    I'm hoping for a Tarot part 2 with the remaining arcana. The concept of this album was amazing, to the point where it is my favourite album of this band.
    As much as I don't give a rats arse about divination, what they did with it in this album was excellent.
    The high priestess
    The empress
    The hierophant
    The lovers
    The hermit
    Wheel of fortune
    Justice
    The hanged man
    Judgement
    The world
    Easily enough for a second album. Who knows, maybe they are working on it?

    Lyrics:
    In the shadow of the light,
    I lived as a shadow of my past life.
    Tears of the father, blood of the son
    Through years of dishonor, come undone
    So I'll armor myself with this knowledge
    And I'll match my speed to the wind
    I'll journey away, far from this place
    and pray, none will know me as a "friend"
    By moonlight and starlight
    Those shadows let me astray
    Take comfort in darkness
    Hide me away from the light
    Her hand gripped mine
    I went with an open mind
    But the light she shined on me
    It burned me deep down to my bones,
    And I promised I would never
    Allow myself to feel the light again
    Through the flesh that sloughed from the bone
    Was blackened and diseased
    That flash was not my flesh
    That blood was not my blood
    Yet still in the shadow I hide
    Drag me back into the grave
    And let me die
    Cling to comfort child, no longer
    Suffer with pride
    The pain: Healing
    Wait not, for time will surely
    Not wait for thee
    Is that the ticking of the clock
    Or the beating of your weakening heart?
    Hear the thunderous rumbling

    My English is pretty bad, and i'm using comments not very often, but i just must write this. I love music. No really, everyone loves music, but in my life it holding a special place. Music is one of the main powers, that drives me through my life, setting the mood, playing in my head, even when i'm not listening something. And Melodic Death metal, Folk metal, and metal in general is the genres of music i most preferring to listen. And im always looking for the new bands, with their special vision of music. And not so long ago i find you, guys. I totally missed your past album and i'm almost feel sorry about this. I mean the brutality and beauty combined in your songs are fucking great. And that juicy sound... You are like the essence of the all MDM bands that i love, so poetic brutal and athmospheric it sounds. I wish you a great future, and the with music like that you playing, you deserve it more than everyone. Keep up the great work. You pretty new, but loyal fan from Russia. (come to our country, i want to listen you guys live)
