about
Shores Of Null’s third work, “Beyond The Shores (On Death And Dying)” continues to prove the band’s willingness to go off the beaten path and create their ultimate doom manifesto, a 38 minute-long suite emphasizing their heavier, slower and dramatic side, inspired by the five stages of grief formulated by the Swiss-American psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. The band has collaborated on the dark opus with many special guests, including two doom-titans, Mikko Kotamäki (Swallow The Sun) and Thomas A.G. Jensen (Saturnus), along with the angelic voice of Elisabetta Marchetti (Inno). The band is able to present an even more diverse and eclectic sound on the album thanks to the addition of classical instruments like piano and violin, along with the return of the talented Marco “Cinghio” Mastrobuono (Hour Of Penance, Fleshgod Apocalypse) behind the production desk.
lyrics
Woke up to this
Blissful morning
Blazing sunlight
Laid down the veil
Blissful yearning
Strains will be gone, far behind
Wandering through these
Cheerful moments
The truce I’ve come to realize
The grasp of your hand
Let me relish
In failure I’ll find
Why?
Why me?
This cannot be true
Aren’t we immortal?
Why?
Why me?
From this fear I run away
From this fear I shy away
Why?
Why me?
Awareness of finitude
Truth is a dish best served cold
Why?
Why?
Is there a God punishing me?
Is there a heaven for the doomed?
When denial is a broken weapon
Here I stand contemplating my own death
Through isolation I strive
In order to pursue life
Tribulation has never left this hall
Neither life nor death can make me whole
Hope got past the defence line
A barricade against myself
I’m at war, no matter where I’ll go
Swallowing poison as a sour antidote
I must stop striving for illusory ends
The day will surely come, here I am
Life is at war
Life is at war with us
Life is at war
On life’s battlefield
Look for no allies but yourself
Life is at war
Life is at war with us
A vessel in the dark sea
Sailing on waves of turmoil
Wavering into the downpour
As rain plays the music of sadness
A sinking wreck is what I am
Consume the dreams
Above my fearful thoughts
Pristine and weak
Devouring all hopes
Until pain will guide me home
Until pain will guide me home
On the brink of eternity, my desperate hope
I will never regain what once has gone
Under the bright stars of a winter evening
All this pain surely has some meaning
Come down, grief
Ride the waves
As the cold wind blows
A matter of time
Till I drown in the glow
On the brink of eternity, my desperate hope
I will never regain what once has gone
Under the bright stars of a winter evening
All this pain surely has some meaning
Where’s God? Oh, I beg you
I’m clinging to the threads of fate
I know I’m sinking
Will you give me some more time?
Will you give me some more time?
Consume the dreams
Above my fearful thoughts
Pristine and weak
Devouring all hopes
Until pain will guide me home
Until pain will guide me home
No more anger, no more rage
Bound to face the final loss
Can’t no longer bear the pain
Words are hollow and futile
Sit with me
Hear this silence so loud
As my own hands grow cold
Grief eternal
Dolefulness
For every failure I can’t amend
Life denied me
I’m her hostage
Silently waiting for this to end
Sit with me
Hear this silence so loud
As my own hands grow cold
So cold…
Death is my servant
She’s at my door
Crossed the unknown seas
To bring me home
It ain’t forever
It ain’t forever
In a heartbeat
We lose everything
Every hour passed awaiting
Keep on seeing my world through tears
Hope’s lurking out
Death’s lurking out
Life is at war
Life is at war with us
Life is at war…
I’m ready for my departure
Yes, bid me farewell
Mourned the loss of beauty
Ready for my journey to end
I’m going beyond the shores
To doze off
Day has dawned
Dark becomes light
I am ready to move on
Here I stand
A bare framework
I’ve come to terms with my own fate
In my quiet expectation
Child’s sleep in reverse
Tired, weak, placid
Void of feelings, my journey is done
Sit with me
Hear the silence so loud
As my scrawny hands grow cold
So cold…
Within the vast sky
We are fallen stars
We flare up briefly
Then die out
Come down, grief
Ride the waves
As the cold wind blows
A matter of time
Till I drown in the glow

supported by 77 fans who also own “Beyond The Shores (On Death And Dying)”
Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
