Produce the truth with white-hot iron,
Knowledge is power, but the cross is wood
Repudiate the heavenly mandate,
We crossed the line in a march to war
I saw the end through an inverted mirror,
Mankind has four legs again,
Plunged into chaos, we all collapse
Though my reflection stayed the same "
"This is a perverse corruption of heaven,
a sickly name I no longer trust,
Earth has long been destroyed,
and mankind consumed by winds of plague
he appeared to me at the edge of the forest,
he said all signs lead down below
I had not the strength to follow him,
as he vanished into the shadows of the eternal night
And now as the ground turns to ash,
I gaze upon a briar throne
in the heart of the dark wood, it grows
left alone by the inferno as all else is consumed
Behold the world that molten fury has ripped asunder,
an unholy demonstration of might
what's left of the hallowed ground,
has rotted away with the sins of man. "
About yoozum
Well, I'm Russian, but I live here in the US. I've been playing guitar for about 7 years. I'm pretty decent and can do all of the standard metal stuff like tapping, sweeping, pinch harmonics, whammy harmonics, etc.
I don't really look or seem like a metalhead, apart from wearing an occasional black band shirt/hoody. I'm in school for Economics and work for the Federal Reserve system of the US.
I've been on UG since 2001, but only made an account a year or two ago.

I have a black metal/ambient project with my friend. It's called Aedificium and if someone knows the reference, then they will have my utmost respect. We are in the process of putting the final touches on the songs, so we'll have an actual version besides the Guitar Pro version.
I cover the lyrics, most of the growling, electric guitar, and bass duties.
He does clean vocals, acoustic guitar, keyboard, and drum machine.
He brings a lot of the ambient influence, while I am influenced a lot by bands like Darkthrone, with a somewhat minimalistic feel. However, since I love to shred, I'm not above putting some sweep picking licks in the solos as long as they sound tasteful.
