sumgui Another varied and incredibly dopey/trippy album - and i dont mean that as a gimmick. The sound is complex and really well done. Although this is what I come to expect from Seneschal(...) album! Thanks!
Wondervein is incredible and enchanting.

The structure of some of these is tremendous : Tomes is quite a journey!
Love the sounds of Lord of Dread and Manor of open doors too!

Vampiric Hypnosis is the reason why I bought the album, great, chill track! Favorite track: Tomes.

heaving breasts reddening cheeks her porcelaine skin mesmerizing she's irresistible petaled sheets satin and candles ghostly complexion can any man handle such love such lust sanguine intermission just a tryst, a quick liaison under night's fall transfixed in your gaze, mistress seduced and stumbling through this haze of bliss <gibbous moon eats the dark> suffused in your haze, mistress seduced and stumbling through this veil of mist <gibbous moon eats the dark> icy touch light as a feather clouded mind vision untethered irrestistible sanguine intermission just a tryst, a quick liaison under night's fall transfixed in your gaze, mistress seduced and stumbling through this haze of bliss <gibbous moon eats the dark> suffused in your haze, mistress seduced and stumbling through this veil of mist <curse this hunger> while i sleep i can still hear her footsteps <skittering about> in the deep of the woods we are still <joined at the heart> sleepy trees shelter hunters in peril once the hunger has struck the connection is gone <feral mind, in the dark> cliffside mansion wall of ice behind the door the secret lies <a reflection?> hallways decked in red and black the widow lurks then she attacks <consummation>

Nightmare 04:18
turn the soil around freshly, with leaves and pray to your god hunched, pale ghoul 'tween a row of dead plague of rape and woe graveyard scented hellscapes fantasy just recreates the nightmare paralyzed repeater toss and turn with fever cockroach eater underground in a casket breaking down my telepathy knows no bounds feel my bones emit the sound of the sweetest dirge lulling you to rest flaming cross in a sea of smoke choking on your woe billowing eternal have you learned the meaning of the nightmare? doomed to dream your failure paralyzed, disfigured

watch that girl between all those boys can you wrap your mind 'round what she's done? hope is a wondervein send her to the strip mines so suck it empty til the well runs dry hope is a wondervein send her to the strip mines the horn of plenty seeps at the bands overflowing flower milk for every man watch that girl between all those boys can you wrap your mind 'round what she's done? hope is a wondervein send her to the strip mines a whore is deadly but a blade will sort her out ash in her hair braided with roses the embers flare repent through immolation! stoke the pyre pluck your lyre even though your strings are all snapping so suck it empty til the well runs dry hope is a wondervein send her to the strip mines a whore is deadly but a blade will sort her out open the wondervein drink up from the mainline
