Monia Lisa How I love finding hidden gems like this one!
Havengarth showcases such a wide spectrum of skills in this album that you won’t ever have time to get bored! The songwriting is unpredictable, full of surprises, with blistering rhythms and noteworthy melodies. The vocals are absolutely amazing, powerful and diversified, definitely what triggered my impulse buy.
This diamond is an incredible debut album, from a Finnish band that I will follow closely. Favorite track: The Ravening Wolves.

PKMetal Like Aephanemer, Havengarth has a special melodeath recipe that makes them notable in a subgenre I tend to find boring. These songs are dynamic and at 3-4 minutes they don't wear out their welcome or fall back on repetition. Production quality shines. Note to other bands: THIS is how you mix your death metal vocals! Favorite track: Under the Branches.

Haikeus 01:22
A brief wind of familiarity passed through the window The inner heart awoke Such ever-growing wistfulness Such a blinding decade The grown biding soul longed to resume the past fantasies The whistling door opened An axe to carry, heavy as the heart to return For the future, for the past Consciousness streams like autumn along the path
2.
Perseverance 03:03
Leave your weakness all behind A pathway paved afar, deep from your heart Feel it guiding by your sight An uncertainty pulling from the dark The tension is your fight See the fiery light To blaze your nightmares in the eye of the mind Bring the lost dreams to life To fight... Just keep on going Enchanted like a child Mythologise the unseen with dreams Walk towards the sun The hearth’s opened door Harmonies glitter all the way there Go on Sing this old song Walk to your hearth Go on Sing this old song Don’t change your heart You stepped afar, diverged from paths Just as your oblivious past Your soul is cold but your heart is warm Follow this inner voice Screaming in your bones since your pain awoke Hundred thousand steps, you are not alone Distract the feelings of your soul

Leaves on dirt Two feet above the paths No signs left to trace all the way Into this illustration Across these beamed lanterns Can’t you hear? High above gather birds Centre the brightest choir Walk and rise from the dirt Warm hands of sunshine Caressed your cold visage Step from this angelic touch Into the shadows and the cursed Can’t trust the false light Nothing but freezing darkness inside Focus straight Concentrate Under the branches Stems of my heart as dry The sky is covered Through comes flickering sunshine Don’t fall on dismay Foresee your truest light May you relish the display Along this treatment of a fear Ignite Even the dimmest light could reignite this heart My vision brightens me A new dreamlike world And I know... I will not fall down to the leaf-bed of death
4.
Down to an arid path Wolves await for another flesh Nesting this reddest heart Bleeding in the blackest shadows I can’t flee away This is the death calling I can’t bear the pain For the fear of falling But I will slay We are all animals We kill to survive Hit them in the throat Slash them like a knight We are all animals We heal to survive Dry wolf-veins by the throat Before it devours you Tired of fighting with you all I am invincible I am as ferocious as a warg I feel homesick for the moonlit glow I am as ravenous as you all Covered in blood An eye for an eye Your teeth and my blade Till the bitter end you can’t take
5.
Plagued and gone astray Maintain the light Block the vicious wind from taking it away Step into the frame of coldness Coated in unease Fear of stomping the pits of serpent Hidden behind the glories Moving forward in the wind Pulling over another breath Brave this pain, sacrifice Through the autumn wind Time will tell the reason why This is all worth it Catch your breath, you will see What future shall bring Cold wind soothes in golden leaves Let it fall as deep Take a deep breath The sharp poison will shed Off from digging these wounds You are far from your death Bleed homewards Under these obscure memories To confront Under these blood red dagger leaves And gone astray... Maintain the light Block the vicious wind from taking it away See the curtain unveils with the wind Cold breeze’s brushing, slowly raining Admire the beauty, such beautiful scenery

Unessa 01:10
Under a fluorescent tree you rest Await, the instincts shall revive in this nest
7.
Woodwork 04:03
Let it out Hold your axe high in the sky Knock them down Like the pictures broken in mind Hew the logs With the strength from your heavy heart Build the blocks Piece by piece in childhood memories How you built was coping with failures day by day To cross afield, a meticulous mind paves the way Build with your sweetest memories Nail alive what fell into decay Heal all your wounds with miseries and now Hail far to the northern edge Your creation is a belief Your decision is stronger than grief Fear no bleeding All it takes is undying guts Your fate is written, but concealed on the hull If your wishes are filled up to the gunwales Reality will sink you All you need is not to dream, but to risk what you build Puuhommia! As night falls, flip this curvy craft A shelter nap, stay for the dawn The wolves may come along your blood Breathe silently, drift in harmony Now evoke your nostalgic dreams Sleep Let go from fear And dive into timelessness The crying wind Through the wounds between the frames of my shield Covered in a long cloth I sleep deaf
8.
Depart the restful shore Pass the grief-soothing tides Head up from the low spirits Grip the oar high and tight Open your eyes Awake, frozen soul Cope in this wounded boat Out alive from the journal left behind But in your sight evokes the page You can’t hide, it’s in your sight Still looking far... You could only lie again in tired eyes Faced to the void All these thoughts seem to sink awry All what stays Behind closed eyes Slowly fading From brightened vision Under a new light Where you’re caged is an illusion Break away to what’s envisioned Float straight, rigid soul Hold onto this torch The dark is nigh Sky the oar high Spade away the mirrored truth Your lost remains In the mist you will soon find Head up Row forward You will find

The Upheaval 04:38
Winds of terror flee beside An abyss draws near from behind The nokk started screaming your name You left the bloody steel, it's too late Oh aloof sea What have I done to deserve this cruel agony? A future crumbling Like your past was failing To overcome everything You must dive against the swells of upheaval Sacrifice in waves Now listen... Rise! You can pull the sky Don’t let the darkness pull your legs Calm here as the paradise Rise! Fragments of hope to climb Don’t let the fear push you away Down deep to sacrifice Pick up the pieces Before all hope is gone Ignite your heart in this bone-chilling Niflheim So you lay on the frame Below a formless void Slowly sinking skywards You start to see the sky is hazing... It’s hazing over in a dreamlike heaven I’m floating skywards to a mist of existence But I shall shift away On placid waves My eyes opened wide and I’m leaving the gate
10.
Couldn’t tell Whether it’s an eternal dream or reality Couldn’t tell Did I reach the end or is this the beginning Near a shore, you rise Weightless, barely conscious Painted paths for my dark vision In my imagination Gripped by the wind, you glide Wander along the traces Am I free from the tension? Or am I an apparition? Can’t hold a candle to find illumination The light, far forgotten in the ocean Is this how it all was meant to be? Chasing towards the beginning? No future was left to see Or maybe, too tired to believe The lake reflects a figure of a child Still see myself as an ethereal soul Sweet wind carries me back home Remembered all these traces To the solitude of closure Between life and death May you trust a dream once again May this dream make peace within Muistikuvassa olin täysin tyyni Kun peilikuvassa näkyy ovi Kotipolulla olen täysin tyyni Kun niityn takana näkyy ovi

Walking under the golden sky I’ve stepped to the garden of time Starting in the eyes of a child Slowly kneeling down Caressing the poison spikes Wistful eyes sorrow the beauty Of the oblivious bliss The beauty... Drown me into these memories Heart falls, soul lifts In leaves I rest I can see the clouds melting downwards My vision’s so bright Consciousness blurred Pull my hand Down the soil planted To forget my embedded plight Rain in the wilting garden Heals us from what we have all yearned Forever
13.
Walk forward In these voices of early joy To the open door Forget this inner voice Remember all as songs This is all where I belong
