Ashade beneath the weltering
Solar burnout, watching
The crepitant remains
Lie scattered and broken
Pariah of civilization observed
As jealous keepers of the green tongue perished
Behold his weathered visage
The vagrant
Transcending the ravages of time
And dual existence
Alight on my shoulder
Faithful companion
As the moon arises we depart
Far beyond the minarets
And steeples of the vanished
We fold into the space between the planets
Behold his stupid countenance
The vagrant
Standing at the precipice
Clothed in the skin of the dragon
A vicious slab of Teutonic tinged blackened thrash metal that celebrates all things loud, evil, and alcoholic in excess. Unholy Sepulchre is the ultimate soundtrack to your next heavy metal party! Posers beware! Jason French
The band's debut is full of whiskey-burned growls and maniacal high shrieks, not surprising for a group of Detroit metal vets. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 22, 2016
Black Arts & Alchemy is the definition of a PERFECT EP! Every single song stands for it's own and could be single releases, if they wanted to be. It's a ripper (pun intended) and shows how absolutely brilliant of a musician and composer James McBain has become. A flawless blend of speed, blackened themes and catchy riffs/choruses. This will remain in my Top 3 favorite EPs of all time and it will be near impossible to dethrone it. poutineslayer
