    WHEN WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WERE TO BE EVICTED, AND THE CHURCH WAS TO BE TURNED INTO APARTMENTS, THE QUESTION ON OUR MINDS WAS “HOW DO WE SEND IT OFF?” QUICKLY, THE PLAN WAS HATCHED TO MAKE A FILM, DOCUMENTING THE SPACE, AND THE BANDS IT HELPED FORM. WE HAD LESS THAN THREE WEEKS. SWORDS RE-FORMED FOR THE OCCASION, AND BRONZE CHARIOT CAME BACK FROM THE BRINK OF BREAKING UP. UNFORTUNATELY, AT SUCH SHO...RT NOTICE, MANY GREAT BANDS WERE UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE. A CALL WAS PUT OUT TO OUR FRIENDS WITH THE SKILLS AND EQUIPMENT TO PULL IT ALL OFF. THE RESPONSE WAS FAR GREATER THAN WE COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED.

    EACH BAND PLAYED WITH CONVICTION AND SINCERITY, KNOWING IT WAS THEIR FINAL TIME ON THE HALLOWED STAGE. WHEN THE LAST NOTE WAS STRUCK AND THE FINAL FRAME CAPTURED, WE ASSEMBLED OUTSIDE TO TAKE A PHOTO ON THE STREET TO COMMEMORATE WHAT WE HAD JUST ACCOMPLISHED.

    ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED CONTINUED TO GENEROUSLY DONATE THEIR TIME AND EXPERTISE OVER THE FOLLOWING WEEKS. SOME WORKED TIRELESSLY TO COMPILE AND EDIT THE EXTENSIVE FOOTAGE AND PHOTOGRAPHS. OTHERS MIXED AND MASTERED THE AUDIO RECORDINGS, DESIGNED THE ARTWORK AND WROTE THIS PASSAGE.

    NOBODY GOT PAID, AND NOBODY ASKED TO BE. WE ALL HAD ONE GOAL: TO COMMEMORATE THE GREAT TIMES WE HAD, AND EVERYTHING WE ACHIEVED WITHIN THE GREAT STONE WALLS.

    WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THE FILM.

lyrics

He came over plains
Stretching out as one can see
There’s a trail of tombstones
And eulogies from howling dogs

His crooked unkept jaw
Whistles jingled cries
Its no myth oh there’s a reason
For devastation to be swaggering in
Town bells were ringing
Yet no damn fool listening
The doors they get right kicked in
There’s only one way to skin a dirty cat

Oh man rich and poor
Curse money they don’t need it no more
And awe marches it marches on and on
To level this shit hole into the ground
Here comes Nigredo

That look in his eyes looks a little too familiar
On cruel lonely nights I dream of Nigredo
