Odcházení

smartmeister This album has everything i loved about Master's Hammer Ritual, i didn't think i'd ever get the chance to experience another album like this again. You nailed it ! Favorite track: Tisíce hvězd.

Love how it’s only instrumentals in the beginning of all the songs and then serves you with some lyrics afterwards . It’s unique in its own way definitely a fav band from now on Favorite track: Tisíce hvězd.

音黑 The highlight of this album for me is the drums. It's way the cymbals ring out on each hit, it just feels so good to listen to. And the guitars? They're all perfection.
I think this will be my album of the year 2022. Favorite track: Skrytá Mista.

Luke Don’t know much about this Czech band but this is a killer debut.

mefi100 I am looking 4ward to having the CD. Greetingz from Cyclo prosetor \m/.

Tisíce hvězd Tisíce hvězd na nočním nebi v dáli. Obrysy kmenů – – tam kdysi celé lesy stály. Hnijící kořeny, půda tvrdá jako kámen. Jen tkáně v rozkladu kupí se v hluboké jámě. Jsou chvíle smutku, a i radosti – té z nenadání. Jsou chvíle zmaru, a i naděje, bez strádání. To ticho konejší. ... Tisíci hroby krajina posetá je. Zářící měsíc je oděn v blankytném hávu. Jsou chvíle smutku, a i radosti – té z nenadání. Jsou chvíle zmaru, a i naděje, bez strádání. Tak chvíle pomíjí, je ticho v lesním háji. Snad hvězdy smilují se nad ležícími v tomhle kraji. Je ticho – – mezi stromy s půdou udusanou. – to jen hvězdy nikdy nevyhasnou. -------------------------------------------- EN: Thousands of Stars Thousands of stars on the distant nite heavens The contoures of stumps – – where once whole forests stoode Rotting roots soile hard as stone Only tissue in decaye pyleing deepe in the pit There’r moments of grieff and joy, but unawares There’r moments of ruin and hope, withoute destitution The silence soothing … Beset is the landescape by thousandes of graves The shining moon in azure vestements garbed There’r moments of grieff and joy, but unawares There’r moments of ruin and hope, withoute destitution And so the while passes, quiete in the woodlande grove Perchance the starres shall be mercifull o’er those who lie in this lande Tis’ silent – – amongst trees and harde–packed soile – only the stars ne’er shall dimme
3.	Smuteční průvod 07:52	lyrics	buy track
Na půdu zoranou se kapky deště snáší. Hřbitovům zarostlým, když půdu jejich smáčí. Podél cest polních jen náhrobek lhostejný. Loučení smutné je v obřadu posledním. Podél zdi hřbitovní siluety kráčí. S páteří zborcenou, rakev s sebou vláčí. Pach zrady trpký je, když ruce půdu rozryjí. V průvodu smutečním věnce rakev pokryjí. V průvodu smutečním. Průvod smuteční za zem, jež byla vlastí. Hřmot hromů do ticha nejistotu vnáší. Nezvaní hosté v tento soumrak mlhavý Když rozklad odchozích je okamžikem prchavým. Národy nehasnou, dokud je jazyk živý. Půda vodou prosáklá dědictvím je věčným. Jen rosa zaleskne se v úsvitu ranním. Zas lípy vztyčí se na zelených stráních. -------------------------------------------- EN: Upon ploughd soile fall dropps of raine. To leaf-grown graveyardes, their soile it dampens. Along field trails the indifferent headestone. Bidding farewelle comes laste in the ceremonie. Along the cemetary’s wall, wend silhouettes. Backebones heavy with the weighte of the coffin they bear Bitter is the smelle of treachery, when hands digg into lande. In the funereal procession wreathes cover the coffin. In the funereal procession The funereal procession for the lande that was a home The dinn of thundre brings misgiving to the silence. Uninvited guests on this brumous eve When the decaye of the departed is a moment fleeting. Nations shall not die out, if the tongue remains a’live The water-logged grounde is a legacy eternal. Only the dewe shines in the dawn of morn The lindens shall once more bolte up on verdant slopes

about

SIGNAL REX is proud to present the striking debut album of the Czech Republic's BRAN, Odcházení, on CD and vinyl LP format. The CD version shall be released on October 31st while the vinyl version will follow later.

One of the most exceptionally accomplished new hordes SIGNAL REX has come across in recent memory, Bohemia's BRAN are a power-trio of ancient black metal might and majesty. To be sure, they exhibit the splendorous, spellbinding riff-sorcery so endemic to their country's black metal idiom, but instead of hypnotizing monochromaticism, BRAN's epic constructions are always unfolding, always blossoming with a strict sense of narrative flow, surprising and engaging at every turn. Indeed, their Odcházení debut is a march across rarefied lands, for not only does it retain palatably clear production, rendering their ruminations in their most powerful state, but there's a pronounced grounding in actual METAL here - but thankfully, without any goofy party posturing or "metal brotherhood" bollocks.

No, this is the sound of swords sharpened and chainmail donned, grim resolve as the battle approaches; BRAN see the struggle ahead, and they've created the bloodily majestic / majestically bloody map for it.

Taste their Czech steel with Odcházení!

Rundagard is legitimately a great example of 90's worship done right. The mix of raw yet listenable recordings, violent vocals and an infusion of synths and preludes make this album a perfect display of why Black Metal is best to be left in the underground! Majestic performance! Gabriel Tamas

As the latest GEISTAZ'IKA album “Midnatsbøn ved Djævelens Port” simply overwhelmed me, I also put this one into my collection. The style is very similar, means 90s based, epic atmospheric black metal with occasional clear choirs and acoustic parts, but all in all more rough and underground. The final track "Tågedans" is already a very good link to the new album. H.L.
