BLESSED BE: The guitar, the bass, and the percussion

[soa]

This is not metal, this is hate, disappointment, terror, fear, and anger that's been brewing for year's and it finally came out to show it's true face. This music is what I feel inside every single day when I see the facade people on social media portray

[mrhairy]

"Blessed be the stonecutters, it took a quarry to bury their dreams."

That line hits me in the hardest way.

[rcadams]

This dudes cymbal work is out of this world

[lashashubladze]

In case of existence, listen to this album

[tomquareme]

The guy on the left has Abbath's face on his upper-arm.

[JonSudano]

Blessed bèi the förgêrs ov IRØN
And the SPĮKEŠE and the BÆRBWÔRE

[j.t.]

Blessed be the option to loop this song on youtube - and the speakers and the subwoofer

[rests]

- Dad, why is my sister named Rose?
- Because your mother loves roses.
- Thanks dad.
- You're welcome, Exercises In Futility V.

Blessed be a xylophone player who became one of the greatest black metal drummers ever. And his cymbals, which teach us to find beautiful patterns in the maelstrom

[Rkitt]

When he says " Blessed be the stone cutters, it took a quarry to bury their dreams" felt that. Best part of the song.

[SpikeTFA]

Mgla aren't angry.. they're just disappointed

[BalanceOvOpposites]

Anyone who loves this song is a brother of mine.

[treefell]

Not a black metal fan, however I stumbled across this band and have to say this song absolutely froze me to the spot. The chilling and despair of the melody and lyrics are jaw dropping.
Pure nihilism, entwined with hate, vitriol and aggression. Without using to much hyperbole, but this song seemed to let something dark and foreboding slither in the dark parts of my psyche, I didn’t even realise was there.

Horrifying yet exhilarating.

[keineangabe]

This lyrical style, which fousses on despair, negative emotions and evils that are harder to comprehend and more intrinsic in nature is very refreshing, compared to the pure satanic themes that are much to common in the black metal scene.


Of course, satanic themes are not bad per se, and are also fitting for black metal, but to be honest, they are overused, and also often done in a lazy, uncreative way, which relies just on repeating the same keywords and cliches over and over.

[Ikkiaku]

This songs perfectly encapsulates human existence. Most important BM Band in the 21st century

[sovex]

The level of the fucking lyrics on this record is beyond any transcendence... I've listened to a thousand metal bands and nothing pierces my soul like this - it's a shame only a few people get to truly understand this. Such an underrated band.

[packanamuchy]

Błogosławieni niechaj będą krawcy,
Maski są docinane, by pasowały

Błogosławieni niechaj będą stolarze
Krzyże i szubienice

Błogosławieni niechaj będą kowale żelaza
oraz kolce i drut kolczasty

Błogosławieni niechaj będą kamieniarze
Co drążą w skale by pogrzebać marzenia

Błogosławione niechaj będą nędza, brud, niezgoda i groza
Błogosławione niechaj będą kłamstwa, poczucie winy, strach, biada i zdrada
Albowiem one nie potrzebują przyczyny spoza
Albowiem one wychodzą z wewnątrz

I oto jest
Wyrosła ze środka
Niezwyciężona twierdza
Przystrojona w śmierć

Strój stworzony ze lśniącej zbroi
Zastąpił skórę
A wykaligrafowane grzechy
Stanowią herb

Wydrążony

[leocrow]

I believe at least 300k of the views on this one are mine lol
Damn fine work MGLA

[hailmammonmoments]

When someone who does not speak english as their first language makes english lyrics with more eloquence than most American bands can manage. 😳
