lyrics

Mother Snake, Mother Snake,
Which of mine offerings will you take?
Which of mine virtues claimed must I now forsake?

Lest it be courage and a coward I am become,
By your evening shadows, through prickled thicket and glen,
I would run from thee, I tell you, I would run!
Lest it be honesty and a liar I am become,
By your gentle voice, and in every word - the fruit of wisdom,
I would be pursued and punished by way of the splitting of my tongue.

Mother Snake! Mother Snake!
Must I sacrifice?
Would you not just hold me until mine breathing stops,
And I fall asleep so soundly within your serpent vice?

Why must thou demand so harsh a thing of me?
Thus the puzzle of my soul is made,
built upon the years and years.
When at last I had thought there should be no thing
Left that I should fear,
You escort my mind 'neath the twisting vines
Of that hallowed promenade.
And when we happen upon the garden I was forbade,
In formidable movements and speech you plead.

Hastur

Hastur 1 is the best album Cryo came up with. When that guitar rhythm comes in, you just know this album is quality. kevybluesy

Nyarlathotep
by Cryo Chamber Collaboration

supported by 8 fans who also own “The Vesper Serpent”

❤️A dark ambient masterpiece which perfectly captures the essence of Lovecraft's body of work as well as this entity in particular. So much grandeur, mystery, and eeriness with both soothing and maddening textures. Highly recommended! Plushie Fanatic

Yog-Sothoth
by Cryo Chamber Collaboration

supported by 8 fans who also own “The Vesper Serpent”

Yog-Sothoth. The thought of something lurking beyond time and space, seeing and knowing everything and all in existence at any given time, is deeply unsettling and yet fascinating. This outermost, outerworldly feeling is being transported in a good way. Part 1 is good, but Part 2 indeed sounds like I would imagine The Lurker at the Threshold to feel, if he felt anything. An outerworldly, cosmic and desolate piece of dark ambient. David Fischer

Dagon
by Cryo Chamber Collaboration

supported by 8 fans who also own “The Vesper Serpent”

Another fantastic Cryo Chamber Collaboration; nearly 2hrs of Dark Ambient music just the way I like it, with menace, foreboding, and apprehension, to the fore. pf22
