Lyrics:

Have you ever seen beyond the reach?
Have you ever felt the change?
Visions from an altered state
They conceal and relevate

Communing once again with Gods
Thread unto the impossible path
Talking with a different tongue
Heralding the unsung

Reach for them, see them turn away

Have you ever seen beyond the reach?
Have you ever felt the change?
Visions from an altered state
They conceal and relevate
Fly away, chains undone

Reach for them, see them turn away

Doors open wide
Step into the light
No turning back
Embrace the night
Breathe eternities
We are not alone
Never to return
Merge with the unknown

The first time i heard this song i thought i heard: "Have you ever seen me on the beach?". Since then, everytime i hear this song i get a mental picture of Herbrand Larsen in sexy shorts running on the beach in slow motion, Bay Watch style... xD

Interesting Sound - Not Quite the Bluegrass I had Expected.... but, a good CLEAN Sound --- Stomping Persistent Drum Beat, and Calming Echoing Vocals simialr to AIC, with Moments of Total CHAOS and hell!!. ...screatching guitar... good rythym, and interesting solos! ---Black and Death, or Clean and Growing --- Iam not sure, maybe both!

@Slamayer Seeing them this March, along with Cannibal Corpse. Not entirely sure how well those two will mix, but it should be a fun night!

@BabaHangedOS I had also a great moment with Allfadr Odin, one i will remember for the rest of my life. I also saw in youtube another guy telling his good moment with lifandir lif undi hamri..

I think enslaved music have supernatural powers, just like burzum try to make

@AnthemsToTheWelkin lol how does this comment dont have 999 thumbs up? haha

[AnthemsToTheWelkin]

I like the new stuff, but compare this to the Yggdrasil demo and it gets raped like a goat in Mayhem's dressing room.

This song has a power to raise a wind. I want to tell what happened to me 3 years ago while I was listening to this album. It was a sunny, late summer day and I was walking home from work. Ruun started and all of a sudden wind slowly began to blow. When the song reached chorus at 4:06 the wind got strong and raised a lot of dust and leaves carrying it around and it was an amazing scene. As the song ended, the wind calmed down few moments later. A very unique moment which bind me to this song.
