MOLOCH - Sterben Unter der Blasse Unvermeidlichkeit

Hopeless and suffocating black ambient bitterness. From the Ukrainian wastelands, this ominous presence in the underground, once again, brings forth the aural embodiment of severe anguish, pain and utter depression with unearthed, never before heard recordings and ones once thought lost to the corridors of time, stretching over a 10 year time span (2002-2012). The haunting wails, the scathing guitar, and the outpouring of negativity shall bring you to ultimate madness with your death being the only escape…

If you used google translate it translates PERFECTLY to show its meaning which is: "Dying Under the Pale Inevitability"...not sure how wrong it can be if a translator knows what it means...

and that shows how bad translators are. His German titles are generally wrong by the way. This is not the first example.
The title makes NO sense whatsoever.

Yes because the investors of Google want a translator available that's wrong...makes perfect sense :roll eyes:

I don't think the investors in Google really give a shit whether the translator is accurate or not. Have you never translated a page using the Google translator? It can be way off a lot of the time.

Correctly it would be spelled ''Sterben unter der blassen Unvermeidlichkeit'' or ''Sterben unter der Blässe der Unvermeidlichkeit''

Maybe if you just give him the title in proper german and explain what's wrong with one he attempted to use this would be less of a pissing match.

Some aspects:
Passive or active voice of the verb?
Pale in the sense of bleak? The German term (Adjective; Noun) can be misleading.
Inevitability is directional (German; English), while it is used non-directional without a proper reference.

You simply cannot use a word by word translation here. Something more contextual would be appropriate, but as the English original is flawed already, this is quite tricky.
