Et nati morimur...
Consumpti sumus diebus quidquid
regulas quam aedificavit,
sed moriamur in nomine decorantur et esse.
Sentiant usque in praesens tempus habemus,
quae pro nobis, quia nascendi tempore mortis natura,
vestigium relinquere caligine in mixto tenebris...
Infinito corpore, peregrinamur a tenebris,
calefacta mansiunculas et flumina sanguine...
Nostri spiritus, in eius mane spectacula viam
divina animas exhaurient mortuorum corpora,
vaga cogitationes.
Nos ire per cursus et,
qua profectus iter ad circuli nascentes.
Nos sunt moriens...
Et sicut mors genuit...
Et quia nativitas mortis...
Et lux perpetua luceat...
Et cadet terra ante pedes...
Natum me et senex et puer clamat anus ut patebit.
Et ita circuli claudit...
Et nihil prohibere eam...
Et non finire...
Et sunt natus...
Natus et mori...

Powerful, plaintive expression of the fathomless sorrow of our suffering cetaceans and their depthless home, together with the indescribable loveliness of their distant blue-black realm. I feel as much interstellar space here as I do deep ocean, equally crushing and buoying. Dave Aftandilian

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
