Description
“Come, let me wash thee
From the stench of skin let me rid thee
Yes, my hand is pale
But the heart, my love, is dark as night
(Watain – “All that may bleed”)
Picture disc single. Limited 500 copies
All that May Bleed shows but one facet of a quite diverse album, but the band chose this song as a first glimpse into The Wild Hunt because of its bombastic lunacy and white-eyed malevolence which could be said to constitute a main foundation for the album. The lyric is an invitation to sacrificial blood letting, ecstatic zealotry and human sacrifice. The salt of Satan in the wounds of Christ. Side B will be a track called Play with the Devil originally recorded by the Black/Heavy Metal band Taiwaz in 1988, in Uppsala. Gottfrid Ahman from In Solitude participates on solo guitar in Watains version.
