Skit's Song 00:53
skinning them snakes for breakfast chasing the sun through the wasteland got a pot of beans on the fire got the whole sky to admire hey, where are you going boy I'm gonna dare that mountain mister what that mountain haven't you heard the stories
2.
volumes of stone grown vast in ages up leads a path worn out and wasted ever since time seekers try climb it aiming to find what lies behind it did we learn when the stones and the rocks came crushing down mountain of ruin
3.
Ultima Ratio 05:37
all your craving efforts too steep for a simple man when will it ever be enough some graves best left untended should disappear from history dont wake what slumbers above our past we tried to bury too much for a simple grave the deeds that lead to our fall at this point bear wittness and tell it to your better man dont heed the mountains call figure this as I lay in dust all my rocks left to greet the dusk all your words have no sound no relief unlike the breeze that does shake the leaves
4.
crevasse cliff and crag theres no turning back nothing overcomes shaking limb and bone cling to rock and stone nothing overcomes what was ventured what was gained at what cost wheres the path wheres the way am I lost no blood and tear and sweat urge me to forg- reflect nothing overcomes body soul and mind fail me as I climb nothing overcomes nothing ventured nothing gained at what cost theres no path theres no way I am lost no now climb now fall
5.
Burning Skin 03:55
body aching without remorse husk is tearing a core set free duality of essence now clear to the eye parts bones from the ashes left the heart undisguised
6.
crush shaken flesh to stone oh why wont you die boy and then I laid my head on desolate high ground left it there to rest lest somebody found a straw to break it all what centuries would hold and make the living travel and send the dead back home

about

Stone Siren is a concise piece of music in which we musically touch on issues of epistemology, more precisely how humanity pursues absolute knowledge without ever being able to achieve what philosophers call the God’s-eye view. In a way, this is our own take on Nietzsche’s "Wille zur Macht", but in reality the album is much more multi-layered than that.

For the first time, we recorded an album live, to capture a more authentic Mountain Howl experience. In September 2018, in just four days, we recorded Stone Siren in our basement. Mixing and mastering was finished by March 2019, and final production, which includes CD artwork and printing, was finished by June in the same year.
