For the fans of our debut album Nocturnes And Requiems you will be very pleased with this. The Video is a great representation of the lyrical theme. Filmed in part inside the ritual chamber at The Crooked Path in Burbank California, the video represents the harsh realities of the artists path.“ “Come with me, to a clearing in the field before the dawn.

The meek shall not inherit a thing, but an existence of dread. I will be your place and time I’ll wipe away your fears Give in to me you know you’re mine Step into the shadows… Come with me… To a clearing in the field before the dawn In time you’ll see the light In a Ceremony Of Fire There’s no room for us to pretend That what we’re doing is divine And with every passing hour We watch it all unwind Everything here must come to an end What is born will surely die But you just keep on bowing your heads You cannot turn back time Into this pyre I cast what’s left Upon the rising flames The wicked must be sacrificed To save us all from death I used to dream that everything would change But all my prayers have been denied Now I just listen as their voices die And Slowly I, can hear them fade… Away Fade away Come with me… To a clearing in the field before the dawn In time you’ll see the light In a Ceremony Of Fire Come with me… To A Clearing in the field before the dawn And you will see the light, In a Ceremony Of Fire (c) 2023 Deathwave Records & Nocturnes and Requiems ASCAP Witherfall was formed in Los Angeles in 2013.

Not one to cut corners, Witherfall enlisted famed drummer Marco Minnemann (The Aristocrats, Steven Wilson) on Curse of Autumn, ensuring the foundations of singles “As I Lie Awake,” “The Other Side of Fear,” and “The River” were second to none. On the new album Minnemann returns to the fold with an album-only appearance, while drummer Chris Tsaganeas (Wax Owls) and multi-instrumentalist Gerry Hirschfeld (Willie Nelson) Witherfall’s newest permanent members...
