Who sleep shall awake...
Greeting the shadows from the sun.

Who sleep shall awake...
Watching the thunder of our lives,

Waiting for the moment to arrive,
Show us the silence in the rise.

So that we may,
Someday understand...


Lord Summerisle: "Now, those children out there, they're jumping through the flames in the hope that the god of the fire will make them fruitful. Really, you can't blame them. After all, what girl would not prefer the child of a god to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"

Sergeant Howie: "And you encourage them in this?"

Lord Summerisle: "Actively! It's most important to teach new generation born of Summerisle be made aware that here the old gods aren't dead."

Sergeant Howie: "And what of the true God? To whose glory churches and monasteries have been built on these islands for generations past? Now shall what of Him?"

Lord Summerisle: "Oh, he's dead. He can't complain. He had his chance and, in modern parlance, blew it."

This is why Agallochs EPs NEED to be released on cd/itunes. it mades me cry, reflect, and even puts me in this mood of total beauty. In fact it's songs like this that are so beautiful that it makes you kill yourself bcause there is so much emotion that you don't know what to do. Every time i hear this, i want to cry, scream, and put my hand through a wall; but at the same time, meditade, ponder, and close my eyes and think. Thank god(s) that Agalloch isn't famous

Humanity is a part of nature...

@darklord2626 i get you, i know how hard it can be to express via words, text even more so. that person just missed completely what you were working towards. its ok though, this will happen. there are obviously those you sync with what you were saying though, obviously via the "thumbs up" have to not attach to those you get lost in translation. they'll come around eventually. :)

@goodbybluemonday 1973 acually :p

@Hypermantrasoul That's Christopher Lee from the Wicker Man, one of my favorite movies! Gave me a love for paganism. The 1979 version mind you, NOT the one with Nicolas Cage.

What is the end of the song from at 4:49?

Beautiful...The Ending never get's old

@FuckYouHonestly all i said is that the emotion is so powerful, it's overwelming. I don't intend to EVER acually kill myself, just used the text to express the degree of which i was talking about.

@darklord2626

Wtf, seriously, a comment about wanting to kill yourself and all this other emo crap getting to the top of the comments list? Agalloch is beautiful, sublimely atmospheric music, but please, there are better ways to expess your emotions.

[JosePablo24]

@darklord2626 That is exactly how i feel, i dont know what to do upon the perfection of this song
