Lyrics: Golden sunsets whisper Pastel painted skys Fading lights embrace Hills of endless pine Can you hear her calling Dusks eternal blanket falls Darkness rolling silent Over mountains high Hemlock bleeding warm sap Leaves dance on autumn sky Shadows move in softly Creeping darkness falls Ancient spirits whisper Spells of Moon and earth Seven sacred pines Soaring ever high A road to the stars Painted cross the sky Autumn wind comes softy Kisses my bare chest Ancestral strength consumes me I am reborn Skyward we rise Over moss encrusted hemlock To awaken the hearts of long forgotten gods Spirits of the forest are flowing through my body Bestowing great strength and the will to carry on The passage of time slows to a soft whisper Like wind in the pines while the creek flows softly by A blackened wolf spirit with feral eyes of fire Watches from the shores of the river of my mind Awakened by the vision of a thousand lives before me My spirit flies free on the hallowed winds of time And as the dream fades and my mortal form becomes me The wolf's gaze sets upon me and our spirits intertwine A celestial womb of ash Burns beyond her eyes of fire A Celestial womb of ash Behind the eyes of her spirit.

When recounting the horrendous genocide of Native people, this is the perfect genre of music. So well done. Didn't expect the flute, Sgah’gahsowáh is a genius.
This is revolutionary. We need more Native American black metal, it’s undeniably authentic to black metal’s core, and it represents and highly unrepresented people
@@UndaglibenglaubenglobenI'm assuming you were looking for some sort of black metal since your here in the comments. In any case, I recommend some blackgaze. Tis quite wonderful 😅
Black metal with its devotion to nature seems to be good choice to combine it with native American culture. I'm a philologist and I'd love to hear something in one of the American languages. This one is really great. Amazing video!
I was just thinking about that too, specifically how black metal bands love forests so much. Why does black metal and forests go together so well? You'd never see a black metal video that takes place in the desert. That's more of a doom metal setting.
As a Native American who lived in europe and a massive history and black metal buff this is precisely what the world needed and what we needed. My support always, friend!
The Native Black Metal scene is fucking gold, man. There's great BM all over the world, but I just keep hearing bangers from Native American artists. Brilliant.
I just discovered this fantastic band now. Nature, indigenous culture and black metal combined is perfect!!! I’m from Brazil and I’m a new fan of this project. Total support!!!
This is absolutely fucking amazing. He's wearing corpse paint. No. Fuck that. He's wearing WAR PAINT, as his ancestors and his people did. The Native American look aesthetic combined with the elements of Black Metal just *WORKS*. I wonder if we'll see him adopt more Native iconography into his outfits when he tours?
same I’m Navajo too, I’m actually going to see them this Saturday@El Rey theater in Albuquerque they’re playing with 200stab Wounds, Dark Funeral, & Cattle Decapitation
As someone who was born and raised, and still lives in the Adirondacks... I'm SO happy that this finally exists!!! I can't put into words how much I love this! 🤘🖤
Me too, this video looks like it was filmed in my backyard. Any idea where he's from? I've been looking for more info but haven't been able to find anything
Hell yea! I wasn't born here, but have lived here for over 10 years. I have fond memories of hiking Hadley Mountain and getting a stunning view of Lake Sacandaga! This area is absolutely beautiful. Can't wait for the snow to come so I can bust out the snow shoes! And yea fantastic blackmetal here!
@@Terralncognita it really is. I love black metal mixing beautiful sounds within the terror. flutes, pipes, synth etc etc, It all perfects the atmospheric touch.
The drumming on all these songs is mind blowing. Such heart and soul in these songs. So ready for the full length. May you become one of the biggest new metal artists. So deserving!
@@dusted1337 respectable, didn't know, just assumed it from the way the drums are mixed and mastered. Definitely using a Snare sample though or it's compressed to the max because every hit sounds like 127 velocity.
This album has been on regular rotation since it dropped. It's quickly becoming one of my favorite black metal albums. I can't wait for the next installment, I heard it was coming in 2023 but idk if that's accurate. Either way, I'm highly looking forward to it and doing my best to spread the word about this project.
I think that Black Metal is the most deeply spiritual of all the Metal subgenres and, somehow, that a native American finds his way to making Black Metal music is equally logical as cool.
As a Chicano from California I really appreciate when i see new Black Metal groups still keeping the scene alive. So Saludos to you guys for letting me hear this! 💀 🤘🦺👍
I only discovered Black Braid recently, but I have been enjoying every song available so far. Not to take away from Black Braid, all of the attention that he gets is well deserved, but it reminds me of a local Utah black metal band that my friends play in that is called Yaotl Mictlan. They play black metal with a twist of mesoamerican themes and use traditional folk instruments. I really appreciate bands like Yaotl Mictlan and Black Braid supplying amazing riffs, blast beats, and the implementation of historical tradition/relevance.
@@somekid7 Yeah man, Yaotl are homies of mine. I think they put out another album a while back. But yeah, my band Tomb Of Belial has yet to play with them. Unfortunately Black Braid isn't from Utah, but it would make a lot of sense given the amount different tribes in Utah.
@@frozenkingdomBM14 I have heard of Volahn before, I definitely like their music and themes. I'll check in Maquahuitl and Blue Hummingbird On The Left. Thank you for the recommendation.
He's been waiting quite a long time to release this album after the two songs came out, so it has a lot of expectations to live up to at this point. Seems like each release is quality though so won't be disappointed
I instantly fell in love with BlackBraid earlier this year. I'm so excited to hear another new track from this insanely talented individual! The breakdown at 3:18 is excellent and I consider this a Top-5 find for 2022. Can't wait for more!!!
Incredible stuff and really looking forward to the album release later this week. A lot of talk of this project in the Swedish scene right now, well deserved.
just received my CD today. absolutely speechless. a transcendent video of excellent musicianship and honoring nature, worthy of such a masterpiece track. he deserves all the success. i absolutely treasure this music.
Blackbraid's "The River of Time Flows Through Me" randomly popped up in my recommended section one day. I am SO glad I clicked the video. Been hooked ever since.
Blackbraid captures the true essence of Scandinavian Black Metal! Because It's unapologetically true to the spiritual past of its people. Blackbraid is awesome!
I utterly adore everything about this. The song is beautiful, the video is beautiful, he's beautiful... it's been a while since something captivated me like this has. Thank you. 🖤🤘
I remember thinking years ago how cool it would be to have more Native American metal that has lyrical content rooted in Indian lore and history. I'm from Ohio and grew up hearing cool stories in Boy Scouts about Shawnees and Delawares and their legends. So cool to see this and it sounds great.
Ever since the first listen of the other tracks, this gives me goosebumps every time. What a crazy perfect fit musically and thematically... I fucking love this so much.
Really hope I can see Blackbraid live in Arizona. I ain't Native American, but having grown up in Finland I feel a weird connection with the closeness to nature Blackbraid sings about.
Wow this song kicks ass! Awesome harsh lyrics while still clear enough to make out the words. Black metal as originated from norse culture have strong influences of paganism and resistance to religious dogma, I'm glad to see it being embraced by native americans. Hail from Sweden!
That flute coming in towards the end was so perfect. Nothing was missing from the music, it was great as it was, but that flute kicked it up a notch lol
Magnífico sonido, escenografía y contenido rítmico, acabo de descubrir esta banda y en definitiva podría ser mejor que muchas de las más reconocidas del Black Metal.
native American black metal is what my country needs.

Lyrics:
Golden sunsets whisper
Pastel painted skys
Fading lights embrace
Hills of endless pine
Can you hear her calling
Dusks eternal blanket falls
Darkness rolling silent
Over mountains high
Hemlock bleeding warm sap
Leaves dance on autumn sky
Shadows move in softly
Creeping darkness falls
Ancient spirits whisper
Spells of Moon and earth
Seven sacred pines
Soaring ever high
A road to the stars
Painted cross the sky
Autumn wind comes softy
Kisses my bare chest
Ancestral strength consumes me
I am reborn
Skyward we rise
Over moss encrusted hemlock
To awaken the hearts of long forgotten gods
Spirits of the forest are flowing through my body
Bestowing great strength and the will to carry on
The passage of time slows to a soft whisper
Like wind in the pines while the creek flows softly by
A blackened wolf spirit with feral eyes of fire
Watches from the shores of the river of my mind
Awakened by the vision of a thousand lives before me
My spirit flies free on the hallowed winds of time
And as the dream fades and my mortal form becomes me
The wolf's gaze sets upon me and our spirits intertwine
A celestial womb of ash
Burns beyond her eyes of fire
A Celestial womb of ash
Behind the eyes of her spirit.
