Warangelic An amazing EP with a dark edge to it. Both melodic and foreboding, this EP is in constant spin in my collection. Can't waste for better things from this band. Favorite track: A Smothering Of Moths.

Tim McLelland Wow! What a surprise! Probably bought this for the King Diamond reference, but it sounds NOTHING like The King. Nordstrom being on it is amazing! Excellent, and a somewhat unique take on Metal. Sometimes it sounds like Black Metal, sometimes the instrumentation sounds like Traditional Metal. Very glad I found this!
Favorite track: In Darkness, In Tongues.
Arrogant Bastard

Arrogant Bastard A very interesting and promising EP. Built on a foundation of Melodeath the thrashy and blackened flourishes give Vaelmyst a flare to stand out.
While it could do with refinement, Earthly Wounds has an imposing debut sound leaving me eager for their first LP. Favorite track: A Smothering Of Moths.

SkunkBeatManiac A great Blackened Thrash/Speed Metal EP with catchy Classic Metal inspired riffs. There are also Viking influences especially on 1, 2 and 5. Apparently some of members used to play in a Viking metal band. Favorite track: Watchers.

Hollywood Metal

Hollywood Metal "Vaelmyst is more violent and melancholic than most bands and its music seems to match the level of brutality. While the vocals are harsh, the clarity in the music is something that is pleasing for Earthly Wounds as well as melodic death as a whole. - HollywoodMetal.com" Favorite track: A Smothering Of Moths.

Prologue 02:35
"This soil holds secrets, beyond our time. Numinous roots unseen by the human eye. This flesh, much like your glass of sand. I don't soon expect a cod like you, to understand."
2.
"Befallen, this cosmic offering She was a vessel for the stars From the steps of his holy house Into the wayward hands of man Far from a blessing The thundering silence summoned on this starless night Mutes all but the one with purest sight A cold that dwells beyond what you call the dark It reaches out (forever) Caught in the rapture of voracious desire They dance, interwoven in perverse fire Surrendering so swiftly to the horns He who reaps the seed of hatred unborn *Solo by Tom Warner* The lies that he once feared, devoured him Endless libation, revel in sin Devoured him, Revel in sin! The thundering silence summoned on this starless night Mutes all but the one with purest sight A cold that dwells beyond what you call the dark It reaches out (forever) *Solo by Ronny Lee Marks* Our harmony with the unknown, alluring desolation Is it the promise of cold, or the warmth of the lie A fate beyond oblivion, we bask in our delirium Inherited senslessness Whispers from below Ominous grasp from above Rain of ash, promises unkept Flame within - ne'er bewept Like pearls before swine The disgusting and divine Let our fire be their guide Beauty and wroth, A smothering of moths Our battle has just begun"

Watchers 05:34
"A cloud of laughter overcame the trees with harlot in hand Just the thought of their frolic, how it drove me mad How boastful they walk How mindless they breathe This veil adore eternally" "Speaking in riddles now are we we have not the time this harlot you speak of, i swear has vowed to be mine" How boastful they talk they deceive Blinded by reflection, they refuse to see "We are the eyes of these parts, these woods are - a symbol of peace this misfortune you speak of, a misfortune indeed Dare bring your mortal tangle to his feet, dear fleshling, i think not" "Watchers of the witching hour, what wonders we have seen the man, the heart, the soul, your web how quickly it unweaves" Stumble forth, the abyss thirsts for much more of your tears than this Rampant disgust in this realm it seems, often bleeds into dreams *Solo by Tom Warner* "Watchers of the witching hour, what wonders we have seen the man, the heart, the soul, your web how quickly it unweaves" "Will you take my hand? Will you follow me? Further into the dusk I promise you, your will is stronger than mine In this fear, a strength you will find" *Solo by Ronny Lee Marks* "Steadfast delusioned one There is much to be known This fate, quite literally written in stone The truth you seek is of rapturous kind Taking it's toll, the toll - the mind" "This is suffocating, i breathe for every word she has said if I'm to suffer this silence oh I'm better off, better off dead" Stumble forth, the abyss thirsts for much more of your tears than this Rampant disgust in this realm it seems, often bleeds into dreams.

"Adrift, amiss, my cerulean bliss Visions of oceans once crossed Now lost, in woeful eclipse Sanity's unmournful kiss" At night when im drowning for sleep At the mercy of the perilous sea I watch you drift away, beyond my reach I heard a voice from beyond Calling me the brightest pearl I waited for you I stood at the edge of the world "Oh please forgive my will to burn If i fail to cleanse it now, it will return" "In darkness and tongues She will speak for eons If to these words you succumb, all will be undone" *Solo by Ronny Lee Marks This sudden feverish enlightment, Will be repelled Disheveled now this boastful opulence, To be dispelled *Solo by Tom Warner* Adrift, amiss, my cerulean bliss Visions of oceans once crossed Now lost, in woeful eclipse Sanity's unmournful kiss At night when im drowning for sleep At the mercy of the perilous sea I watch you drift away, beyond my reach I felt the grasp from beyond Of dreadful dimensions obscure This house cradles the madness of sickness uncured "Oh please remember, All hearts turn to dust And where the wind takes then, matters not to us" Into the den, where the sheep tend to herd themselves What lies past it's wretched doors Faces laden with ancient temptation A siren - ashore

Dear Esther 04:11
Beyond the mist, across the lake, hidden inside Waters claimed a smile that no dark could hide "Dear Esther, we've come to speak to you tonight Please lend us your voice, if you'd be so kind The cries that haunt these trees, they're not of my kin What happened that day near the river bed? Their echoes growing louder, I wish it wasn't so Was this a miracle, or a winter burial? Oh why do these thoughts perplex me? Such tragic words fall upon my ears, they beg for mercy As if being torn from the womb of a whore" Beyond the mist across the lake, hidden inside This chamber of smothering light "Upon this hollowed ground, countless fools have grieved This place gives me the creeps, like you wouldn't believe Upon this hollowed ground, countless fools have grieved Blood is in the oak, tears soak the leaves" "The king of sorrow, I've come for his crown His petty sufferings, unpronounced Twas a love of seasons This taste of treason sorely sought By the mouth of a heathen with serpent-like tongue" Threads chaotically aligned Not unlike the noose Deplorable minuet A darker silhouette *Solo courtesy of Fredrik Norrman* Dear Esther can you hear them wallowing tonight? Oh how their ears heed in guiltless delight
