1. Travelling for endless eternities
Scores of times crossing the world
From side to side
I've seen empires in prime
… and then in ruins
I have seen cohorts in arms
… and then consumed
2. Creation of eldest God
… the ageless rover
When world was born I had been old
… my path leads to nowhere
Master of fate
Either has fate
To be eternal watcher of fading
Everyting I
Cherish and love
Are lost and gone (love is lost and gone)
Chorus:
Empires rise and fall
Nothing can last forever
Whatever warms it will get cold
The wealth and poverty
Void and integrity
In flow of time are only drops
Chorus 2:
Mountains become the seas
The seas become the deserts
Graveyards become the sacred groves
Beginning and the end
Are only grains of sand
In sandglass web of Chronos’ holds
3. I am forgotten, but it's ok
But faith is also gone
And what do I see? Human's betrayal
Doomed to being without dawn
Value that stands
Above all else
Is more precious that money and glory
It's given for free
In all times I've seen
Time for life is the name of that story
Chorus:
Choir:
Cum terra moritur in mundum
Et terram novam creat;
Tempus erit non moriatur.
Est infinita et aeterna.
Chronos, omnipotens Deus,
Mundi observator semper.
Manum suam extendit
Super nos secula seculorum.

1. Born from the Void
Where Light meets Night
Sons of God, Heaven's knights
Flame was born, water flowed from Sky
And then came the World,
Later filled with pain and lies.
Chorus:
Sons of Heaven, Maids of Earth
A common fate of ancient birth
Primary triumph
Of beauty, strength and youth
Sons of Heaven, Maids of Earth
A common fate of ancient birth
Elemental tune
Of life, death, Sun and Moon.
2. Daughters of Earth
Doomed to live short life
And to be perfect wives.
Once they met, and the Sons, they saw
How beautiful are those maids
Thus incurred the wrath of God.
Chorus:
Choir:
Then the Lord said: "My Spirit will
Not strive with mankind forever,
For they are mortal; their days
Will be a hundred and twenty years"

1. You! Take my feather and write your sacred wisdom,
Sitting amidst of all things you know the truth.
You! Hold forever this place and found your kingdom,
Heed me, for I will show the light to you.
Three hundred djinns will be your servants
And thirty Devi will guard your way
Forget the three pernicious roads and find the right one
You! Take my feather, write my name!
Chorus:
They - will blame me for
I am the Raven
(Raven of dispersion )
You will be much more
Just listen to me I'll tell you
They - will blame me for
I am the Raven
(Choronzon)
You will be much more
Just listen to me I call you
2. Stars - they are high can't reach them neither
But there's a way that lies through dark abyss.
Come! I will fly ahead to be your lantern
Now tear the violet veil and tread to bliss
Three hierarchs of hell are now your masters
Your thirty guardian Devi led astray
Three hundred roads for you - and none is right one
Now give your curses to me - I told you they -
Chorus:
Chorus 2:
They - will blame me for
I am the Raven
(Raven of dispersion)
You will be much more
Just listen to me I'll tell you
They - will blame me for
I am the Raven
(Choronzon)
You will be much more
Just know the lies and what you are for!

1. Death walks behind you, you play again hide and seek with fate
Wisdom and control - this is your normal state
You're a man of the four elements you hide
Wind, road, tears and fire are inside!
Chorus (female):
How many roads have been walked
Fate creeps by blood
You are looking for the truth, a lone wolf
Eternal wanderer
Where is your home?
Destination is your rock and puzzle to solve
2. Male: I wander all my life in a maze of roads
As it traced by the cold ancient sword
Together: Walk the road of life through love and pain
A new day gives us back our role to play!
Chorus (male):
How many roads have been walked
Fate creeps by blood
I am looking for the truth, in solitude…
Eternal wanderer
Where is my home?
Destination is my rock and puzzle to solve
Choir:
The scales are equal to each other
Harmony is a prophetic law!
And again you go over the edge.
Good or evil, courage or fear -
At the end of all the ways are the same...
Chorus (together):
How many roads have been walked
Fate creeps by blood
I am looking for the truth, in solitude…
Eternal wanderer
Where is your home?
Destination is your rock and puzzle to solve

Name of Rose
05:38

1. One cold winter day
We came to serve our God
So many times ago
Long ago
Sign of the cross
Is rising higher
The name of Rose remains in our dreams
Chorus:
Sinners and saints in our hearts
They are all the same
Ancient knowledge and your faith
Struggle in strange game
Sinners and saints in our hearts
Falling one by one
Drink your cup of poisoned wine
Forever you'll be blind
2. Then we saw our temple
Shining in the sun
So many years
So many lives had gone
Misery have reigned here
And nightmares brought to life
Whispering chants
Are hiding the truth from us
Bridge:
Blind faith and crime
Devil and god
Fight in your heart till death
Brigde + choir:
The flame is rising higher
Ruining the mazes
Taking all the lives
Taking all the knowledge
Blind leading the blind
Making his own crimes
In the name of God
In the name of devil
Hiding all the truth
Burning fragile bridge
Between heart and mind
Between day and night
Heretic and saint
Argue in your soul
Fighting for the faith
Igniting devil’s fire
Chorus:

Nuclear song

1. The Earth is cooled down after the lead feast,
But the smoke’s still standing over dead world.
In the darkness wander shadows of new beasts
Rats protect possessions huddled in a flock.
Something that everyone was waiting for a while,
Across the land, no barriers, swept tempest terrible war
Chorus:
Everything will fall into the abyss
The Sun will be hidden in dust one day
What people have forgotten about,
It will drive them out from the Earth away.
2. Although all nations will become ghosts
And memories of the pain will gnaw
After the winter springtime always comes
It brings life back more than once.
Sooner or later the planet will be reborn,
But no human's trace around after a nuclear war.
Chorus:
Chorus 2:
We naively believe that we decide
The fate of the worlds, without repentance
But at the end of all things on this planet
We will sign our own sentence
Choir:
The last fish was caught
The last gold was bought
The last tree was broken
The last bird was shooted
The last note was muted
The last faith was stolen

The Rain

1. The final battle's over
No matter who wins
'Cause all those gods have fallen,
Noone left to count our sins!
The wasted land, it's burning,
Caught in the crossfire.
Heart of old world returning
It can save us now…
Chorus:
Let's start the rain!
I call to spirits of the skies
To heal the wounds of land
And wash away war's price
Nothing remains
So let the scorched earth come to life
Make scores of raindrops fall
And cast away demise.
2. Natural force is coming,
Old spirits wake up
And only strong and worthy
Will walk through the flames of war
Thick clouds are gathering
Above the man with staff
And with his
Each swing raindrops
Fall more and more...
Chorus:

Shaman’s Curse
05:19
|
|||
|
1. I am wasted and bruised
With blood up to my knees,
The only one tribe's survivor
Can't believe I lived through
I stand among perished kins
Their souls are crying to me
Don't let them go with it
Avenge us, our shaman
Bring them wrath of spirits
Avenge us, your tribesmen
Chorus:
In the name of greed
Little nation's about to be killed
So shaman prays
To spirits guiding his land and race
2. They are pale-faced
Nature's disgrace
With darkness in their minds
They appeared at night
So all huts were on fire
Second night our hunters were slaughtered
Their weapons are strong
But our rage is stronger
And great battle exsanguinates us
Fourth night has come
That brought great woe
Death of all women and children
Land of ancestors never was
A coin at foreigner's wars
Let no hostile survive in this place
Erase them from the land's face
Chorus:
3. Flames reflect
In his faded eyes
And give him the power for dark spell
Spirits awake,
Heralds demise
And this land turns into hell
Forever none of their kind can
Settle here and own this land
No kids
No homes
No peace for them
Only pain,
Decay
Only blood for them
Poisoned sumps
Dried plants
Rabid beasts for them
It is
Justice
Of his death knell
Chorus 2:
In the name of greed
Nation has been completely killed
But through centuries
Shaman's curse hunts his enemies!

Caravan

1. The way is long
Caravan goes along
Baldachin hides one secret
Young maiden, tender as a rose in the bloom
Male:
Marble-white distance and a ginger hot sands
A strong wind blows tightly into the eyes
Cameleer plods and sings plangent songs
About lands where the Sun closed the sky.
Under the scorching sun oasis is a heat haze
For water in the desert you give all your wealth
Only three days in the wilderness left to go
But people are weary without vigor and health
2. The way is long
Caravan comes along
What lies ahead? Oasis
Which there has never been seen before
Chorus:
Marchaba caravan
Fairytale has begun
Covered for rover's fun
Wonderful dastarkhan
The sun had set, fell coolness
Next morning wayfarers go again
3. The way is long
Decision was so wrong
A dweller was a sneak thief
He saw the girl and decided to take her
Chorus:
Marchaba caravan
Fairytale has begun
In pursuit of his sun
Had been sent hatchet man
And death is near, comes closer
But there is point of no return
Choir:
It's our last hour without discuss
Desert, have mercy and save all of us!
Chorus:
Marchaba caravan
Fairytale has begun
There is no sense to run
All will die for the one
The bloody Moon had risen
Phantoms again slowly go to the East.

Kaleidoscope

1. Delve in the dungeons of mind asleep
To find elements in primordial mess
Combine them to create or let it be
A void just black but sometimes lit by fires
What would you choose - a dance of elements
Or nothingness behind horizon of events
Shall you create a mirror to reflect
Or fog to hide all lives now and then
Chorus:
Let the light reflect
From myriads of unique mirrors
Hide yourself in mist
In smoke you disappear
Break the mirror now
And let the pieces fall
Let the smoke disperse
And see an empty hall
3. As soon as tender Eos hides beyond the horizon line
Greet Nyx, embrace her and drink indigo wine
Imagine your own Space and write the sacred code
Tonight ascend
Another god
Choir:
Cogito, ergo sum.
Fall asleep and create kaleidoscope of hundreds of your own worlds
Chorus:

Sanctorium Saint Petersburg, Russia
Sanctorium is symphonic metal band with male and female vocals from Saint Petersburg,
Russia.
Fans of dark music appreciate the contrast between memorable cold female voice and a colorful male death metal growls, and also mix of heavy guitar riffs with exquisite keyboards (classic of the genre), symphonic arrangements and the general atmosphere of the songs.

It's a great blend of different metal genres and styles, with great solos in basically every song, just that touch of oriental influences that feel natural but not artificial and above all else, performed by the beautiful, haunting voice of Jelena Dobric, who uses it in a way that is not the typical operatic approach as we are used to from other female-fronted bands

Metamorphosis takes the musical artistry of this band to another level. It's not progressive,it's daring, as each musician in the band tries things they didn't try before. Obviously with Jelena adding death growls to her repertoire, but also with every song being it's own little universe but still fitting the concept of the album. This here is something you've probably never heard before. Oh, and I just can't pick a favorite song, because that changes everytime I listen to this great album.

I am a total Delain fanboy, and this sounds like it could be "Lucidity"-era Delain music. Wish I'd bought this ages ago. I don't care how formulaic this may sound to some, it's still a rockin good time. Hard to find this genre on Bandcamp. "Silence From the Deep" and "King of Thieves" also favorites.
