And Then, He Saw It Was Death is the first release from the one member blackened doom outfit Woventongue, and is a collaboration between Finnish vocalist & lyricist Oenos, written and recorded in London throughout 2022.
Remember, the forest
The despair of coming loss
Remember, the howl
The breaking spine
Do you recall, the solitude
And do you recall, the darkness through
Your vivid dreams
Do you remember, the fallen
The tremble in the wind
Do you recall, the creaking ice
Piercing, your fragile veins
Do you recall, the loneliness
Of brief moment in pain
Remember, the faint
The desolate, silent voices
Do you recall, the desperate
Whispers crawl, and the gasp of air
Do you recall, the frozen waters lay still
Do you remember, the curse
Of those winter days
Do you remember, the end
The sinking feel, the deeper
Did you see,
It was death.

looks like the tree from that movie, or the forest mana symbol from MTG... either way, it's quite a departure from the earlier black metal offerings. I like them both (I like Magic cards better than movies, tho) so keep it up! Dumb mmmn
