A sign, my fate is sealed, as crows lands nearby
I scream and reach but they wont leave no matter how I try
The doctor´s coming closer as the crows are getting violent
Screams and cries when he arrives, but in my mind it´s silent
He´s writhing in pain with boils in his face
But pain turns to fear as he feels a dead gaze
He´s followed by hundreds of crows
The Plague Doctor already knows
He claims he does the work of God, but something isn´t right
The sickness seem to follow him, he´s only here at night
Screams are hidden in the storm, and crows are all you hear
All he leaves are bodies with their faces expressing fear
He takes the mask of to reveal his face
He leans himself down to whisper in my ear
I´m here to save your soul, confess to me your fear
Whereever he walks he is followed by the plague
The fever is geting higher, his face is only vague
The crows are now swarming as if they can foretell
Suddenly I meet his gaze as he drags me of to hell
He takes the mask of to reveal his face
He´ll rip your soul out if you meet his gaze
He leans himself down to whisper in my ear
I´m here to save your soul, confess to me your fear

Since I met Grift, with his album Arvet, it immediately became part of my necessary music list in my life. For me it has everything: melancholy, anger, strength, darkness and beauty. Anna Countess

A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue. Matt Richardson

A quelques jours d'intervalle par rapport à The Great Filter sort TYPE III, un deuxième E.P. qui est calqué sur exactement le même moule : il s'agit d'une piste unique qui atteint presque la vingtaine de minutes et dans lequel le black metal atmosphérique de Mesarthim prend une dimension théâtrale et épique. Malgré tout, il ne s'agit pas d'un simple clone : TYPE III est plus lent et oxygéné et laisse la parole aux synthés, avec violons et pianos mis en avant. Un très bel alter ego magique !

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert
