Goth Gorgon comments: “Fältherren” is for me the essence of what MÖRK GRYNING is. Dark and brutal yet melodic and dynamic. Lyrically it’s based on “The Field Marshal”, a song included in Modest Mussorgsky’s song cycle “Songs and dances of death”. A part of the (translated from Russian) original lyric should suffice to explain its meaning:
“Then, illuminated by moonlight, on her battle horse, shining with the whiteness of her bones, appeared Death; and in the silence, taking in moans and prayers, full of proud satisfaction, like a field marshal she circled around the place of battle”.”
