The Song is about the magic giant "Rübezahl" who live in the forest (Riesengebirge) and care for the animals & humans.

lyrics

Hörst du es in der Ferne, ein Donner steigt empor.
Mensch & Tier, verstecken sich, im Wald, im tiefen Moor.
Kein Vogel singt, kein Adler kreist, wenn er steigt herab.
Rübezahl, der Herr der Berge, Waldgeist und ein Schrat.
Wenn er verlässt, sein Erdenreich und nach dem rechten sieht.
Ein jeder kann sich sicher sein, kein Unrecht hier geschieht.

Menschliches Versagen, hat ihn aus dem Schlaf erwacht.
Ein Gutsherr quält die Kinder, sein Weib mit Niedertracht.
Sich ihn ergreift, den Urian, mit einem Fluch belegt.
Der edle Herr, nie mehr gesehen, so wird sich erzählt.

Rette sich wer kann. der Riese zieht voran.
Rette sich wer kann, der Riese zieht voran.

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler

The cover painting (Udslidt by H A Brendekilde, if anyone is interested) and the music is in perfect alignment. So much sorrow, so much despair... Right from the start I can feel my soul wither away with each riff. Still, towards the end of the record I can catch little glimpses of hope in the melodies. A beautiful journey in the bleak reality of existence. vilmosomedve

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub
