WE REMAIN
How red and full of truth are not
the stories by the fires told?
Absorbed and passed on by every dreamer
Madly drunk from embers glow
Always with the whirling dust
of winding roads to mask our trail
And cloak the paths 'pon which we rode
So that legends dim might tell our tale
On waves of wildest oceans borne
In roaring chant a song unheard
Thus was brought the lore, to havens far
The echo of the primal word
For what is truth but what we make it?
A tale deformed by wind and rain
By temple stone and eager flame
Concealed, in spirit
We remain
Like a marooned enchantress stranded in the tropic of deceit
The truth abides within us all
Patiently awaiting the rise of her star
And its vengeful light to shine on our betrayal
For in the breaking of the final dawn and the silencing of all
Her muted voice shall rise in grace anew
At the unweaving of the webs and the dismantling of the world
We will remember her
Hark unto its hissing tongue
That dark wind of which dreams are made
On it blows, that fateful song
On and on and on
What if life is but an intermission?
The flickering of dying flame
And in the endless night in which it burns
Concealed, forever
We remain

This year I'm turning 50. One of the few things I really feel passionate about and look forward to, is new Watain releases. This song is an epic masterpiece. Selim's spirit is lingering in it.

[@abbeesia6498]

@@Lilith218 Hi. I do not consider Watain's path to be "satanic" as is commonly understood. Me being a consecrated gnostic christian priest, I find that their path shares many things with the gnostic, dualistic path.

It was a wonderful surprise going into this album with no prior knowledge and getting greeted by this duet between Farida and Erik.

[@ErikaLioness]

Every Watain song is like a ritual, a spiritual journey.

[@BloodisthenewBlackFr]

I actually cried when I heard Farida singing. Thank you Watain for this masterpiece.

blood is the new black your name doesnt make any sense get a new one or else :P,,,,

[@jaketheadventurer2772]

I’m still new to black metal, so I don’t know Farida. What is Farida’s last name so that I can google?

[@BloodisthenewBlackFr]

@@jaketheadventurer2772 it’s Farida Lemouchi. Her brother, Selim, played guitar live with Watain for maybe a few years. You can see him on the video btw, big bearded guy. He had a band called The Devil’s Blood and Farida was the singer. It was an amazing band, you should definitely check it out. Selim took his own life in 2014. May he rest in chaos.

[@lapasht4634]

This is going to be one of Watain's best albums. How can you deny, at this point, that Watain has cemented themselves as a pinnacle and milestone in the story of black metal?

[@shrektical7674]

Lol str8 facts this is gonna blow behemoths 2014 vibe out the water

[@ROFLBOB24]

Nobody can really contest that, I knew about Watain before I got into BM. I used to think I couldn't listen to BM because the recording quality was toaster, but that recording quality is in the vast minority and is more of a meme at this point.

[@shrektical7674]

@r33mote I would argue this is gonna be their best work js

[@shrektical7674]

@r33mote wow hm look production may not be what your looking for but maybe if they recorded in an abandon urinal you'd listen...the 3 tracks they release are next level song writing and a landmark in the years to come for Swedish black metal and all black metal for times to come. But what do I know I just been in this shit longer than 18 years

[@shrektical7674]

@r33mote and im not gonna go back and forth but the response will be massive and positive for this album just watch

[@equ170]

Farida's Voice at the start brought back a lot of memories. Very fitting, great mood... cant wait to hear more.

[@cr7672]

I've always loved the epic sounds of Watain.

[@Blodraake]

What a massive offering! Might be one of their greatest single compositions!

[@CouncilofOneElectronic]

Very raw but also very melodic, almost bluesy in parts (the guitar solo in particular). Eric's beautiful infernal mysticism shines through these poetic odes to the dark as usual. Watain are really pushing the boundaries of black metal into new and interesting territory while remaining true to the aggressive and primal spirituality that characterised the roots of the genre. Love it!

[@ytbr3383]

Powerful and beautiful song! The female vocals just add more power to the great atmosphere which Watain always have. Cannot wait for full album!

[@kwnwps]

thats not just female vocals. thats the mouth of satan ! :)

[@Mark.13.]

I like the sound, it's very clear. This song is very Tiamat from best times.

Thank a lot for make of this song a song long, we need more masterpieces like this🖤🤘🏻

[@jeranbrown82]

There’s Watain and then there’s everything else. There is no comparing. They are a force of black cosmic nature. It’s plain to see that the way they work their magic has leveled the mountains of any standard ideal, erecting temples of great achievement for themselves in both music and the abyssic arts… and something beyond inspiring to us all. Thank you Watain.

[@justinecelain77]

This is going to become "Waters of Ain" masterpiece like genius song and I absolutely love it!
