1.	Treading the Path of Cryptic Wisdom 06:18	lyrics	buy track
Divine descendants of thunderous highlands Rising as unbreakable walls from shadows undone Carved upon its slopes their kings’ eternal legacy Along the coast of Arčesh, cradle of the mighty throne Haldine uštabe masine šuri karune Ašur Istidi ulhudi Ninveh qaapqa rulini The hellish desert spewed forth treacherous races of old For centuries remained the vow to eradicate Futile collisions left the gods’ thirst unquenched The Highlanders’ judgment upon the chosen caste Haldi, by thy will, thy sacred legacy Passed through ancient bloodlines to Orontids Ardi Gunuše Areni Theispas by your holy will United by blood brothers stood strong All those who came to engrave their names Called forth to ordain the decree of Heliac Legions of vengeance marched to the south To carry out the ancient verdic Where scattered raged impostors, burnt by the sun Pillars never fallen, Ašur’s unyielding might Raised on desecrated blood for thee revered gods Where boundless wisdom and scrolls remained untold Instead vain shrines of conceit stood boldly tall 612 brought forth, Haldi’s relentless wrath Glorious Ninveh in embers, engulfed in Shivini’s flames Immortal Arasins tread the path of cryptic wisdom

Journey through universal gates searching for enlightenment Sages of esoteric knowledge recover polytheistic reality Haldi inoculates new thoughts into the human mind Foregone paleocontact for aspired progress Kuera, Lord of the mountain spirits, fount of sapience Bestow hierophants supreme untold mysteries Theispas, Shivini, I invoke the astral spirits Theispas, Shivini, grant us divine essence Ancient cosmic myths take us to our genesis Across uncertain signs and temporal duality Ode to Arni for endowing us unearthly energy Old testimony revealed on sublime mounts Gods of Van Guide our kings Kings of the Universe Winds of past Seeds of truth Left in Arzashkun Theispas, Shivini, I invoke the astral spirits Theispas, Shivini, grant us divine essence Inaccessible doorways to Eldiri now unveiled Аs deciphered inscriptions foretold May the oracles predict subterranean realms Where Solar Gods prevail Haldinaani, ka beidini, maanini, ulguše Theispas, Shivini, I invoke the astral spirits Theispas, Shivini, grant us divine essence

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

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli

A Pagan black metal masterpiece. Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
