TwistedStatue35 I can't stop listening to this album, it sounds desolate but welcoming at the same time. One of my top 5 for dsbm. Favorite track: Devoid of Life.

kowaikage Nordicwinter is my most listened to artist over the last year. Dark, haunting, beautiful, sad atmospheres that draw me in over and over again. Every release is very highly recommended! Favorite track: Beneath the Fleeting Light.

j-kep Is this the best Nordicwinter release to date? The answer is a resounding yes. Opaque as though you were looking at it through eyes full of tears, this is an exquisitely mournful record, one that leaves you both stunned and cleansed. Favorite track: Devoid of Life.

I see my destiny in the falling leaves Dead and rotting upon the icy ground I hear echoing laments of the fallen To this dismal tomb I am forever bound In this rapture of death I fall into dark nothingness With these crimson tears I sleep in this hallowed darkness I feel the cold winds upon the faded breath A darkened veil blinds these weeping eyes In destitute slumber I lay and wait For the hymns of the death and endless skies In this rapture of death I fall into dark nothingness With these crimson tears I sleep in this hallowed darkness
2.
Caressed by these cold winds No rest I have yet to find In desolate veils I sleep Dreams of what I left behind This sadness enshrines me Never lets me see the light In darkness I shall remain I hear the death's toll tonight Beneath this pale moonlight I fade into nothingness I shall close these blind eyes In death, none shall bear witness This sadness enshrines me Never lets me see the light In darkness I shall remain I hear the death's toll tonight Caressed by these cold winds No rest I have yet to find In desolate veils I sleep Dreams of what I left behind

The forest calls forth my name, On winds of desolation Darkened heart soon death shall claim, Within mists of dark crimson Within the veil of sadness The solitude entombs me Beneath the fleeting light Eyes now blind to destiny In winter's veil I now sleep, To rest in eternal night In this tomb my life shall keep, To never witness daylight Within the veil of sadness The solitude entombs me Beneath the fleeting light Eyes now blind to destiny
5.
Devastated I lay alone In my tormented sadness Within this crimson tomb I embraces the dismal ashes The memories are now fading Of this once barrable life Her lost souls has been laid to rest Abandoned I live my strife Memories, devoid of Life The echoes of whispers fade Beneath the dimming light A glimpse of her face now veiled A faded painting of lost memories The midnight toll echoes I am free In desperation I fall to my knees And shall rest in death's hallowed valleys

-Reviews-

90/100
"Nordicwinter‘s sound is made of icy darkness. Between two moments of quietness, Beneath the Fleeting Light wraps us in its heavy mist, hits us with aerial riffs, and terrifies us with its ghostly screams."

4/5
"Beneath the Fleeting Light balances a layered approach to the track structures without you felling like you need hours of repeat listens to unpick them. The message is very clear from the off. Here be the depths of despair, now simply sit back and listen."

"Nordicwinter makes Black Metal-related music that is highly contemplative and introspective. It is in fact very beautiful at times, even more so when the artist fares deeper into atmospheric metal´s soundscapes as he widens and develops the layers in the music."
