lyrics

Passing
(Strange before the calm)

The movement, indistinct
yet a tremor and a turmoil
evident progress
of a vacant flux

Whirling in the wide open
and immense in distances

As fluent
as erosion
tearing and devouring
the soil of the solid

With its chaotic pulse
this surge
of a low tone

as the shivers down a spine
bending in the current
like a straw de-rooted and soaked

The sensation:
a flickering
blown out
by the passing
of a drift

in the air
through us
as we float

and this was not a choice we made

I only discovered IKU-TURSO by a split release with Kalmankantaja and was overwhelmed afterwards by their latest release "Pakana". As the Finnish atmosphere, the piercing guitars and perfect interaction of melodies and harsh black metal thrills me, I ended up putting all releases of this Nordic horde to my collection. I can only recommend doing so, as grand songs like "Bleached Bones in Utter Darkness" should simply be heard by all real black metal enthusiasts! H.L.

Now, here we have an exceptionally solid piece of northern pagan metal!! Like early Emperor with a folkish touch, this is too brilliant and well composed to be missed. Kursma
