Here, I share with you the music I've come across that has a certain quality to it, rare and elusive. The kind of music that moves you so deeply in a way that you can't understand or describe. The lyrics or music or video may make no sense to your brain, but it does to your soul. It's beautifully cathartic and inspiring.

This song can't be approached like most music. It is unlike anything I have ever heard. Its beauty could easily be missed if you're expecting something else. The video is an important part of the experience, further amplifying the atmosphere and mood of the song and absorbing you into its world.
Black metal and doom metal are fused into a massive, mind-bending downpour of sound into your ears, a perpetual roar of chaos that quickly becomes soothing despite its intensity. Within that chaos is a deeply powerful melancholic beauty. I don't think I fully understand the lyrics, but they are interesting to think about. I find it very refreshing to see such a psychological, spiritual, and meditative perspective in music. I'm fascinated by that kind of thing, but music rarely seems to address such topics.
Lyrics aside, I'm in awe at the music. Forget everything you think you know about how music sounds, and give this song a listen if you have a few minutes to spare!
