Solitude and Sin An unparalleled beauty, a black sky twinkling with light; I first discovered the band/album through someone a year or two ago and it moved me, tears have fallen multiple times, it's so powerful and emotive. The first song I heard was Starforger and certainly the stand out song. This morning I write to "Void Essence / Frozen Tears, all the tracks are potent and mesmerising 💫

1.
Sing a starlight eulogy Before a mass grave Spirits weave in harmony Resounding softly As I disintegrate
2.
I am the altered, the origin I am the afterimage I am the antimatter 

I am the altered, the origin
 I am the divine pillar of creation 
I am the afterimage I am the antimatter 
I am the void personified
 I am the ancient shadow Starlight carry me To the other side Where I may silently Gaze upon the old world
 This is that where all life flourishes
 This is that where life has faded A place where two worlds overlap
 I hold the fires of a newborn star 
Ignite the pyre as a new Heaven is forged Sing a starlight eulogy 
Before a mass grave For all the souls you led astray
3.
Of moon and sun, a silence profound No echoes, only shadows of sound 
Raised in your embrace A nurtured ember 
Into a blaze A whispered wonder
 Glows from afar From kindled cinder A newborn star Rests in your palms Bright, a breath of light The skies descend in dead of night High, in astral flight
 A grain of sand in the vast desert of time
4.
“Void Essence”

 Unending crystal gleam
 Of holographic deities Empyreal decay
 Torrential divine cascade
 Stars dissolve in a particle sea 

Unending fractal dreams 
Far beyond the wall of sleep
 Spiralling evermore
 Through infinite corridors 
I dissolve in the cosmic stream

 “Frozen Tears”
 This will be the last time I’ll cry How long have I yearned to say goodbye I’ve let go of all that I know The winter embracing my soul The tears, they fall and turn to ice And brush against the mountainsides Cascading walls of frozen woe Bury me beneath the snow
5.
How do I know Where my soul will go Hollow my bones To wander evermore in the unknown Cradle me in the hand of God Spirit departs into the starlit beyond

about

UNREQVITED mastermind 鬼 (Ghost) has a penchant for beautiful musical creations that reveal their claws and fangs only at closer inspection after spending some time on them. This solo project is firmly rooted in blackgaze sonic soil but has also sent out tendrils into ambient, post-rock, post-black metal, and other related stylistic strata. The seventh album, "A Pathway to the Moon", is taking an impressive evolutionary leap. One element of this significant sonic development of UNREQVITED is the novel exploration into a predominantly lyrical realm. This step away from mostly expansive soundscapes towards more singing is also due to the transition of UNREQVITED into a touring band. 鬼 carefully crafted "A Pathway to the Moon" with live performances in his mind. The result is an album that resembles a blackgaze soundtrack – a legacy further underlined by the artbook bonus track, which features a cover of the Hans Zimmer "Interstellar" composition 'Cornfield Chase'. Despite the divergence into more lyrical dimensions, "A Pathway to the Moon" keeps the use of lighter and more uplifting passages that were increasingly employed among the expected dark twists on "Beautiful Ghosts" (2021). The significant use of clean vocals throughout the album turns out in hindsight as writing on the wall about developments to come. The core elements that have shaped UNREQVITED in the past remain in active service as well: Thus, the massive anthemic refrains from "Mosaic I: l'amour et l'ardeur" (2018) are equally present as the simple melancholic melodies from the 2016 debut album "Disquiet" and the orchestral grandeur of "Empathica" (2020). Ever since 鬼 conceived UNREQVITED as the musical vehicle for his multi-faceted creative output and brought it to light in 2016, his project has been a constantly shape-shifting and stylistically wide roaming beast. With "A Pathway to the Moon", the Canadian has once again gathered the strands of his previous works but he has also taken a creative leap of faith. "A Pathway to the Moon" takes UNREQVITED closer to a traditional rock and metal album based on songs than ever before – yet it is also the soundtrack of a most fascinating sonic journey.
