about
Mt Tarawera is located in the central North Island of New Zealand. Early Māori and the Europeans who arrived in the 1800s did not realise that Tarawera was an active volcano. Early in the morning on 10 June 1886 a fissure on Mt Tarawera erupted, and over the following 4 hours the volcano spewed steam, mud and ash. The official death toll was put at around 150 people - the deadliest in the history of New Zealand settlement.

lyrics
Witness the floating, omen of doom
Punished for all they, did consume
Awoken by tremors, molten rock
Sight to behold, frozen with shock
Column of smoke, 10k high
Dawn was thick, blackened sky
Trapped burnt in their homes
Destroyed beyond their control
Mother nature has overthrown
Once families, now turned to stone
Hell spews forth from silent beast
Sanctuary wont come from prayer or priest
Column of smoke, 10k high
Dawn was thick, blackened sky
Trapped burnt in their homes
Destroyed beyond their control
Sky lit up, great flashes of flame
The omen, the curse, the shame
Witness the floating, omen of doom
Punished for all they, did consume
Column of smoke, 10k high
Dawn was thick, blackened sky
Trapped burnt in their homes
Destroyed beyond their control
The mass destruction
Lasted six hours
The mouth of magma
Spills and devours

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae

This whole album is flawless. This is music for walking in the rain and letting your thoughts run. It's not just a collection of songs, but an actual album. yakbone
