A gold gradient morning before the gods celebrate
A pagan opera within the clouds, the sky erupting
Purple lights beam down from Elysium, our ancestors cheer
For another four cycles of triumphant Roman year
Thunderbolts over Latium
A divine choir eclipse with the rising sun
The war has been won, new territories subjugated
That which was but a dream has manifested into destiny
A parade in the streets, ribbons dance in the Aeolian wind
A capital of marble beautiful and rain slicked, thunder scoring the scene
Lightning strikes
Rainfall hammers down
Citizens shout for joy
On this holy lupine ground
And so there is a celebration on this day
But another conquest is never too far away
War is peace, never halt the lycanthrophric march
Expand or expire, keep pursuing thine imperial task

Some of the best raw black metal I’ve heard in a while. So many infectious riffs it’s absurd. Easily my favorite release from lamp of Murmuur. HyperboreanFrost
