lyrics
Ashes of love
Clutched in my shaking, weary, hollow hands
I am too depressed to show you how depressed I really am
It feels beyond expression
The weight of the mask buries me into silence
And no one can tell
The light inside me is out
Screaming for help whilst muting myself
Trapped in a secret mental hell
Where destructive fires burn
Striking a match
Under the mask
Burning myself again
Hating myself
Hurting myself
Muting myself again
I am too depressed to show you how depressed I am
Ashes of love, clutched in my shaking, weary, hollow hands
It feels beyond expression
The weight of the mask buries me into silence
And no one can tell
The light in me is out
I'm screaming for help whilst I'm muting myself
Trapped in a secret mental hell
Where destructive fires burn
I'm not alive and I'm wasting my turn
So strike the match cos I will never learn
Forever and ever this fire will burn
Everything reduced to ashes and I am the urn
I am the hollow urn
I am the urn
Everything reduced to ashes and I am the urn
Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
While Labyrinthian is my favourite metal track on this record, Become Ethereal, to me, is Serena's love letter to Jeremy Soule's ES:V OST. You can clearly hear that it has affected her deeply. Refreshing melodic black.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub
A heavy blend of post-rock and shoegaze from Argentina's Ox en Mayo Alto rides big emotional crests and contemplative valleys. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 27, 2021
Two major players from Japan's alt-rock scene team up for a grunge-pop EP that explores noisy highs and melancholy lows. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 5, 2022
