Sonorous Howl From Beyond The Stars
tyranny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As the sands stir uneasy with the cold of abysmal winds
Howling from nether-gulfs and from the onyx monuments of subterranean unholy caverns
Nighted winds of prehuman times still burdened with eerie voices of antediluvian aeons
Horrid ululations, echoes of precambrian dawn
Discordant keening without meaning or rhyme
Vast majestic sidereal fabric of universe resounds to the clarion
Echoes of creation
Echoes of before the beginning of time
From before the throne of Nuclear Chaos
The lyrics of Tyranny's "Sonorous Howl From Beyond The Stars" describe a haunting and eerie landscape - one that is obscured by the darkness of falling moon and haunted by ghoulish creatures who prowl in ashen deserts. In this desolate setting, the sands stir uneasily with the cold of abysmal winds, while howls emanate from nether-gulfs, onyx monuments, and subterranean unholy caverns. The winds of prehuman times still echo with eerie voices from the antediluvian aeons, and the horrid ululations are the echoes of the precambrian dawn. The howling, discordant keening is indescribable and without meaning or rhyme. It is the tune to which dance the formless idiot gods, and it echoes from before the throne of Nuclear Chaos.
The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a dark and foreboding landscape, and the use of imagery and unusual vocabulary creates a sense of mystery and awe. The reference to Nuclear Chaos is particularly striking, as it suggests a cosmic force that existed before the beginning of time - a force that is beyond human comprehension.
