lyrics
The sight of your painted words sickens me.
A self fulfilling misery brings content.
You spread defeat like an antidote to try,
The only thing you've earned is the right to crawl.
I can bring you sadness (if you like?)
I can show you pain (on faces)
I can leave you with the dead (for a while)
And they can ask you why you crawl.
Your effort drags behind with broken legs,
Crying poverty, pain, anxiety and loss.
The boy who cried wolf is laughing just for you,
As you try to walk and are simply left to crawl.
I feel the sickness rising every time we meet.
I see me battering your face with the truth.
I can cripple you with sugar coated lies,
And finally give you a reason to crawl.
A self fulfilling misery brings content.
You spread defeat like an antidote to try,
The only thing you've earned is the right to crawl.
I can bring you sadness (if you like?)
I can show you pain (on faces)
I can leave you with the dead (for a while)
And they can ask you why you crawl.
Your effort drags behind with broken legs,
Crying poverty, pain, anxiety and loss.
The boy who cried wolf is laughing just for you,
As you try to walk and are simply left to crawl.
I feel the sickness rising every time we meet.
I see me battering your face with the truth.
I can cripple you with sugar coated lies,
And finally give you a reason to crawl.

The Radiant Dark

Damn, how could i miss this one for so long? Amazing Death/Doom album. Haunting melodies, epic riffs, outstanding vocals and killer drums! The Radiant Dark is perfect in every way. A beautiful and emotional masterpiece!

one of the best death doom bands so far. great melodies with great atmospheres. mostly slow, heavy and doomy but sometimes there are these groovy double-bass drum moments wich are pretty fucking cool. if you like death doom and melodic atmospheric black metal, this is for you.

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellrippersupported by 12 fans who also own “The Right to Crawl”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

An interesting fusion of black metal and jazz, with inspiration from various other forms of metal. There is a lot to like here, and many pleasant surprises. However, it does not always seem to form a cohesive whole.
