Eyes open to a silhouetted landscape
Blue, white, creeps up the dome of sky
The fire now smoldering in ash
As smoke reaches for the lights
I take notice of the silence
My heartbeat audible, palpable
The creak of twisting wood
Reaches out to me from the west
Slowly a blade of light descends
A foreboding path westward revealed
I slowly begin my ascent
Among the jagged crags
Upward I go, bones shattering
Until a scream from below, my familiar menace
My climb hastens, fueled by fear
There's death in these mountains, everywhere
Upward along the narrow stone path
A precarious staircase, static
Night chips away at day
Soon the cliffs will be ingulfed in flame
The shadow moves along
The menace will return
A piercing screech attacking my ears
Upward it climbed, gaining on me

Wow this album has been in my collection for a while and Im just getting around to giving it a proper listen. This is really good, can’t believe that I passed over this for so long. Bret

Masterfully crafted web of athmosphere and entertvined blasts of force. Soothing. Yet driving. Sometimes demanding trip into the new dawn. The feeling of pain you get is only that of growing strength and broken shackles. The overcoming of whatever binds you down takes a huge effort and lots of pain. But you will be rewarded!!
Powerfull and beautiful experience. Never a dull moment. veganerd666

Chiral takes you on a ride through the night sky on this one. Some of the rides are loud, some are long, and some are both but all are excellent. There are some quieter rides and two covers thrown in to boot, Andy
