Une lune de zinc tombe sur le lac
et se reflète sur l’onde
calme et plane
Une volée de cygnes perce la lumière blanche
et se pose sans bruit
dans le rond de l’astre
Au milieu des roseaux, quelques nénuphars
tapissent la surface de l’eau
comme un damier
J’assiste à la scène depuis la grève
ébloui par sa beauté
et sa mélancolie
« Circa mea pectora
multa sunt suspiria
de tua pulchritudine,
que me ledunt misere. »
--
A zinc moon falls on the lake
and is reflected on the waters
calm and flat
A flock of swans pierces through the white light
and lands without a sound
in the circle of the star
Among the reeds, a few water lilies
carpet the surface of the water
like a draughtboard
I am witnessing the scene from the shore
dazzled by its beauty
and its melancholy
'Circa mea pectora
multa sunt suspiria
de tua pulchritudine,
que me ledunt misere.'

Atmospheric black metal from Indonesia, with a major emphasis on grandiose and cinematic leads. To be listened on a lonely hike at the edge of a cliff, gazing at the endless horizon. Marunata
I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-
After a recent breakup this album was a wise purchase. It let me shed my tears and realize that while it hurts, it's all going to be okay, but oh god do I miss her. Logan (???)
