1.	Serpent Savior 06:07	lyrics	buy track
behold the serpent savior, open your hands break your neck, break your neck, take in as much as you can we were born god damned, from the bastards of regression until we’re all blind our deep and empty orbits are filled with his gifts our silent praise of the old ones fills the cavern we're all blind chained to the altar of the dweller there is no sky, no hope, no prayer buried beneath the great red sea the blind ones call their savior we’re all blind here before the dweller there is no terror in my heart we are now one the vessel is now filled we’re all blind the dweller is summoned your servant forever for all time take my eyes so that I may see take my voice so that I may know the truth
2.	Rapture of the Deep 06:43	lyrics
lost in a cold and longing stare flesh crawling from your bones the ground is beckoning below all you would have to do is take one step forward and let go jump you have the right to die you have the power to take your own life your heart is dead and frozen you testify steer your car into traffic is the reply you do not want to go to endless sleep the darkness finds a way into your mind it creeps rapture of the deep call of the void (L’appel du vide) kill yourself
3.	Pyramid of the Sea 05:48	lyrics
the abyssal tomb rises from beneath the waves slowly reaching its zenith what man has uncovered should have remained buried hidden for all time the old god rises the endtime is nigh three bloated faces of pestilence each one made in our own broken image apocalyptic prophecies once foretold now come true the pyramid of the sea is torn asunder as its prisoner is released arms spread wide, he casts down the stones that once held him fire hurled as the cattle spread in panic the old god rises the endtime is nigh his mouths filled with tongues each tongue made of eyes the all seeing demon is reborn the great and terrible god is made anew we must unmake the world we must destroy all that we’ve created
4.	Snake Oil 06:02	lyrics
heed not the words of the snake oil man heed not the lies of the snake oil man your guilt his elixirs will cure your sorrow masked by his poison cryptic words conjuring ancient fear dark oblivion is his greatest weapon hang him from the highest branch keep him close to his savior hang him from the highest branch try reaching out to your god sew his lips so he may not proclaim blasphemous prophecies of the word made flesh heed not the words of the snake oil man heed not the lies serpent and lamb are one in the same heed not the lies
5.	The Key, the Gate, the Light 06:00	lyrics
there is no light in this endless purgatory we are alone, forgotten only empty skies remain there is no answer from on high, only empty skies our pleas ring out empty and ignored we are alone there is no answer from on high, only empty skies our pleas ring out empty and ignored have we been forsaken? wear now this mask waxen and foul the robe that hides all flesh and bone gaping maws surround me beckoning me forward into darkness that which is eternal can never be unseen there is no light the black goat of the woods the wretched herald of he who is eternal beyond all knowing, beyond all time (her thousand young are) waiting rending flesh from bone in an unholy communion I have been chosen as the temple I am the key, the gate, the light the face and the hands of the messenger greet me frozen in time eternal I have been chosen
6.	Innkeeper 07:42	lyrics
doctor holmes, what have you done? proclaim your madness proclaim your genius doctor, what have you done? these twisted halls shall be our doom these blackened walls death's holy womb city of white, castle of death cower in fear, take your last breath these twisted halls shall be our doom these blackened walls death's holy womb the gas, unbearable fume snaking through pipes, filling our lungs, blinding our eyes the doctor enters the room here to pretend, deceiving our hearts, clouding our minds the corpse enters its tomb blinding through fire he is our captor, he is our god he is our god doctor, what have you done? (your death is my masterpiece) doctor, what have you done? (I am the one within) personify madness, personify genius (through this, I will be your god) doctor holmes, what have you done? (through this, I will be eternal) I will be eternal

supported by 8 fans who also own “Old Gods”

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
