THE REVIEW

Greedy creature, consumes the pain scattered among rubble turned into red dust. The anguish, the fear are heard in the bowels of darkness, dark entities cloud over insidiously exempting the curse of the mind and existence itself. Outside the walls, ancient treachery hides wandering in the timid land, which elevates man beyond himself.

"Saw You Drow" is a delicate entity, a hunger for fallacious whispering wrapped in the soul. Blasphemous worm gnaws at the murky nights. The minutes, hours, time are lost consumed by vain hopes, a pious heretic shines in the jaws of the darkness of the waning moon. The pure beauty of his figure appears to our eyes his garments, tormented by oblivion and shadow. Impious in his being, he wavers in the grim silence of indecipherable knowledge, his art is welded in the ardor of the individual's core. The chapters flow greedily, clumsy and frail, painting a landscape adorned by the starry pages of the night. Deep and slow arpeggios animate the romantic loggia of clear nature. The metamorphosis of sound reflects the fear generated by the acrimony of man. The same violent, wicked, perverse, gloomy, unjust, trivial, wicked man, scourge of God, murky with his damnation. The reality turned into a prison, a jail of perceptions stimulated by the void, the abyss that hides is ruthless.

When pain vanishes in prostration, it dissolves futilely into the abyss, vainly it spreads in the funereal affliction of blood....
