Triptykon - 'Visions of Mortality' (live at Bloodstock 2023)

My life turns into sand
Immortality is my dream
Man shall follow my command
Sorcery shall conquer my fear
Astral magic and runic wand
I feel that wisdom is near

Across the mountain's ice
Scarlett at the equinox' dawn
I sacrificed an innocent lamb
And drunk the wine of paradise
But, still run the sands of time
Just one thing yet to be done

As spells surround me
At a lightmass' night
He raised the abyss
Covered by the sword

I sold my soul in vain
I feel it, as he returns
The sands of time will never run
For an immortal dead man

Οι Triptykon σχηματίσθηκαν το 2008 από τον Thomas Gabriel Fischer μετά την διάλυση των Celtic Frost. Κυκλοφόρησαν δύο "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους ("Eparistera Daimones" 2010, "Melana Chasmata" 2014), ένα ep ("Shatter" 2010), ένα single ("Breathing" 2014), ένα boxed set ("Eparistera Daimones - The Complete Sessions" 2010) και ένα live album ("Requiem (Live at Roadburn 2019)" 2020).

Στην παρούσα ανάρτηση θα τους παρακολουθήσουμε να αποδίδουν "ζωντανά" -στο φετινό Bloodstock Open Air Metal Festival- το τραγούδι των Celtic Frost "Visions of Mortality", το οποίο γνωρίσαμε στον ντεμπούτο των C.F. "Morbid Tales" που κυκλοφόρησε το φθινόπωρο του 1984...
