Searching for the cosmic crypt Grab the chalice and take a sip Surrounded by the ancient eye Blinded by desire Life is a panopticon Living out with lack of options From the mystic bowels of the caves Worlds are hiding under a big black veil Surrounded by the ancient eye Blinded by desire Life is a panopticon Living out with lack of options (disciples - those who are trying to prepare themselves for entry into the Evolutionary Level Above Human, synonymous with the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of Heaven) You can’t escape my sight For I’ve reached for you in the night

Unlock the gates Assimilate, it's not too late And you'll have to find the lies in their words Destroy their fates Eliminate, it's not too late And you'll have to find the lies in this world Unlock the gates, it's not too late Just follow the path that leads Into the unknown, we will see Into the unknown, we will reveal Diamonds and gems It's not for us, it's for them It's for the goblins in their profane caves Unlock the gates, it's not too late Just follow the path that leads Into the unknown, we will see Into the unknown, we will reveal And you will find (and you will find) And you will find (and you will find) Brighten your mind (brighten your mind) Brighten your mind (brighten your mind) Unlock the gates, it's not too late Just follow the path that leads Into the unknown, we will see Into the unknown, we will reveal And you will find (and you will find) And you will find (and you will find) Brighten your mind (brighten your mind) Brighten your mind (brighten your mind)

Funguss 03:22
Pixelized castles and wavy plains Two-headed cattles, the sky is in flames I empty my lungs from air, spit out the disease Feasting on fungus, my pain I’ve released Fungus, magic spores Fungus, magic spores of the gods Come back in the lair of the wisdom seers Bring your world in flames Tonight the world is crystal clear Bring it down in flames Fungus, magic spores Fungus, magic spores of the gods Come back in the lair of the wisdom seers Bring your world in flames Tonight the world is crystal clear Bring it down in flames

The Wizard 03:42
A mage is coming with a purple cape He climbs the tower of endless stairs He whipped the sun and it went down In the slimy sea where it now drowns Summoned in a secret alphabet Skeletons from the other side of the gates A curse fell upon this land The dead arrived but together we stand Comets are falling from the sky Fire from dragons burning in our eyes The horizon has been lost The portal must be closed Knights are fighting on the green velvet hills Rubies are laying everywhere on the field The path is clear, far further we can go Close your eyes, rise above the vile Comets are falling from the sky Fire from dragons burning in our eyes The horizon has been lost The portal must be closed He climbs the tower of endless stairs He whipped the sun and it went down In the slimy sea where it now drowns But in the end, rise and shine Rise above all like a sun in the night

The Reborn 04:31
I had to go far away Where there’s no light of the day In the oceans unknown Waving the sail to an unknown place I don’t know In the neons bright light sea I had to go far aways, I had to go far astray Symbols been shattered down The glory has been deceived again Where’s the meaning now? Where’s the hope now? Magic winds take us to the shore Singing as we come Put your sword high in the sky Cause tonight they will die For the traitors we will set the rope May the golden flickering sun of hope Reborn in the night Put your swords high in the sky Cause tonight they will die, they will die Reborn in the sky Oh mighty black sun Reborn in the sky Oh mighty black sun In the neons bright light sea I had to go far aways, I had to go far astray Symbols has been shattered down The glory has been deceived again Where’s the meaning now? Where’s the hope now?

Dark Lord 05:28
The sword of the dark lord was made from a horde Of shape-shifting black knights, demons of the night Oh dark lord You are the master of the night Oh dark lord Riding through the night Oh dark lord Your eyes are made of fire Oh dark lord Burning the funeral pyres He came to the land with a magic horse Galloping through the dark, oh mighty black force Oh dark lord You are the master of the night Oh dark lord Riding through the night Oh dark lord Your eyes are made of fire Oh dark lord Burning the funeral pyres Come back to the land oh mighty black lord He came from the sky, from another gate Come back to the land oh mighty black lord You’ll be honored with blood Come back to the land oh mighty black lord He came from the sky, from another gate Come back to the land oh mighty black lord You’ll be honored with blood Come back to the land oh mighty black lord He came from the sky, from another gate Come back to the land oh mighty black lord You’ll be honored with blood Come back to the land oh mighty black lord He came from the sky, from another gate Come back to the land oh mighty black lord You’ll be honored with blood

Two onyx eyes, without life Gave me sight An emerald sphere between the eyes Will leave me blind In the gaze of the beast In the gaze of the beast Will my heart darken if you can see in my eyes? Will I vanish in the depths or perish in the void? In the gaze of the beast In the gaze of the beast Will my heart darken if you can see in my eyes? Will I vanish in the depths or perish in the void? Will my heart darken if you can see in my eyes? Will I vanish in the depths or perish in the void? Or perish in the void?

I am here, in the flames Upon the clouds in the sky Crawling in your dreams You’ve opened your mind for me To get inside I’m the shadow of your night The ghost that you forget the next day I’m the monster, I’m the traitors, I’m the stains of your memories The ghost that you forget the next day I’m the specter, the watchful eye That reached for you in the dark I’m the murderer, the hungry phantom that feast on thee I’m the shadow of your night The ghost that you forget the next day I’m the monster, I’m the traitors, I’m the stains of your memories The ghost that you forget the next day And the promises are broken Our love has been torn apart

about

The Gates play „Magik Metal“, combining their own brilliant interpretation of old school Occult Rock and Psychedelic Metal with additional Black Metal vocals. Visually, they use classic psych imagery such as colourful artwork and magic mushrooms in combination with occult symbols and occasional nods to the Nazisploitation movies of the 70s (which are to be understood as a tribute to old school B-movies and cult flicks and nothing else), while their lyrics also focus on classic forms of occultism and psychedelic experiences.

Seemingly out of nowhere they delivered with "...of Pandemonium" an absolute killer album full of occult hymns that is sure to find many fans and has the potential to become a real classic.

Outside the relatively new but steadily growing Magick Metal sub-genre the music of The Gates should appeal the most to fans of the old school Occult Rock of Coven, The Devil’s Blood or Year of the Goat and occult Heavy Metal such as Mercyful Fate or Ghost, and has to be classified as highly addictive!

The European pressing of the CD comes in jewel case with an undisclosed limitation. Strictly limited collector’s editions and various merchandise will also be available directly from Northern Silence and selected partners. Northern Silence will also release the European LP editions in late 2022, planned on coloured as well as classic black vinyl, including posters and free stickers.
