"Den siste" by Satyricon

Satyricon:"Den siste", (from the album "The age of Nero", 2008):

I det stille rom
I det klare sinn
Et nakent lerret
Foran han
En urørt mark

Allmektighet
Av rike stort
Den siste vår

Allmektighet
Endelig
Vår siste stund
En kjempes slag

Det bor i han
Et storslått hjerte
Den siste kriger
Som aldri ga seg
Som skulle frem

Den siste stund
I naken drakt
Nå står vi her

På avguds mark
Den siste dag
Vi visste kom
På moder jord

Fordervet sjel
Vrir sitt indre
Fordømte barn
Av Satans sol

Du synker
For eget seil
Forbannet være
Ditt daue sinn

Herre...
Makt...
Sett dem fri
I storsinns tegn

En langsom ferd
For en herdet sjel
Det ville seg
Det måtte skje
Naturens gang

Allmektighet
Av rike stort
Den siste vår

Allmektighet
Endelig
Vår siste stund
En kjempes slag

Et skjær av lys
Som kaster håp
På en fattig mann

Som ikke vet
Hva bor i han
Et salig tegn
På undergang

Den siste stund
I naken drakt
Nå står vi her

På avguds mark
Den siste dag
Naturens gang
Vårt endelikt

(lyrics: Satyr Wongraven)

(Actually I was beginning to think, that "The age of Nero" was the very last album ever from legendary norwegian black metal-duo Satyricon, because it has been five long years since the album was released back in 2008....but luckily I was totally wrong :-) A few weeks ago the sweet rumour hit my ears....SOFT AND GENTLY....that there´s a new Satyricon-full length in the horizon, set for a september-release! And me who thought the time of miracles was gone with the wind....ha ha....

I will not claim to be the biggest Satyricon-fan on earth, but Satyr and Frost´s....erm....dare I say....academic(!) contributions to the black metal-genre are just so important to keep the BLACK-FLAME alive. Let´s celebrate the great news with this dark, slow and freezing cold closer from "The age of Nero"...."Den siste"! The words "den siste" are norwegian for "the last one", but luckily it didn´t turn out this way, thank God....or should I say....Satan?! :-)

See you next time with yet another great heavy metal-song with lyrics, and this time it´s totally entertainment....THE DEATH METAL-RIFF OF MY LIFE HAS SEEN THE LIGHT OF DAY!!!!!!! And the band responsible is....well, sorry....you have to wait a couple of weeks, before it´s revealed :-)

See you!

Kind regards
