lyrics

A Marriage of Flesh and Air

A conjured creation in knots and bones
in a pounding of fragments, a rupture of stones
As in death we dance, we crawl through this
As in death we dance, we stumble amiss

Jilt and jitter to an ending of worlds
where our hearts will either break or bronze
Dervish twirling to horizons uncared
in dances ferocia anima downstared

Wingless and withered but raging alive
The dueling dischord just magnifies
The rhythms of rendering rhymes
with which we vengeful gods destroy the hive

Celebrate the marriage of flesh and air

Faceted eyes see all but none
Guided by the grasp of drones
A crawling chaos , follow the horde
Carry the void toward its throne

Throw away the anchors, the steadfast, the light
and tell of that which you see in the dark
A shared immersion in blood and cadence
A syncopic structure of stabbing sparks

Come dance in the flames of a world to reveal
Come dance in the fire of a world brought to heel

Whirling and weakened but wasted no more
This flame rekindles the embers of a once before
A cessation of life extinguished by a forging flood
A time anon, born from the ashes of brine and blood

Come dance in the flames of a world to reveal
Come dance in the fire of a world brought to heel

Ripping the fabric in strands tied to naught
To bear the raging worlds within
Through the ruined gasp that surrounds
a seething silence forced to whims,
the impulse of passion, impetus’ charm
this is a vowel of encompassing harm
of cathartic deliverance through purging blaze,
through shedding the shells of this suffocate haze

Jilt and jitter to a beginning of worlds
where our hearts will either break or bronze

about

Terzij de Horde image

Terzij de Horde Utrecht, Netherlands

Terzij de Horde combine an amalgam of progressive black and doom metal with a rawness reminiscent of extreme hardcore or chaotic screamo.

Terzij de Horde is Dutch for “athwart the horde”. It is a line from the poem “Einde” (ending) by legendary Dutch poet Hendrik Marsman. Marsman is an inspiration to the band, as are many other authors and philosophers in the same dark vitalistic vein. ... more

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

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.
