Still Reborn 09:09
So now I see it's clear to Me Like a mongrel discarded Destined to freeze A winter unknown like no other A cold never felt A new dominion upon Me Commanding itself! The fall has surpassed us My winter is here (Can you hear?) The shaking and trembling without any fear Alone yet undaunted the time is at hand Regret never noticed it is they who will stand A trial of errors but who is to blame The liar the silent the violence of shame Reap the bounty of loss! I will feed on His blood in His name Drink in His name! Who bringeth torture who brings Me strength The One who leads through darkness.. Unending pain The One who brings us darkness who lights the way A solitary figure from two no gain It slips away as night eats day You can call this a life as you're living a dream A winter discovered among Us A cold in a heart An old dominion has fallen now always apart Separation. Liberation. Elevation. Destined to be vigilant And with intent this regiment You will feel His wrath But still I am reborn Sacrifice this soul Heat then stir My blood Initiate His fire They rule not My desires I call Your name endlessly Who bringeth torture Who brings me strength The One who leads through darkness The One who makes Us stronger Drink in His name I am still I am still reborn! Separation. Liberation. Elevation. You're fucking done.. He’s fucking done!

Dark and unseen taking the time It has taken these years to admonish the dream A life taking test as an order behest This has brought Us And brought forth the darkness And now We infest And like the conquerors before Us We shall seek beyond the night Allow the fear allow these fixtures Permeate beyond the light What was once lost cannot be conjured We shall write the following chapters This redemption through Blood the ink of the scribe These eyes finally opened The unending dawning of time The senses threaten as the fences entwine A life taking test We envelope unrest We are Chaos untowing your line And like the victims soon to flourish We shall reach beyond the night Within the past a future litmus Permeate within the light And in despair You will adjoin Me We shall write the following volumes This redemtion through blood! At once mistrust and dully blessed Thee sanctified unholy dressed Beneath Her earth, among Her dirt We rectify to reach our worth And rise to greet the Nameless one Beseech the gaze I call to Thee Never shall I falter! Never shall it be Me! At once mistrust and dully blessed Thee sanctified My blood immersed In you for whom I concede! Redemption through blood of yours of Mine Redemption (Salvation) Redemption through His blood of yours of Mine Rising rising the soul never rests Clamps on this coffin no longer prevent Ten thousand journeys nine hundred lives And so it be written and finally We die If next may be the present The future needs to speak The past has been forgotten It’s burning at Our feet…

Eventide 06:42
I demand an answer for I am the all knowing truth Why do you think you are…?! I will ascend even faster Will you as soon follow suit? Gorge on the blood of disaster I’ll burn the world before I’m through Six million will seem trivial Can you abide by your answer Will you not drink in his youth Together We walk to death Fear no longer an issue embracing His warmth eventide Drown in the flood alabaster I’ll leave your world and be the truth Nothingness is possible! Ficticious race imposter god Cinders reduce you to nothing And nothing is all… Nothing is everything follow Me into the all… Another night has fed us stolen from the vine Orgy of inception the gift of eventide Rays of light ignite the sky in living in dying We end while you reprise… Gratified vilified Read through the pages of ancients Given to ritual feast Selfish serving I as Wolf and Beast Will you join Me?! We own the night!!! Together We run to Death!

Raven sight through the wolven eyes One purpose redeemed as the fires feed the night Nocturnal eternal Left alone are you worthy of the sacrifice Take My hand may your burning flesh envelope Me Stench of Death this caress develope entropy It may take another hundred years until you see… That on this path in Death may I be free! We have stood on the edges of existence We have drawn back The curtain stained with time In the end We have become As the serpent spit the tongue On this path unholy liberty Setting sun what has become Now vanquish end of days I Quaerere Ut Mortem Non Vitare Me Some things are better left unchanged Intrinsic engaged Only a moment then the second stage… Seven stars await your majesty Climbing towards the precipice A glimpse away eternity after you and Me

G.N.O.N. 05:56
When the fence corrodes Which fate will you decide Graveyards now are temples To those who wish to die Ever changing currents everlasting in Our eyes My will unbroken never changing in these eyes We will not break the circle Burn bright the flame arise Intact a severed head still Bonded in ghastly symmetry We are sinew and bone and man Creates this test Whats dead shall never rest In this temple with no name With chisel and stone fury your coffin made.... Armed in stark conviction clothed In black and shades of grey Draped in blood… Ceremonium Simplify this life while reaching only Death You’ve been relinquished Extinguished as your breath No more mass restriction no more faith submit to pain Open up My sacrament I reek of days of punishment Revel in My darkness drink the wine of terror Insulate We must intimidate your loss becomes My gain A manifest ordained allegiance without question Upon your fleshen cross the crimson stain No war without allegiance No faith to conquer pain Bow down I’ll urinate and wash away your name Into the fire We rise the children of ashes Burnt by the bond of existence and resistance Extracting the deathgivers force Mine eyes a blur with blinding sight We shall urge you towards His light Benevolence Unholiness Rapture is your song Ceremonium The unexplained My clarity A given name of nothing...

I am finished so close your open door Never shall I return Look forward to the drowning shores Until the end forevermore This theme requires final lasting pilgrimage The old has become York Total graven war This odyssey fulfilled What’s left to owe? Empty hollow misery Keep warm this leather flesh I near the rusted industries The steel corroded Death These motors silent I leave as when they left Halfway to oblivion Towards desert stinking breath Total graven war This prophecy fulfilled What’s left to owe? Until the end until the final score Total fucking war Across the thinnest air Almost to oblivion Will you meet Me there? Over crimson mountain blasphemy Sunshine states an empty place Yet to the edge I am We areCome aleap My destiny/ Will you meet Me there? Total fucking war! This prophecy fulfilled What’s left to owe? Dead again Total fucking war! Dead again Oblivion!

Fuck your second coming our trinity is here I as the father you as My son I spit on the spirit of fear Unholy terror around Us We welcome Our chaos as one With hate pour the lead till thousands are dead Endlessly seeking the darkness then We become… Larger than life… closer to death Sever the ties I am your breath Stronger than life… longer than death Spirit suffice all that is left No constant limitation freedom from the skin Exposing the face newly embraced Peeling the layers within A metamorphosis a true hypothesis We are Larger than life… closer to death Sever the ties I am your breath Stronger than life… longer than death New is the dawn right as the left Reign in the senses heighten Our sight Demented invent as the day becomes night Dethroned & uprooted I’m staking My claim In you they will lose any hope to remain A victim I’ll make you & take you with Me Reliving your failures I share tragedy One thing is certain We all live the lie In Death may We relish no future denied! There is no future until I have died There is no future until We have died Black as the past black out the present Blacken the future no future denied! There is no future until I have died

We are the night we are His Light Bring on our tragedy This beast has Quadrahorned It’s shifting shape grows endlessly We search the sky We live to lie Deny Our travesty In Our bleak december through the embers Guide Us willfuly In sight in body in mind insanity A force beyond what man can see The second it takes to breathe Do you believe We are all We are nothing We are one We are all Until you take Me uphold Our fall As I beseech thee as We are all Until you take Me uphold our fall As I beseech thee as We are all As We are nothing as We are for/four As We are all We all shall fall We are the night His only light Unlike christ fantasy Thunder clouds announce His storm & all reborn die endlessly And you have kept Me This is My home Amidst your chaos never alone As We are all as We are nothing As We are one as We are…

Initiations: Which of thee will rest as sacred Which of thee hast become born And round through seven circles And scorch the feet amongst the morn Desperate enlightenment – I insist Take Us through haze till We form I swear the oath Our document Again Our flesh has torn A stage amongst the heavens A shape no skin can take A realm beyond the seven A state above the norm I am just dirt and feces A species nevermore We are what’s left no more And for this wish forgive Me I tread beneath your storm In debted to the chance We dance on tight ropes ever worn Desolate among the burning garden Admit this servant to take Your flesh is Mine to take Enraptured ensnared in your trap Yet I’d tear off all these limbs and join You Forever this is My quest Raping the denizens sacrificial limbs And for this wish anoint Me Bathe Me in His light – as bright as night For now accepted the trial in My sight Spiritus nostro tuus ignis: Pledge of the spirit hedge every bet Darkness engorging silver intent Blade ever red Discourse amended needs never met Chosen from roots in this earth planting death Flame ever red And for this wish accept Me I swim between Your storm And to this wish enlightenment Fuck you you did not see this coming Break the clasp We never last Yet ask to generate no more We are what’s left no more Sinistra manus: So here We are together at last Enjoy the fruits of Our labors Half way to six In stature The road is dark – yes! Less We cannot judge nor prepare Nor set these tables May you have the honor See the tapestry Your majesty of thorns I have made this in humble bliss Your halls My walls adorned Recklessly reborn Grando mortem:

about

New York black metal titans Black Anvil return with their third full length ‘Hail Death’—an uncompromisingly heavy mix of Dissection, Slayer and Behemoth. While many of Black Anvil’s black metal contemporaries are born from the bedroom, ‘Hail Death’ is the filthy sound of the New York streets----gritty, punishing, strong and real. In the 4 years since their last record, Black Anvil have tirelessly toured and played shows with the likes of Marduk, Watain, Inquisition and more, and with ‘Hail Death’ Black Anvil rightfully take their place amongst those contemporary black metal giants.
