it flowing through your heart
Ever unknowing curse let it fall apart
And rise
For all that seen is a life with imperfection
Took the right path but walked in the wrong direction
Dear water of the sea cleaner of the body and soul
Take him back where he belongs
To see his own reflection
The sun will rise
She lets the water dry
Of your mind
And flowing away with the tide
My little one
Don't be scared all alone
Let it heal you and guide you
To where you belong
And rise
And feel alive
For all that's seen is a life with imperfection
Took the right path but walked in the wrong direction
Dear water of the sea cleaner of the body and soul
Take him back where he belongs
To see his own reflection
Now sit down
And let the failures drown
And let life take you around
Let life take you around

The raven claws came upon me and grabbed me away
Far from love to the darkest part of me
When the screech belongs to me
That the wounds that were closed
Were suddenly exposed
Forcing thoughts breaking out of the mind
To feel
To heal
But those that stare
That stare in the night
Hunt me through my most beautiful dreams
Solitudo
Solitudo

Solitudo
Solitudo

Solitudo
Suffocatus est in cogitatione
Suffocati sunt in se
Reaching for the stars that I want the most
For the light that would shine so bright
We're all tiny stars that shine as one
Your own light your own shine
Create your timeline
Choked on words that were unspoken
Trying to fix what's unbroken
Let your tears create a sea and step in
On a boat and float away
Solitudo
Solitudo
Solitudo
Solitudo
Solitudo

Suffocatus est in cogitatione
Suffocati sunt in se
Laying down to breath
Trying to find the link
Emptiness is over the place
Borderline
Is where you find
People that have misbehaved
So sick
So well
So cold
So hot
So dark
So light
So bright
So night

Feel the wind blow
Over the hills and far
The whispers breath
Is close ahead
With all the words that were unsaid
Please, still hold on
With all the strength you've got
Who walks the walk?
Who talks that talk?
Reveal the storm inside
Breathing the core unseal closed doors
Find your persistence
Let the hurricane rage through
The wind sets sail for your way
Success or failure
Turn the ship around and say
Bow down let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price
Bow down let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price
If it doesn't challenge you
It can never change you
It's time for anew
If it doesn't challenge you
It can never change you
It's time for anew
Breathing the core unseal closed doors
Find your persistence
Let the hurricane rage through
The wind sets sail for your way
Success or failure
Turn the ship around and say
Bow down let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price
Bow down let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price
If it doesn't challenge you
It can never change you

Please, still hold on
With all the strength you've got
Who walks the walk?
Who talks that talk?
Reveal the storm inside
Hear my song, spirit of wind
Let it calm my mind
Please tell me your world is kind
To rest my soul and unwind
So hear the horns of war flowing
They came from afar
Let their body be taking back by nature
And let us all sing in a choir
Feel the air through your lungs
Let the words spread in the forbidden tongues
Silently watching when they fall
They're all locked in their own unbreakable wall
Feel the air through your lungs
Let the words spread in the forbidden tongues
Silently watching when they fall
They're all locked in their own unbreakable wall
Reaching the core unseal closed doors
Find your persistence
Let the hurricane rage through
The wind sets sail for your way
Success or failure
Turn the ship around and say
Bow down, let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price
Bow down, let the arrow fly
Through a broken mind
Bow down
Quitters are taking the price

Contemplating in the dark
Meditation with the fire within
Divine ritual
Let us begin
Oh great spirit of flames
Take away the illusions and games
Bring forth the meaning of life
A way of living that is worth the strive
Silent but violent
It will purge the wrath
Reveal the truth within
Purify the world of sin
A tyrant full of passion
Annihilator of suppression
Coming forth from the ashes
Consuming all that it catches
Molten matter forms new life
Stronger than it was before
To create power in its core
Contemplating on in the dark
Meditation with the fire within
Divine ritual
Let us persist in
Oh great spirit of flames
Take away the illusions and games
Bring forth the meaning of life
A way of living that is worth the strive
Silent but violent
It will purge the wrath
Reveal the truth within
Purify the world of sin
A tyrant full of passion
Annihilator of suppression
Coming forth from the ashes
Consuming all that it catches
Molten matter forms new life
Stronger than it was before
To create power in its core
Oh great spirits of fire hear me calling
Come forth and heal yourself with us
Fortify our lives with your might
Oh infinite beacon of the light
Be with us
Torchbearer

I call upon you to conceal and tame
The beast that is fire
And clear our energy of anything that may harm
Destroy the walls that hide our minds
As I speak let it be
So
Torchbearer
Torchbearer
Torchbearer
Fire consuming the world
Dark beings flee in terror
As spirits of the flame
Illuminates them all
Devoured by a hundred thousand burning suns
Fire consuming the world
Dark beings flee in terror

Sea Of Consciousness Netherlands
Elements are necessary for the foundation of life as we know it in our universe. Through the personification of these
elements, show and the musical story we provide, we give ourselves and hopefully others, tools to achieve this growth and personal development. This is what Sea of Consciousness stands for.
The elements must be balanced before a sea of consciousness can emerge.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.

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

Masterful use of acoustic passages and synth stuff. This is definitely my favorite black metal-dungeon synth kinda album I've found recently. Each track flows into the next so well, I cannot recommend it enough.

A bewitching imagining of black metal lore set in the old American west. You can positively inhale the aura of despair and thick smoke that this record evokes. Grim cinematic atmosphere transmogrified into music.
