lyrics

In the year 370, in Alexandria, Egypt, Flavius is writing a letter to his son Marcus:

My son, years have passed and this is my last breath,
I give you the last spark of the light of reason and common sense,
and I know it will shine in your mind
In this old country, the ancestral Egypt, I can feel the weight of ages
So many gods, so many beliefs disappeared in the sands of time
When I look to those majestic pyramids,
I can see the eternal fight against vanity and death by the forgotten ones

How many men have died for this?
How many men die for this?
How many will die for the silent oblivion?
When I look to those forgotten divinities,
I can hear the silent oblivion

Alexandria has known many fights for religious beliefs
Pagans against Christians against Jews
Nothing but hatred for only illusion
What we call god today will be called idol tomorrow
What we call religion today will be called superstition tomorrow
What we call dead today will remain dead tomorrow
What we call dead today will remain dead tomorrow

How many men have died for this?
How many men die for this?
How many will die for the silent oblivion?
When will our divinities be forgotten?
Will you hear their silent oblivion?

My son, I leave this world, light of heart
As I reach my final destination,
The silent oblivion of the universe
Like many did before me and many will do after…
Because I know you will live your life enlightened by awareness and reason
I hope you will live free of illusion, free of all kind of superstition
Free of the fear of death and the unknown
And one day, maybe, one day humanity will be free
Free to be rid of the gods
Free to live for itself…

Mass of Perdition
by Ordalie

A band you have never heard of? Why? Following still the same labels which feed you with the same ole stuff? Think about it and think about it again because you stopped to care. Enjoy the pain. Lavadome productions

Embryo
by MADRE

There is no life after life, there's not even life, and there's no souls, there's just this dark matter which mutates and transforms. And devours. Lavadome productions

There's something charming about bands that don't give a shit what you like and just do their own thing. Is it death metal? Grind? Tech hardcore? Who the fuck knows? It's fun though. Ghuughra
