My mind is begging to start but my hands betray,
the mist inside my eyes appears always in silence,
Dither, is might. Is this the beginning of the end?
Dreams and truths are inside of me. No eternity!
Ask yourself...
God, Forgive me...
Ask to yourself just once who you are?
Fanciful of just mad? Lost soul lost...
When we close our eyes we think of dreams,
of dreams that never realized.
Sometimes we feel the pain,
but our ashes don't touch the Sun...
Lost in own tale dreams...
Are those real of just shaking reflections of my mind?
Despair is in me again, is this that soon?
Pain not cries anymore, only echoes
crowded by the darkness,
I wish they see, people who live for eternity,
I wish someone holds my hand..
Wishes are torn apart with despairs in my last breath.
If the expectation and longings have gone,
If reveries are only echoes of my sick mind,
and I'm still alone... mornings are still dark?

A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue. Matt Richardson

There's something about Immensity's take on the genre that is far more immersive and emotive than average, and it lies in those lengthy, dynamic tracks that feel like they're telling a story with their melodies and sound manipulation. Looking for a potential breath of fresh air in death doom? This album may be for you.

This was truly a revelation. I was getting started with funeral doom, working on something with my headphones on... Then came Déluge... my jaw actually dropped, I stopped what I was doing and, wide-eyed, just listened to the track, baffled and amazed. After the album was over (I never do this), I went to lay down with my headphones to enjoy it over again.
I rarely heard (and felt) this much power and emotion in an album. Until I find something better, this is my landmark for peak funeral doom. fluo

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes
