Graveland - 1993 - In the Glare of Burning Churches

                      

                                      Black the ultimate colour, darkness the only aim

                                        evil the proper impulse, death the only mercy

                                      Nothing was forgotten and nothing will be ever forgotten

                                      all those who rose their swords against odious christianity

                                                         will live forever in dark legend

 Dark smoke covered the sky, red glow lighted the darkness of the night, the wind tried to blow
 clouds of smoke about but he did not have enough power to do it, the moon tried to brighten
 everything by his light but suffused by scarlet of ravage he had to hide himself behind dark
 clouds and only fire was the only actor of that night, dancing savagely crackled gaily releasing
 long burning tongues like legendary dragon, fire wanted to make his dreams come true and reach
 the sky. He knows that this hours belongs to him, he knows that his time will end soon and
 that his dance clean the hurted land. There were people who tried to enmesh him but their remains
 whiten in ash, their baptisms and temples did not help them. Now like shafts of fire light
 the way of returning of ancient pagan cult... today grey shadows under cover of the night creep
 out from wolves earthwork, spirits with hatred in red eyes. Now wolves go down the hills
 bravely leaving the woods, soon fiery dragons will show them the way of their roam crusade.
 Fire soothe wild hearts, hearts full of sadness and hankering, fire soothe wild grey shadows

                                  full of hatred, shadows that go away and hide themselves in

                              dark impenetrable hiding place in the woods when the day comes.

 This CD include stuff for demo '93 and EP 7" GRAVELAND, stuff inspired by great
 events that took place in Norway in that time, inspired by events that were the beginning of big

                                             movement against christianity. All these 

 events took place three years ago. During these three years many things changed. Now there
 are only few people who are faithful to true ideas of Black Metal. I dedicate this CD to
                                                                   these few.

                                     Although we will have power of only thousand swords

                                           we will hoist a victory flag on vatican basilice !

                                Cover include photos showing pagan reality in Poland 1994-95
                                                                War still lasts...
