I'M THE FUCKING DEATHDEALER
I'M THE BUTCHER OF THE WORLD
RISE UP AND ILL CUT YOU DOWN
RISE UP AND ILL CUT YOU
I'M THE FUCKING DEATHDEALER
I'M THE BUTCHER OF THE WORLD
IF YOU DON'T FEAR ME YET YOU WILL
IF YOU DON'T FEAR ME YET
MAY YOUR FOES BE MANY
MAY YOUR DAYS BE FEW
MAY ANOTHER STEAL WHAT YOU STOLE
IN RETURN FOR MY LOVE
HE STRIKES ME DOWN
EVEN AS I MAKE PRAYER FOR HIM
MAY YOUR OWN SHAME HANG YOU
MAY DISHONOR DROWN YOU
MAY THERE BE NO KINDNESS
NO KINDNESS
NO KINDNESS
Thou and Emma Ruth Rundle are not playing opposites, nor even allies on this record. They are constantly swapping roles and spotlights. At times, Rundle leads while Thou backs. At others, Thou is center stage. It's a magnificent, ego-less union. felixwav
This album gurns and churns with the dense, atmospheric power of an angel wrestling the forces of hell.
Wolfe's voice is an ethereal swirl, but it can cut like a blade. Her guitar, meanwhile, is a reaper's scythe, and with it, she flails like a Balrog summoned deep and raging from the bowels of Middle Earth.
It's an album of dreams and nightmares, a sludge-gaze torrent of painful questions hurled into the void.
A brave, bold and empowering listen. Michael Mueller
