Banished Olden Wounds
Sylfvr
Beneath the clouds Comes a new dawn The neverending Ravage of time Banished olden wounds And the whole kingdom Mourned Peoples' madness The Rulers greed The Wrath of the clouds The Eternal Rain Hasten yourself, loathsome king Your days are numbered He is no more! Returned to his ancestors Head bowed in shame The kingdom shall Know the stars once more

Myriads of Fires
Sylfvr
A pale night forever lone A burning city, stones, and bones Rain abounds, forevermore Myriads of fires, across the lands Burning Pyres of Lore A forsaken relic of yore There is a story, long forgotten Of a sea divinity Cursing the realm

Do Not Falter...
Sylfvr
Do not falter, little knight There is a light at the end of the tunnel Protect your brother, Protect your mother, Protect your father, or maybe don't and just do as you please what do you owe them really? Nothing! Forsake your realm!

Memoria
Sylfvr
What is this realm, really, if not a place of memories, Good and bad, old and new People's minds meshing together The rain forever here The clouds looming over our heads We have entered a palace full of the figments of our good people's imaginations We should do better...
7:24
Woe Followed
Sylfvr
In the kingdom of eternal rain, There was a lonesome knight, Searching for their home ! Woe followed Leaving a trail of blood Why was the poor wretch Left alone in the damp What was left Of the good kingdom Ruins and despair They say The dead! The dead! In the kingdom of eternal rain, There was a lonesome knight, Searching for their home! What was left Of the good kingdom Ruins and despair They say

Passage
Sylfvr
Silence and doom In the realm of Gaolath Fire and ashes In the realm of Gaolath The passage is clear And the forest is silent A Towering fortress As still as the night
5:00
Eternal Darkness
Sylfvr
There is only sadness in this kingdom Cold faces, hearts filled with void A distinct lack of future The sun has forgotten us... As I look upon the stars Of our cloud-covered kingdom I wonder if the sun will ever appear I wish to forget about the rain And let my fingers run through The heat again
7:24

Everything falters, as the neverending clouds seem never to disappear, and the people long for the sight of the stars...

This one is a little different. To me, it's a little piece of everything that ever inspired me musically. There's a lot in there, some of it messy, some of it might even sound odd, but it comes straight from the heart, with utmost honesty. There is black metal, a bit of shoegaze, and a lot of dungeon synth. It's also a work to surpass myself, try new things, to get creative.

The lyrics tell a story that was inspired by my previous album "Realm Of Eternal Rain", and this is a loose continuation of that universe...
I hope you will like the journey, and fear not, for the stars are never too far...

All tracks composed and recorded between January and April 2024, except Memoria in 2021
