Old ones, razored ones
Devourers, vicious, cold and ravenous
lyrics
Old ones, razored ones
Devourers, vicious, cold and ravenous
Steel jawed, blood athirst, harbingers of chaos
Gloomed souls casting spells from forbidden scrolls
Set in trance and through the sleeping minds of men
Hounds trace the dreams and tear bone from flesh
Besieged the neophyte and extinguish one by one
Old ones, razored ones
Sadist, hunt the eons, through curve space and unabated
ill, natured, enshrouded evil and phantasmal
Hounds that strike out of sight
Razor wolves that strike out of night
Torches set a fire yet failed to dispel
They draw breath from the begotten
Nothing can long stand the hounds of Tindalos
Claw and gnaw at souls not at rest
Putresense, progenies of foulness
Old ones, razored ones
The novice, diviner of pathless sorcery, they hunt
They prowl, the cosmic shores, hidden, in shadows
They hunt, they hunt, they hunt, they hunt

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
I can't formally retract the erroneous 2.0 I gave this back in 2018, but I can say that, five years on, I've come around to this record in a big way. Quality death metal with great atmosphere without being "atmospheric" (read: boring) metal. Diabolus in Muzaka
