lyrics

Gothic, this masquerade

Welcome to the great hall of this masquerade
Those of nocturnal blood are gathered here tonight

The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death

She descends the grandiose stairs clad in raven black
I took her by the hand for her final mortal dance

The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death
They dance hand in hand at midnight's haunting strike
Remove your mask and set yourself free

Mistress of the dark, warm my cold, black heart
Show me your faith's unbroken
Beauty of the night, drifting from the light
Take my hand and join me
To dance the dance of death

Cloaked in the moonlight
Dark passion in her eyes
Rose petals fall, around us like snow
I held her close, and tore the flesh from her throat

The dark embraced at this masquerade
Gathered here, from far and near
To dance the dance of death
They dance hand in hand at midnight's haunting strike
The night welcomes you, My bride in black

Dysphoria
by Black Void Cult

supported by 6 fans who also own “Gothic, This Masquerade”

With a harrowing vision of disdain and melancholy, BVC has embellished in Dysphoria the poetic beauty of 7 literal meanings to define the unbearable burdens of Anxiety in which the melodies serves as mirrors of our darkened emotions surrounded in the shrouds of sadness and apathy. Let this LP serves as a window to see through our soul and be aware that no matter how hard life is, we are not alone, and never fear to speak your heart out with your love ones. josedenoche

Emptiness fills The Void
by Stortregn

supported by 5 fans who also own “Gothic, This Masquerade”

Swiss Melodic Black / Death Metal. I never wrote anything about this & given that I listen to it time & again, I really should! This is incredibly technical & amazingy good! I am having multiple eargasms & goosebumps for the entire duration of the album! Plus they have a new album coming out in a couple of months that I cannot wait for! A criminally underrated band... Stortregn rule! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
