Wow this is a really amazing EP! with great tunes. This is the second release of Sorrowstorm "Funeral Oath Ep" shows the great effort
this band has put on. This Ep is short but it offers some great music, raw black metal. It gives you a taste of their music.
"Cursed Fires of Gehenna" is the first song, it kick off with very fast drums followed up by the guitars. outstanding job from this guys!
Phil do drums while he sings, the vocals are pretty blackish, some death vocals can be also listened to enhance a little more the music.
The lyrics on this song are like declaration of war to all evil and to show that
Satan is lost.
The Second song "Occult Moon" follows with the same brutality, a song with many riffs, the drums keep at the same velocity as the first track.
Wow this song is amazing, the band has cut out the keyboards to give this raw and brutal sound, the keyboards were not so bad, they were used in the debut
album of Sorrowstorm, even they were used the music never turned on something symphonic or atmospheric. In this song you'll find very straight and bold lyrics.
No doubt the song title is the best song on the E.P "Funeral Oath and Resurrection" starts off with some blackish shrieks, this song is rather faster than the others,
the aggression can be seen in all the instruments even vocals, this song also shows some rhythm guitars in the middle of it .
Well this Ep offers more than 18 minutes in a 3 song E.P, Awesome! the production is better than the first album, the cover art is awesome!
it is a kind of rotten corpse, it's pretty horrific but it enhances the music a lot. This is the
greatest Sorrowstorm release ever! Something that you shouldn't miss.
this album is all sold out. but hopefully you can listen to at: www.myspace.com/sorrowstorm

Cursed Fires of Gehenna |
|
Riding through a trail of suffering
Fog blinds any sight beyond me
A demon from a distant past will soon arrive
Your demise is soon to come
My return will strengthen us
ever since birth you ruled over me
forcing the eyes sown shut, now I see
Cursed. You are truly cursed.
Cursed. Wretched, vile, cursed.
Loneliness, it claimed me first
Dwelling in this world of hurt
Ever since birth you ruled over me
Forcing my mind to rot, now I see
Cursed. You are truly cursed
Cursed. Wasted, dying, cursed.
During battle I was tested by fire
And refined by the winds of torture
Tonight we strike against the shadows
Against the ones who appear in the night
Run and Hide. Run and Hide
Upon the mountains they stood
A seething fury possessing their insides
Tonight we prove the throne belongs to us
We are to witness the end of your reign
Plagues before and plagues today
Sickened bodies in dismay
From the warning signs of sin
They will choose to turn away
As they cower, run, and hide
From this curse that breeds inside
It will tear them into shreds
Unclean Spirits. Unclean Spirits. Unclean Spirits
Your demise is soon to come
My return has brought you fear
Ever since birth you ruled over me
Forcing the eyes sown shut, now I see
Cursed. You are truly cursed.
Cursed. Satan you are cursed.
Cursed Fires!
Riding through a trail of suffering
Fog blinds any sight beyond me
A demon from a distant past will soon arrive to take you
Cursed Fires....burn the refuse

Occult Moon |
Crushing angst to find a better way
To live a life without pain
The portal opens, and the gate cannot be shut
The room is filled with shadows
And skin begins to burn
How do you stop this power of the occult?
Devices of the age when Christians were disgraced
The blasphemy must end. It must end
Human beings admired the mystical
Since fallen man was born
Creating Voids not filled with God
Creatures of the darkness roamed about
Inspiring our idolatry
Civilization under the soulless moon
The stars guide our lives
Cursed cards, crystal spheres
reading palms, spewing savage lies
Satan lives to rule his realms
The blindness of our godless eyes
Instilling greed and fueling pride
Millions killed for simple earth
Kings betrayed and widows stoned to death
The room is filled with shadows
And skin begins to burn
How do you stop the power of the occult?
Did you know that the one you adore
Is hateful and wretched beyond your control
I rebuke the power that binds in the name of Christ
The moon awaits the spells and chants, all etched in stone
Your veins crave the presence of the unholy one
YOU ARE DECEIVED, YOU ARE DECEIVED,
The CHRIST is your only hope
YOU ARE DECEIVED, YOU ARE DECEIVED,
The CHRIST is your only hope
The pain, let it end
Binding spells will lead your being astray
The hurt swept away
You reject the lies
Searching for souls to tempt,
Satan lives to rule his realms
Satan lives to rule his realms
Satan lives to rule his realms

Funeral Oath and Resurrection |
The absence of light which has never been
The premise of suffering grows with a fear
So boldly set towards destruction, I crave more experience
Now I can see the great caverns
Twisting mazes of deception
walking through the path
gathering the dead
heading towards the storm
You'll feel the poison of betrayal
Now I can hear the great liars
Prophets of falsehood and deceit
Claiming Christ to be just another man, Trinity denied
They can't see the noose. They will suffocate
Bestial diseases will kill, even those who try to find a cure
Entering the realms of demonic curse
Why do you insist on this vile path of extinction?
Ancient disasters are rising again to cause dispair
And nurture a hatred that was only heard from stories of old
Gomorrah's rebirth in these new times
Where confusion is seen in the form of crimes
Guided by a spirit of demise, and figures in the caves of dawn
Misguided you arise, with thorns of malice for mankind
Believer! Do not take the steps to death
Hold fast to your reward. Resist the calling of this world
I declare an Oath. Everlasting promise
To brutally serve The Master, even as I lay dying
Descending through the forest of emptiness
Riding against an army of millions
Filling the ranks were those who opposed
Clashing of swords and shields
Sacrifice lives against demonic forces, riding against us
Descending through the caverns of emptiness
Fighting against an army of millions
Bestial diseases will kill, even those who try to find a cure
Entering the realms of demonic curse
Why do you insist on this vile path of extinction?
Ancient disasters are rising again to cause despair
And nurture a hatred that was only heard from stories of old
Remember the day where evil submitted to God
Funeral Oath! Funeral Oath!
Funeral Ressurection! Funeral Oath
