A Thousand Legions Remain
from Summoned to the Abyss by Beast Conjurator
lyrics
Haze of lethargy clouding the Self
Illusive paths of infirmity
Deceive the fool and proclaim his knell
Crawling in the pathways of the Left
Only through darkness can we reach the True Light
Duality can be annulled and shattered
For those who suppress the bounds of the blind
(god) god of worms, so lame and pathetic
Three times I spit upon your word of false love
For you are the imagery of failure
With your blood I shall write my curse
Paramount, elder orphic sovereigns
Thou that once ruled upon this world
The aeon of the weak has collapsed
The time has come to regain the thrones
Blasphemy is my sword of True Will
Against the sheep I shall prevail
Strength forged in cleverness
The languor of the middling I deny
Circle to circle – Through the serpentine ways
The sewers of my soul, the Light to embrace my doom
Ascending in wisdom through roads that no one teaches
To learn the howling scheme, the names of 72
The Lesser Key, revealed to me
The deepest urge of my soul
A secret law to conquer all
Revealing the unknown
The triangle – Rivers of my own blood
Ascension through the spheres where nothing grows
Dismantled cliffs, where pestilence has wings
Conjuration of beings from voids below
Evocation sigils
Signs to unlock the mind
Primitive power
Knowledge lies behind
The Lesser Key revealed to me
The deepest urge of my soul
A secret law to conquer all
Revealing the unknown
Thou watch and seek - Thou guard and keep
Become the mirror of my Self
Behind the veils - On eerie plans
A thousand legions remain
Worship the fire
Of clearness and growth
Ha Shem Hameforash
Lemegeton burns
And I have become King of the Spirits as well of Heaven as of Earth, Master of the Dwellers of the Air, and of the Living Souls of the Sea, because I was in possession of the Key of the Hidden Gates of Light.
I have done great things by the virtue of the Shemamphorash, and by the Thirty-two Paths of Yetzirah.
I will now give unto thee the Key of the Kingdom of the Spirits.
This Key is the same as that of the Mysterious Numbers of Yetzirah
The spirits are governed by the natural and universal hierarchy of things.
Three command Three through the medium of Three.
There are the Spirits of Above, those of Below, and those of the Centre; The Sacred Ladder, if thou descendest instead of ascending, thou wilt discover the Counter-Hierarchy of the Shells, or of the Dead Spirits.
Know thou only that the Principalities of Heaven, the Virtues, and the Powers, are not Persons, but dignities.
They are the Degrees of the Sacred Ladder upon which the Spirits ascend and descend.
This is the manner of making sacrifices
In all arts and operations wherein it is necessary
And acting thus, the spirits will be prompt to serve thee.
Here endeth our Key.

This is the most personally appealing piece of music I have run into in a long time - from the beautiful lyrics and art and the crushing, non pretentious gorgeous heavy music. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, crushing - are there are other words? Gorgeous, exquisite....

Transcendent Emptiness
by PERDITION WINDSsupported by 78 fans who also own “A Thousand Legions Remain”
The band pays tribute to old-school black metal without becoming a cliché. Their music is exactly what I want when I want to listen to straight-up Second Wave black metal. The riffs were memorable and weren’t diluted by too-long run times; the drums were resonant and powerful without being overpowering, and the songwriting was excellent overall. Finland black metal band att the finest. 10/10 ⚔🖤⚔.

Rebirth Of Horror
by God Diseasesupported by 78 fans who also own “A Thousand Legions Remain”
Heaviest of the heavy, God Disease's sound is something dredged up from the murky deep. Visceral, foul, and menacing, these EPs are mesmerizing and achieve an unrelenting grip on my psyche every time I play one of them.
