lyrics
Cold rain begets the rising tide
Drowned in the void of ageless sleep
Eternal silence bound to time
Cast through oceans of joyless depths
Failure choking the voice of the desolate
Despair cast to the silence of apathy
Withering and desperate, shunned from light
Buried under waves of rancor
Upon the shore of the final dawn
Where seeds of grief are reaped and sown
A dour bloom devoid of life
A dismal gloom gray skies belie
Waves wear the stone, reduced to dust
As the last farewell gives into dusk
Weary and lost, absent of faith
In the oceans rest our final fate
Ice forms upon the fading pyre
Snuffing the light that once gave hope
Nights now endless, vacant of dreams
Lost within the seas of formless doom
Mourning prayers lost to the blight
Desperate cries forsaken by the light
Fading and mournful, exiled by life
Death will be our only reprieve

Grabbed this on Bandcamp whilst watching it being played live at The Dome. Tears welled up as the final crescendo peaked and had it been the end of my cycle, I would have happily spontaneously combusted, I then realised it was only dawn and the first of the triptych, so I will soldier on, at least until dusk and endure another two stellar opus’s before I can embark on that final journey.

one of the best death doom bands so far. great melodies with great atmospheres. mostly slow, heavy and doomy but sometimes there are these groovy double-bass drum moments wich are pretty fucking cool. if you like death doom and melodic atmospheric black metal, this is for you. Sælzer Bub

Este para mi fue sin duda uno de los mejores lanzamientos del 2021, gran trabajo de Rise To The Sky, death doom atmosférico que desde el primer momento que lo escuchas te envuelve en ese ambiente de tristeza y dolor, melodías cargadas de emotividad que te llegan a lo mas profundo, me encanta cuando la música logra hacerte sentir lo que siente el artista, melancolía pura y perfección en cada canción.

A blackened doom concept record about the very real problem of amphibian extinction, “Croak” is a punishing, essential listen. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 23, 2022
Joseph Hawker subverts the musical and sociopolitical status quo with a black metal triptych that's as incendiary as it is impressionistic. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 5, 2022

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
