Metal Monday LXXXII - Void Vacuity

9/18/2017

On this, our final round of Valiant, I decided to include the link to the entire album on YouTube, via the Ofiicial Valiant source. Though this sojourn of sound has bewildered and enchanted us, it does not mean that it is the end. Nigh! This is the point where we look to Highbourne, seek out the other creations wrought by this dark gods hands. Between that journey, I will bring WITTR and a few other choice offers. So, frequent this dark realm often, bask in the sounds of madness, feast your eyes on the stolen words from celestial nightmares, and let a little bit of wild into your life.

In this world of shadow,
Conquered by a scourge of evil,
In this void of emptiness,
Destroyed by power,
In this empire of shadows,
Realms will breathe no longer,
In darkness entranced in night,
Never to see a beginning of light,
In this new world of shadow.

For ages ago, a scourge of evil,
Arrived to battle, as conquerors,
Ages of the spellbind, to enslave - legions of doom!

From a new age, she comes,
From a new age, she comes...

A slumber within the depths,
An ancient miracle of light,
After the darkness settles in,
Night will become day,
With the spell fading away,
Long lost to the glorious light.

For ages ago, a scourge of evil,
Arrived to battle, as conquerors,
Ages of the spellbind, to enslave - legions of doom!

THE MAD BARRON

QUOTES I ADMIRE
"A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain." - from the Wilderness Act, 1964

"I owe my solitude to other people." - ALAN WATTS

“I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition;
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;
Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;
Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;
Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.”
― Walt Whitman

"In the ancient world, people placed heavy stones on the graves of the dead so their souls would not wander and inflict the living. I always thought this was simply the practice of superstitious and primitive people. But I was about to learn that the dead can hover on the edge of our vision with the density and luminosity of mist, and their claim on the earth can be as legitimate and tenacious as our own."

- Dave Robicheaux (In The Electric Mist With Confederate Dead)
