Sunrise, crucible of light
Oracular presence, enshrined
Golden dawn, blessed by Apollo’s rays
Solar beams intertwined
Now, claiming our eyes
Ablaze, baptise
None halt your rise
Dawn will claim my eyes
Radiant high
Ablaze, arise
Morning star
As its luminescence nears
A healing sphere
Darkness disappears
Helios severs the fading night
Aurora incandescent
Circadian flight
Searing, diurnal light
Dawn will claim my eyes
Radiant high
Ablaze, arise
Golden dawn will claim my eyes
Radiant high
Ablaze, arise
Morning star

The songs are masterfully composed and flow together beautifully, and the orchestration is exactly how I want metal orchestration to sound: full, playable by a real orchestra, and just as important to the music as the vocals, drums, guitar, and bass are. tonycordeshimself

I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
