In a void no life no light blinded ....clarity in hindsight
Pulled in by this abyss.
Feeling the darkness.
(A) spirit longing, so far from home
Contradiction howl as I spin amongst particles of everything
Split myself transformed
Fearing an end
Darkness surrounds me! (Vostry)
Seeing all through the vision of my mind (Hall)
Anger embodies Me! (Vostry)
Awaking a rage of passion burning for life (Hall)
Death devours me ! (Vostry)
Numb to emotion, escaping light (Hall)
Swallowed by Oblivion! (Vostry)
Turned inside out my world collides with reality (Hall)
Can you feel the sinking into this Black Expanse ?
Worming its way inside warping my mind to advance
Blinding stars absorbing my soul
I can now let go of this meager existence/resistance
Emptiness of this shell
An imagined physical pain
Frozen universal spell
Cosmic rays filling all thoughts
A poisonous sickening plot
Hidden in a cold womb
Awaiting my bloom/doom
Can you feel the sinking into this Black Expanse ?l
Worming its way inside warping my mind to advance
Blinding stars absorbing my soul
I can now let go of this meager resistance
Breathless I renounce my whole,
Dark nebulas clouding this existence/resistance
Falling into a contorted form
Living misshapen swarm
Fluttering
Aching
Trembling
Attempting a breath I choke
Scarce emotions twitching me
Emerging now
Having opened the gate
Pandorum is my fate.

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes

Mind-drifting to ethereal, dark places. Obscurity! My existence, just a brief moment in space and time. My body, a cage. Memories vanished. Where will I go from here? Forever is such a long time.
Brilliant album! Took me to an unforgiving but contemplative state. Âqen's musicianship is irreproachable. Umbra Cornuta

I thought this one might be silly, given the subject matter. It is not and it is awesome! Great debut album by a band that I will definitely follow from here Onanjath
