· a circle trodden overlong · the child grows weary of wanderlust · of earth-blacked feet that bleed · through split heels ·
· the hunter longs for hearth-fire · to set aside his spear · a stone's throw from flesh ·
· hold fast · they will return with viler claws · and teeth that drip with lust for hairless skin · and bone that reeks of grain · in the guise of man ·
· seeds sown to be swollen · so savage and pure · to birth the narrative ·
· toward the sun we turn · to graze her blight · the coming of our age· a lie · retched and filtered through · cowards bent in desperate mirth ·
· run · cleave to the darkest corners · the blackest rooms · the hardest stones ·
· pull your roots · from the nourishing soil · you'll need them no more ·

Seeds Sown In Famine

· seeds sown to be swollen · we reap bereavement in deep wells · and slough from the lightness of poverty · from painted halls of gnarled stone ·
· the sickly glow of malformed embers · licks the lowest of branches · resplendent with their fickle seed · their only earthly prize ·
· vain progeny of a god that hungers · leached with wings · of a naïve conception · stone shells erupt · from the loosening dirt ·

· lo · and the priest draws near · false flesh acquired by grace of celebrity · fraught with souls so vain within · a reliquary of hurt befouled with sin ·
· foul rain · wretched blood beneath a pale fane · I watched the frailest grow bold · the rise of the thaumaturge ·
· pining after a frail empyrean · glimpsed through wreathes of aging flame · we are the vagrant and ever-mourning · birthed from unseen wombs ·
· foul rain · wretched blood beneath a pale fane · I watched the frailest grow bold · the rise of the thaumaturge ·

· his skin is clad · upon the bodiless · a pallid wreath of meat · awash with the reek of rot and incense ·
· our father returns · a ghost no longer · confined to the idle mind · our saviour returns · asserted ever-more · by our prognathic legacy ·
· we are bathed in waters cold · ascendant to none · ill-befitting of gods ·
· in the foulest wile · of the failing mind · the heavens became the vault · and a thousand eyes conspired ·
· in pitiful deference · their designs took vile form · in the eye of the dragging worm ·
· his skin is clad and stretched upon the corporeal · pallid wreath of meat · awash with the reek of rot and incense ·
· our father returns · a ghost no longer ·

· kneel between the helpless · and the affluent · thank me before the raping of the world · beneath the graying clouds above · as they vomit forth their fulgent rain ·
· our blood · a feast for rats · hark the reptilian eye · child scion of the snake-heart · beat no longer ·
· eat forever · never cease to feed · breed forever · never cease to feed · need forever · never cease to feed ·
· the peak of the tower · falls at the master's whim · speak only in thirst · you must heed the hunger's call · the gnashing of teeth unfed ·

With Hunger Undying

· as we dance with lust · a stranger aeon yet estranged by time · in stasis of our own devision ·
· vanity in the palm of our hand · has led our souls · shown us the way · to a greatness · defied by nature ·
· climb the hole · when you fall · you must start again ·
· there is no comfort · for any man · I have no conflict · in this voracious heart · I am a fallen god · written to the form of man ·
· this is not the beginning · the rebirth ·
· this is the end · by our own design · always inside of you · there is a man · bereft of love for your world · born with hunger undying ·
· all with hunger undying ·

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.

Stare Into Death And Be Still

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter.
