Orbulax Mabuo
Gonemage
Culmination swirl Gathering visions, thawing anima Break down organic matter Axe burst through snow Orbulax light up Spectacle grips Offer new vessels Home away from your world See through the distance Bring you to a fortress Level up, level down Build Recombinator code sunset Sense of familiarity A star built on a million deaths For you to one day meld with Spectacle grips Offer new vessels Home away from your world Birth Homesickness defeated Vomit the past soup of soul

Porcelain Glare
Gonemage
Send the signal down the spire Down the mountain To a world below Retrieve the piercer, lost Unfinished works Of indoctrination Malevolence enshrined This fucked Body of ice Body of lies Enlighten trapped human souls With pleasures unheard of You toy, you fool You must return to Aetherhold Your methods, crude I care not for games of mischief You will return and tend To these blocks of ice Clacked my feet once I'm more than you remember No longer just a toy I'm here to dismember Porcelain glare My new sanctum, a kingdom Porcelain glare Clacked my feet twice I have toes, bruised and bloodied My own dungeon of ice thickens Your prisoners only dream Mine get to play and scream Porcelain glare My new sanctum, a kingdom Porcelain glare Wheels of torture Decks of ethereal horror Flesh stretched wonders I possess No matter, flesh or figure A torment of hailstone Unto you and your petty sanctum Return dead or alive I'll use your parts as food for worms Not in this present state of mind I'll craft a new doll for you Spire send Titan wormhole More hailstones Insufferable defiance Your essence is mine Once an amusement, the titan wormhole absorbs Now breathe frozen winds Tails up the mountain shrine Any counter will be reduced to an icicle Tear me limb from limb I hear the chest open Porcelain glare My old sanctum, no kingdom Porcelain glare Entwine No matter, flesh or figure A torment of hailstone Inside me, I am your instrument Instruct me

Icewall Worms Grown From Leftover Aura
Gonemage
Crawl Dream leak Unlikely creation Worms seeping A manifestation Cumdensation Infestation Oh master of cold What does the future hold Slither regeneration New sensation of beings consuming Other dreams out in these worlds Other dreams out in these worlds Dream leak Unlikely creation Worms feeding A manifestation Cumdensation Infestation Dreams feed Crawl Slither Creep Old soul Replace me I want a new body Icewall worms fully emerge Aura warp mutation white hot Metl through the frozen block Master unaware, quietly wriggling out of the lair Out of the lair Down to the mountain Into the cave What a beautiful rock Which of these dials to turn A sacrifice must be made What if we spit out a dream we just ate Surrogate essence and aura An offer accepted by the device World changing by cum

Coldest Keep in Bitter Heavens
Gonemage
Worldly creations A bitter, cold thorn prods the universe Luring spells far reaching Telepathic visions beam All beings welcome Dimensional crystallization Lubricate the frontal orb Fabricate message and false gift elates For each soul who receives From the coldest keep Through the cosmic veins of ice beams Astral corridor channel Channeling all those who can see, who can feel, who may breed, pleasure seekers and treasure hunters A disgraced temporal trespasser Orchestral caress, surely damning all Cold sighting at heart, lurid ice veil Send love for this morbid painting Once, this thorn revered among thrones Wandering too far into control and torture Banished the sorcerer to solitude Frigid and dark Desire for conjuring eternal torture and insatiable sensation grew A festering bitterness snowballing into a castle Floating above a strange mountain Sacred home to a secret well protected The Star Changer Artifact previously unknown to him and his former council He uses visions of this hidden rock From the coldest keep The coldest keep Bitter heavens filling up like cubes in an ice tray (Indecipherable screams from frozen prisoners)

Overload of Melded Solitude
Gonemage
Whelming waves and meteors reroute Interference with the thorn’s lures Orb at the castle’s entrance flickers a glitch Like an itch unending, unnerving, spell swerve Worms successful in turning the terraformer And begin curious travel with a mossy lantern Unfamiliar territories beyond the cold Beyond this solitude it scolds, vitriolic murmur Beyond this solitude Orbulax overloading Star-crossed signals swaying Is there anyone coming To crush the ice Orbulax overloading Break the spell From the entrance, create chaos Meld all sorcery, entwine From the entrance, visible prisoners Enchant-break careen through veiled ice A master thwarted by his own power Constituent effluence, not even prescient Damages tallied to much of his experiments The clown doll smirks, shimmery luster violet, violet What violence awaits Overflow Worms blast into dimensional scatter Where will I take you, says the Mossbane lantern Unfamiliar territories to satiate hunger, unfold Orbulax, all switches engage Orbulax overloading Star-crossed signals swaying Is there anyone coming To crush the ice Orbulax overloading Break the spell Ships and travelers looming Suspiciously across cold sky A madness discovered by the universe Beaming psychotic schemes But no small feat to rip the thorn out, the frozen out of their carefully crafted dreams Orb swells like a curse Freeze Freeze all

'Coldest Keep in Bitter Heavens' revolves around Aetherhold, a levitating castle isolated in a distant cold plane. At the helm of this castle is a disgraced wizard, who casts spells of telepathic visions across dimensions to lure a variety of beings for experiments.

Aetherhold floats high above a mysterious, snowy mountain, which holds powerful artifacts and devices, attracting adventurers and thrillseekers from other planes. These artifacts are connected to my death metal project Sallow Moth and its album 'Mossbane Lantern' as both of these albums take place in the same world: https://ampwall.com/a/sallowmoth/album/mossbane-lantern

Notable influences on this album: Ulver, Arcturus, Emperor, Dødheimsgard, Covenant, Sigh, Abigor, Odium, Nobuo Uematsu, Yellow Magic Orchestra.

Synopsis for each track:

1. Orbulax Mabuo: A quasi-mechanical orb guards the entrance to the ice castle, serving as a beacon for the wizard’s messages. It is the [mystical and mechanical] manifestation of a formerly trapped mage.

2. Porcelain Glare: A mischievous clown doll (from the album Spell Piercings) who terrorized and transformed a suburban neighborhood into an ice dungeon, is being summoned back to its owner, the wizard of Aetherhold.

3. Icewall Worms Grown From Leftover Aura: Worms begin to manifest from the aura of dreams, an unintended side effect of those trapped in the ice walls. They exhibit regenerative abilities and the need to consume.

4.Parallel Visions of Static Languish (by Stealth Archer) (instrumental, representing the dream state of the trapped)

5. Coldest Keep in Bitter Heavens: The unnamed wizard of Aetherhold shaping his castle into a cold laboratory of experiments.

6. Overload of Melded Solitude: Orbulax becomes overloaded due to a crosswire of incoming and outgoing signals, thus causing a series of cosmic anomalies and catastrophic events.

7. Giga Axe Beam: Data log and inner monologue of interdimensional android investigating a strange signal and mysterious artifacts in an ice cave, eventually succumbing to a giga axe beam produced by one of these artifacts.
