    From death to death. From nil to naught. From chasm to the abyss. From exodus into darkness. Through the chambers of unlit to the twisted depths of flesh corruption, we urge all heathens and acts of heresy to come forth!

    Making a pact of formlessness and nothingness, HORDES OF THE BLACK CROSS (MELB) and FUNERAL MOON (ADEL) are now armed with a 10” split album due for official release on Wednesday March 1st 2017.

    From the shadows of the Australian black metal underground come these two primal forces of unbinding fire. Arising from the same grimy DIY culture that froths a nihilistic worldview and a universal art/life practice, Hordes Of The Black Cross and Funeral Moon recognized the other as kindred spirits united to devastate a scene intent on imitation and insincerity. Yet neither forget the old gods and masters of black metal, as they forge their own path of twisted destruction.

lyrics

Rejection of the forest path
Far along the broken way
Funereal procession
Dappled in light and shade

Adorned from head to toe
A full body mask of deceit
Drenched in the musk of ages
Disgust will not escape from this scene

Unholy rites enacted
With each waking breath
Voluntary extinction
Earth on fire

Drowning in a cesspool
Of things and greed
Nations are gripped
By imagined needs
Vile denunciators amass
Wild natures suppressed

Heathens within the burgeoning flock
Denounce hypocrisy
From the altars rise
Cry blasphemy
From the decadent heights
Raised fists when the times not right
Give credence to those that deny
Within the ranks our worst enemies arise
Revolution not fast enough for us to survive

Our gift is our curse
From birth we learn to abuse
Consume the final moment
Of doom

War against all
Rages on evermore
No forgiveness
No remorse

Power to create
Right to destroy
Elaborated ethics
Final thought

We give thanks for the lives we had
And mourn the coming of the end
The end

HORDES OF THE BLACK CROSS image

HORDES OF THE BLACK CROSS Melbourne, Australia

From the unending depths of the Southern Hemisphere, the caustic ascending death has been revealed.

To end the hunger and the crippling thirst, They consumed the chaos of flesh and drunk the elixir from the Goddess of War!

Thus, from the past, here and now is the procession into Chaos, Knowledge, The Self and Death via the black arts. ... more
