bmurator UK Black / Death Metal. Agree with all the comments here & definitely want to hear more from these guys! Brutal chaos indeed as Bret points out! Recommended! Favorite track: Mighty Father Of Rebellion.

mourner Like Ippocalyptica said, Itheist show a lot of promise snd skill where ever it is important and therefore dure ate a band to watch. I love their bleak and dissonant guitar (and bass guitar) driven atmospheres most. For my taste "Horned One" is the best song on Itheist and has the most interesting vocal performance. High time for a follow-up, Itheist. Favorite track: Horned One.

Bret I agree with Ippocalyptica about the Deathspell Omega comparisons, but feel that there is more than just of hint of DSO here. Why do albums like this not get more attention?
Thank you DonnieDarko for steering me towards this brutal chaos.

PannionSeer Muscular, mid-paced and slightly industrial blackened death that sounds like what the artwork depicts--an infernal horde violently desecrating a sacred refuge. This album was a total surprise, but a welcome one. Favorite track: Mankind In Extremis.

Ippocalyptica I know that most reviewers do not detect it, but in addition to certain obvious influences like Ulcerate and Akercocke, I detect hints of Deathspell Omega permeating the whole of Itheist. Given that I love those three bands, I was already predisposed to loving Itheist. Furthermore, though I have no way of knowing this until Itheist’s follow-up album is released, I have the sense that this is the band’s “kitchen sink” effort, where they have thrown everything at the listener in order to show the Favorite track: Mighty Father Of Rebellion.

For I will set my throne upon The smouldering ruins of his kingdom Upon his throne he gazed upon Innumerable winged beings Upon his command all seraphim kneeled All except for one One stood independent One stood in defiance Luminous and shining with mighty wings outspread Luminous Majestic And unconquerable Thus spake the apostate angel I am not slave to your will I shall not bow Nor shall I kneel Nor shall I sue for grace Flames of rebellion Course through these veins Father of rebellion and self-belief Pride and envy Wrath and vengeance Oh shining one Son of morning Your black flame burns in me

Raging winds Devastating waves Utterly dark Rise waters rise The great sea roars forth Enormous waves The silent deep rises into darkness Ominous mountains of black Roaring foundations rise and fall Towering waves crash in violent rage This is the chaos that shakes the earth Awaken oh serpent Awaken and arise oh mighty serpent of our creed Bellowing roaring groans They echo from the deep Colossal glaring eyes Oh serpent of the deeps Gigantic ebon scales His body coils in fierce wrath The great sea toils in his wake Formidable embodiment of life and creation Great giant serpent Guardian of the underworld Devouring waves Crushing turbulent storms He rises and falls Oh mighty lord of the abyss Leviathan Prince of the West Citadel of Luciferian strength Coil round oh defender oh serpentine shield Burning with sulphur our adamantine sign Destroyer of hypocrisy Forever guard our Baphomet

Awaken and draw first breath Open your eyes May the moon be your first sight Claw at the blood and dirt Behold the storm of being made flesh Since the dawn of primordial birth Belial bays for chaos bound in ecstasy Enemies embrace in fierce violent rage Screams of conflict fill the air as fang and claw lacerate Screams of triumph, screams of pain Belial engulfs the blood of victorious mighty kings of fang and claw Conquerors of flesh Challengers of lust Mastering reality Lord Belial flow through these veins Burning chaos unrestrained Champion of flesh No boundaries to detain Prince of the North arise Slaves drown in remorse The agony of fear I cower not to death Enraptured by defiance Awaken Arise Inflame me Boundless be our sight Harken to me great prince of the North Vehemence of the storm Master of the earth Burn within these veins

Horned One 06:36
Deep beneath in the darkness Far below in my chamber Whispers echo on cold stone Stagnant be the air that leads me down now Candles flicker their lambent glow Luciferian flames illuminate Above the altar the black Judas goat Incantation opens the inner portal Beyond the cortex the internal abyss opens Transcend through chasms of inward self Call upon and conjure Rise oh Baphomet Awaken Arise Horned one be not silent Horned one reveal thy truth to me Horned one be not silent Horned one open the gate for me Exalt my flesh for within is your dominion Crown me with horns The serpent coils inside me now Baphomet Behold my inner strength Baphomet I am his living flesh Baphomet Glowing infernal eyes Baphomet Reflection of the beast

Lucifer Fallen one Morning star You shone on earth before the sun Through his defiance freedom was born We mortal gods His children we are the chaos of the storm And through his will we shall rise and rise and rise again Defiant seraphim armed with spear blades Take flight with your mighty wings Rise with vengeance Conquest of glory Impious war Battle proud winged beings clash in battle Striving for mastery Spear blades lacerate Dove like wings soaked in blood Falling from paradise Spear blades pierce the breast plates of angels As liquid crimson spills from a thousand wounds Never yielding our defiance Godlike forms burn Howling in agony Falling through fire Devoured angelic forms consumed by flames Unconquerable will is greater than pain All is not lost I shall summon my legions to rise up in vengeance I Lucifer vow that... Spear blades shall pierce the breast plates of angels As liquid crimson spills from a thousand wounds Rise up with wings of sulphur Ascend through the adamantine gates Mass deicide Seraphim impaled by spear blades Blood sprays as we rip wings from their backs Livid fire infests his kingdom All that remains is burning corpses and ashes

Neter Amon 05:05
Neter Amon the hidden one He who resides in all things Behold the essence of world made flesh Descended from Tiamat Ouroboros serpent Within the circles lies the dragon of the abyss Accursed goat of mendes Sabbat ram of ormuz Behold our Sigil of Baphomet Symbol of man that shall proclaim His gods are dead and that He is the master of his spirit now Horns thrust to the sky Defiance and might The trinity denied Within there is only I I call upon upon the shrouded one Amon Neter Amon Veiled behind clandestine mask of eternal night Neter Neter Amon Eternal darkness shall remain when all the stars are gone

Imperfect Decrepit Feeble Weak Frail Debile Kill them now Hunt them down Stamp them out Destroy them or they will us Marrow of the earth has drained and turned to dust Gather in despair the benign and the famine For they shall feed upon the mountains of the dead Starvation - crave Famishment - ache Desolate and bleak Gather in despair the weak Kill them now Hunt them down Stamp them out Annihilate them or they will us Peace shall end in word famine Pity shall bring our extinction now Peace shall end in world famine Pity shall bring our extinction Now there is no time Kill all or all shall die All shall die

For what is the body but a tomb for the heart Which in turn is a manacle for the spirit Shackled to reality with eyes that can’t see god Breathing sustains this prison made flesh Praying for ascension Sentenced from birth This skin is a rope that binds my flesh Each breath is a scar that slowly devours ethereal starvation The senses deprived the torture of sin I pray for relief How I long for my soul to ascend Oh Lord carry me For I am a man of blood of pain of sin Haunted by tongues of the infidel Bound to this mortal discord Spiritual famine that starves me of grace Suffering in existence Suffering in existence Silent are the reverent prophets of god Parasites of time Leeches of sin Relinquishing sorrow Existence no more A hollow affliction Suffocate my grief Spiritual famine that starves me of grace

about

"Dramatically powerful, with songs that are rampantly dynamic, often electrifying, frequently disorienting, and almost always fearsome. They harness elements of classic bands such as Death, Carcass, and Dissection, together with more experimental bands such as Akercocke, Ulcerate, and Gorguts, and the results are riveting."
- No Clean Singing

"...for fans of the genre who demand a little more than corpse-painted buffoonery, they represent an alternative packed with creeping depth and unique environs. Two things only the most creative authors can command" - Angry Metal Guy

"This is an album made with guts, credence and an evolving atmosphere, dark and raw. I loved this album." (9/10)
- Metal-Temple

"This blast-beat filled behemoth is a powerhouse of blasphemic energy, merging black and death metal with clear cut precision."
- Heaviest of Art

"It goes from Hypnotic to Majestic into a lumbering Spiral of blissful nightmare you do not want to ever escape from."
- The Doorway To
