Winters Plague (The Final Eclipse)

by Bryan Eckermann

mourner Musical storytelling with first class production values and overall great technicality. Mostly mid-tempo, some songs are more tending towards death metal other are more blackened. I like it most when the pace is going to the extreme (fast or slow isn't important) because those emphasize the emotions in the songs. Favorite track: Phantoms.
Metallurgical Fire

Metallurgical Fire This album and its conceptual sequel, Plague Bringers, are both addictive listens. Bryan tells stories with his albums, and the riffs are in service to those stories. There’s never any technical guitar noodling for the sake of showing off. I love what this guy brings to the table. Favorite track: Refusal Of Fate.

MindOverFour I gather that this was originally released as the band "Winter's Plague" but is now an Eckermann solo album. In any case, it is quite excellent blackened death metal with surprising goth-y euro melodic death aspects. Favorite track: Phantoms.

Prelude 01:09

Nightmare 04:11
the mind cannot conceive, when there's nothing left to believe humanity has lost all hope the dream of a better life, is now a dream just to die (just to die) the horrors that we face the nightmare we can't erase a meaningless hourglass in a world where days don't pass and the seasons never change we are the only ones left to blame this is our nightmare this is our nightmare, the pain we cannot share (cannot share) the conclusion of our fate, a life to suffocate (suffocate), slowly this is our nightmare, the pain we cannot share (cannot share) the conclusion of our fate, a race to subjegate (subjegate), slowly igniting the fight for life (fight for life) the choice is ours not to die (not to die) we must survive above it all (above it all) we haven't come so far just to fall (just to fall)
3.
one who's life will bear the cold now sent through times no man could survive the prophets spoke, in faded breath bear witness, to the final quest ride to the north through the vast waste all hope lies in your hands, now the life (the life), we once knew (we once knew) is gone the final battle remains the tale to be written our fate lies in the distance so far away... the chosen one he is winters' son (X2)
4.
Phantoms 03:44
behold the wretched filth, the ravaging winter storm unrelenting desolation, a ravenous hunger born chaos breeding madness, humanity turns to scorn the frozen surface cracks, and the seeds begin to form and pushing deeper the thorn i can feel them in my thoughts pushing deeper the thorn they speak to me in my dreams (in my dreams) urging suicide (suicide) their haunting me in my sleep (in my sleep) urging me to die (me to die) kneel at the altar, pray for disaster hope is abandoned, lost to the phantoms they're speaking to me, deep in my dreams urging suicide they're following me, haunting my sleep urgin me to die (X2)
5.
a grip of decay sweeps the land, our world devoured generations wiped from the face of the earth the smell of death carries on the wind the lingering presence, of this fathomless void bottomless is the pit that swallows us whole the frozen ruin, where all our dreams will die the terror looming in our hearts and minds the last illusion, of normal life is gone we can't imagine how to count the cost falling like the sands through the hourglass the golden age is a memory passed smothered in the onset oblivion where the phantoms take shape clouds of black, swarm in around me as the veil tears, the walls close in the irreversable truth is reality, and our grave is the darkness the mask of blind perception floods the pits of our despair the sickness, a cancer in the mind imprisoned by our own thoughts a trail of desolation, littered with bodies we shutter at the thought, as reality bleeds in the frozen ruin, where all our dreams will die the terror looming in our hearts and minds the last illusion, of normal life is gone we can't imagine how to count the cost clawing at our skin to shed the torment within ripping at the flesh, our lucid thoughts they infect (X2) its time to die, to suffer and cry the fall from grace, the end of the human race as we pass through the gates, where only hell awaits (X2)
6.
Now forever, we are gone Raped in the wake The world not ours To rely on anymore Sever the ties With our fading cries Our lives are lost Day drifts away In eternal decay All hope is gone...
7.
we will not fall, the plague of winter spreads feed on the death, the righteous live on breeding the warmth, to rise up again fearing the end, dreams will haunt you visions descend, of haunting figures time never exists, the dawn will not come we compromised, to our demise rulers we were born, no signs lead us here no pleasure in this pain no fear in our disdain enlightening, no faltering fate has never won the war has only begun the enemy is never seen the darkened cloak surrounding me... surrounding me...

Path To Hell 05:08
desolate, storming winds the flame of hope divine will is fading, thoughts unclear the mind is weaker than thine every step, through darkened death consciousness declines the kingdom of ice awaits through bitter lands of waste oh, the pain reveals death is all to near in the distance, the shadows wait the presence of fear in the darkness, no guiding light no senses aware the time approaches now the gates appear charging forth, to the end fading cries, beckoning life lies in your hands destiny calling thoughts now are blurring mentally blinded fate be thy guide to end this eclipse...
10.
kingdoms, in glory rise darkness, our fading pride evil conquers minds see no ending here we fall to dreams, succumb to fears they'll steal our souls, and freeze our tears but we'll live on, in silence spill the blood of man, suffer in death's hands we must find a way to escape this fate one by one, our brothers fall earth mother, we are calling across the waste, we ride search for the key, to unlocking peace build on the faith, the righteous cast all our pain, to numbness
11.
winter comes again the darkness falls the light will not shine again the dawn of fear the withered plains the mask of life tears away death will bring life at least in vision under the blades of ice we will die pray for the sun to come for us all escape this fate never to fall or wither away until death's all i see...
12.
Face To Face 05:28
Silence breaking, through hell and beyond Presence revealed, awakening Preying minds, sensing fear Blood will stain my eyes But pain i'll only see Revenge is felt inside Throught the suffering One by one they'll fall to death In misery regressed, their fragile flesh A dying race revealed The weakness they've conceiled Destruction is at hand The kingdom crumbles away The sphere in the sky Will fall with the break of day Fate won't save, the life of the one But time will save The earth from decay
