lyrics
Leave me be.
this is the severing of our paths.
thou hast led me to the furthest edge.
but turn back here, do not weep.
thou canst not stride beside me this final trek
nor I with thee, thou willst walk this alone.
yet thou art wholly pledged to me:
I have given thine blood the cimmerian kiss
of them, that above death have risen,
above life. I am their emissary.
I bide your arrival.
whilom drinking of death and calignosity,
the black wine from this chalice, lone,
we, sweepingly, shall sink into one
and eternal be.
farewell,
return shall not be mine.
but thou thyself will come, later.
godspeed, the water,
is calling for the third time.
"Recorded during SUNN O)))s European tour 2005, culminating at Roskilde Festival, Denmark" : laissez-moi vous dire qu'il n'y a pas que cette tournée qui arrive à son point culminant mais aussi Sunn O))) d'un point de vue général car Solstitium Fulminate, qui sert d'appendice à Black One, est un monument qui conjugue noirceur vampirique avec une certaine forme d'absolu. Le ton musical plonge très vite dans les graves pour nous faire entrer dans le royaume de la mort. Attila Csihar est un Charon. Jordan Vauvert
