A savage horde ov hatred
Stirs beneath the world
All stood in array
Under banner ov sword and flame
Subjugate the ruling God
Eradicate the path once trod
Let Heaven ring with echoes ov our dark Lord’s name
Satan walks the ashen ground
Satan holds the sacred crown
Cloaked in hate, wreathed in woe
Satan's wretched armies grow
Satan works against the grain
Satan births infernal pain
Venomous, crimson-clawed
Satan will abolish God
Arcadia before us
On winds ov fury, ride
The golden walls ov Heaven, breached
Crumbling down
Crumbling down
Torn by our hate
Storming the gates
Shade warriors pour from fissures ov gold
I am Legion, for we are many
Occupy the realm ov God
March through His halls
Drown Him in shadow
Bury Him in fire
Let Heaven ring with echoes ov our dark Lord’s name
Satan walks the ashen ground
Satan holds the sacred crown
Cloaked in hate, wreathed in woe
Satan's wretched armies grow
Satan works against the grain
Satan births infernal pain
Venomous, crimson-clawed
Satan will abolish God

NWW blend nostalgia for the old ways of BM with an uncompromising excitement and energy. Melodic and gothic tones (reminiscent for example, of CradleOfFilth) are struck in this record. hallowedhalls

A beautiful journey from start to finish, with perfectly placed moments of gentility amidst the rhythmic intrigue and blast beats of their guest drummer. jsteadmanfan

What beautiful piece of black metal. Hypnotic and atmospheric. An intense musical experience with some folk/doom influences.
It feels like walking through a finnish landscape on a cold winter night.
