You kindled desire in me
Dirty and reckless
I followed you down a very narrow lane
Rough walls grazed my arms
A fire suddenly started behind me
I was cut off
No way to turn back anymore
Flames pushed me on to you
Charring all hope in my heart
Coils of smoke take my breath away
Acrid smell strings my throat
The world grows distant and dark
Again I am all alone
Just like I was before
In flame I shall be purified
In flame I shall exult
I’d rather let them consume me
Than feel my insides turn to stone
I touch the dancing red
The pain is merely a whisper
On tips of flames I rise
Right into the sublime
Blaze, blaze, the great blaze
And once this is over
Once the great blaze
Within and without is spent
Once I explode and passion is no more
I shall become scattered
Into memories and star dust

Well-established Finnish post-folk metal with a talented lady musician behind the concept, with devilish goth look, the voice of an angel and the growls of a demon. Really love the contrasting duality ever present here, it's so different than a "typical" folk band. This is still very special, and the atmosphere created by Vermilia is not the classic Finnish extreme metal, but still a captivating and immersive sound. This is an incredibly impressive album !! sachavonkarl74

Beautiful, haunting, and incredibly engaging. I'm listening to this and looking out the window at snow falling -what could be more perfect?
An incredible record; highly recommended. It's truly beautiful, and that's not a word I often use for metal, but this is powerful stuff. somethingsomething9
