Through the black sharp mountains
Up the winding stair
Up, up, up, we're almost there
Shadow and flame
Broken bones and dirt
The call of drum and horn
From under the earth
Softly uttered groans
Leaked forth from age-worn stone
Men of honor falter at the horrors they have known
That is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons even death may die
Behold the nameless city
Older than legend itself
Birthed before the Angel's fall
Before the gates of hell
Primitive altars
Fashioned not by man
Carvings of antiquity
Worn away by wind and sand
Worn away by weather's hand
That is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons even death may die
From the twilight shadows
Time ceases to exist
Nothing upon nothing
In the black abyss
Nothing upon nothing
In the black abyss
Behold the nameless city
Older than legend itself
Birthed before the Angel's fall
Before the gates of hell
Electro gothy graveyard synth rock with amazing production. Featuring members of Wolfmen of Mars and Ice Dragon. Catchy tracks that are sure to get stuck in your head. Ice Dragon
This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10 Buzzario
I'm sad to see this era of Beastmaker close out but this is a phenomenal way to do! Black Butterfly might be the best thing they've ever done. dianonhead
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
