°Everything seems false
I feel like we are locked in a box
And everything we experience is just a show
With actors and spectators
Programs, androids, anthropomorphic automatons
°Everything seems poorly constructed to me
There is something abnormal
It is an illusion with very real suffering
°I imagine a box with multiple dimensions
A complex geometric shape
A tesseract
°I am really out of sync with this world
I do not like it at all
I feel like I am from somewhere else
That here is a war
I feel captive of a vast industry
With a mysterious purpose
All of this is beyond me
°Awareness
Illumination
My soul has been incarnated into a character
Birth
Growth
Love
Pain
Learning
Immersion in a cube named "Earth"
°If that is the idea, it is a severe punishment
One must have committed horrible acts to deserve this
Imprisoned souls, steeped in violence
What is my own involvement in all of this ?
°A cube of matter, limiting
°Here, we all have to exploit others to survive
°Trapped
Icarus tries to break the cube
Like a genius seeking escape
But if it is inviolable, there must be a reason
Permission is probably needed to exit the cube
°I must seek to understand
Create my own model
Everything seems slowed down in this physical reality
Perhaps to have the necessary time to understand certain things
So would it be a school, a correctional center ?
°It might be where our feeling of loneliness stems from
Our place of residence may not be here
Perhaps the reason behind our miniatures
To combat loneliness
°"The children"
We must take care of them
Flesh avatars welcome souls
For living unique, strange experiences
°The experience of evil must be a central thing
We are unconsciously bound to the system
A challenging reality
With particles like interlacing pixels
A complex software built on rigid paradigms
°Once adapted, we become the guardians of the cube
Out of fear of resisting evil
°We preserve the reality imposed upon us
Like obedient servants
°Negentropic imagination could reveal answers
°There is a mindset we are not allowed to have
That disrupts the system
There is significant censorship
°But what is this chimera ?
Are we captives in an electronic corporeal prison that holds our extraterrestrial essence ?
°I have the feeling that the soul gets used to the illusion
And gradually forgets her identity
Where she comes from and what she truly is
°The experience of physical life on Earth is a challenging and unpleasant ordeal
°I feel like her slave, not her child
Slave of the Earth, deliverance
Slave of the cube, deliverance
°Fallen souls descended into madness, drawn by the experience of evil
°Slave to time, liberation
Slave to duality, liberation
°By experiencing satisfaction by exploiting others
Disconnected from the Truth
But perhaps we are here to gather new data
Like the ministers of Light
°Limited dualistic reality separated from the rest of creation
°It is the experience of imperfection
°Violent and dangerous souls that have been imprisoned
But why ?
Forced to transform carbon into diamond
°Begin a purification process, in order to ascend
Starting from the very bottom, like a black crow
°From the hypercube allowing malicious programmers to hack souls
°At the open cube
The cross releasing souls that no longer want to kill and partake in evil
Terminate the contract
°Who would then be liberated from the world and from the influence of Kronos

Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan

Love the dark soundscapes and myriad musical influences. Genre-bending and emotionally charged, this is one of my favourite albums. Laure's vocals are otherworldly 🖤 skog heksa
