Skarprättaren
Allt sedan den dagen då han föll för sitt kall
går allting taktfast mot obeveklig död och förfall.
Som en förseglad och förhemligad själ
skrider han sömngångarlikt in i rollen som dödens träl.
Slav under rådlöshetens jämmer
- blomstrande till liemannens skörd.
Straffet som ingen man bestämmer
- kedjad till trots med sin efterbörd.
Ständigt förföljd av samma hopplösa ledmotiv
drömmer han ljuvt om tusen slocknande mänskoliv.
Flyktiga år av förtvivlan förmörkade hans fromma jag
och ändå till det bittra slutet skydde han förtappelsens dag.
Slav under rådlöshetens jämmer
- blomstrande till liemannens skörd.
Straffet som ingen man bestämmer
- kedjad till trots med sin efterbörd.

GRIFT Västra Götaland County, Sweden
Grift’s ambition is to evoke the mood some people are in great need of; the mood you can’t express through other mediums than music, images, and in some cases even through words. This kind of escapism is about breaking the chains of everyday given norms, and for a short moment becoming a stranger lost in a state of uncertain homelessness. ... more

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross!

Ofte jeg drømmer mig død

The cover painting (Udslidt by H A Brendekilde, if anyone is interested) and the music is in perfect alignment. So much sorrow, so much despair... Right from the start I can feel my soul wither away with each riff. Still, towards the end of the record I can catch little glimpses of hope in the melodies. A beautiful journey in the bleak reality of existence.
