lyrics
I'm sucking sadness from your guts
an ugly mug that thrills and cuts
bile and burden
lymph and blood
our surreal sermon
never shuts
I am the laughter in your heart
as arteries narrow, feeble, tart
meat that burgeons
perfect art
on display
on coffin carts
everything to be
and everything to happen
lives or just dies
and is forgotten
snaps and sighs
and is forgiven
rotten
You are rotten
and reborn
You're staining leaves, sharpening thorns
a feeble tongue that now adorns
the hubris in your scented cries
the nectar streaming from your eyes
you drip I swallow
feast and wallow
calyx, soma, candycoma
munching, crunching, suffocate
everything to be
and everything to happen
lives or just dies
and is forgotten
snaps and sighs
and is forgiven
rotten
rotten
rotten
rotten
from the blossom
to the bottom
misbegotten

Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
Screamo, post-rock, and a little black metal meld together for Virginia quartet Infant Island's signature immersive and melancholy sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2020

I've finally got Black Line on physical copy and this record actually blew my mind. There's so much beauty to this album but also its so crushingly heavy and extreme in an audio sense, Respire don't hold back they just let everything go and beyond, amazing!! Darknight
