paul rote I humbly confess I had no idea how killer this band was until their Tentagram release. Favorite track: Aeons Upon Aeons.

SIR LIEBLING CHIHUAHUA SNEEN Some of the best doom out there, the vocals are just insane and creepy(watch out Bobby Liebling) telling Lovecraftian tales over a backdrop of delicious doom, this is how it should be done!!!!!!! Favorite track: Yithian Overlords.

Grand Inquisitor Great release! Getting a slight The Lamp of Thoth feel from these guys, which is always a good thing! Favorite track: From Void to Ocean.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) If horror film makers Hammer made a musical this is what it would sound like.
Occult/doom that despite it's cartoonish creepy gothic vocals (they will grow on you) works.
Nicely nasty!

Spheres collide A beast at the heart of the world crawls to the sky With the great scraping of bones that makes continents totter Stars align Oceans surge The mountains come out to play with the comets and the stars Carnaki has fallen Dr. Silence is no more Even I, who has vanquished the Varcolac and the Strigoi Even I am at an end A crawling chaos has stolen my will I can hear inhuman voices raised in hymns unheard since the dawn of our insignificant race I’ve seen the goat of a thousand young suckle its spawn in our cities Seen Yog-Sothoth ascend to the highest circles of worldly power I have seen the signs and have read the tomes: The Mysteries of the Worm, the names of the Dead, The Keys to the Stars My knowledge has not availed me I cannot prevail I, who have faced down ancient evils Triumphed over monsters and demons I am powerless against the elder gods Aeons upon Aeons old, On this, The dreaded day Of their return.

The secret people come at night! Woah Oh night! At night! The shadows pass amongst the tome stones Through the crypts is where they go All around the candle flicker An eerie mist begins to glow The secret people come at night! The secret people come at night! They gather in the solemn graveyard Singing hymns in ancient tongues Something writhes beneath the soil And lets forth a frightful howl. They are finally reunited Brothers of forbidden cloth Collective from beyond the grave Exacting vengeance For sins unpaid. The night has given way to sunlight Dim and shrouded by the gloom The dead sink back into the soil The betrayers met their doom The secret people come at night!

They arrive from the depths of space The coming of a tyrant race Casting spells upon earth’s new races Return them to their shadowed places Tentacle, tooth, and claw Black wing, consuming maw Primitive eyes gaze in fright Shrinking back into endless night War of the elder gods Cosmic stage from distant stars Lays to waste all that thrives An insignificant planet dies Battle rages but one will rise Claiming the planet as its prize The price of power was far too great The domination came too late Stars align to poison the blood Cities became swallowed in flood The warlord returns to his lair To awaken many years later War of the elder gods Cosmic stage from distant stars Lays to waste all that thrives An insignificant planet dies

We can't seem to see What will come to be Asleep eternally A doom beneath the sea If not in our lives Then in some future time Mankind will fall pray To the lord beneath the waves From void to ocean comes the lords Within the depths, gather his hordes Within his dreams, he plots man's fall And cracks appear in slumber’s walls When the stars are right A tyrant will arise Space and time ignite So begins eternal night Lands begin to sink Down into the deep Temples reach the sky Blasphemy arise From void to ocean comes the lords Within the depths, gather his hordes Within his dreams, he plots man's fall And cracks appear in slumber’s walls Now hear the rending of minds From the deeps all madness align Under the star Hear ruinations scream A worldwide funeral A deathly dream

Oh, curse this night that I ever set my eyes Upon the creatures flapping blackly down from the sky Their membranous wings and their featureless faces Carry my dreams down to desolate places I feel my skin tingle Have I stepped in sin? I can’t account for the trouble I’m in Sentinels watching perched on steeple and roof Swooping down and their claws will soon know the truth Night gaunts on the rise Circling the skies Nodens hears their minds Night gaunts on the rise Cannot see or cry Carry you through time Oh, curse this life that I chose to take for naught Now I fly through spaces unlocked I have been judged and my sentence is pain I hear the void The comic flutes sing my name Murder of creatures flapping blackly in mass Before this throne, my mind will shatter like glass My futures bleak as I look about aghast Azathoths for is so mighty and vast Night gaunts on the rise Circling the skies Nodens hears their minds Night gaunts on the rise Cannot see or cry Carry you through time After the journey traversing through space The fiends return to their shadowy place Back to their mother for unholy rest They suckle milk from yibb-tstll black breast I awake in a padded cell Mad or sane I cannot tell From my window, I can see That the creatures are still waiting for me. Night gaunts on the rise Circling the skies Nodens hears their minds Night gaunts on the rise Cannot see or cry Carry you through time

Skull splitter Charges his foe Ax bloodied Crimson on snow And no one has seen And left with their life This beast of the southland killing with spite And no one will dare to challenge his ax Sending all souls to Satan’s grasp Skull splitter Bellows with rage The battlefield His holy place And no one is safe as long as he lives His spirit is black A cauldron of sins A chaotic force that never knows time Forever safe from the reaper’s scythe Oh! Into the valleys And over the plains A trail of death And moldering remains No lust for vengeance No love for gold A murderous frenzy Is all his heart knows Skullsplitter Forever he roams Blood and steel All that he knows And no one has seen And left with their life This beast of the southland killing with spite And no one will dare to challenge his ax Sending all souls to Satan’s grasp And no one is safe as long as he lives His spirit is black A cauldron of sins A chaotic force that never knows time Forever safe from the reaper’s scythe

Feel the shackles grip your mind It’s the downfall of our kind Into our shells, their souls are poured Our masters' Yithian overlords Beings from another plain Both divine and deranged Of these, we’ve learned from the text The tomes the arcane scholars left Chrononauts of the mind Transcending body space and time To arrive in our domain Make us all their slaves Feel the shackles grip your mind It’s the downfall of our kind Into our shells, their souls are poured Our masters' Yithian overlords In your eyes, you won't believe Of the things in which I speak But there’s no doubt you feel the fear The darkness close, the terror real And the nightmares come to pass From the present, future, past Your realization is too late There is no time to change your fate Oh no! Feel the shackles grip your mind It’s the downfall of our kind Into our shells, their souls are poured Our masters' Yithian overlords Time rifts gape Dimensional wakes Reality shudders Reality shakes Through the door An astral shore Seeing terrors Like never before Mindless slaves Bodies in chains Serving masters With nebulous ways Mankind’s son Fading away No more tomorrow No more today Listen son the time draws near I know your soul it fills with fear These things I say will come to pass Make your last rites Make ‘em fast Our time has come Bow to unearthly ones

about

Space God Ritual's 3rd album attempts to embody the darkness, mystery and horror of H.P Lovecraft's imaginative and macabre writings. Each track, from Aeons Upon Aeons to Yithian Overlords, seethes with auditory gloom and atmosphere. We invite the listener to come with us on a journey of unprecedented horror and ever impending doom.

"The band has a clear relish for their subject matter, and their union of the lyrical and musical elements works to the advantage of both, producing a resonant and genuinely spacy atmosphere."
-Ride With the Devil

"This album is a genuine tribute to good ol’ heavy, doomy metal. And it is good. Amen."
-More Fuzz

"Those who treasure the literature of Lovecraft and also enjoy the slow rhythms of the classic doom, you will find that this album brings together his love."
-Harald Wartooth Blog

about

Space God Ritual Portland, Oregon

In the deepest sub-basement of Olaff's Antiquities, The Curator gathers his faithful to spread his obscure and otherworldly message. Down they go, deep into the earth's forgotten caverns of stygian splendor, where tyrant gods await! It is there, under the ancient forest of stalactites, that the auditory horrors of Space God Ritual take their shape and are birthed into an unsuspecting world! ... more
