how to find that so unfortunate
talking bitter claims
we never spoke before
pour instructions out for free
fix that momentary
word to replace the lapse
the garage that he's searching
to take the broken key
then throw it all on me
not the first person it met
probably the seventh again
i won't forget this anymore
and that step behind me, fills up with that presence
lay them on the ground - keep them hidden safe and sound
another temporary lapse - nothing quite like it
who hasn't heard it over and over again

Quiver

why did the holy man scratch a spot so incessantly
just to let it bleed out into a dark room
and cover up with someone elses clothes
elected or erected - a sharp statue that no one made
screams of thousands painted all the rock
losing most of their heads
wiping eyes for no reason, except to feel alive again
staring at a figure only to toss it to the floor
he never thought about doing it before
and maybe to get warm is to ask for something more

the cup collapses onto the kitchen table
leaving someone to pick up the pieces
i'm having trouble letting go, but i had to some day
fortune strikes twice and hits me once again
leaving me to bleed out of my nostrils and my ears
that ripe nectar always seems to fade away
eventually
wondering where to go as containers pile up
figures appear and wander off as the time arrives
i kind of wish something would happen soon
to stop me from making mistakes again

Theft
02:14
|

|
when any form of cherishment
lets out a gasp of air and sigh of relief
gripping cold melds over sagging fingertips
to make you wonder if you're stuck
or should be letting go for a while
who knows if its possible to understand
all the things we keep going through
when cycles of swarming noises and haze
keep blocking out everything i do
i know you're smiling, and you smile there for me
i want to see past it, that it's more than pleasantries
i'll try to look inside myself and cure it easily
or quickly - i dont know what the problem is anyway.

Motion
00:40
|
|||
|
save my moments for another one
watching motion go by endlessly
repeating the notion the notion the notion
as difference connects in subtlety
dancing to the same tune
dressed up in so much different clothing
gaining an account of infinity
and separate
where the ideas begin to conflict
continuing the cycle that never seems to end
and endlessly evolves
though i know - the entertainment we all conjure
is only part of a concrete whole
i can't stop falling into again and again and again

i'm not in pain
but i'll still write it down anyway
i'm not lusting or trusting
for a shape worth fighting for
that i can meld and summon to grant me better days
ill liquifiy its presence so i can drive along the bay
sleek and sound - imagination comes along
thriving all the boundaries that we drew
on the board
its melting, then pelting
me with various thoughts
i can't control
dreaming of the future written again
although then - prediction is of a funny sort
we're no magicians or wizards
but tripping is how i understood
what the words mean and the pictures
and how they come to direct me

Chance

fixating - the melting skies that turn
the whole world upside down
a shooting star erupts in an ocean tide
setting alight the forest fire
that dawns in an eternal night
a red moon lingers below - in the air
travelling by the passage that glares
through cityscapes and land, speeding through
into the dream devoured stares
here it goes with positive mirrors
reflecting shadows creeping up from time to time
and don't repeat the odd slithers
rust and fragmenting the caught-up dime

Relate
01:54

i hope i'm not lying to myself
when picking and choosing from the menu
items i'm no longer hungry for
should i tell anyone about what i want?
i've never desired to be replaced
by liquid, powder or a pill
air and conversation set me straight
so why am i so pleased with suffering?
brushed away into a corner at birth
wondering if it's possible to fit on this earth
don't think too hard about it, because i'm doing fine
i'll accept every single second there for me to find

Meaning
01:58
|
|||
|
ignoring all stigma
stuttering in flickering air
anxiety breathes itself
a bleak facade tugs over there
placid
yet still i'm left wanting more
gripping onto rocks of stability
hourglass falls
into a bottomless pit
with never time to crack
i can't hear the sand drop

enter any room
to draw a smile out of me
why do you throw that name
with only good things left to say
to see the benefits that come
out of hope
from this hope
we'll be there to stay
laughing for today
laughing anyway
we wear it in our hearts
i feel a drop
that shivers the blood inside
we dance along
and see a thirst that hides
diving in to sand
watch the bitterness fade
as a mouth draws near
to give me life again

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming
supported by 6 fans who also own “Itse”
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!

A relentless wall of sound with atmospheric breaks, melodies, and a general underlying sense of vague optimism. On ‘Daydream’ Misertus shows you don’t need all the bells and whistles to record a high quality metal album. I’ll be a fan for life after this release. 8/10

Faites-vous l'image mentale de quelqu'un en train de hurler pendant deux minutes directement dans vos oreilles sans discontinuer, sans reprendre sa respiration : c'est ainsi que les guitares dissonantes ouvrent le premier album éponyme du groupe australien Hope Drone — et pour reprendre le sample d'un certain album, ils ne faisaient que s'échauffer. Le trio a le cœur lourd et incorpore de la noise dans son post-doom metal pour que le désespoir soit total. Un début tout simplement grandiose !

MISERTUS’ second album again really convinced me, yet I’m not sure if I would go as far as saying that it is better than its predecessor. It surely introduced new elements to the mix and changed up some that were previously present, yet it also had some minor flaws. Nevertheless, it still is another quite strong release from this Blackgaze project, and it again deserves a strong rating! 9/10 ~ Blessed Altar Zine
