lyrics
On frenzied winds they came, their dogged steps followed in shadow.
Grim revenants fueled by blood and tales of woe and injustice
The earth itself did tremble, for those who claimed that mantle
were hollowed pursuers and dead to it, stark hands that claw after the unforgiven.
With bare untempered rage they spoke for the voiceless
bitter words of fury and spite, the coldest actions of cruelty.
Terrible reprisal that cannot be blunted, a past that must be answered,
of pain carried so deep within that drives the blade unturned.
Swallowed curses fed their husks, their lives forsaken and given over to grief.
Horrid instruments of howling loss who bear judgement for those named in atrocity.
Their ranks were made from those who claimed debts of life, repaid in blood of guilt.
They knew not peace yet were marked by deed in resolution, bereft of purpose.
Cry out what you cannot bear in sadness to the winds.
Your ache, the wrongs so suffered, let fall your tears
it is said, and they shall hear, for they are drawn to such plight.
Shadows, devoid of all things, save vast empathy.
They come to hear the wailing, to feel it once again.
They listen and feel each loss as their own, and speak each name.
Weep and they shall weep with you, mourn and they will mourn with you.
Grieve and they will grieve with you, lament and they shall be moved
in your stead with purpose again, a void once empty now full with agony,
of sorrows borne and vengeance carried, for those sent below one more must follow.

The second half of the closing piece, Howling' resonates the experience of a mountain hike during a sunny autumn day, the shrieking sounds reverberating against limestone pillars that is what i imagine. Marty

Great album, fantastic songs and production. Question, the spoken word at the end of Moth Eaten Soul, is it in swedish and is it a sample? Jonas Danielsson
More bleak, enveloping atmospheric black metal from the masters at the Vendetta label, “aevum” is both harrowing & strangely beautiful. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 30, 2019
The harrowing black metal from this Olympia, WA artist demolishes like a typhoon—a whirling, threatening cloud of sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 6, 2023

Dans The Density Parameter, Mesarthim reprend tous les ingrédients qui font leur marque de fabrique : des pistes assez longues au rythme énergique (très palpable sur "Recombination" par exemple) et jouant sur des structures cycliques, un chant qui erre parmi les étoiles... Les ambiances sont prolifiques mais elles changent la donne : gracieuses, certes, mais surtout plus mélancoliques qu'autrefois. The Density Parameter est un peu la dernière bouffée d'oxygène que donne la combinaison spatiale. Jordan Vauvert
