Kus Pääva Iedõ Magub
(Where the Sun Sleeps at Nights)
Mina tiedub, bet äb kiit
kus pääva iedõ magub:
tiva mier sidamõs
sangdõ kuuzõ tutkamõs.
The title of the song is from an old Livonian herdsman's poem/song
about sunset. The narrator of the poem says they know where the Sun
sleeps but won't tell it. The answer is hinted to be somewhere deep in
the sea or at the top of a tall spruce tree.
Livonian language is critically endangered as the last known native speaker
died in 2013. However, a couple Livonian language revival activists had
a child in 2020 who is reported to be a native speaker. In any case,
the total amount of Livonian speakers of any skill level in the entire world
is well under 500.
Livonian is the only pitch-accent language in the Finno-Ugric family.
In pitch-accent languages one syllable in the word is marked with a
change in pitch. Other languages using pitch-accent include Norwegian,
Swedish, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Ancient Greek etc. Note: not to be
mistaken with tonal languages such as Chinese or Vietnamese.
Lyrics trad., recorded from Lot Lindenberg by O. Loorits in 1934

Atmospheric Black Metal from the heart of Siberia. Grima is a band that paints one hell of a picture with their music. Intense shrieking vocals echo behind such awesome instrumentals.
Leaves you feeling the bitter cold winds of a desolate snowscape. Abyssius Murkraken

This album is incredible. A perfect embodiment of those northern winds piercing you to the heart. I'm convinced these riffs could move glaciers. 𝔅𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔰 ॐ 𝔄𝔟𝔶𝔰𝔰

I've recently spent a lot of time looking for new black metal that would be moving without sacrificing to cheesy tropes. Olde Throne is by far my best find. The sound is perfect, raw and brutal, epic and gripping. This album is filled with memorable moments of glory (that powerful transition to the riff at the beginning of Cliffs of Culzean, the guitars in Greyfriars Kirkyard...). In the Land of Ghosts definitely possesses the eternal beauty of classics. A must have for all BM fans, trust me! Seb
