Frozen Rivers What dreams here may come? Frozen rivers lost in time What vestige of life do I seek? The soul is lost to eternity Approaching the precipice, the pinnacle What vantage can I take? Shadows of a dying light obscure the pathway Leaves of ice fall to my feet Coalescing ice-winds whisper liberty I've got to let my spirit free Soaring high above the darkened vastness The cold grey crags where my warmth bleeds What dreams here may come? Frozen rivers lost in time What vestige of life do I seek? The soul is lost to eternity Approaching the precipice, the pinnacle What vantage can I take? Shadows of a dying light obscure the pathway Leaves of ice fall to my feet Coalescing ice-winds whisper liberty I've got to let my spirit free Soaring high above the darkened vastness The cold grey crags to which I cling

Frigid Tides 09:55
Frigid Tides O' frigid tides Your sons gone to war Fire and Ice Spread forth to salt the Earth Hail of arrows Storm of swords Rush of steel Clashing iron lords Doomed to die War is my domain Call of fire I will claim it all Deep in the heart of the Mott Wood No fortress of fastness abides Yet here in the war-striken Mott Wood Sorcery and darkness claim your life Sons of the Blacksword descended Ravens have taken to flight Necromancer's poisons and mantras Blinding the Cadre's sight Hear the fortress in the sky Taste of blood and sacrifice See the fires raising high Know that you are doomed to die The frigid tides of war rush over And even gods of man will die When all the world has burned over Then shall peace and loss reside

Bloody Annals & Brooding Skies March - Marching on March - Marching home To lands unknown Glittering fields of Stone Water sleeps Bids our return Silver Spike Brings us strife Journey on to Khatovar where destiny will sound its call Fight and live or fight for death, one and all In this land where shadows linger, dread-lords will hunt and hound Feel the heavy hand of doom from all around Blackened souls forged by strife United by the words abound Brothers lost and brothers found March a warpath through the night Howl your pain to the skies above Feel the anguish snuff out the dying sun Rest now forever in eternal slumber Drink deep the sorrow and march on We're marching home Walk the tallest mountains Plunge the darkest depths Fight the running battles Hold the failing walls Walked the path to the guardian stone crushed the shards of glassen rock under my toes Weathered boots on blooded feet plodding to a final repose, where at last I am free, leave behind blood and bone. Now eternity is in my mind Blowing winds caress my face and its howling lets me sing As a specter a breeze through great vast fields Over mountains, to the shores of unyielding seas Howl your pain to the skies above Feel the anguish snuff out the dying sun Rest now forever in eternal slumber Drink deep the sorrow and march on Marching on We're Marching home

Into the Stars From ancient lands of mine Into the cosmic sky Beyond the orbs Through stellar winds Blazing bright fires, Blue flames of light Impenetrable vastness , Cold voids of ice I have become one with the stars Immeasurable grandeur, flow of it all -We have war- Vast, endless, star-filled night From ancient lands of mine Into the cosmic sky Beyond the orbs Through stellar winds Blazing bright fires, Blue flames of light Impenetrable vastness , Cold voids of ice I am ascending into the stars Realm darkness and sovereign light -We have war- Vast, endless, star-filled night Blazing bright fires, Blue flames of light Impenetrable vastness , Cold voids of ice Blazing blue-bright pyres, Burning brilliant tides Imperceivable vastness, Cold voids of ice Maelstrom-swirl of gasses, Towering pillars high Cold-worlds of darkness, long devoid of life

Realm of the Tyrant Echelons of power Binding runes of pain Ancillary tributes Feeding his name To be the capstone of controlled existence Slaves to perceived gods whom they would supplant Black Winds, scorching sands Lashing barbs of fire Freezing night, vacuous sky Veins recast with ice
6.
Requiem for the Fallen Brothers fight together and fall Behold the blades of shadow and light Fighting the beasts on the land and in sky-keeps Wings of flight show how high the price Behold now their blood soaks this earth Soaks this earth Do you feel their pain? Can you see they're bleeding? The gods are dying The gods are dying Your visions falsely clouded by the blood on your eyes Your crown will crash and fall as befits this grave betrayal Blacken the skies Darken my eyes I am not a son of light Flaring out in despair In this turgid, sordid hell Betrayal permeates the air Smoke is rising to the sky Blood of gods soaks this ground And in their honor I raise a cairn I raise a cairn for the fallen heroes Oh! The weight! Oh! The great burden of grief A burning wrath subsumed by anguish I fall to knees and howl to the skies above
7.
Stellar Graveyard Beyond the stellar drifts Through gaseous clouds, discarded shrouds Above the galactic plane Cold night thy crown A giant clad for war Bright heart, consuming need to forge An iron death, a final breath In glory rest forever more

about

Ered Wethrin Salt Lake City, Utah

ERED WETHRIN is the 3rd band from Salt Lake City, Utah, that signed to Northern Silence, and occasionally it may remind the listener of CALADAN BROOD or SUMMONING.

While the lyrics also deal with epic fantasy themes (Horus Heresy, Black Company, Malazan Book of the Fallen, etc.), the style of the music tends more towards the Scandinavian Symphonic Black Metal of the 90s...
