by Cyaxares and Amelnakru

YomaBarr When half of the metalverse gets all hyped about Mulla I'm really happy to discover this little gem from Iraq. Particularly Amelnakru songs speak to me, would love to hear more. Cyaxares folky death ain't bad either.

Come hither, O! Serpent queen of bane To consummate our evil ways Come hither, my concubine of shame To mutilate the span of days Enlil god of stroms to you i call Across the ether it’s time i fall Enki god of tides to you ‘s the soul Along the ether it’s time we fall Come hither, O! Lustrous lass of hate Illuminate this dark of mine Come hither, my restless jaded sane To lacerate the veil of time O! Legions of div Accompany her through the sands Until into myth she returns I’ll be waiting in the temple of Baal O! Lacerate ones Accompany her through the stars Until unto me she returns I will join you in the temple of Baal

I, the martyr god The dark, The greatest sun of knowledge I, the angel horned The light to whom all pay their homage I am forever falling My name is ever calling Ever descending into ether I am forever roaming Among the ever dying Ever descending into ether Before mouses i’m ‘ vagabond Before christ i’m crucified Before Qwraeesh i’m buried alive Before Hussain i’m beheaded I, the serpent king The cold, the ever lasting aeon I, the seraphim The warm, the ever ruling icon
4.	Amelnakru - Mardukh, Light of Men 05:50	lyrics	buy track
Mardukh, who throwest down the strong by his glance, Lord of gods, light of men, who dost apportion destinies, O Lord, Babylon is thy seat, Borsippa thy crown The wide heavens are thy body.... Within thine arms thou takest the strong.... As thy glance thou grantest them grace, Makest them see light to proclaim thy power Turn thy face towards Esagila, thy temple

The Funeral Pyre
by KVAEN

supported by 6 fans who also own “The Secret of Esaglia”

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
