yeah it's catchy as fuck.



I would guess he is saying that in the end our lives are reduced to nothing more than ashes in an urn. Maybe he was looking at an urn one day and thought, well, that's life.

I think he meant that life rests upon James Hetfield.

i'd say if the spelling is mantle, then he was likely talking about the the brittleness/fragility of life, since a clay urn would dry up, harden, then crack when exposed to heat like that



or it could just be some catchy bullshit, too

First thing I ever heard from Agalloch was 'you were but a ghost in my arms'.



When the vocals kicked in on that one I new this shit was going to be something else entirely.

There's far worse things you could be spending your time on, pop in the headphones and go for a wintry stroll

yeah it's good. the remaster for this one in particular is a lot clearer and 'brighter;' compressed but not quite into oblivion. i prefer it.
