DAHAKA (Guardian of the Timeline) (François Vachon)
Narration: “Sometimes it was whispered
Sometimes it was read
The secret incantation
That filled many with dread
If you knew it
If you used it
You could reach back
To recreate your life’s track
But stop and think
If, with conceit,
Sole master of your destiny you would be
Dahaka is released
Dahaka, the Guardian of the Timeline,
Eternally preserving the order unfolding within time
No one escapes the Dahaka...”
Chorus: Now that the beast is rising
Seeking this prey through time
Always covered in darkness
The storm demon strikes
I cast that spell
And change my fate
Now forever damned
My life is an endless running away
Chorus: Now that the beast is rising
Seeking this prey through time
Always covered in darkness
The storm demon strikes
Death’s stalking me
But I won’t be its slave
Now just a wraith
My life is an endless running away
Chorus: Now that the beat is rising
Seeking this prey through time
Always covered in darkness
The storm demon strikes

It's a great blend of different metal genres and styles, with great solos in basically every song, just that touch of oriental influences that feel natural but not artificial and above all else, performed by the beautiful, haunting voice of Jelena Dobric, who uses it in a way that is not the typical operatic approach as we are used to from other female-fronted bands wormys_queue
Finnish death metallers leaven infernal dynamics with triumphant, infectious melodies, striking a compelling balance between grit and grace. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 25, 2023
