Vocals

The vocal makes sense with this style of music. And if you knew me from my channel, you are probably noting how I am starting to actually like some black metal vocals. Something clicked for some of them for me.

I am not big into hearing clips, but the way it is presented feels like a bad memory. Kinda of weird to me that the clip is in English.

Music

I like the atmospheric nature of the music. It goes to very quiet places, and also picks up the pace and has an intensity about it. 

Lyrics

Hopefully I am not butchering the actual words behind this, since it isn't originally in English.

As the title seems to mean "night world" or "world night," I think this song is referring to some feeling of not connecting with what is going on during daylight. It is using terminology that indicates that the world is at night. Maybe when you can be more distant.

Referring to the world as pale could mean there is a feeling of disconnect, or possibly like it just doesn't matter, or something about it doesn't measure up.

see the night
this earth
since when
is the world
so pale

This part feels like it is talking about something that is getting harder to understand, not more clear.

drives forward
in the madness
the time passes
