INTRODUCTION
GRAVEWORM 은 어둡고 신비로운 메탈음악이 혼합된 멜로디사운드의 밴드이며 이들의 네 번째 앨범 "ENGRAVED IN BLACK" 은 최근 어떤 밴드도 보여주지 못한 GRAVEWORM 만의 극단적으로 성숙한 음악적인 단계를 선보여주고 있다. "ENGRAVED IN BLACK" 에는 이들의 공격성은 물론 넘치는 힘과 멜로디의 충격을 확신 지어 주고 있는데 이번 앨범은 의심할 여지없이 SATYRICON 의 NEMISIS DIVINA, DIMMU BORGIR 의 ENTHRONE DARKNESS TRIUMPHANT, CRADLE OF FILTH 의 THE PRINCIPLE OF EVIL MADE FLESH 같은 명반의 대열에 합류되어야만 할 것이다. 청자들 모두 진심으로 이들의 놀라운 기운을 발견하여 느껴보기 바란다!!
GRAVEWORM 이 어떤 데모도 발매하기 이전에 자신들의 고향 BRUNICO 인접지역 에서 의 놀라운 공연으로 SERENADES RECORDS 와 계약을 맺었고 이후 즉시 발매된 데모 앨범은 이미 데뷔 앨범 "WHEN DAY LIGHT'S GONE" 에도 수록된바 있는 전설적인 "ETERNAL WINDS", "WHEN THE SKY TURNS BLACK" 를 담고 있는데 고딕메탈의 숨결 이상을 담고 있는 이들의 훌륭한 데뷔 앨범은 전 언더그라운드씬에서 거대한 관심을 불러 일으키기도 하였다. 이어 CRE MATORY, THERION, LAKE OF TEARS 와의 투어를 통해 GRAVEWORM 자신들의 장대한 마력을 확연히 증명할 수 있었고 투어를 마친 즉시 MCD "UNDERNEATH THE CRE- SCENT MOON" 을 발매하게 되는데 여기에는 "AWAITING THE SHININ" 은 물론 이들의 클래식 "AWAKE" 에서 CRADLE OF FILTH, THERION 에 참여했음은 물론 투어이후 이들의 절친한 친구로 자리한 SARAH JEZEBLE 의 목소리를 들을 수 있기도 하다.
"AWAITING THE SHININ" 이 비디오 클립으로 제작되기도 하였는데 이탈리아 국영 TV 가 HAGGARD 와 여러밴드들과 함께했던 THE SERENADES RECORDS FETIVAL 에서 연주했던 당시의 상황들을 다큐멘터리형식으로 완성하여 함꼐 수록되기도 하였다. GRAVEWORM 은 이후 많은 인기를 얻게 됨은 물론 1998년 WACKEN FESTIVAL에 참여하게 된 동시에 1999년 발매된 두 번째 앨범 "AS THE ANGEL REACHED THE BEAUTY" 를 위한 작곡에 몰두하면서 앨범 발매 후, MYSTIC CIRCLE, STORMLORD, SUIDAKRA 와의 독일투어를 가지게 되는데 AGATHODAIMON, SIEBENBUR- GEN 과의 유럽투어, WAVE GOTIK TRFFEN" 등과 같은 페스티발에도 모습을 드러내기도 하였다.
2001년, GRAVEWORM 역사상 가장 야만적이면서 IRON MAIDEN 의 "FEAR OF DARK" 의 커버곡을 담고 있는 (현재 "TRIBUTE TO THE BEAST 2" 컴필레이션 앨범에 수록 되어 있기도 함) "SCOURGE OF MALICE" 가 발매되면서 VINTERSORG 와 DORNENREICH, DARKWELL 을 서포트로 기용한 자신들의 첫 헤드라 이닝 투어를 갖게 되는데 이는 매우 성공적이었음은 물론 이들은 곧 이어 "SUMMER BREEZE FESTIVAL 2001", 2002년 "BADIA ROCKS" 에서의 헤드라이너 공연을 갖기도 하였다. 이후 GRAVEWORM 은 NUCLEAR BLAST 와 계약을 체결하고 네 번째 앨범 "ENGRAVED IN BLACK" 의 작업을 시작하게 되었는데 이번 앨범은 DIE APO KALYPTISCHEN REITER 등으로 유명한 ANDY CLASSEN 과 함께 AT STAGE ONE STUDIO 에서 2003년 3월/4월에 작업되었고 전작들에 비교 했을 떄 여느 앨범보다 더욱 헤비해지고 강력해졌음은 물론 GRAVEWORM 의 트레이드 마크를 고스란히 간직하고 있기도 하다. 보컬리스트 STEFAN FIORI 는 자신의 인생을 위험으로 몰아넣을 정도로 그로울링과 샤우팅을 동시에 해내고 있으며 "LEGIONS UNLEASHED", "RENASSANCE IN BLOOD" 와 같은 곡은 어떤 이탈리아밴드들보다 훌륭한 최고의 곡으로 이미 손꼽히고 있기도 한데 여러분 모두는 이들의 사운드에 담긴 강력한 힘을 경험할 수 있을 것이다.
이번 앨범에서 GRAVEWORM 은 PET SHOP BOYS 의 IT'S A SIN 과 TYPE O'NEGATIVE의 CHRISTIAN WOMAN을 커버하여 보너스트랙으로 싣고 있으며 마지막으로, GRAVEWORM 은 정상을 향해 질주하고 있으며 이것이 바로 우리모두가 갈망하며 듣기 원하는 사실인 동시에 이들은 충분한 가치를 지니고 있다. ....  ....

(Music and Lyrics by Graveworm)
Moment of silence - blackened my eyes
Come through your dreams - voices from beyond
Call your name - invoke your pain
Guardian angel sleep - tears in their eyes
Deep from the shadows - the shadows arrives
While the wall of glasses reaches the sky
See the death in your eyes
I feel how my strength is growing
I wait for the dawn to come
The earth of mankind is bleeding
For the last sentence of mortal life
Emptiness, fear and despair
Shadows move where light should be
Feel and see this dying world
Through demon eyes I cry - cry!
Through demon eyes I die - die!
By life betrayed to endless sleep
To live without a dream
Once stands straight with faith and pride
Now drenched in blood I lay
Dark dreams of the past, calling back to me
Shadows that embrace me, with wings of frozen fear
Hear the silent whispers, which makes my dream come true
Feel the darkest velvet, breath between the dreams
When the veil of death covers up your mind
Once again the path of dark painted in blood
Kill or be killed, live for the ancient ones
Guardian angel found their end
As blood rains from the sky
Demons on the ancient world
Sacrifice their soul
Across the waves the dragons fly
Bringing the evil sight
See the fearsome death
Reflecting in your eyes

I crying to the night - Legions unleashed!!!!
Screaming in pain, spitting the blood to the god
Destruction of the dying has begun
Forces of evil, raise the sword to the sky
Fire in the night, the demons arrived
In the arms of the ancient beast
Fire, death and fear
The darkness spread their wings of death
The horned one implore
The legions waked up from the graves
To be unleashed by their clame
Demon of the ancient world
Invading darkest skies
Forest whispers laments of pain
Blood flows on the ground
Fear, the only way to see
The essence of life ends
Breathe the stench of buried soul
Pleasure of the death
When the stars falls like tears from the sky
Devoted to the powers of black northern might
Wolves howl to honour the moon
Awaits the reign of dark
Creatures of the night arrived
Embraced by darkest might
Blood their only trace to kill
Between the dreams they ride
Marches straight to end the life
Mankind of foible faith
Beyond the temple of the lost
Arrival of plague and death
The garden withered into dust
Might of spell take life
Nocturnal eyes reflects the flames
Ancient race of the gods
Masterpiece of destruction
The agony and pain
The end of the world begun
The time has come: Legions unleashed

[Music and Lyrics by Graveworm]
Bleed for the death
From the river of pain
And the stream of fear
Another fight for revenge
Marching to the lines
Buried in dust
Only death remains
Sacrifice, death for human race
The end of all life
Covered in blood
The coming of destruction
Deadly touch of hell
Mist of the dawn
Revel in flesh
A wind of powers blows from the sky
Raging fury, the enemy arrives
Riding straight with
hate in their soul
PAIN - Renaissance in blood
Blood will flow, screams in the sky
Fire enlightens the blackest night
The gates of the damned
opened their arms
DIE - Renaissance in blood
Bleed for the death
From the river of pain
And the stream of fear
Another fight for revenge
Marching to the lines
Buried in dust
Only death remains
Sacrifice, death for human race
The end of all life
Covered in blood
The coming of destruction
Deadly touch of hell
Mist of the dawn
Revel in flesh
A field of frozen tears remains
Darkness reigns the crumbling sky
The storm of death
screams for revenge
FEAR - Renaissance in blood
Shadows and dust lies on the ground
Across the sky they are flying high
And soon the world will cease to be
DIE - Renaissance in blood

(Music and Lyrics by Graveworm)
Dark powers manifest
Spiteful horrors crush the sky
Escape from the twilight of a blackened mind
Blood of our enemies
As time shows no change
Embrace by the veil of malicious death
A story told of suffering, blood and pain
Screaming of hate the demons now descend
Smell of dying flowers
Enchanted voices dies
War cry from the darkness, loud and weird
Resistance of mankind
A small flame of hope
Show no mercy, the time has come to fight
The world is dying and here we all die
Screaming, crying, fighting with fear
Into silent shadows
From nowhere to the deep
While the wicked soul are still crying in despair
Children of the night
They shall rise again
Shining like the blood of forgotten unlight
By nocturnal powers fall into the abyss
Slaves of gods - prepare to die
Prepare to die
Darkness hold the secrets of every human fear
Beside the ancient lake - beneath the spelling moon
Prophecies in blood - thunderstorm and rain
Across the field of burial ground
Storm of death swept away defence
Fight for the truth, die for the faith
Damned in fear, fall into the depths
They coming again and again
For victory we ride
Revenge of our land
The time when we will strike back
With swords in our hand
With straight in our heart
Again we march side by side
Remember the last breath
Of killed human friends
Remember the pain in their eyes
For revenge of their life
We fight until the end
With honour and pride we die

[Music and Lyrics by Graveworm]
Turned to the hours of deepest despair
Ancient mystic world surrounds my mind
Hear the sweetest symphonies, betrayed by own dreams
Temptation of the beauty, I have tasted her tears
I?ve tasted her tears
She filled my dreams, surrounds be her grace
The gift of their life runs slowly through my veins
By darkness seducted, her cold veil of death
Malicious beauty, obsession of my sins
Craving hands crawls in my neck
I reached the throne of death
I kiss and embrace the dreaming
Devils dance by her side
Embrace the flowers of fall
Drops of blood falls from my hand
I hear the song of the dying ones
Rapes my sin of life
I feel the end of life
Your look stained my soul
I see the dance of flames
Losing my existence
I see the darkness falling on my skin
The cold hand of the beauty might
The claws of death crushes my mind
I raise my hands toward the sky
The kiss of my life and the kiss of my death
Embraced by the stigma of her sweetest voice
Bewitched the sense of the faith to my god
Disarmed the fear of all pain have to come

(Pet Shop Boys Cover)
As I look back upon my life..
it's always with a sense of shame..
I've always been the one to blame...
For everything I long to do..
no matter when or where or who..
has one thing in common too..
it's a.. it's a.. it's a.... it's a sin....
it's a sin..
My father taught me how to be
So pure of thought.. and word and deed..
he didn't quite succeed........
for everything I long to do..
no matter when or where or who..
has one thing in common too..
it's a.. it's a.. it's a....... it's a sin...
everything I've ever done..
everything I'll ever do
everyplace I've ever been..
everywhere I'm going to........
it's a sin.....
Father forgive me...
I tried not to do it....
Turned over a new leaf...
then tore right through it...
Whatever you taught me...
I didn't believe it...
Father you fought me..
cuz I didn't care.. and I still don't.. understand.......
Now as I look back upon my life..
it's always with a sense of shame..
I've always been the one to blame..
for everything I long to do..
no matter when or where or who..
has one thing in common too..
it's a.. it's a.. it's a......... it's a sin...
it's a sin....
everything I've ever done..
everything I'll ever do..
every place I've ever been..
everywhere I'm going to.....
it's a sin...
it's a sin...

(Spoken) Forgive her...
For she knows not what she does...
A cross upon her bedroom wall
From grace she will fall
An image burning in her mind
And between her thighs
A dying God-man full of pain
When will you come again?
Before him, beg to serve or please
On your back or knees
There's no forgiveness for her sins
Prefers punishment?
Would you suffer eternally
Or internally?
For her lust
She'll burn in Hell
Her soul done medium well
All through mass manual stimulation
Salvation
Body of Christ
She needs
Body of Christ
The body of Christ
She'd like to know God
Ooh, love God
Feel her god
Inside of her - deep inside of her
Jesus Christ looks like me

REVIEWTrackback :: http://d2.maniadb.com/trackback/A122845
미학에서 '부정미'의 속성들 중 하나인 이형성에 해당하는 염오(厭惡-야만·사물·잔인)의 세계가 음악으로 표현된 것이 데쓰메틀이라면 블랙메틀은 사악(邪惡-죄악·요괴·극악)의 구현이었다. 이것은 하나의 미학적인 이해와 기호의 문제이지 가치판단에 의해 재단될 성질의 것이 아니다. 그런데 야만적인 수성(獸性)을 간직한 블랙메틀의 원형과 일반에게 통하는 아름다움의 요소를 적절하게 결합시켰던 소위 멜로딕/심포닉 블랙메틀은, 사악한 세계에 보다 통념적인 아름다움을 가미하는 방식으로 표현영역을 확장시켰고 불과 4~5년 사이 급부상한 그레이브웜(Graveworm)은 어느새 그러한 스타일에서 중요한 밴드로 자리잡고 있다. - 여기에서 '진정한' 블랙메틀에 대한 논의로 들어가는 것은 태도와 기준의 문제이기에 의미가 없고, 그런...
