As one rope loosens, another then tightens Far too long we've been strangled and tied This sick circle of shame must now finally break So that honour may again walk by our side Roamers of the path of many paths Now the hour has come for us to act With inhuman hatred and intensity To ram down the monoliths of fallacy At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for The ethics and laws that we deeply abhor Have left mere rust and rot in their wake So each such child of the holiest of lies Together with their fathers shall be slain The storm of rebellion will never calm down In the raging hearts of the truly devout So hold not a moment more thy fury back For swords are made to cut and daggers to stab At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for Enthralling is the scent of burning shrines And the sound of crumbling hierarchies As after this disgraceful time The true nature in us can once again breathe May lips wet with blood to the world now proclaim: At last the Beast if free and, verily, so shall remain! In the chanting winds of this glorious black night We hold the scalps of the crushed rulers high Without swaying a hammer or piling any stones Where once their towers stood we raise our own At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for
extremely beautiful song. i see this as a flicker of hope as finnish music goes worse and worse, but black metal still lives, love it! this makes me proud of being a finn.
@Cbuster666 there are certain religions that are ok like when kids get raped they are getting raped by most likely catholic priests, i hate catholisism because it gives religion a bad reputation but if you get into a really laid back church then it is perfectly fine, i went to some youth group and they were completely chill, the laid back churches are just there to help people and guide them through tough times in life
@cofarmer1982 Agreed about what you said about christ, and about hating the world. But remember, it's not christianity the one to blame. it's on ourselves. human kind is the true poison, not some ideologies created by us. They just sound even worse than ourselves.
@Djentard Americans feel anti-xtian sentiments on a deeper level than another religion the majority of their country doesn't belong to or one the individual was never apart of. If I were brought up Muslim in a Muslim-majority country I'm sure I would hate that religion just as much. But I'm in America and that's not the case. I don't know how to make it any more clear.
@Djentard Again, it's it's the one that's most prominent. It's inevitable backlash. Your estimation of 500 years is too long; the Salem Witch Trials were ~300 years ago, for instance. And I still can't buy liquor on a Sunday in Texas, that's just one symptom of how seeped our society is in xtianity. Islam has its place too of course, but it's easier to focus on the majority, especially when they most likely have xtian background themselves and resent that. So. You asked why, that would be why.
@Giapperiable So you just take the -theism out of it. Well, to me, religious symbolism is just as stupid, tbh. It's like the LaVeyan thing; be alpha, but be alpha with Satan in mind and hearth. What does Satan have to do with being a dominant creature? Well, i haven't actually read the LaVeyan bible or anything (a bit, but didnt think i'd need that info anyways so i didnt care), so please correct me if i'm wrong instead of flaming me.
@liquidpig Well playing metal in middle eastern muslim countries can lead to jail/fines or even death. I'd say that is a bit more extreme then no liqour on Sunday. I do see what you are getting at tho.
@xxXMisanthropyXxx Using a xD-smiley is totally smart and cool. To me, believing in the horn headed fellow as a creature is as stupid as believing in Jesus. Satan is something that is in all of us, you just have to realize and find it.
@Djentard Well, I assume it's because they're surrounded by xtians, and it's the majority of the religion where they live. When you hate religion, you're going to lash out at the most prominent one. You mention Islam; and while it's true that recently they've been much more violent than other religions, they still have a ways to go before catching up with xtian atrocities.
@timarmstrong666 Yeah lmao if religious people did a little bit of reasearch, they already have a more believeable theory on how the world was created then any religion out there...
No, LaVeyan Satanism is not the thing christians scare kids with, i know the ideology, but is a cult with "dark imagery" really needed for such a thing as "strength of the individual"? How strong are you really if you draw it from a cult?
Please up this song in Spotify!!!!.
I've been listening to black metal since I was 13 years old. I'm 22 now. How come I haven't heard of this amazing band yet??
Damn I’m 27 and I remember finding this song years back. I knew this before dark funeral and other 3rd wave black metal
Alghazanth is too underrated band.
Awesome! I don't know why this band is underground. It's incredible! \m/
My favorite song at the moment. Moves like a turbo moose in the heathland :D
Wonderful image!
People cannot overestimate what a monumental turning point this album made for melodic black metal. It must go down as one of the top five in history.
one of the most awesome bm songs ever.
As one rope loosens, another then tightens
Far too long we've been strangled and tied
This sick circle of shame must now finally break
So that honour may again walk by our side
Roamers of the path of many paths
Now the hour has come for us to act
With inhuman hatred and intensity
To ram down the monoliths of fallacy
At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins
The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin
We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war
The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for
The ethics and laws that we deeply abhor
Have left mere rust and rot in their wake
So each such child of the holiest of lies
Together with their fathers shall be slain
The storm of rebellion will never calm down
In the raging hearts of the truly devout
So hold not a moment more thy fury back
For swords are made to cut and daggers to stab
At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins
The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin
We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war
The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for
Enthralling is the scent of burning shrines
And the sound of crumbling hierarchies
As after this disgraceful time
The true nature in us can once again breathe
May lips wet with blood to the world now proclaim:
At last the Beast if free and, verily, so shall remain!
In the chanting winds of this glorious black night
We hold the scalps of the crushed rulers high
Without swaying a hammer or piling any stones
Where once their towers stood we raise our own
At the mass grave of religions man's triumphant age begins
The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin
We'll stand among the victors through this colossal war
The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for
feel that unspeakable aura when hear this song..symphonic destructive black metal mixed..
extremely beautiful song. i see this as a flicker of hope as finnish music goes worse and worse, but black metal still lives, love it! this makes me proud of being a finn.

Thanks for uploading this song. Thanks to MetalBite for giving this album a 10/10 which lead me to it. \m/
@Djentard Oh you should check out the doc Heavy Metal Baghdad if you haven't, great film about a struggling metal band in.. Well, Baghdad.
This is just waaaay to epic.
masterpiece
@paopao791 is it really? i love swallow the sun, i saw them with katatonia, amazing show
@Multidestruction8 Yea it's so anti-commercial that you can "buy" their music.
I would never forsake my right hand like that.
I love symphonic black metal
Epic!
AWESOME!!!!!
Finally...a good black metal band...;) |,,|

rly awesome, love it
awesome
is that a quote from battlestar galactica in there at the beginning?
I just trust in myself!
there is only alghazanth!
Extremely Underground!
Oh boy now we get to this stage in the comments section :D
@Djentard Well, of course, why would I argue against that lol. I'm not sure what I stated made you say that. I'm simply answering your question.
Fuckin'n aswome!!!
@Piloo92
Point Taken ;) Rock on.
Satan is not a person; however, it is the spiritual concept of bliss through Hedonism and the left-hand path.
@Piloo92 JESUS!!!!!or in spanish HEYZUS!
not bad, the best
хорошо играют.
nice man, thats great alghazanth now is symphonic black men, but nice song
@guitar7901 What?
@timarmstrong666 Yes, I believe that was Science.
@Cbuster666 there are certain religions that are ok like when kids get raped they are getting raped by most likely catholic priests, i hate catholisism because it gives religion a bad reputation but if you get into a really laid back church then it is perfectly fine, i went to some youth group and they were completely chill, the laid back churches are just there to help people and guide them through tough times in life
Such a shame they broke up!
fuck this is awesome!
@EyeLickChildren im too lazy to explain
Great fucking song
@cofarmer1982 Agreed about what you said about christ, and about hating the world.

cant ^__^
why is he?

Can't*
@Djentard Religion won't die. Children a born believing in God. They have to be taught not to.
@guitar7901 No sir, I am too lazy to explain, that is why I simply said what instead of correcting your horribly fallacious statement.
@liquidpig Well playing metal in middle eastern muslim countries can lead to jail/fines or even death. I'd say that is a bit more extreme then no liqour on Sunday.
I do see what you are getting at tho.

@timarmstrong666 Yeah lmao if religious people did a little bit of reasearch, they already have a more believeable theory on how the world was created then any religion out there...
ok,but first,you need to BELIEVE in grammar
No, LaVeyan Satanism is not the thing christians scare kids with, i know the ideology, but is a cult with "dark imagery" really needed for such a thing as "strength of the individual"? How strong are you really if you draw it from a cult?
@WarPigs192837465 Haha...that is true :P
But still, Islam is more of a problem then christianity is.
