lyrics
Lashed our chains wide across this wasteland
the world we tamed
Broke the knees of Atlas beneath us
the Earth enslaved
We are the light, knights of the new world
Man-made gods
With our hands we tied mother Gaia
we stole her soul
After dark
we dance in the ruins
Our laughter will die
with the dawn
In the Seventh Wave
the dusk will come our way
We join hands again to help destroy
another world of man
Drilled beneath the skin of Earth Mother
siphoned veins
Sing the mantra of the reactor
we feed the flames
We are the sin, kings of a dead world
Blood red skies
The promethean fire in our hands
The ashes grow cold
After dark
we hide in the ruins
Our kingdom will fade
with the tide
In the Seventh Wave
the dusk will come our way
We join hands again to help destroy
another world of man
As we wander through the wasteland
and the rivers have all run dry
Leaning at the edge of the world
hand in hand we’ll die
We are of the wicked
We are of the sin
The children of man

Music & Lyrics: Jasper Karhunen
The songs are masterfully composed and flow together beautifully, and the orchestration is exactly how I want metal orchestration to sound: full, playable by a real orchestra, and just as important to the music as the vocals, drums, guitar, and bass are. tonycordeshimself
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer
Atmospheric, dreamy, melodic death, prog metal. 7 tracks that total approx. 55 minutes, with the longest clocking in at over 11 min. It's strange, different, and grew on me. The musicianship is outstanding. metaltyger
The Australian prog band channels the chaos of climate change into powerful songs that juxtapose beauty with unpredictable brutality. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 28, 2021
Hard to pick one track from this album. The whole album is a treat but if I would have to choose one, gun to my head I would pick Sweltering Madness just because of the low tuned guitar riff. S4V6
