about
Kto chabcom je, ten nie je hrdina,
hoc zdobí šat ho, ostrohy a čižma
a vystaví sa o ňom listina
a na prsiskách azda veľký kríž má.
Kto pre národ chce apoštolom byť,
v remesle diabla nemôže byť vinný,
musí mať čistú myseľ, čistý štít,
reč čistú, ruky čisté, čisté činy.
Janko Jesenský, “V”, Čierne Dni
---ENG---
a poem taunting Jozef Tiso, leader of the fascist Slovak state, written by an opposition poet in 1945
lyrics
Keď milovať blížneho
Milovať len seba znamená
Za nebeských chorálov vráta pekiel
Otvára dokorán hlas
Dvojakej povahy, karneval premien
Za maskou len ďalšia z másk
Nebeská žiara jest dvojakej povahy
V zákonoch božích i vesmíru
Keď davy zopnú sa pokope
Sú vlnou v nejž ostatní utonú
Všedný svet sivých farieb nestačí ideál živiť
A každý kríž dá sa ohnůť, morálka človeka skriviť
Rukami od krvi
Zviazal si s diablom osudy
Hlavu drž vysoko
Nezavaď očami o rudé potoky
Odvrhni človeka, uvítaj Beštiu
V pritesnom objatí zahrdús blížneho
Uzavri srdce lodiam z cudzích prístavov
S odlivom ich mŕtvi ti postavia mohylu
Z hmly dejín nejasný, so železnou presnosťou
Vracia sa v ozvenách chlad
Zapovedz démonov i rudé potoky
Vyzdvihni ideál hrdosti más
Kríž nesený človekom nehodný spomienok
Keď žiada sa ideál živiť
No každý kríž dá sa ohnúť, morálka človeka skriviť
---ENG---
Fugue
When to love thy neighbour
Means to love thyself
To the sound of holy choirs
The gates to hell open wide by a voice of dual
character, a carnival of changes
Behind each mask a new one
Heaven’s light is of a dual character
In the laws of God and the universe
When masses tie together
They become waves drowning the others
The boring world of greys is lacking
When the ideal must be fed
And every cross can be bent, man’s principles crooked
With hands drenched in blood
You’ve tied your fate with the devil
Hold your head up high
Don’t glimpse the red streams
Cast down the man, welcome the Beast
In an embrace too tight strangle thy neighbour
Close off your heart to ships from foreign harbours
With falling tides their dead will build your monument
From the hazy fogs of history, yet with iron precision,
The cold returns in the echoes
Denounce the demons and the red streams
Praise the ideals of national pride
A cross carried by man unfit for memoirs
When the ideals must be fed
And every cross can be bent, man’s principles crooked
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
Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
