Track By Tracks: Rising Sunset - De Mysterium Tenebris (2020)
1. Storm over the citadel:
This track is about the evil within the institutions whether political and
religious. The dark deeds, wrong doings and greed for power that we see
today.
2. Gluttons of the pre-diluvian:
This is about the resurgence of the wicked. Malignancy and malevolence
roams within our cultures worse than ever before.
3. Serpent of Eden:
This track is about the beginning of mankind and its primordial
transgression leading to rebellion and maliciousness. It is also about the
beginning of evil, about how and why impiety and suffering entered
human experience and stayed there.
4. The book of Enoch:
The apocryphal text which is prone to confuse and distracts from truth.
A person that can portrays himself as being a stylish and trustworthy
individual which at the end will deceive you with his pleasant words.
5. The Harlot riding the beast:
A scene from the apocalypse. The abominations of the earth and end
times. The harlot here is the person that abuses of his powers (the
beast) to restrain the world, the people, the institutions.
6. Rise of the Behemoth’s agony:
This track can be described as the abolition of all things that are harming
the human race. The wicked will rise and at first will control the world
through false believes but at the end they would have risen for their
own demise.
7. De Mysterium Tenebris:
Translated from the Latin language as ‘The mystery of darkness’. This
track is the title track of the album and it’s about the dark
journey, mysticism and the stages of metamorphosis that will happen on
Earth as the souls of humanity are aligned with the supreme being or
condemned for eternity.
8. Fate of the Tribulation:
This track speaks about the morbid end of a degenerate culture. It’s a
period of time where humankind will experience global hardships,
disasters, famine, war, pain, and suffering, which will affect all of
creation.
9. Abode of the living dead:
The beasts of society who seem to attack out of a sense of envy, pride,
greed and wrath. These beings have one thing in common, they seem to
inhabit the interstices between life and death, health and disease and
thus they lodge the very places that cause us the greatest terror
worldwide. Basically, it’s a vision of hades.
How did you write the songs?
The songs are normally written having the lyrics in mind. For the composition
of De Mysterium Tenebris, the lyrics were written beforehand by a friend of
mine who is close to the band. The general structure of a song (Intro, Verses,
Choruses, etc) is crafted by me (Carlo Calamatta, founding member & guitarist/
vocalist) in my personal studio then presented to the rest of the members.
Together we then form the melodies, various riffs and vocals arrangements.
Further adjustments are then made in the studio and finally, we practice the
song in its entirety to push it to its full potential.
