lyrics

Sail between three winds of war
One leads you home while others crave more

Have I conquered the shame?
Do they now sing my name?

Ride forth my son, slain as your guide
Ride to match your fathers stride

Was I worth it all?
Was I? Dusk I can't recall

Beyond pristine ways
Heaving sea, temerity, storm hope away
Sail sorrows grey
Drifting astray, solace frail as moonlight ray

Sail beneath the vanguard of sky
They might have fallen but still hold the light

Am I part of this land?
Am I the last of my clan?

Beyond pristine ways
Heaving sea, temerity, storm hope away
Sail sorrows grey
Drifting astray, solace frail as moonlight ray

Sun silver, rain spear
Waves shattering white

Winds sigh cold...
What mercy dark did hide
Winds sigh cold...
Wake in world veiled white
Winds sigh cold...
Where seared shores reside
Winds sigh cold...
Sheltered vernal fright
Winds sigh cold...
What mercy dark did hide
Winds sigh cold...

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate

supported by 6 fans who also own “Hundred Shores Distant”

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderun

supported by 6 fans who also own “Hundred Shores Distant”

I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer

A Pagan black metal masterpiece. Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
