F I V E B L A D E S
Find the door in your mind
Leave the outer world behind
Eternal darkness you`ll find
Sire
In fire
Denier
Dreams of death are coming in
Take me where I`ve never been
Nightmares getting fairly dim
I`ve crossed the portal in my stash
Succumbed to my internal crash
The dagger`s tasting mortal flesh
Hark!
the dark
mark
The end is nigh
calling, you shall die
Heaven was in our father as he fell from up high
The power of the pentagram calls him from the sky
I lead the servants with my lash
I`ve crossed the portal in my stash
As swine take action in the mire
and demons smoke the dead in fire
The blood of men is doomed forever
The scent of life is burned and never
Shall the filth of mortal ties
affect the pulse of Satan`s rise
I speak my prayers in reverse
Darkness growing ancient birth
His presence coming down on earth
Predict
the verdict
of hell
The end
has come
warning
all light is gone
Five blades carve the pentagram in blood

Promotext:
Hark and behold, all ye supporters of the darkest of Metal, the time has finally come.
4 years after the sheer onslaught which was "Sumerian Promises", Sijjin return with their 2nd opus entitled "Helljjin Combat".
The German/Basque trio has delved into depths absolute, focusing their lens on the most antediluvian variety of Death Metal while bringing up a derivative of evil Thrash with utmost evil intent. The album conjures its own life of satanic imagery, diabolical debauchery and biblical fatalism. Sijjin follow the firm path they once took but permanently turn to the south of heaven.
Recorded live at BlackStorm Studios in Karrantza, Basque Country, the new songs brim over with satanic energy, countless tempo changes, vile twists and turns, a demanding instrumental performance and riffs that drag you directly to the lowest point in hell. On top of that, blessed with abysmal strenght as it seems, Gericke's vocals never sounded as raspy and malevolent as on "Helljjin Combat", or to put it simple, dirty as fuck.
Adorned with an authentic and completely dry 80s analog sounding production, the record takes aim like fallen angels, storming the vaults in high heaven.
In stark contrast to the tracks on "Sumerian Promises", Sijjin's newer direction focuses on more extensive song structures as practiced by the godfathers of mid 80s Metal insanity, bringing such infamous names as Infernäl Mäjesty, Nasty Savage, Possessed, very early Slayer or Megadeth to mind.
In conclusion while seeking combat in hell, the trio of Sijjin has once more ultimately testified to be the trident in the left hand of the devil.
So mote it be! …...more
