lyrics

Our traces disappear,
like writings
in the sand,
wash out
with another tide

Our sanctuaries,
the places
where we breathe
wither into vacancies

Our traditions
as stage plays
hollow out
of meaning

And then we are wolves,
grey
and without teeth
we hunt behind
the pack

Two ravens leave,
not to return
from a wilderness
of horrors
Here Saturn reigns,
the devil of solitude,
and queen nostalgia
with crown of leaves
and horns
From the ruins
howls a tragic chorus

Anachron,
under those stars
we die alone
one moment here,
then we are gone
We turn away
and shed a tear,
for good old days
that never were

But then we are knights,
our swords wear
stains of rust
our coat of arms,
cobwebs and dust

On donkeys' backs,
we roam the battle fields
to overcome
the giants of time

And now we are dreams
no one remembers
songs that echo
from antiquity

We sing of decay,
as worm gnaws
at the root
to feed the soil
for a new seed

Vergezicht
by ISKANDR

supported by 6 fans who also own “Anachron”

There's not much to be proud of nowadays as a Dutchie. But man, the Extreme Metal scene is among the best in the world, if not the best. This album just proves that again. An absolute masterpiece! CeetjeBeetje

Gegrepen Door de Geest der Zielsontluiking
by FLUISTERAARS

supported by 6 fans who also own “Anachron”

thanks Fluisteraars! I just love your music. A very good atmosphérique black metal band with experimental/ ambient passage. This album is literally one of my classics in my black metal journey. The first time I heard this record, I feel scared and no other album make me feel that. Just, I feel like it's probably my favourite black metal album of all time. Continue in that way ! quentin_milcent

Heimatspuk
by MOSAIC

supported by 4 fans who also own “Anachron”

Mosaic prves yet again he is a master of his craft by forging this unique experience called Heimatspuk. His already recognizable style of Black Metal is manifested at full capacity here, with the elements of local Thuringian Folklore and lyrics inspired or intertextualized from German authors adding to the experience. As a whole the album comes out as eerie, mysterious and imposing at the same time, each track evoking a dark, ancestral atmoshpere! Pure brilliance! Gabriel Tamas

De Kronieken van het Verdwenen Kasteel - I - Harslo
by FLUISTERAARS

supported by 4 fans who also own “Anachron”

Fluisteraars! My favourite band from the country of my favourite fantasy language! I listened to this a lot today, and De Kronieken van het Verdwenen Kasteel I contains - almost - everything I love so much about these Dutchmen. The beautiful and distinctive warmth of their sound is present as well as an extended, entrancing passage and their fully unique, deliberately indiscriminant insanity. I - only slightly - prefer the first song. More EPs = more opportunities to gush over their greatness! David Fischer
