Dunwich Lyrics

Dunwich
Dunwich
Dunwich child
You know not your father's name
Dope numbs the pain
Ascend dark wooded hills to kane
Your mother's witches
Burnt at the stake for sorcery
You were conceived
Upon the altar, rights obscene
Child of Dunwich rise
You have your father's eyes
Child of Dunwich rise
End the world that you despise
Dunwich child
Of whispered past now they learn
High on the hill
Black clouds gather now they'll burn
Bay at the stars
"Why was I born at all?"
Hear voice of doom
From other worlds your father's call
Child of Dunwich rise
you have your father's eyes
Child of Dunwich rise
End the world that you despise
(guitar solo/interlude)

Our time has come

Our time has come
The end has begun

Jus Osborn is very much influenced by Lovecraft's writings (as well as others) of horror, the occult, etc. One of Electric Wizard's greatest songs thus far. I personaly think this whole album is on par with Dopethrone as masterpieces.
It's about the movie or the story by H. P. Lovecraft... you have to see Dunwich Horror, that movie is pretty bad ass.
If you like to read you can find the full short story online - it only took a few hours to read and it was one of the most finely crafted tales of horror I have ever read.
What's the meaning of this sentence: "Ascend dark wooded hills to kane"?
Ascend - going up. Kane - It's the name of some god. Wooded hills - WTF???
