The Call 05:02
Lost within this desolate place Cursed, I grieve... An Island, cold, I wander alone, adrift, without wings A flickering flame Devoured by night Sinking Beneath an Ocean of stars Bewitching desires Shining so bright Pearls of darkness Extinguishing life Like angels in a starless night/sky Their song will be your doom Their sweet abyss is calling me... home
2.
Hollows Eve 04:38
Through the gates of Hell he rides With the serpent mist curling higher Dark terror, gripping the sky The eternal curse alive Pace of death upon your neck His black heart beats tonight A sunset spell, his morbid tale Rose, bones and bloodied steel Ride oh lord of death Harbinger of the end Hunter without eyes His maze of death a helpless quest Your blood will spill tonight In slithering fear paralyzed With the glint of steel rising higher The path to Hell burning bright…
3.
Shadows freeze as she glides between The moonlight cries, the sun will bleed The grace of god remains unseen In bitter rain the reaper seeks… Drifting through these gloomy streets Biting flesh, the fatal breeze Her chilling kiss, erased all dreams At the doorway of eternal sleep Beneath the veil, the past alive A raven kiss, her eyes of fire Darkness reaps the souls deceived The fading star of life has ceased And in this bitter rain Salvation Weeps The Ghost of Dawn, deceitful dream Tamora smiles, the coffin creaks Betrothed to Darkness, the moonlight queen For all eternity

cries of war, where death is born, cuts through the air alive this battle call, (they’ve) heard before, so glorious, their bloodied faces smile in chilling rage and blood they bathed fearlessly they fell, Axes striking skull The honour of the fallen, Under sun or moon No sanctuary for warriors Ocean skies, wash their wounds Victory is calling or serenades doom! As bodies fall before you Broken, slain and skewed Cursed time repeating Spirits are renewed The fields of blood call forth What shadow stands in you?
6.
Darkness simpers I shiver in glee Charon’s price his mortal fee Where souls are lost And cursed to freeze... Cold winds cry and choke their screams endless like the sea Deep, her beauty, Carries me Her arms out stretched my icy queen I see the weary, the ones without dreams, Eternally caged, chained at her feet I’ve crossed the river and fields of dreams I’ve entered her walls And now we see, my gift my gift is… death My soul now yearns for it’s return to the Kingdom of the lost Elysium I leave in ruins My wickedness exult Tartarus!
7.
Through castle walls, he calls to her... Long lost spirit, return! With blood bequeathed [With a bloody feast] in Karnstein’s keep, Mircalla’s soul reborn Reborn! Each moon arise The eyes of night Of hunger and thirst, beguile Her shadow (is) cast on (these) crimson paths The blackest Dawn imbued... Baneful night, Come… Lay your beauty On me… ME! Oh, cloudless sky, carry the cry Reflect the mortal fall With listless sleep The mirror dreams A tortured lustful haze For innocence and piercing death The face, not fate, the same One final sunset tragedy, where fire calls her name… Again… Dark soul arise and take the night Inflict this mortal coil

The Absent Guests

Of The Mist 06:19
Winds of eternity wailing great tales of grief Unhallowed gallows beckoning, this corpse that walks beneath Thunder cracks above the call of anguish clear Ominous it lingers darkness drawing nearer Sorrows from the depth of life, In torment rise tonight, Your quivering lips the darkness kissed Howling, lightning strikes Summoned forth from black abyss this ancient terror creeps Upon the soul, the shadow falls Lament is all there’ll be… Of the mist upon the earth now walk Of the Mist Rage and hatred call Accursed call across the land Come nightfall and despair A heart that holds a key no more Still, empty coldness glares The silence breaks, fervour awake She celebrates She celebrates the end…

about

Palaces Of Dust is the debut of Dream Upon Tombs. Written buried in the Southern hills of Adelaide, it brings forth the darkness of 90s to the present day. The blackened, sorrowful melodies, bred within a doom-cursed aura, tell tales of triumph and agony in these 9 epic tracks.

about

Dream Upon Tombs Adelaide, Australia

Borne on winds of sorrow in 1997, Dream Upon Tombs - When mortality has been laid to rest. The streams of existence become a blood ocean, unto a distant shore - a land beyond time - unchartable, sought by many and ruled by none...
