O, Mighty Flame
Consume this world
Render unto ashes
This foul mockery of creation
Kill and make anew
IGNE NATURA RENOVATUR INTEGRA
O, Cleansing Fire
Ravage and destroy
Engulf and devour
This vile civilization of man
Die and be reborn
IGNE NATURA RENOVATUR INTEGRA
From the charred and barren Earth
Life shall emerge from death
Purity through endless conflagration
Absorb the life-force of the dying world
Transubstantiated matter
Universal magnum opus
O, Scorching Maw
Enemy of opulence
Illuminate the truth
And reshape the nature of reality
Reform and invigorate
IGNE NATURA RENOVATUR INTEGRA

Feasting upon the dead
Growing within decay
Digesting the deceased
Consuming organic mass
I am reborn
One million-fold
Among the countless spores
Drifting on the wind
Mycelium
Sprouting
In rotten earth
Devouring
The dying
And putrid loam
Lysotrophic
Extracellular digestion
Enabling my
Reanimation
My life force carries on through eternity
Endless cycles of creation and death
Molecular restructuring of corporeal form
Saprotrophic Reincarnation
The process repeats in perpetuity
Again and again and again
Hyphae absorb
The broken bonds of existence
Dispersing essence
Expanding forever
My life force carries on through eternity
Endless cycles of creation and death
Molecular restructuring of corporeal form
Saprotrophic Reincarnation
The process repeats in infinity
Again and again and again

Gathered in darkness
Standing beneath the uncountable heavens
Upon this mountain
A circle we have formed
Ingesting the mushrooms
We prepare for our journey
Treacherous and unknown
The voyage to within
The fires are glowing
In mesmerizing hues
The drums pounding
In rhythm with the flames
Flickering visions
Of things that are not real
Hallucinations
Or prophesies from beyond
Minds warping reality
Spirits invoking our alliance
Concepts becoming thoughts and words
Knowledge attained through madness
Evolution of the sapien brain
Symbiotic growth
We transform from lower flesh
Into the likeness of the gods
Destiny unfolding revealing
The path to higher existence
Down from the mountain
With wisdom in our hearts
Unlocked potential
Humanity advanced
Out from the stone age
Into the age of steel
Ruling this planet
The glorious tyrants of the future

Strike! Hammer of the sun
Vengeance from on High
Bolt of stellar flame
Incinerate!
Crush! Annihilate my foes
Enemies of truth
Mindless and obtuse
Lay their souls to waste
Nuclear aurora
I call thee down!
Fury of the Heavens divine
Solar mass destruction
Fire from beyond
Ultraviolet cosmic inferno
Come! Ray of cleansing death
Unrelenting force
Beam of molten power
Descend!
Torch! Illuminate the earth
In radiating glow
Burn away the sin of ignorance
Coronal mass ejection
Exterminate this world
Electromagnetic storm of plasma
Boil away the blood
Carbonize the bones
Reduce the age of Man
from Gold to Ash and Stone

Fruiting bodies
Sprouting from the soil
Feel the changing winds
Know whats coming
Know it's time to go
Ready to deploy
Invasive legion
Unleashed into the air
Ejected and dispersed
Microscopic
Ancient pathogen
predatory seed
Spore
Projection of death
Spore cloud
Of gloom
Inhaled and ingested
Absorbed by the host
Plague born
Colonize and conquer
This world is yours
To infect and consume
Spread upon the howling gale
To every corner of the earth
Floating cells in every gust
Fungus looking to take root
Spores of blight infect the world
Yielding devastating plague
Malignant colonies emerge
Triumphant life-form takes it's place

Dark are the halls of thought
In the minds of fools
Contented with enough
To seek no further growth
Stoke the inner flame
The brand that kindles brand
Master of reality
The wielder of thought
I have awakened thee
Guiding flame
I entreat thee
Pillar of light
I banish thee
Ignorant darkness
I claim thee
Well of knowledge
The torch of the mind lights the path to glory
I seek the treacherous path
Of self-discovery
Torch of revelation
Guiding my way
Using the powers
Of self-fulfilment
Gain the vision
of future sight
The torch of the mind lights the path to glory
Descend the stairs
Chamber below
Leaving all fear
behind
I wield in my hand
A sword forged of wisdom
I will prevail
In the war against deceit
Illuminate
mirror above
tarnished embodiment
Behold the force of reason
Shine the defying light
Vanquish the figure of hate
Pierced through, it collapses dead

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names.

De l'importance du titre ou Comment une juxtaposition de mots savamment choisis permettra à l'auditeur attentif de repérer chez Old Nick une transition vers un cadre spatio-temporel plus proche de l'ère victorienne gothique, confirmée par les clavecins et cuivres au synthé, mais aussi de parodier le contexte susmentionné, parodie amplifiée par un raw black metal chaotique : un essai au sujet de T.N.O.T.A.A.T.P.B.T.Q.A.S.F.A.B.O.O.T.D.O.S.S.T.T.E.V.H.S mené par Sir Jordan Vauvert en l'an 2024.

More bleak, enveloping atmospheric black metal from the masters at the Vendetta label, “aevum” is both harrowing & strangely beautiful.
