Glacial Veil - ( Ambient Black Metal, Blackgaze, Atmospheric)

[Intro] (Winter wind howls, distant wolf call, rustling bare branches) [Verse 1] Frost-laden breath, a spectral sigh Whispers coil 'round mountains high Ancient pines guard the silent deep Where shadows wake and secrets sleep Bare limbs scrape the iron sky A world beneath the storm draws nigh [Chorus] Through the glacial veil! (Faint choir echoes) Paths unseen, where old winds wail! (Faint choir echoes) A shift in the bones of earth revealed! Into the white, all truths concealed! [Verse 2] Footprints vanish in driven snow A weight descends, a chilling glow The summit's edge, a yawning rift Familiar warmth begins to drift Echoes of self, the blizzard claims Forged anew in frozen flames [Chorus] Through the glacial veil! (Faint choir echoes) Paths unseen, where old winds wail! (Faint choir echoes) A shift in the bones of earth revealed! Into the white, all truths concealed! [Guitar Solo] (Heavily distorted, over-driven tremolo melody cuts through the blizzard, melancholic yet fierce) (Wolf howl punctuates the solo's peak) [Interlude] (Blast beats subside momentarily into a swirling ambient synth pad, layered with subtle, high-pitched bird calls (eagle/hawk), distant deer snort, wind intensifies) [Verse 3] No turning back from this expanse The cold embrace, the final trance Stars pierce the veil, ice-bound and stark A journey etched in frozen dark Dissolve the form, the spirit flies Beneath the vast, uncaring skies [Chorus] Through the glacial veil! (Faint choir echoes) Paths unseen, where old winds wail! (Faint choir echoes) A shift in the bones of earth revealed! Into the white, all truths concealed! [Outro] (Blast beats and tremolo guitars fade gradually into sustained synth drones, wind returns dominant, final rustle of branches, distant bird call fades) (The sense of vast, cold emptiness remains)
