A Black Metal project from members of WOLVEN ANCESTRY. New tracks will be added on occasion. AMARANTH is written byLORD DEFILER, composed of riffs and structures written nearly 5 years ago and finally being recorded today with FRAUST performing percussion and ambience duties.
AMARANTH is a flower, derived from the Greek term Amarantos meaning one that does not wither, or the never fading. Lyrically focused on the cosmos and existence as a whole, including space, time, and some of my own predictions and theories. Warnings to modern society of a great new beginning of what would seem to us like an eternity. Yet all things must come to an end, just as they began for life is ever-cyclical in all measurements of matter and energy.
Take heed of my warning. The end is near, through storms and pole changes, plate movement, massive continental shifts, as we pass through the gravitational plain toward the sixth extinction.
Therefore, Amaranth represents the eternal. One who does not wither in time of our coming extinction in the very near future. The Mayans predicted it, and this secret has been kept contained since the time the first cell division began life in the deep abyss of newborn oceans. The creation and destruction of what we know as our beautiful planet and galaxy.
Fear not your death, for all is as one in the end. Only in death, will life continue to dream. As we exit the age of Pisces, we realize that all existence is similar to a mass body of water swirling in a unprecedented galactic whirlpool. We are lucky to be a part of it. Therefore, in dreams, find your answers. Only then will you be free...
