Darkness Falls 07:57
lyrics
When the times of great kings passed Fame of glorious victories faded out Hidden, ancient evil has waited so long Time has come, black kingdom is near Like the phoenix from the ashes We will rise and rise again only greater Darkness falls Only stronger troops of darkness never to be gone Darkness falls Join us! Fall to your knees Beg for forgiveness and show loyalty Only those carrying Mordor’s mark Will earn redemption and respect

L.U.C.I.F.E.R. 07:52
lyrics
Constructed to watch Constructed to learn the truth The eye of the earth looking into the universe Hidden between mountains Hidden against enslaved masses The eye of the earth watching the overworld Absolute lords and Vatican Crumpled in hunger of science Through the biggest eye of the earth They want to uncover god in the dark L.U.C.I.F.E.R.

Melancholy 08:17
lyrics
Things happening in this dimension mean chaos Time elapsing in hatred I don't feel like looking at pervasive aggression I don't feel like listening to clerical deceptive thrash talking I prefer to drown in constant melancholy Longing for the source of existence I am in constant melancholy Few men raise awareness Most of us know no meaning of life I don't feel like explaining that I don't think something's gonna change here I prefer to drown in constant melancholy Longing for the source of existence I am in constant melancholy And so be it

Eleven 07:41
lyrics
My aching body trembles I close my eyes And try to feel nothing The smell of fear Permeates the air I hate myself and I deserve it I hate the way you touch me I can’t stand your scent on my body I replay in my mind the sight of your death My blood is not hot anymore I lay my soul to sleep In silence of my deep The slide shows in my mind With black priest’s soutane Will always remain with me Feel sick that disgusts me Loneliness is my only guide I feel dirty inside me Hate is my mirror and nothing will change Because there is no pity in my soul Hate is my mirror I became what I am And I’m only eleven
5.
Incalculable Sadness 06:53
lyrics
Happens in the undermost areas of life Along with a poverty, pain and misery Approaches suddenly taking dark paths Sinking our minds into the vast abyss Incalculable sadness Helpless in front of its power Pervasively takes hold of us Eternally fights against happiness Unaware that he is driven by destiny Incalculable sadness Sneaks across its dark fields Reproduces infected events
6.
Dark Room 08:07
lyrics
I am the purest blackness is the massive black hole I absorb all colours, I steal the soul from beings Any caught moments I reproduce on paper The faces appear arrested by time I am the dark room I am the place where the events are recorded Which in the future will become the proof of existence Time passes by and I still last Irreversible is all that was immortalized on plate I am the dark room

about

Mordor are one of the precursors of Polish doom metal. Established in 1990 in Częstochowa, they have quickly become one of the most respected Polish doom-death bands. This was confirmed with the favourable response to their “Nothing” (1992) demo and the debut album “Prayer to…” (1993), both receiving positive reviews from around the world.

The comeback album, “Darkness…”, which is in fact the band's first album in 21 years, was recorded at No Solace Studio with production duties taken care of by M. of Mgła fame. Consisting of six tracks, it is a return to the band’s roots, naturally continuing from the band’s days in the early 90s when Mordor where one of the first representatives of Polish doom-death metal. Listeners should expect heavy riffs, strong, deep vocals and a massive sound. In short, it is a return to the old atmosphere with a much stronger sound.

The "Darkness..." artwork has been created by Arkadiusz Zając, and the graphic design was done by Mentalporn.
