lyrics
A Shadow In The Dormitory
Under amber skies
I repent my faults
Midst them golden fields
In the lap of Father Gibault
For I don't deserve God's love
At night's darkening
'Neath the sheets I crawl
Laying harkening
For his heavy steps
Sounding across the hall
Sleeping, sweating, choking, dreaming
Turning, cramping, waking, screaming,
Sacred saviour, holy mother
Spare me, save me, from that shadow on the wall
And I ask of thee
Teach me humble life
Save my rotten soul
Fustigate all vice
Out of my foul core
And Charlie has already left
To be a shade on his own
And Will already wrote
With lipstick on the walls
Burning, beating, pain infliction
Whipping, striking, torment's diction
Sacred saviour, holy mother
There's no running from that shadow on the wall

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74

What an album! The only reason the album didn't elevate them straight to stardom is not enough people heard it. Modern classic - from start to finish. c1ch
A triumphant-but-bittersweet send-off from the Australian outfit, distilling a decade of doom-metal mayhem into five potent parting shots. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 26, 2023
