Eivør - Salt
For those that can understand Faroese.
Salt
The salt in my body
The ocean inside of me
An intoxicating tide
A current of aching
And the sea grows heavy
Every pull is abyss-bound
I know that I must leave
I know that I can
In sub-skin chasms
Surges my longing
Uproots time
Erodes my dread
Far from the shore
I glimpse faint memories
I let the heavy sea take me
I sense the tremor of the deep
The ocean swells in me
Is the salt in my tears
And the sea grows heavy
Every pull is abyss-bound
I know that I must leave
I know that I can

Damn! And I thought our Hindi film sings are full of flowery poetry bordering on the cheesy.
Could be worse I guess. Norwegian music is full of Satan and burning churches. The Black Metal (yes the same kind of music I like) scene in the 80s and 90s lead to some very high profile killings and dozens of Norway's oldest stave churches being burned to the ground.
Arcturus, Dimmu Borgir, Gorgoroth, Mayhem, Taake, Burzum, Darkthrone, they all set into motion what has become Black Metal.
Be thankful you're only flowery poetry and bordering on cheese.y.

I like some traditional, oldschool black metal from time to time - Limbonic Art, Old Man's Child, Nokturnal Mortem, Ceremonial Castings and the like, but I mostly listen to a more atmospheric style these days.
Well, Christianity didn't exactly spread in a peaceful manner in the Scandinavian countries, ya? So, I guess it's time for payback by the neopagans ya.Could be worse I guess.

Speaking of how bad it can get, have you heard this ya?
Shiva Tandava Stotram || Original Powerful & Best Trance
I think not. A brief background. This was supposed to have been composed by the demon king Ravan, thousands of years ago, in honour of his favorite diety - Shiva - one of the Hindu religion's holy Trinity. The reality is more mundane ya. The lyrics are definitely a millenium old if not more. The track is definitely EDM but Not a millennium old ya.
This happens to be recited by Tantra practioners ( not the EDM version ya) during their secretive rituals - also worshippers of Shiva but not exclusively so, most of whom in the times gone were known to practice human sacrifice to gain command over esoteric powers ya.Every once in a while, One still hears of human sacrifices, in the some remote corners of India and these tantriks ( tantra practioners) are either caught in the act or before or after it ya.
Another sect of Shiva worshippers are the Aghori - literally outcastes in orthdox society ya for their practises. In case you're interested ya.
