Worm ov humanity, son ov the earth
Awaken from your feeble dreams ov bliss
And bear witness to ruination ov your world
Embrace our will, heed our names
Rejoice in the coming end ov time
For your day ov reckoning is now at hand
Their voices burn with vengeance, like a beast roiling in pain
They whisper in tongues ov treachery, scornful creatures ov the void
The nightmare’s becoming endless, unbroken by the sun
Has my mission been discovered, has the Great Serpent found my path
The Inquisition shall have their traitors
Bathed in their sins ov pain
Dispatched by the Sword ov Damocles
Should darkness be their claim
Let their steel burn unto ashes
Ye bastards ov the damned
Adhere to the will ov God’s left hand
And submit to thy command
Thy command!
Beseech the black gates and break unto thee
Lay waste to these blighted lands ov lawless heresy
Though combat rites are taken, and our sacraments lay fulfilled
I grapple with trepidation, while Legions call my name
Counted amongst the vermin, and governed by my will
I dawn the brand ov judgment, ripe with the flames from pit ov wrath
The Inquisition shall have their traitors
Bathed in their sins ov pain
Dispatched by the Sword ov Damocles
Should darkness be their claim
Let their steel burn unto ashes
Ye bastards ov the damned
Adhere to the will ov God’s left hand
And submit to thy command
Embrace and advocate the secrets ov fallen kings
Dissolve the starless façade ov mankind’s naïve monarchy
Liberate your spirit and feed the inner flame
Denounce false reason and give way to supremacy!
Beseech the black gates and break unto thee
Lay waste to these blighted lands ov lawless heresy
Go now unto the sickened Earth
Open the doors beyond and shatter lock and key
Set the will ov the Outer Ones to your path
Fold back the veil ov your sentient forbearers
Behold the realms ov the pan-dimensional void
For the Faceless Emissary ov Chaos calls

Brothers, on this morn we celebrate a new dawn
As we baptize these lands in holy combat
Hunt down every apostate with extreme prejudice
Let these Gal-Gothic hills run red with heretic blood
Deus vult!
God wills it!
Deus vult!
The black sun rises as the first blood is spilled
Thirsting at the crossroads for weak and the damned
Samael’s venom incinerates their wounds
Draining the essence ov the flesh left behind
The wolves fall upon them with rapture
Vipers sworn upon the Left-Handed Path
Hours marked by the Whore ov pain and ruin
With the endless chastising rape ov their ranks
Deus vult!
As the Void Flame ignites in euphoric ecstasy
We carrion soldiers feast on our hearts
No town can be sparred from this purity ov fire
No heretic can evade this cultivation ov steel
Brothers’ spate hymns ov the forbidden black tongues
Whilst invocations are offered to maw ov Azazel
I watch as my spirit dances with madness
As our chants are scattered to the song ov the winds
Sanctify with bloodshed and let the war drums sound
Libera Imperium Ab Chaotica!
Sow the seeds ov destiny upon unhallowed ground
Libera Imperium Abominationum!
Sanctify with bloodshed and let the war drums sound
Libera Imperium Ab Chaotica!
Sow the seeds ov destiny upon unhallowed ground
Libera Imperium Abominationum!
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevae, ad te suspiramus,
Luctus et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle
Non nobis Domine, non nobis,
Sed nomini tuo da gloriam
Libera Imperium Abominationum!
Libera Imperium Ab Chaotica!
Libera Imperium Abominationum!
Libera Imperium Ab Chaotica!
Libera Imperium Abominationum!

Incipit Chaos!
Emancipate our fevered will
Consecrate victory
With Pan-Aeonic might
Grant us your majesty
And the triumph ov your glory
So we may crush the laws ov man, bleed the sands ov time
And drown in the Oceans ov Ain
Ov those who us bear false witness
Your immolation shall be our justice
Let their screams echo
In the chasms ov the stars
Nameless Warspawn!
Embrace the sons’ ov Cain
Keeper ov the Black Thrones
Exalt be this sacred rite
Oh Sword ov the Night’s Storm!
Illuminate the ancient path
Bless this Pentecost ov Fire, and count us among your ranks
We sons ov Promethean Kings
Brothers you’ve sworn yourselves unto the darkness
(Bathe in the light ov Chaos)
Iscariot’s kiss only paid by debt ov your blood
(Drown in the Oceans ov Ain)
This malediction defiles oaths ov the holy
(Bathe in the light ov Chaos)
Confess as I seat thee at the altar ov steel
(Drown in the Oceans ov Ain)
Rise child ov wrath
And bathe in the light ov Chaos
Assimilate the knowledge ov the Abyss
Let mankind fall as the Archons before them
Endless Titan
Dark vessel ov madness
Break through threshold and let it be done!
Open the gateway so we are but one!

And None Shall Rise...
03:53
|

Six and Twenty Thousand Years
Hath I watched between the cosmic spheres
To worlds I’ve burned where none shall rise
Conjoined at the axis across the skies
May lull ov stars where ancients lie
Give slumber to weary traveler’s eye
Through the twisted view ov forgotten shores
Behold thy path ov the blasted lore
These visions return ov tundra and flame
A golden army marches from the west
A citadel stands vigilant yet garrisons lay barren
A sign must be sent forth from the mountains ov frost
He will not take this strange world ov ice
For his blade will continue to thirst!
(Choral) Fall!
For you stand accused
(Choral) Blaze!
With the might ov a thousand suns
(Choral) Heed!
The leering eyeless gods
(Choral) Speak!
This culling ov an Elder Race!
Six and Twenty Thousand Years
Hath I watched between the cosmic spheres
To worlds I’ve burned where none shall rise
Conjoined at the axis across the skies
May lull ov stars where ancients lie
Give slumber to weary traveler’s eye
Through the twisted view ov forgotten shores
Behold thy path ov the blasted lore
Lassitude takes its hold
In this oneiramantic nightmare
The stellar wolves call the charge
Moloch’s war cry on their crest
Give lamentations upon this fortnight
At the passing ov The Ancients
Mocked by the Eye ov The Twilight’s morass!
Let the chariot ov slumber now take thee
For your sacrifice has now been prepared

The Devouring Mark
05:48
|

Incarnation ov war, Scion ov soil
Spat forth from the mud and the grime
Bastard to mankind’s sickened cantor
The stagnate marsh ov dying gods
Marked by Chaos!
A servant ordained
To till these fields ov pain
My chalice overflows with poison
Scales born ov flesh in the ichor ov hatred
Inversed stigmata from what once so holy
Excised, amended, and reformed
Marked by Chaos!
A servant ordained
The mire bursts with Asmodeus’s seed
As I’m enslaved and dragged into the depths
I will abolish this prison and the chains ov respite
Tearing the cosmos asunder as we dance to the Gates ov Infinity!
Strip away all pale illusion
And set me loose upon this world
Embrace your birth rite!
Let unfurl this banner ov malice
May its venom pour out from my veins
Dawn Leviathan’s mantle ov power
Light the spear ov the storm winds ablaze
Enscroll my name upon the gaping Void
Vigilant on the path ov despair
Release me to the spawning grounds ov stars
Divinum tua sancta fervórem!
The Faceless Titan recoils
As I reduce the Deep Ones to ash
Pursuing him into the Abyss
Tearing the cosmos asunder as we dance to the Gates ov Infinity!

Behold my dominion!
The ghastly midnights ov rotting splendor
Where the charnel winds lick flesh from bone
Behold my dominion!
Walk upon the corpse once worlds
See the sores once cities,
The unsanctified keeps
Lost beyond the passage ov Time!
You who to deny me and circumvent my rule
Writhing at the cuff ov my unseen hands
Avow this whisper that crawls in the shadows
Bend knee to our will and embrace the Abyss
Grant us your seal, for we are the faithful
To shepherd the herds ov man
Our world’s demise, salvation, our rapture our doom
Feed the flames ov our hearts
Behold my dominion!
Worshipped by ye bastards ov flesh
Your altars, your temples, your idols
Are but monuments to my reign
Behold my dominion!
For I am the Nameless One
The bleating call ov the Void
The face ov a thousand forms
Protests fall to silence
Chosen but cursed
A pilgrim on his journey ov madness
Protests ov silence
Chosen but cursed
A pilgrim on his journey ov madness
Grant us your seal, for we are the faithful
To shepherd the herds ov man
Protests fall to silence
Chosen but cursed
A pilgrim on his journey ov madness
Protests ov silence
Chosen but cursed
A pilgrim on his journey ov madness
Again I invoke the Key and the Gate
Grant us passage to the Throne ov Fallen Titans
So that I may strip away my mask and at last arise!

Stormrite Ascension

Exalt ye ascendant ov Chaos
Exalt ye rite ov the storms
Exhalt ye goliath ov Aeons
Exalt ye master ov light!
I call out to the Starspawn
Your herald is here
Born ov a slave race
Promethean child!
Blessed be his will, swift be his sword
Now hunt upon the mantle ov gods
For I am the anointed, the Usurper ov Wrath
As I wade through the pyres ov Dead Worlds beyond
Marked hand ov Twilight, by Black Flames ordained
Lawless crusader at the threshold ov the Crossroads
And with this offering of mortal flesh
Take up arms against the Demiurge and its neglected seed
Stifle the Zodiac within our wildfire
And crush the heavens beneath our decree
Bleed upon the planes ov the unknown
Drink our blasphemous magic like wine
Invoke the Alien Gods ov the Great Outer Darkness
In nomini Chaos, vocamus te Azathoth!
Dia-aodann-nah!
Blessed be his will, swift be his sword
Now hunt upon the mantle ov gods
For I am the anointed, the Usurper ov Wrath
As I wade through the pyres ov Dead Worlds beyond
Marked hand ov Twilight, by Black Flames ordained
Lawless crusader at the threshold ov the Crossroads
Exalted ascendant ov Chaos!
Blessed be this rite ov storms!
This rite ov storms!
Dia-ad-aghaidh-ha-aodann!

Exalted Void ov Chaos
Open thyn Black Nexion
Shatter your feeble chains ov slumber
And breach the gates ov this Galactic Graveyard!
Daemon of the timeless stellar waves
Lead this Cabal against the races ov the cosmos
Consume the light ov Hyperion
And bring this multiverse to its knees!
Oh Azathoth
First child ov madness
The all-devouring star
Bestow upon us your seething glory!
I stand at the throne ov the Black Sun as the Eye ov Abaddon opens
Struggling against the Storm Winds, the radiance is blinding
Borne ov Chaos, scores of demigods proclaim my arrival
To witness the Endless Vessel undone
Will ov the Hydra
Enthroned upon the waters ov blood
Will ov the Hydra
Enthroned upon the waters ov blood!
Unleashing the might ov Chaos, I charge the Titan ov Shadows
Driving my blade ov Aethyr into his seething maw
Beheading the bastard Archon, for I am the chosen
Casting his body to the gathering dark
Will ov the Hydra
Enthroned upon the waters ov blood
Will ov the Hydra
Enthroned upon the waters ov blood!
Yield thy reign ov the Sun
Free the will ov the King reborn
Raise the banners ov Dawn
Face ov Light venerate my soul
For the Dead One shall cease to dream
But awake and pour forth his knowledge
May it flow like a river
And consume us forever
Lend me thyn eyes
For this is the hour
Embolden me with thy dream
Bless this union
Wield my power
Use my knowledge
Free my hunger
On the path ov thy will
Lend me thyn eyes
For this is the hour
Embolden me with thy dream
Join us!
Wake thee Great Chaos!
Yield thy reign ov the Sun
Free the will ov the King reborn
Raise the banners ov Dawn
Face ov Light venerate my soul

Cast upon the cobbles
Clothed amidst the filth
Mocked by thunder
Spat upon by brigands
This odyssey hath come to an end
Lowly sing the fires ov man
Cursed to dwindle upon the winds
That tell ov advent drear
Torn from rapture once so content
How I wish to dispel the fear
And dream ov days long gone by
Hersey they claim, my edict be damned
These visions my burden, this madness I bear
This reckoning’s upon us, for our time hath passed
Yet it is I who laments
Only I who laments!
Lowly sing the fires ov man
Cursed to dwindle upon the winds
That tell ov advent drear
Torn from rapture once so content
How I wish to dispel the fear
And dream ov days long gone by
In the clutches ov irons I now make my home
Screams adrift among the hills, lost to the winds
Cries to be doomed upon the ore ov these walls
How I long to be free
For this realm’s veil is rent
May the Laylines gush forth
The dead semen ov gods
From the blackened depths
Bleed this feeble world…bleed…BLEED!

Dia! Naahemah! Anium! Sorath!
No prison can stifle this hunger
Untamed my fevered will
Desires ov molten iron
Absolved ov these mortal restraints
Overrun these hollowed walls
Floods these barricade ov stone
Dance with blaze ov my candles
Let tides Chaos pour from the Night
Dia-Naahemah-Anium-Sorath!
For I am the Stalker ov Stars
The howling bedlam that calls
The lawless hand caressing Dark
The cavernous mouth ov the Void
Dia-Naahemah-Anium-Sorath!
And so I ascend into Chaos
A disciple granted passage beyond
To speak as its unwavering vessel
Until the stars no longer shine

Despair all ye Creatures, for the sickness has come
As the days of the this world have entered it’s sum
Despair all ye Servants, and abandon all hope
For we are the hand that tightens the rope
Despair all ye Masters, and cast down your crowns
For under our message your rule will but drown
Despair all ye Nations, your dominion is near
As you drink the venom of the one that we fear
You vermin are weak
While you gnaw at our hilt
Your creations have ripened
At the twilight’s decline
Your scholars grow weary
As your cultures have spoiled
You’ve salted your fields
With the with your bedridden will
Lament for the blind who choose to not see
Mourn for the deaf who cannot hear him speak
Grieve for those whose fate is undone
Content with what their lies have become
But lament not for us though we be sick
Our blood once like water now seasoned and thick
This yearning for knowledge the conquest we share
For marked is our fate on the path ov despair
The crows spread their wings
At the helm ov our host
Winds chant in anguish
Under sound ov our drums
We chosen Apostles
To His edict we preach
From the blight we advance
To tramp the weak
Lament for the blind who choose to not see
Mourn for the deaf who cannot hear him speak
Grieve for those whose fate is undone
Content with what their lies have become
But lament not for us though we be sick
Our blood once like water now seasoned and thick
This yearning for knowledge the conquest we share
For marked is our fate on the path ov despair
Great Corruptor, Oh Father, Oh Lord
Give us your blessing in exchange for our sword
Your insignia our compass, your banner our guide
In the crucible ov penance with you by our side!
Oh Father ov Sores, dear Ruler ov Flies
This Gospel we carry for the rest ov our lives
And sow ye disciples from the ash ov these lands
Brothers and sisters in your grand master plan!
And so my children inherit these ailments ov my splendor
For it is you who will join me as this world fades to ruin
May those who scoff at this declaration breed amongst the filth
Let them be wiped away for good till only their broken monuments remain
This journey we’ve sought
Shall bind us as one
As the hour approaches
For His plague to take form
His vessel’s prepared
With His rot at it’s sail
We the Incultus Pestum
Will ever prevail
Lament for the blind who choose to not see
Mourn for the deaf who cannot hear him speak
Grieve for those whose fate is undone
Content with what their lies have become
But lament not for us though we be sick
Our blood once like water now seasoned and thick
This yearning for knowledge the conquest we share
For marked is our fate on the path ov despair
Great Corruptor, Oh Father, Oh Lord
Give us your blessing in exchange for our sword
Your insignia our compass, your banner our guide
In the crucible ov penance with you by our side!
Oh Father ov Sores, dear Ruler ov Flies
This Gospel we carry for the rest ov our lives
And sow ye disciples from the ash ov these lands
Brothers and sisters in your grand master plan!
Rejoice in communion, all ye daughters and sons,
Continue this march till this day is but won
Let us give thanks and celebrate this decay
For the Master ov Sores will give us the day!
Your afflictions our birth rite to carry alone
With your mantle ov wisdom we’ll face the unknown
So Despair all ye Nations, we’ve come to an end,
And become reborn ye children ov Men!
Great Corruptor, Oh Father, Oh Lord
Give us your blessing in exchange for our sword
Your insignia our compass, your banner our guide
In the crucible ov penance with you by our side!
Oh Father ov Sores, dear Ruler ov Flies
This Gospel we carry for the rest ov our lives
And sow ye disciples from the ash ov these lands
Brothers and sisters in your grand master plan!
