lyrics

One of the thousands of spectral worlds
Lightless Abyss, Empire of Shadows
Where the Spirits eternally dance
Shadowlands
The place where my ancient Castle was founded
Proud and dark, macabre and silent
Domain of Eternal Night and Winter
No kind thing
Could live here
The sky of Shadowlands is eternally black
The Stars and the Moon... but there is no Sun
Warmth and Life have never visited
This Realm of Chaos, Darkness and Evil
Spirits of Time don't enter into
The Gates of my Unholy Empire
The Time here is frozen, all the things
Are Lifeless, Undead, Immortal
Behold the rising of silver Moon
From the raging clouds, from the poisonous Fog
Its light awakes all those who died
All those who exits in my Domain
My Castle proudly stands on the Mountain
Which sides always are hidden by the Mist
My soul rests there
On the blackshining Throne
Enjoying the suffer of dead sheepmen
Pale rays of spectral Fullmoon
Lighten the Frozen Wastes of Shadowlands
Dark Forests are covered with Snow and Ice
Cold Proud Mountains in the distance...
Ancient Castle of my Shadowed soul
Sinuous way on the iced hillside
The trail of Lonely Spectral Wolf
The pits
Where souls of mortals burn in Coldflame...
My Shadowrealm...

Exercises in futility
by Mgła

supported by 6 fans who also own “Shadowlands”

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf

Listening to this on shrooms was haunting, which made it into a serious trip! Which was a mistake I was not prepared for. I do have something to say about it though on why I think it such. I have personally experienced several tipi ceremonies. One would stay up through the night, consuming peyote, doing in some sense a molting process and does so by connecting you to the spirit world. This album does this, but different - I say it transcends that experience, and does it well... On shrooms. zaphexa

Every release I listen to is going to be compared to the standard that this album sets. This is 9 years of work compressed into 61 minutes of absolute glory and a proof of Wann's deep love for the genre. Holy shit, what an album. Truly, what an album. Ultimhate
