lyrics
Seeking the gift a hero must travel into the darkness
Facing the gorgon serpents atop of her head
Fire glowing, the last thing, any of us shall see.
Frozen forever none have defeated an endless
Labyrinth of soldiers, all different poses
As if they not know of her power
Cold lifeless stone this is different
Armed with a weapon given to, him by the gods
Cape makes him vanish so quick, sandals take flight
Shield as reflective as water at night
Now he must face her no turning back never staring
Directly at her reflection is harmless strike the
Witch black blood mists, the air
Serpents still slither hair, head hits the ground
Eyes, remain open so wide.
Facing the gorgon serpents atop of her head
Fire glowing, the last thing, any of us shall see.
Frozen forever none have defeated an endless
Labyrinth of soldiers, all different poses
As if they not know of her power
Cold lifeless stone this is different
Armed with a weapon given to, him by the gods
Cape makes him vanish so quick, sandals take flight
Shield as reflective as water at night
Now he must face her no turning back never staring
Directly at her reflection is harmless strike the
Witch black blood mists, the air
Serpents still slither hair, head hits the ground
Eyes, remain open so wide.

Under A Western Sun
by Son of Aureliussupported by 29 fans who also own “Facing The Gorgon”
Finally found this album after so many years. I listened to it when it first came out, and almost a decade later it holds up so well. One of THE best albums I have listened to.

My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album. Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band. Love everything they produce.

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.
