The first single we released for this album. It's one of our more aggressive and technical songs. Lyrically, it's about the Castlevania Netflix series and the violent revenge taken against the church after Lisa Tepes is burned at the stake for witchcraft.

lyrics
I am death
Darkness manifested
Left without a purpose
Humanity revoked
Horrified I watched my tie to sanity ripped away
Labeled a witch and burned at the stake
Pointing their fingers, they shriek heresy
Mindlessly sinking to depravity
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you’ll come to find
I walk the earth now wandering alone
Searching for answers that never come
How could these people just stand aside?
Watching the innocent wither and die
One year has passed now since that wretched day
This human affliction I will erase
Not one soul leaves this place today
The sins of these people washed away by flame
Cold dead eyes
Staring into you
Tremble and plead
If you think it will save you
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you will come to find
There is nowhere to turn
Now the flames surround you
A hellscape of your own creation
[ Lead - Connor M. ]
There is no hope for you now
My wrath is undying
Mercy has no place here
As you will come to find
There is nowhere to turn
Now the flames surround you
A hellscape of your own creation
I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
Another seamless blend of extreme genres from Stortregn. Killer riffs, tasty basslines, and lots of fun tech influences in the composition and instrumentation make this an absolute banger front to back. Facepalming Panda
