T-Shirt/Shirt
The shirt illustrates the lyrics of the song Ruinen:
"Ich habe eine weiße Taube ausgesandt, doch kehrte sie als Krähe zurück, ihr Gefieder ganz verbrannt. Vom grau-schwarzen Aschekleid umsäumt krächzt sie ihr Lied vom Tod, ganz verträumt."
(I sent out a white dove, yet it returned as a crow, its feathering utterly burned. Lined by a grayish black gown of ash, it languorously caws its song of death.)

lyrics
Kann man eine Flamme wieder entfachen
Die man niemals gekannt?
Kann sie aus der Glut erwachen
Die niemals gebrannt?
Verlorene Seelen –
Ich seh' das Herz verdorrt
Die Leidenschaft hat sich erhängt
und die Glut zerstört
Das Licht ist erloschen
Nur die Schatten bleiben zurück
In Hoffnung auf Wiederkehr
Und ein neues altes Glück
Wo einst ein Feuer
Und gestern noch Glut
Seh‘ ich nur Asche
Und trockenes Blut
The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.
Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler
What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub
Extraordinary work by Antrisch, can't stop listening to it although Black Metal usually struggles to convince me.
Same like for Antrisch's EXPEDITION I: Dissonanzgrat applies: This album is strong from its first sounds of creaking wooden hull to its last sounds of wind and waves, deciding for a favourite track would not do justice for the geniality of the remaining five, the one coming closest to a favourite one could be I FESTGEFROREN - Packeisfalle in my opinion. onkelchristoph
An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2021
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
