This is definitely the forgotten track from Citadel. It's sandwiched between the two Mammoths that are "Painters of the Tempest" and "Devour Me Colossus," and I never hear people talking about it. This song deserves more credit because it is truly amazing. Citadel is the best Progressive Death Metal album ever written in my opinion. The only ones who can compare are Blackwater Park by Opeth and Winter's Gate by Insomnium.

Insomnium is pure melodeath, but if you want another album to compare I'll throw in "The Weight of Oceans" by In Mourning. Opeth fans really like the band.

@@MrEgofreak when I posted this i had only heard Winter's Gate which I consider pure Prog Death, but yeah the rest of their stuff is melo death for sure. Yeah I love In Memoriam too.

You could make an argument for any of their albums being the best honestly.

Totally agree. I find Xenoflux also falls into the forgotten about camp. Both also follow a similar pacing and building up and down structure. To good.

5:09 and onward has to be one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. I still love this song as much as the first time I heard it 3 years ago. So looking forward the their new album, Urn.

The ending to this song will always take my breath away. Tim's violin work leading up to Xen's guttural vocals is a perfect combo. Pyricc and Upon the Tongue of Eloquence both do this really well

Letra en inglés 😁: Of blood and time within these veins Pulsing the dim, thundering Upon the pale horses crying, surreal Beksinki's hooves cascading heaven O blind fortune Darkness favours the brave, the fallen... Carrion Bring forth the stars and tear down the sky Blackest sister of evenfall From evening gown to armour Your skin is so cold Onwards, bright eyes and gilded hearts We rise and we fall From fire to ice, blind in defiance We race the sun O fortune How long must we dirge to breathe life? How long? How long? Blackest sister of evenfall From evening gown to armour Your touch is so cold Glorious tidings through sacrifice The long hard road through hell... At what cost? Pilgrims to kings, of nothing but pain Our hands are full yet our hearts are empty To the moths we pray, the crippled chorus... we despair The rise, The rust of icons, gods of dust within us Blackest sister of evenfall From evening gown to armour Forever ours O fortune How long must we dirge to breathe life? How long? How long? Cold, colder Ghost light lips, trace my scars Serpents of the earth, Feast... my heart I decay Colder, cold... decay
