Calamity sea!
What an absolutely amazing album!
Visions of fire!
On my 6th time listing. N great premiere today. 8/21/23. Stupid work. BMP4LIFE 👹🖤
What an album, we are truly in a black metal renaissance.
Very much agree. What would you say is your favorite release of late?
@@zombne Probably Miserere Luminis - Ordalie but honestly hard to choose with so many killer releases every month.
Lumen ad Mortem and Antrisch. But I can't keep up with it all so have probably missed a lot of good ones
@@zombne for me its anything by Gaerea
@@zombne The Last Path by Nostalghia is an absolute banger and Efflorescence is probably the best song I've listened to in years. I highly recommend checking out that album.
Who's here in 2024 because of this masterpiece?!
I keep coming back to this every week.
Count my in 😜🤪😝🤘🤘🤘
Im not here
Me!🤘🏼💀
Same I only survived 2023 because this album was released
Bands like this never get the credit they deserve
Because there is no physical Medium. Thats it.
@@allgaeu_doom Physical CD is available now
Good taste, and the patience required for searching for good stuff, are not for everyone.
And if and when they do… all the purists say they’re doing it wrong 🤣🤣🤣 Or the album makes its 20 year mark loll
Yeah, that's right..sort of like us...😊
Norway will always remain the heart and soul of black metal.
Finland produces the best Black Metal imo
Ugh. Nope. Do your homework.
I Think Too
@@patrickbertlein4626?
@@mikeh4972any finnish band is shit.
This is one of the best releases I've heard this year so far.
I was thinking exactly the same! 😁
Right on 🤘
Exactly.
Absolutely 🤟
I bought it instantly. This record fires up from within my soul.
I never believed such a masterpiece from start to finish could be released in this time.
It’s amazing artwork done here 🎉
I truly agree my friend.The same thing i thought!
Oh yea that’s good shit right there.
ever heard of Old Man's Child ?
It's insane how you find and promote masterpieces upon masterpieces. I mean holy fuck how magnificent this album and countless of others are that I've found through your channel! 👏👏👏
💯 I would know nothing about these bands if not for this channel
@@locust7777 same! Its hard to keep track on the endless list I'm adding these albums too and I am all here for it 😎
Same here...due to an ilness i'm on sick leave now for almost half a year and even the amount of time that is available to me is hardly enough to listen to everything. I sometimes skip hours of sleep because i can't stop myself from finding new treasures
@@sarahpotter4008 kinda of a similiar situation for me. been home and depraving in depression for more than 3 years now. I on the other hand have had all the time in the world so have spent many hours on end listening to these great albums. Sometimes they're the only solitude I can find. Hope you'll get better soon.
@@BrotherJuunassame here! Black Metal brings great solace in depressing and desperate times
Tremendous. An absolute banger of an album.
Masterpiece🤛👌👌💯💯
Holy shit this album checks all the boxes. Brutal, fast, great melodies, memorable compositions. Instant buy when I get home.
I was wondering why it sounded so good. Dan Swäno that is why!
What an amazing Black Metal release! Hymnic, powerful, dark & gloomy, melodic & passionate. I hope this album to be released on CD and on vinyl too with a great cover Artwork.
The part beginning at 14:40 is just pure gold!
Jeden z najlepších albumov roku 2023! Každému kto počúva Dissection, Vinterland, Wintersun alebo Sacramentum musí srdiečko radosťou poskočiť. Skvelá vec!
Zobacz sobie jeszcze Shylmagoghnar.
@@CastleShield Ok, vypočujem si. Ďakujem za tip.
Damn.. This album is easily one of the best I've heard this year. I've always loved Sworn, for me, one of the best Melodic Black bands around. Their first album The Alleviation is an absolute masterpiece imo. The other 2 following albums are also excellent. What a great release, I'm putting this album on repeat during the next few weeks!
Kawał dobrej muzy 🔥🤘 przyjemnie się słucha !!!!!!
First time that I heard these guys. Sounds 👌.
Absolutely gorgeous 🖤🙏🤘 Music, Production, Mix 🔥 Hail SWORN 💀
Brilliance overload 😍
Best metal album I've heard in a while.
Großartig! Volle Punktzahl!!
Merely speechless for this masterpiece...Melody and rhythm at their best being combined with epic black vocals. Well done guys!
Literally listening to this all day in 24. I can’t explain just how excellent this feels to listen to. I have listened to multiple genres of metal but this combines everything I enjoy about them and the guitar work soothes my brain. This is one of the best metal albums in YEARS
Check out Valdrin - Throne of the Lunar Soul on this channel. Similar brand of melodic BM
Holy shit, it’s like one long incredible song.
Good!!!
Fantastic!
Großartig , Herrschaften!....einfach großartig!👏
Wasn’t expecting such a banger when I put it on, soo glad I found this dawg
Absolutely blown away by how simple yet majestic this album is. Truly a work of art; light, groovy, jazzy, yet with an incredibly dark, evil, cosmic sound.
Very nice!
😊Gefällt mir sehr gut.
I listened to about 30 seconds of the first track on Bandcamp and immediately hit the purchase button. This is a damned masterpiece. This is everything I ever wanted from a melodic black/death band

@@radbradmusicartist Cheers & Stay Black 'n Brutal!!!
Great sound and clear, a black metal masterpiece thank you Sworn !
end of 5th song and that synth... Daemn man!
Played that section to my wife who doesn't like metal. She liked that part. Reminded her of stranger things 😆
I've been waiting a while for another album to come out! Hell yea!!!
Can't understand a word, but the music paints a very vivid picture, creates a tangible atmosphere. Powerful stuff. Can't wait to get off work so I can listen and read the lyrics.
1. A Godless Domain {Lyrics by: Max Wilson} "Come! Inferno, come! Bring your dread sorrows and flames To drain what strength in me remains And I shall recall my journey told through fire" Displeasure, mouth of vermin A gaping flame of hatred Presomptous insolence Righteous ignorance Kings and queens fall Moonshine kingdom prevailed The arrow of nothingness Pierce their holiness The sky is painted black The venomous spear impale The mouth of inferno, exhale Light the fire Assеmble the keepers Thе soulless creations Gathered at the gates Burning the symbols Crying in vain Faithless inferno A godless domain Ascending between the seeds A newborn force to breed The crimson spark Of those who walked but walk no more They were the descendants of the burning euphoria The pandemic flame Their throne reclaimed Mare noctum Mare flammarum Mare infernum Ancient watchers told the tales Of an old forgotten memoria !!! "Set ablaze the naked flame, the eternal sign of might !!! Spread the fire throughout the world Paint my image in colors of red Illuminate the blackened sky Apex annihilation" !!!
2.Grand Eclipse A glowing sphere of dread on his path Swallows the night sky like a shroud Alone and astray he ventures off into the fray A silent breath of sacrifice Slows the course of perpetual time The arrival, the god of flame His reprisal, a reckless fate Fearless and brave on blackened soil He withstood the radiance Gazing towards an ashen shore He endured the burning night Loyal towards the ancient sun Prepared for the aftermath Secrets untold from creations of men Greatly deceived by a burning revenge Corruption ignited his world And drained the soul from its heart Now a halo of flames
3.Calamity Sea (Lyrics by: Max Wilson) The dimmest celestial light Lights his vessel in the night He lies there silent on the edge Moving within motion His world is this ocean He sees a crimson realm Through a rusted ash-stained porthole As all things fade away Lost down amongst the fiery dead The currents force him further He is cursed in the depths The realm of forgotten wrecks Through his eyes a sky aflame A dreamless horizon, an еntity Down below a voiceless ocеan The invocation remains unspoken....
Was für ein Brett🖤.Anwärter auf Top 10 Black Metal Album des Jahres🤘🌑
Those exquisite riffs and the atmosphere take it another level 🤟
I listened to this album like 20 times at least. Just epic.
back for the best !!! thx BMP and Sworn !!!!
Yeah 🖤 excellent album 🖤 hail BMP ❤️😈🖤🍺🤘😽🤘😘💌
Oh yeah...just what I needed before bed...the perfect bedtime story.
I remember listening to these guys back in like 09, nice they're still active
I really adore this album, this is without the shadow of a doubt one of the best black metal albums i've heard
It is fucking great, indeed! But there are a few other completely works of art out there it is hard to rank them..i highly recommend The Ruins Of Beverast's "Exuvia" to you and if you're also into PostBlackMetal, you should check "Noktvrn" of Der Weg einer Freiheit out. And the first three Ulver Records, and Weakling, Emperor and Darkthrone have to be mentioned too...etc etc The new Blackbraid Record is also a fucking masterpiece. Greetings from Germany!:)
JAHRESZEITEN BY NARGAROTH is also almost untouchable@@sarahpotter4008
Amazing album! greetings from the Middle East...
Fantastic🖤🔥
Awesome album! I especially loved Calamity Sea. \m/
Fav song: Visions of Fire
This is some serious good stuff! What a solid masterpiece of an album this is!
This entire album is unbelievably good. A-grade!
This great👍👏
AOTY contender. I support this band and album 100% . Their old stuff is amazing as well. Very under rated. So powerful. Thier harmony is so good how they put it all together, and the vocals are so fire. I cant get enough of this album. Hails
Man, this is one of a hell album!!! Every composition, very touching.
The song "A journey told through fire" at 2:10 reminds to me a song called Enemy of Creation from Setherial. Great stuff and melodic riffs. Love it 🙌🏼
Damn....Calamity Sea...▪️◾◼️⚫➕
Wasn’t familiar with Sworn, and I’m so glad I am now. Such an amazing album. Love the neoclassical guitar work.
Easily the BEST fucking Black Metal release in a Long fuckin time. I love this fucking record. Phenomenal
This is a great album! Very solid!
F@cking great album!!! Every single track is absolutely great!!!
It sounds fuckin great! Great band!
Awesome album I’ll have to check there other stuff out thanks for the upload BMP! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

This go list "let's play it again..and again..and again.." Very good indeed,, very big thank you Sworn und BMP!🤘💯
Epic Sound! Awesome Album 🖤
I love those clean tones. Beautiful. Love it when Black Metal does that. I'm partial to Death Metal, but they never do that thing.
Cute my breath!....the wait IS over!
This is frikking nice!
I heard a spot of Midnight Odyssey at 28min...I got excited. Great album and good structure
Simplemente espectacular disco, amo el black con melodía y buen sonido
Grand Eclipse ❤
Блэк забросил слушать,но почему то в 5 утра рискнул послушать,и на удивление зацепило, нормальный релиз на редкость для Блэка!!!
Mgla 2😅
Exelent album...
With Marduk and Soen my favorite release of 2023. First time I know about the band. It is amazing.
Awesome
I was randomly recommended. Now i am fully pledgex
I was expecting this album to be on a few end of the year lists. One of the best releases from 2023.
14:57 that leak into the solo is absolute magic
Muy bueno!!!
