How do I even begin to explain
this nebulous form of an idea of what I know
Even my mind is struggling to stay sane
With the knowledge of an entity that lurks below
A nightmarish figurine in my hands
Resembling something that is out of this world
With a call to those susceptible to hear it
It's waiting for aeons in deathlike slumber
Dreaming far below
Some shall hear its call
Cults will form and grow
Madness from the sea
Sleeper of R'lyeh
When the stars are right
The Great Dreamer wakes
A great cyclopean city out at sea
A titanic grave of non-euclidian structure
A place of impossible geometry
A rotting hellscape unseen beneath the waves
Dreaming far below
Some shall hear its call
Cults will form and grow
Madness from the sea
Sleeper of R'lyeh
When the stars are right
The Great Dreamer wakes
The mere sight of his outline breaks the mind
He has awoken from his sunken mausoleum
Now he walks again to rule mankind
Such a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom
In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming
In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming

Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan
These California up-and-comers don't merely pay tribute to ’90s death metal; they make it their own by taking charge and letting it rip. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024
