Watain - Reaping Death Lyrics






There is a place beyond the dreamworlds,
Past the womb of night,
Lying in wait beyond the barriers of light,
Shunned by the living, cursed by the dead
Here's no peace, here's no peace

None within, none without
Skinned bare by daggers that never doubt
Timeless in wisdom, unbound in might,
Holy Evil!

By trembling hands concealed,
Yet by fearless ones revealed

There the blood of Abel impregnates the soil,
In which hungry darkness dwells and serpents coil,
So that plants may rise to bear the strangest fruit,
For all of ye that hunger

Higher! Higher! Come on you sons of fire!
Daughters of the black moon,
Practitioners of art most dire

Dance! Dance! In twisting, white-eyed trance,
Let us praise the flowering darkness

Brush forth across the land of Nod ye wicked ones,
Ye who wear the mark and hold the keys,
Come now, let us worship,
At the womb of blasphemies

Rivers of blood! Rivers of blood!
For the black earth's quenchless thirst,
The offering must never cease,
Until the last man has been slain
Upon the altar of Mefisto

Higher! Higher!Let's set the night on fire!
Black moon bear witness to our rite,
Beneath the devil's pyre

Unchain, Set free, the flames of the Adversary!
Scorch the earth and devour all,
That sifted from the ashes be

Hail! Hail! Thou who makes the cosmos wail!
In anguish as we fuck the world,
And sodomize the god that failed

Cain! Cain! By thy blade let all god's men be slain!
Harvest now the fruits of death and set the night aflame!

Again!
Fire!

Gather! Gather! Raise the flames for so long scattered!
For aeons cursed, yet proud we stood,
Our liberation all that mattered

It's time! It is time! The bells of Armageddon chime!
Rejoice ye now, oh hungry ones,
Harvest time has come...

    The Death Of Black Metal
    After months upon months - perhaps even years - of hype, the new album from the self proclaimed saviours of black metal, Watain's album has arrived. Does it live up to expectations? For me personally, yes. For the crowds of kiddies who believe that Watain are actually evil, I'm sure it lives up to their expectations aswell.
    After their last full length Sworn to the Dark was released, it was clear what direction this band wanted to take with their music, and whilst at best it was insulting to anyone who is more than a casual listener of black metal it didn't even begin to reach the levels of shame that Lawless Darkness is responsible for.
    Now, why would I say such a thing? This album contains great musicianship, some well thought out poetry and has some decent artwork to go along. So why all the hate?
    This is nothing more than a pop album, a social experiment for the consumer, a vehicle for the metal "mass media". We get the same old recycled riffs, the same old typical metaphysical bullshit lyrics about "evil", the same old Necromorbus studio production and the same recycled attitude that these guys actually believe they are the scourge of the universe.
    There is literally nothing more to say than to avoid this piece of shit. And before all of the kiddies and fangirls with their Watain tattoos, Watain patches, Watain shirts, Watain posters, Watain beer mugs, Watain car airfresheners and Watain condoms decide to get angry at me and cast a chaos magic spell to destroy me, just remember - Yes, I am talking shit about those three grown men who are posing on magazine covers covered in fake blood, with CGI snakes.
    And here I was, thinking black metal was about the individual and not some ridiculous group mindset.
    PS; Did I mention the CGI snakes? „

    C.... V....

    Yea, they're Attention Whores, but the Sound they're playing is awesome groovy you know? Oh btw: Hail SATIN! \m/

    Colhendo Morte

    Há um lugar além dos mundos de sonho,
    Passado o ventre da noite,
    À espreita para além das barreiras de luz,
    Evitado pelos vivos, amaldiçoado pelos mortos
    Aqui não há paz, aqui não há paz

    Nenhum dentro, nenhum fora
    Pele nua por punhais que nunca hesitam
    Eterno em sabedoria, não ligado em força
    Santo Mal!

    Por mãos trêmulas escondido,
    No entanto, por mais destemidos revelado

    Lá, o sangue de Abel impregna o solo,
    Na escuridão que habita e com fome serpentes enrolam,
    Para que as plantas possam crescer para suportar a estranha fruta,
    Para todos vós que tem fome.

    Mais alto! Mais alto! Vamos lá, vocês filhos do fogo!
    Filhas da lua negra,
    Os praticantes da arte mais terrível!

    Dançem! Dançem! Na torção, transe de olhos brancos,
    Louvemos a escuridão florescendo

    Pincele de um lado para outro na terra de Nod vós os perversos,
    Vós que usam a marca e seguram as chaves,
    Venha agora, adoremos,
    No ventre de blasfêmias

    Rios de sangue! Rios de sangue!
    Para a sede insaciável da terra preta,
    A oferta nunca deve cessar,
    Até o último homem ser morto
    Sobre o altar de Mefisto

    Mais alto! Mais alto! Vamos colocar fogo na noite!
    Lua Negra testemunha de nosso rito,
    Sob a pira do diabo

    Desacorrente, liberte , as chamas do adversário!
    Queimem a terra e devorem tudo,
    Que peneirado das cinzas sejam

    Hail! Hail! Tu que faz o cosmos lamentar-se!
    Em angústia enquanto nós fodemos o mundo,
    E sodomizamos o deus que falhou

    Caim! Caim! Por tua lâmina deixe todos os homens de deus serem mortos!
    Colham agora os frutos da morte e coloquem a noite em chamas!

    Mais uma vez!
    Fogo!

    Reúna! Reúna! Levantem as chamas espalhadas por tanto tempo!
    Por eras amaldiçoados, mas ficamos orgulhosos,
    Nossa libertação tudo o que importava

    Está na hora! É tempo! Os sinos do Armageddon badalam!
    Regozijai-vos agora, oh os famintos,
    O tempo da colheita chegou ...

  22. c.... r....

    It's time! It is time! The bells of Armageddon chime!
    Rejoice ye now, oh hungry ones,
    Harvest time has come

  50. J.... L....

    When I had seen them play in NYC's Irving Plaza in NYC back May '12, I had seen/heard them for the 1st time and so they may have played this track live and like every other song, it slayed ! The guitar sound here is very good and the vocals can actually be understood...A GOOD production helps BLACK METAL NOT ALWAYS a rough or low-budget one ! Thanks for the lyrics too ! (Sick lyrics, but well written and blasphemous !)
