1.
The Tempest 01:34
2.
Raging across darkest seas of the night Fetid winds howl with pestilent blight Untold, the voices you no longer hear Sacred lands prostrated by sickness, fear, and blackened skies As avarice and hate Sow man's fate Over forsaken shores A dark sun will rise As crimson rays of dawn light the sky Witness the tainted source of their cries Corrupting all that once was held dear From unseen depths, it shatters your mind in darkest night Ordained since the dawn of time, the conquest has begun Unworthy souls swept away by His winds of desolation Where once had flourished an ancient world, there is only decay A new Golgotha seared in pain, Revelation draws near as we kneel to the hammer Under primeval stars, in icy pain Prayers of the elect, cry out in vain As death awaits fools in frozen lands They wail for protection of divine hands from the father of lies
3.
Lines form in dark recesses of the forest Or dark recesses of my MIND? I have heard them lurking in the shadows Lord, is our holy errand cursed? Depraved land of furtive isolation There’s movement in the night Nigh, draws his judgment of the pious Slaves to the caress of the MOIRAI Damned forever, as forsaken shores are dying Corrupted by the abyss I have traversed A wretched husk of vile desolation Still, I CRY out for the light Minds tainted by fear Beyond the Pale Lies, hatred, MADNESS Beyond the Pale
4.
Prophetess 03:54
Turn back from whence you came A CURSE claims this land Augur of death and disease She binds our fate Hear my tale of prophecy, heresy, and SPITE Hear my tale of power that comes with a price Prophetess, Prophetess Condemning her lenient ideals They fear her voice A woman with impertinent zeal They call it SIN Bought from hell It is a power that cannot be tamed Bought from hell Heresy cannot go unchained The Free Grace is the true voice of EVIL From the heretic's lips, drip poisoned words Dark clouds gather above, as she foretells our ruin "Grotesque and deformed, the DEMON churns in her womb" Sick minds enraptured by her plight, divination has come with a price.
5.
Ancient shadows stretch across this place Now holy light will bring their death The DESTROYER shall sweep over the land Searing minds, extinguishing breath The pyres burn With the fires of heaven On MYSTICK shores, at the edge of fate I have arrived to claim revenge The final judgment is near at hand Victims supine, there is no recompense Chaos will be rejected by divine slaughter The souls of the wicked, cleansed by fire Pyres shining bright, heathens burning slowly Cleansed by holy light In the depths of night, REASON dies slowly Cleansed by holy light
6.
Born by winds of eternal hate Rears the progeny of darkest FEARS, innate As the elect few shelter in the west And assert the will of righteous dominance The ripping maw of amoral wit Etches into the flesh Turning from light to dark DIRE edicts are seared into the flesh As the stench of charnel rapine Destroys sanity and enslaves the mind When bias and rapacity govern human kind A life of oppression is codified into the flesh Now embrace DEATH Chattel souls, esse stripped away Thrust into a world of slow decay Where the elect few conquer ancient shores And cast rectitude into the void
7.
Awakening 08:01
Rise from this nescient dream With open EYES, look Lies, lies Witness as flesh burns like coal in this Burgeoning world of SIN No, protecting this guise of truth? As the blood runs red? I witness pain and rage LIES, lies To embrace the truth You must shed this crown of blood Make your choice Rise from my nescient sleep? Into omniscient pain? I have witnessed the death of our soul Trampled into the grave As I set this crown on my brow, I reject the truth Blind to the blood on our hands Innocents will know TRUE PAIN
8.
Mourning War 09:34
Portents of this world’s destruction Like a SIREN’S call from the past Forspeak riven minds that are addled As the pious behold what their chaos has wrought Souls laid bare to base impulses Now they will only know fear Seeds of extinction stretch from thine hands Lest we fall to these PAPISTS, again and again The Earth holds its breath as our gaze turns to the north Fires of hatred are burning, in our thoughts Oh SIRE of holy light To live, they must die May the heavens ring with the roar of their cries As we are damned for all time The ancient demise raging deep In our hearts EONS of endless bloodshed A nature we cannot abate Now once ancient shores are wracked by battle An enduring cadence of anguish and death While they bow to apocryphal crosses And worship with SAVAGE zeal The scion of true faith will blanket these lands As the cycle continues, again and again Vengeance, torture, sickness, war rages on Madness, ruin, MOURNING, war rages on

Malleus has returned to present us with 'The Fires Of Heaven". Expanding on and refining their influences from the seminal first wave era of death and black metal, they have delivered unto us 8 savage bursts of classic blackened metal. Combining brooding atmosphere, razor sharp riffs, fiercely delivered drumming and raw, throat ripping vocals, all summoned and sent forth from the gloomiest crypts and corners of olde New England. Like a distant tolling bell emanating from the manic depths of humanity's past, the lyrics contemplate and belie the failings of mankind, and evoke a sense of the darkness that may yet lay ahead...
