Как выяснилось, не одним фольк-роком жива Ярославская волость - пытаются делать в ней ещё и так называемый cyber metal. История гласит, что проект Bog Morok был основан в конце 90-х годов прошлого века, в то время представляя собой one-man band и исполняя музыку в стилях, варьирующихся от black-death до doom-death metal. Постепенно, по всей видимости, развиваясь творчески и духовно, а также набирая в проект новых членов, мозг оного (проекта) решил сменить музыкальную ориентацию, результаты чего мы и можем услышать на рецензируемом ныне альбоме. Я не знаком с их последним на данный момент опусом "Syn.Thesis", и допускаю, что там ситуация может быть иная, но здесь материал представляет собой весьма жутковатый и малоаппетитный винегрет из жёстких ню-металических гитарных риффов, сбивчивых синтетических ударных и сумасшедшей, но местами вполне атмосферной электроники. В музыке чувствуются различные влияния, начиная от самого неудачного альбома Crematory "Revolution" и заканчивая ажно творчеством Marilyn Manson и всяких KoЯn, и переплетаются они между собой, мягко говоря, диковато и гротескно. Какие-то параллели можно провести также со шведским Pain, но Петеру Тагтгрену такая сумбурность не приснилась бы и в кошмарном сне. Впрочем, кое-какие просветы изредка наблюдаются, как, например, в некоторых фрагментах "Five Degrees" (особенно в концовке) или в целиком хитовой и энергичной "D - K", но, в основном, странное эклектичное месиво из различных электронных и псевдо-металических направлений очень сильно напрягает слух и портит настроение. Как известно, сам Morok является также участником folkened death-doom metal проекта, именуемого Во Скорбях. От последнего-то я жду нового альбома с нетерпением, а вот от Bog Morok - нет. Возможно, я не прав, но, в целом, данный эксперимент я не могу назвать удачным, хотя слышно, что всё делалось отнюдь не спустя рукава. Оголтелым же любителям различных современных электронно-металических извращений релиз порекомендовать, в принципе, можно.

Same as you, same as they're
Never thought I would join you there
A Place we all have to share
Dead-end, closed curve
Time to learn that
There's no fate
Just stumbling blinded in the dark
There's no fate
In this crate
Obscure fragments lit by the sparks
In the world of shade
Useless actions, pointless words
Who's above it, who's behind
Wrong directions, uncertain paths
Darkened souls, moulded minds
Dead-end, closed curve
Time to learn that
There's no fate
Just stumbling blinded in the dark
There's no fate
In this crate
Obscure fragments lit by the sparks
In the world of shade
Faith is lost, trust is lost
At the end it's all in vain
Faith is lost, trust is lost
Just a stupid game to play
2. Exile
Turned by wicked illness into a slave
Through the night he roams, spreading the stench
Denied by the people, he rose against them
In the silence of woods he found his rest
He walks through the forest and burns the earth with hate
Sowing fear, inspiring loathing, cursed is his fate
For many years he roams as a symbol of death
The evil oh so strong, much stronger than the good
Like a thief he creeps in the dark
Bringing hate to the light of the sun
World of living lost once for all
Only evil tearing his soul
He walks through the forest and burns the earth with hate
Sowing fear, inspiring loathing, cursed is his fate
For many years he roams as a symbol of death
The evil oh so strong, much stronger than the good
He eats stinking carrions
Stolen from worms
He sucks with greediness water
Out of rotten stumps
Where the dead moves nature dying
Forest dwellers walk aside him
Under his feet, grass turns yellow
Leaves fade away
Mournful wolfish howl is his herald
Wherever he may stray
Beware belated wanderer
Walking through this ancient place
Your death may be hiding
Where you can never await
4. Stadiae II
Through the labyrinths of wounded brain
Through the dark side of consciousness
I roam blindly, falling, stumbling
Along the verges of forbidden knowledge
Like an explorer of mortal, fleeting flesh
That opens life's shell with a scalpel
By the flight of thought I slice the brain
In the name of lust for perverted death
I see evil
It lives on the other side
I hear evil
Calling to open the gates
I can tell you all about evil
Cause I am not afraid of
What you call Nightmare
I open the door to the gardens of secret pleasures
I cognize the orgasm of suffering
I smell the aroma of rotting flowers of my mind
Rejoicing in whatever lies beyond the border of comprehending
And like a pathologist
Pulling out the intestines
I extract outside
The beasts so strange residing in my mind
And the beasts begin to eat
The remnants of slavish trivial judgement
Relics of humanity
Everything that was a sin
And like a skillful trainer
Beasts of prey without fear
I feed them on the ashes of my mind
In morbid visions of mine
I see evil
It lives on the other side
I hear evil
Calling to open the gates
I can tell you all about evil
Cause I am not afraid of
What you call Nightmare
5. Five Degrees
Learning corporal pain
Make first step to endlessness
Tearing flesh with knife
Beauty of creation
Second step, joy of rack
Make them feel lust to death
In the murders you comprehend the sense
As I almost knew
In the torments you find the joy of pain
As I almost learned
Five steps into infinity
To reach the utmost entirety
Five steps into infinity
To re-arrange the entity
Third step, joy of kill
Despise the human pity
Foul smell of decay
Makes you feel the bliss
Fires of burnt towns
Bless your blood red path
Forth step, free your flesh
Mortify your own brain
Crush your mind with pleasure
For it cannot resist anymore
Now you're free of the pain
Make the fifth step and the last
The infinity is open
Spheres of cosmos shine for you
In the depths of the spaces
You are fly free of life, free of death
Soaring 'bove the ravaged world lying dead
6. Diatribe
I dream I see brave new world
Where there's no death, and no torments
A place where there's no horror of agony
And no tears of children
But it's a dream, it will be gone
Leaving the taste of bitterness
But it's a dream it will be gone
And awakening will come
I dream of my relatives I love
In my dream they are safe
But the world of the living IS so cruel
And I wake up on their graves
Reality, life's severe
Disease, war and pestilence
Death savouring, enjoyment of pain
Insanity grows
Serial killers in uniform
Sowing fear and woe
Darkness of minds, violence and hate
Insanity grows
I see your face everywhere
Without you I am dying
I wake up at night in emptiness
And all alone I'm crying
Now I make the last sacrifice
Throw my life on the altar
I feel this god longs for blood
So I leave this world for my own one
Now I make the last sacrifice
Throwing my life on the altar
Now I leave this world for my own one
Full of joy of creation
7. No More
The sin is only way to live
Born and the unforgiven
There's no force to overcome
This full circle must be done
And no longer
And no more
I'll re-open
These old sores
Oh I see the inner struggle
Can't you see it, don't you know
Refrain:
Hate, only hate
Pain, only pain
Rage, only rage
Leads to every aim
No indulgence for us (x4)
Satisfy your lust
Sacrifice your soul
I will be the last
To watch and join this Fall
Now the time for us is lost
Now here is only dust
The ashes and the dust
I can't believe it...
8. Nyctalopia
Locked in a cell of the body searching for door
[but stumbling on walls]
Like lonesome stranger I roam longing for light
[in labyrinth of senses]
Mind burden by the body cannot soar
Tears like poison of snake killing the sight
Like lonesome stranger I roam searching for door
Soul in despair beats on the shell shaking the walls
Walls of my prison from which falling down
Spiders of fear building their nests all around
I feel as madness catches my brain
Using to cell
I know it my new home forever
Embrace me caress me
With thousands hairy paws
Caress me embrace me
With hundreds sticky bodies
Swinging on waves of the bliss granted by pain
Yearning to break away was just in vain
She won't give me in wrong to the outer world
Nothing compares to eternity, or to her
I feel as madness catches my brain
Using to cell
I know it my new home forever
Embrace me caress me
With thousands hairy paws
Caress me embrace me
With hundreds sticky bodies
What for the light if night is fine
She whispers me her lullabies
What for the light if night is fine
She hypnotizes with her eyes
And I fly forth through the labyrinths where I
Learned love and hatred, pain and joy
There where the voices calling me on
There where someone awaits for me for so long
9. D - K
Look the time stopped here
Listen sound of decay
Feel the empty space
Left for ruination
This place rotting
This place dying
No light shining
It's time to
Disorganize
Disharmonize
Progress made its end
Time to descend
To disorganize
To disharmonize
Another time, another place
For inbreeding human race
Another world, another space
While its heritage in disgrace
See the dead machines
Tools are disarrayed
They are dream of past
Where the mankind stayed
This place rotting
This place dying
No light shining
It's time to
Disorganize
Disharmonize
10. Sleepless
Every evening awaiting the night
I afraid of what to become
Things I have to see in a dream
And the ones who waiting me there
Afraid to sleep defenseless I am
There's no force to suppress them
Their will is over my mind
Their will is only to kill
But now Morpheus overcomes
As I cannot open my eyes
Ailing peace possesses me whole
Unreality's the end of this path
"Come with us," whisper I hear
"Don't be afraid you are in a dream
The forbidden fruit of the murder
You have to learn to get out of here"
And I move submitted to an alien will
Someone puts the knife in my hand
Peering into the night with another's eyes
Looking for a victim in the dark
Consoling oneself it is only nightmare
In the morning everything will be gone
So the next night I'll try to
Not to sleep, not to make a wrong
Now the morning came, voices left me
Sun is rose I see it with my eyes
But the blood covers my hands
Blood of my next in turn sacrifice
I know I did it not to stay there,
In the dark...
And again Morpheus overcomes
As I cannot open my eyes
Ailing peace possesses me whole
The reality's the end of this path
