lyrics

"I am a servant of a secret fire"

Rising into a blackened sky
An Elven sword held aloft
'O Elbereth' I hear their cry
Glamdring cleaving orken flesh

The battle is high, give your light unto us

Orcrist foe of the dark
Smote those of evil wrath
Casting spells, crafting nature's path,
Calling unto thy risen moon

O Elbereth queen of souls
Elven runes hold your power
O Elbereth light in dark
Grant me enlightened visions
O Elbereth

[Inspired by "Lord of the Rings" by JRR Tolkien]

[J. Fogarty 19/3/96]

Listening to this on shrooms was haunting, which made it into a serious trip! Which was a mistake I was not prepared for. I do have something to say about it though on why I think it such. I have personally experienced several tipi ceremonies. One would stay up through the night, consuming peyote, doing in some sense a molting process and does so by connecting you to the spirit world. This album does this, but different - I say it transcends that experience, and does it well... On shrooms. zaphexa

Blackbraid II

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ

I’m still more into “Sørbyen” than this one, but both albums have their merits and quirks. Alice M.

Zău
by Negura Bunget

supported by 7 fans who also own “O Elbereth”

NEGURA BUNGET have always been a unique and fascinating band. Epic Romanian folk black metal, shrouded in a dense atmosphere and full of dynamic, organic energy. Although I see "Om" as their unreached masterpiece and neither NEUGURA BUNGET nor Hupogrammos' Dordeduh created such incredible magic again, "Zău" is a worthy final chapet which won't disappoint any fan. Rest in peace! H.L.
