THE SKY CRIES TEARS OF ICE
FROZEN TEARS FOR FROZEN TIMES
SHAMAIN KISSES THE LANDS AND WE RECEIVE
ITS PUNISHMENT DIVINE
YOUR LANDSCAPES ARE POEMS OF PURITY AND DESOLATION
A BEAUTIFUL WASTELAND OF SNOW
BRINGER OF WEAKNESS AND FEAR
GOD OF THE SONS OF THE FROST
THE SKY..
OH LORD WINTER, MIGHTY WEEP OF THE EARTH
THE FROZEN WHITE WARRIOR RETURNS
TREMBLE ENEMY YOU OF THE WINTER
THE SONS OF THE FROST ARE HERE TO STAY
ONCE SUN HAS FALLEN
NOR THE WIND WILL BLOW US AWAY

KELTOY WARRIORS
RIDE ACROSS THE EARTH
COVERED BY THE MOONLIGHT
THE WIND KISSES OUR FACES
PAGAN BONFIRES
ARE OUR HEARTS
NEVERENDING FLAMES
MYSTIC CIRCLES OF FIRE
TEAR APART THE CHRISTIAN RULES
IN THE DARKNESS OF THE NIGHT WE LIVE
OUR PAINTED FACES MEAN
WAR

SAILING TOWARDS THE END OF THE WORLD
ARMED WITH BEERS AXES AND OAK
A CREW OF BRAVE MEN SET OF SAILED
TO MEET THE UNKNOW THERE´S NO PLACE FOR THE WEAKS
IN THE AGE WHEN EARTH WAS PLANE
AND DRAGONS KILLED MEN
THEY WROTE THEIR OWN HISTORY
AND THEY WERE GUIDED BY THE WIND
ON THE ROUTE OF THE FROZEN HORIZONS
WITH THE SOUND OF THE WAVES IN OUR FEET
DAYS AND NIGHTS, PASSED BY
AND THEY PUT THEIR TRUST IN THE SEA
FOR LACK OF FOOD, LAGER AND WOMEN
THEIR FAITH WAS FADING AWAY
BUT THAT´S THEIR ROAD THAT´S THEIR WILL
A FLAME THAT STANDS IN THE SEA
BUT FOG TRACHEROUS AND DELIVERED ÉM TO A MAELMSTROM
THAT SWALLOWED THEIR SHIP AND EXTINGUISHED THEIR FLAME
NOW THEIR BODIES ARE PASTURE OF MARINE BEASTS
WITHOUT LIFE BUT GLORIOUS
THEIR MESSAGE EVEN CAN BE FELT IN THE SEA
AFTER THEY BECAME ONE WITH THE OCEAN
AND GRASPED THEIR AXES FOR ONE LAST TIME
ON WAVES OF GLORY THEY RODE
ON WAVES OF GLORY THEY WILL FOREVER RIDE

WHERE THE RIVER ENDS ITS FLOWING
AT THE FROZEN SHORES WE STAND
WEAK SNOWFLAKES FALL DOWN
THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
WARRIOR, LORD OF THE WAR
IN YOUR NAME WE WILL FIGTH
THEY TRY TO STEAL THE LAND WHERE WE WERE BORN
WE HOWL LIKE HUNGRY WOLVES
SHARP´S THE BLADE THAT CROSSES MY HEART
THIS GROUND BECOMES MY GRAVE
INTO THE BATTLE READY TO DIE
IMMORTAL FURY , IMMORTAL PRIDE

HE WHO WAS BORN WHEN NIGHT CONQUERED DAY
WHILE LIGHTNING ROARED THROUGH RAINY CLOUDS
AND GODS WERE HAILED IN HIS NAME
SEED OF WARRIOR, PREMISE OF WAR
GREW UP TO BECAME BEAST AND FORGET
BEING A PREY OF COWARDS WHO ATTACK
WHEN THE EARTH NEEDS TO REST
TIME PASSED BY, YEARS WENT AWAY
WINTER BY WINTER HE AWAITED IN THE SNOW
RAINS CAME AND RAINS LEFT
AND THE CLAY DREW THE FUTURE HE YEARNED FOR
´OH GREEN WOODEN THRONE
NOW YOU HAVE TURNED UNCOMFORTABLE, INCOMPLETE´
-LOOK FOR THE NORTHERN SHORES AND FIND THE ANSWERS
THAT WIND OFFERS YOU-
ONE NIGHT A RAVEN SCREAMED HIS NAME
IN DREAMS REALISED WHEN LEAVING THIS LAND
ON THIRD AUTUM´S NIGHT
FOLLOW THE WAY OUT OF LIGHT
HE WHO WAS BORN WHEN RAVENS CROSSED THE SKY
AT THE EARTH WHERE THE FEAR AINT TAUGH
RAN TO THE FOREST FOLLOWING THE OATH
BUT WEAK AND ABANDONED HE LAID DOWN TO SLEEP
AND THE LICKS OF A WOLF WOKE HIM UP
AND ON ITS BACK HE RODE FORTH
RIDING WITHOUT REST JOURNEY BY JOURNEY
HE WON THE BATTLES OF HUNGRY AND SNOW
LONELINESS, DARKNESS, NOW CAN´T TOUCH HIM
HE CONTEMPLATES THE OCEAN´S SPLENDOUR
AS HE FELT WIND ON HIS HAIR GRASPED HIS SWORD STARING AT THE WAVES
TITAN, YOUR VOICE IS ETERNAL YOU´LL BE MY LAST STEP
THIS IS THE GOD I´VE AWAITED TO OPEN ITS ARMS FOR MY BODY TO DIE
I WILL SAIL FAR AND BEYOND UNTIL MY HEART STOPS
HIS WOLF HOWLED AND RAVENS CRIED
FROM THE CLOUDS TEARS FELL DOWN IN THE SHAPE OF THE RAIN
NOW THAT´S FAR TOO LONG IN A DISTANT TIME
HOWEVER HIS SWORD STILL DWELLS ON THESE SHORES

IN THE DIN OF THE BATTLE I COULD SEE
RAISED SWORDS SPRINKLING THE WIND ON WITH BLOOD
A FIGURE IN BLACK AROSE FROM ABOVE
FROM A HEAVEN IN FLAMES AN ETERNAL STORM
GODDESS OF POWER
DARKNESS AND NIGHT
I HAIL THEE THEY ARE AFFRAID OF YOUR EYES
A FLYING RAVEN SPREADED ITS WINGS
OF DEATH AND CHAOS
SOUND OF THE SWORDS CLAMOURING FOR WAR
AS THE LAND IS SET ON FIRE
MISFORTUNED BE THOSE WHO CROSS IN OUR WAYS
BECAUSE THEY WILL KNOW THE RAGE OF OUR GODS
RIVERS OF FIRE WERE OPENED IN THE EARTH
TAKING MY ENEMIES SOUL TO REST IN WAR
BLOOD REIGNED IN THE FIELDS
AND THERE´S ONLY THE SMELL OF VICTORY LEFT

In the Land of Ghosts
by Olde Throne
supported by 4 fans who also own “WAR HAS JUST BEGUN”
I've recently spent a lot of time looking for new black metal that would be moving without sacrificing to cheesy tropes. Olde Throne is by far my best find. The sound is perfect, raw and brutal, epic and gripping. This album is filled with memorable moments of glory (that powerful transition to the riff at the beginning of Cliffs of Culzean, the guitars in Greyfriars Kirkyard...). In the Land of Ghosts definitely possesses the eternal beauty of classics. A must have for all BM fans, trust me!

Bangers everywhere. Tracks on here put the HARD in hard dance. But it's not afraid to change the pace either, bringing a well-rounded album.
