mourner There are more ideas in one of these songs than in a vomplete album of some more known and adored genre mates. Well done, Arthedain. Favorite track: Visions Of Fire.

Snyjxr A very interesting black metal album brimming with memorable riffs and some rather juicy guitar sound! Favorite track: Traverse The Path Of Thorns.

D I always find myself scouring the internet and depths of bandcamp looking for quality black metal like Arthedain. This EP, although short, is absolutely dark, violent, and beautiful all at once the whole way through. I fully intend on buying this EP again for a physical copy as well as anything else this band plans to put out. Instant classic. Don't sleep on this EP.

xavage j'aime beaucoup la richesse des riffs, les envolés, les ruptures et l'incroyable mélodie de ces morceaux. Et la batterie "tabanne" dur tout autant qu'elle se tait.
"Vision of fire" est génial aussi. Favorite track: Traverse The Path Of Thorns.

Renan Ribeiro e Ribeiro This EP is killer. This band brings great diversity into its black metal, and keep the surprises coming throughout the release. The lead guitar in the last track is awesome. Favorite track: Traverse The Path Of Thorns.

O Great Pan, I summon thee to guide me through the dark Light my path with the raven flame through immolation sparked Wanderer of the woods and mountains, make your presence known Lead me to isolation, where the deepest rivers flow. Lightning flashes across the sky, a blaze of dissolution The Death-Bringer rides his steed tonight, in search of retribution. The end will follow; To Chaos we shall return By your radiance blinded, And by your visage burned. O Great Pan, I summon thee to guide me through the dark Light my path with the raven flame through immolation sparked Wanderer of the woods and mountains, make your presence known Lead me to the hidden path whose name is carved in stone.

O Anti-Cosmics; reign in your majesty, Sworn to the blackest flame for eternity. In winter’s grasp beneath the freezing skies All shall come to pass before my very eyes. Vile spirits Blackened souls In the depths of the abyss On the infernal throne Visions of fire Grasping for clarity Shining through darkness Reveal yourself to me. A great storm builds on the horizon as the sky dissolves to red The waters soon will mirror this as they swell with the dead. A black moon shines it’s barren light on the few that remain The crows take hold and consume the souls of those who twist in pain.

Footsteps fall on this radiant path in the nightfall And the hours turn to days hastily. The whispering wind evokes the name of an intimate But the next moment fades into the distance. The horizon beckons with its elegant splendor So I travel to the water as if I’m in a dream. The sun turns black in an eclipse as I arrive And beauty turns to darkness beneath an empty sky. As I walk this path of thorns I do so with open arms: I embrace the end, for aeons must rescind. Wondrous departure from this existence Soon my eyes will open, consuming light from the other side.
