The Only Pure Hate -MMXVIII-

by A Canorous Quintet

supported by

Soul Strings Even after 20 years this album is still a great example of purely concentrated smdm awesomeness. Special thanks for that bonus track, reworked from the old "Curriculum Mortis" demo - I couldn't ask for more, this is simply amazing! Favorite track: The Plague That Haunts Me.

about

This year “The only pure hate” has it´s 20th birthday. Due to the quite poor sound quality, the band decided to enter the studio and re-record the album giving the album a new chance with great sound quality, as well as a way better performance.

Band statement:
This year the album “The only pure hate” has it´s 20th birthday. For this celebration the album has been re-recorded. But not only due to the anniversary, but also because of the poor sound quality on the original recording. For that reason we think that the songs deserves a new chance. The release will include a previously unreleased track called “The plague that haunts me” which was meant to include on the original record but was dropped at that time.

Track Name: Selfdeceiver (The purest of hate): Dusk has come to pass
The irreversible darkness surrounds us
Scared away from the light
No mercy will be shown
Your blood will flow
Weak minded, you deserve to die
Filled with the purest of hate
My axe rips the air

Deformed beyond recognition
The unpurest of all

Not even worthy of the ignorance
The ignorance of your slayer
Kneel on command

You, you couldn't believe
Couldn't believe it was for real
Until you realize, that it is you The selfdeciever

There is nothing, all must end
For the selfdeceivers

Not even worthy of the ignorance
The ignorance of your slayer
Kneel on command

You, you couldn't believe
Couldn't believe it was for real
Until you realize, that it is you The selfdeciever

It is you who are crawling
Crawling in a world of shit
And still you enjoy it
But even when there's nothing
Left to crawl for you're still stuck
In your pile of fucking shit

The blade will fall
To end it all
Track Name: Embryo of Lies: Hidden thoughts of hate
Trying to manipulate the fate
Unseen is the power of every man
They who see they don't understand
Truth they will not hear
Neverending sadness
Turn into pure madness

A beautiful pattern of emptiness
An empire of distress
The ruler of darkness
In an embryo of lies

Unseen is the power of every man
They who see they don't understand
Truth they will not hear
Neverending sadness
Turn into pure madness

A beautiful pattern of emptiness
An empire of distress
The ruler of darkness
In an embryo of lies

On memories they feed
But the air is so hard to breathe
Short fragments of delight
To forget the icy fright

Wish nothing else but to die
And to stop the internal cry
Waiting for the end to come
Soon it will all be gone

A beautiful pattern of emptiness
An empire of distress
The ruler of darkness
In an embryo of lies
Track Name: Red: Trust! The blind man leads the way
A burnt out candle in the hand
Chasing for eternity nevermore
Pleased with being lost forever
The touch on your face, it's lost

Too weak, too afraid to find salvation
Liquid illusions all that is seen
Believe in easy dreams, you can have it all!
Thoughts becomes too real, the end is here!

Sun moon nothing's left to see
Stars all surrounding us
As we enter into endless night
It burns inside, tear it apart

Leave it all, face grim reality
Shed a tear for the lost
Weakness lies in trust
And the foolish await the arrival
Castle of promises imprisoned
Don't believe the words

Sun moon nothing's left to see
Stars all surrounding us
As we enter into endless night
It burns inside, tear it apart

Red is the colour of our dreams
Our blood, our life, our night
When all ends up darkened
Red is the colour of our dreams
Our blood, our life, our night
I'm bleeding to death, Red

Leave it all, face grim reality
Shed a tear for the lost
Weakness lies in trust
And the foolish await the arrival
Castle of promises imprisoned
Don't believe the words

Red is the colour of our dreams
Our blood, our life, our night
When all ends up darkened
Red is the colour of our dreams
Our blood, our life, our night
I'm bleeding to death, Red
Track Name: The Void: Horrified by the magic of night
I'm enchanted under the spell
In pain I scream once again
The pain I thought that I would feel
It came upon me early this time

I try to escape into the void
Into my no-man's-land
How else would I survive?
Trapped in the spiders web
She who will eat out my heart
Leaves me with laughter's of malice

As many nights before
I fear it's my dying breath
Still I do this with pleasure
Although I know it's pointless and useless
I end up with the poison
Running through my veins

(Doomed to) eternally suffer
Eternally die
Eternally arise
Immortal in my suffering

I try to escape into the void
Into my no-man's-land
How else would I survive?

Trapped in the spiders web
She who will eat out my heart
Leaves me with laughter's of malice

The void
Track Name: Everbleed: Born to bleed with desert dream
With no illusions and no need
Made of steel but not for real
To feel is to sin
Turn blank pages in an empty book
There's nothing left to win
Born to bleed in a desert world Silent agony: everbleed
Track Name: The Complete Emptiness: No hope, no cure
No destination anymore
So empty yet complete
I've seen it all before

A gleam of light revealed
But always out of reach
I was never to know It wasn't part of the show
You need the truth, but truth hurts
What I need is not what is offered
Answers I don't want to hear
I'm sorry I can't help you, I suffer too

No hope, no cure
No destination anymore
So empty yet complete
I've seen it all before
The truth it kills
Without any blood spilled
Relieved from life
An urge to fulfill

Life is worthless, life is pain
Here I have nothing to gain
My blood runs down the drain
(Blood rain)

In spite of my dreams, I hold back
For how long will I hold back?
Don't know what life is for
But I don't want to see anymore

No hope, no cure
No destination anymore
So empty yet complete
I've seen it all before
The truth it kills
Without any blood spilled
Relieved from life
An urge to fulfill
Track Name: Retaliation: Hate lies bleeding within me
I am turned inside out
Wish you felt the pain I feel
A thorn tearing from inside

I bleed the invisible blood,
The blood of my soul,
I wish I had the strength to turn my back,
Turn my rage against you

Make you bleed the way I do,
Bury you within my darkness
Stifle in my cold embrace,
Until there's nothing left to hate
Only the purity of a newborn life

Condemned because, there is no cause
Seas of sorrow drowning me,
I'll live forevermore,
Still nevermore, I'll become your greatest fear,
Take you down to me,
To perish in my heart of darkness,
Until the end of time

Until the end of time, In this world of pain
Sorrow is all you'll gain
You get what you deserve!
Your daydreams end!
Inside this blackhole of my life,
Nothing can exist no more,
Forever engulfed, forever lost,
Within myself, within my time

I bleed the invisible blood,
The blood of my soul,
I wish I had the strength to turn my back,
Turn my rage against you

Condemned because, there is no cause
Seas of sorrow drowning me,
I'll live forevermore,
Still nevermore, I'll become your greatest fear,
Take you down to me, To perish in my heart of darkness, until the end of time
Track Name: Realm of Rain (Crystal pt.1): Misty shadows grips the heart
Souls reunite in order of chaos

White knights guards the treasures of dreams
At the centre of the storm a man is to emerge
To find the pleasure beyond the lost horizon
Now hidden beyond a realm of rain

Entering the vein of black B
lood runs red in seas of sorrow
The sun burns grey in a cloudy sky
Confusion!

White knights guards the treasures of dreams
At the centre of the storm a man is to emerge
To find the pleasure beyond the lost horizon
Now hidden beyond a realm of rain

Many questions why?
It's time to leave this earthly palace
The crystal is stolen as worlds collapse
In sickness, all life shall pass away
Reality disappears, shaking in disgust
The crystal leads astray

A foul taste of truth
Blood runs red in the flow of forever
Springs of salt runs down the face
Left alone in silent disgrace

White knights guards the treasures of dreams
At the centre of the storm a man is to emerge
To find the pleasure beyond the lost horizon
Now hidden beyond a realm of rain

As the leaves slowly falls to the ground
Forever captured spirits of life
The path is gone without a trace
Lost in a universe of deceit
But somewhere in the distant
(a light breathes it's last sigh)
Track Name: The Storm (Crystal pt.2): The storm is closing in
A shadow of a man drifting by
His life is all forgotten
He doesn't know the purpose of his dreams
Relieve this world from sorrow and pain

A struggle in misery it shall be
In his search for the lost horizon
Pain and suffering is his lost friend
As he opens his eyes and looks at the
Rainfilled skies, grey as forever

Lightning strikes as he finds that
A rainbow is bringing light to his eyes
Now he's the rider of the lost
In search of paradise and joy
But the man without a shadow stands in his path

The storm is closing in, again and again!

Lifting a sword in desperation
Cuts through lifeless air, he is gone
The tale of gods are to be told
And a raging battle unfolds
Leaving his world destroyed in desperation
The path will be neverending
As he rides through the forest of cold
Ice breaks free he is on his way

Lightning strikes as he finds that
A rainbow is bringing light to his eyes
Now he's the rider of the lost
In search of paradise and joy
But the man without a shadow stands in his path
Track Name: Land of the Lost (Crystal pt.3): Riding the winds
Across the raging seas
To reach the kings in the land of the lost
A turbulent sea, winds of cold

Reaching the harbor, they are safe
Entering the gates, castle of splendor
History of 3.000 years has passed
Walls endless as he no longer sees the sky

Mighty forces take his hand
As the wolf becomes a part of his destiny

Join us in our search for the land of the lost

Once again crossing the raging seas
To enter the forests of misery

Trees are closing in as the moonhawk
Cross the skies
The trail is filled with withering bones
Since battles of old
As they are to spill the blood of the poor
No longer unknown, followed by darkness henchmen

Once again crossing the raging seas
To enter the forests of misery

Endless speech, time is running out of hand
Dark forces stand in their way
Trying to bring disorder to his thoughts
Swords of lightning end their will
Once again victory has been won
The meeting is done

Mother earth breaks evil bonds
As his mind is freed
When he leaves the elders
With their support
Track Name: The Plague That Haunts Me: Death, deceit, dismay
The horrors of life unveiled
It is all a lie life is hell
The paleness of it all so real

A grey image of what used to be
If this world could just vanish

Inject the fluid, inject disease
Erase the plague that haunts me
Destroy my human appetites
Let my weakness, be(come) my guide

I scream, I destroy, I want to kill
Kill what's left to be killed
Everyone should be silenced
Who's my god to be?
The one who can erase my memories

Inject the fluid, inject disease
Erase the plague that haunts me
Destroy my human appetites
Let my weakness, be(come) my guide

The divine images, they enchant me
I can no longer resist, I fall prey to my urges
I´ll pay with my complacency
And so should you my dear.

Inject the fluid, inject disease
Erase the plague that haunts me
Destroy my human appetites
Let my weakness, be(come) my guide

Mortiis has always been a distinctive figure in the world of black metal/ambient, ( I always loved the "things that are not true about Mortiis" on his old website), but there's no questioning the atmosphere of these early works, and the new "Dungeon Synth" genre wouldn't exist without them. This one's my favorite; majestic and wintry. And I have always thought the nose and ears were cool. Matthew Arnold
