Chants of Evil The Visions of the Breathing Darkness A Photobook on the Art of Black Metal by Chérie, Metalphoto (European performances) Featuring Chris Slack Gravemusic (North American performances) Hear the voice of the Bard ! Who present, past, and future sees; Whose ears have heard The Holy Word, That walked among the ancient trees, Calling the lapsed soul, And weeping in the evening dew; That might control The starry pole, And fallen, fallen, light renew!
