I was created by Nature
with the keenest of appetites
and the strongest of passions
I was put on this earth
with the sole purpose
of placating both by surrendering to them
Incidental effects essential to Her designs for me
Conform entirely to Her laws
Criminal in your eyes,
perfectly straightforward in mine
I repent only
not sufficiently acknowledging Her omnipotence
Blinded by the absurdity of your doctrines
I did at times resist Her
…and am heartily sorry for it.
I picked only flowers
when I could have harvested ripe fruits
Based upon the repentance of the dying man
Dialoque entre un prêtre et un moribond, 1782

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

This album is just 100/100, like so many albums from mgla. How can a band hit the spot so many times? They are incredible. Thank you for accompanying me almost daily these days :) adrianradillo

Tout est une question de perspective.
En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
