Theatres Des Vampires 1999 "The Vampire Chronicles"
1. Preludium
"Of the primeval priest's assumed power when eternals spurned back his religion and gave him a place in the north obscure, shadowly, void, solitary
Eternals, I hear your call gladly, dictate swift winged words, and fear not to unfold your dark vision of torment." [Taken from "Preludium", William Blake]
"Impia Tortorum longos his turba furores sanguinis innocui, non satiata, aluit. Sospite nunc patria, fracto nunc funeris antro, mors ubi dira fuit vita salusque tenent." [Taken from "The pit and the pendulum", E.A Poe]
2. Enthrone The Dark Angel
Night without moon...obscure clouds in the sky whispers from twilight...terror so fine!
Ancient omen of cursed age hell is coming on the Earth
Enthrone the dark angel...awaiting his arrival born in the candle of Thorns...drink blood and tears
Body without heart pale faded flower we pray the Horned God we pray the King of Hell
"Follow your sign...a cold moon freezes my heart...a breath of horror when I walk the dark path of Oblivion... the Lord awaits in its castle of perdition when I walk the dark path of Oblivion."
3. Thule
"By a route obscure and lonely...haunted by ill angels only, when an Eidolon, named Night, on a black throne reigns upright, I have reached these lands but newly from an ultimate dim Thule - from a wild clime that lieth, sublime, out of space, out of time.
By the dismal tarns and pools where dwell the Vampires - by each spot the most unholy - in each nook most melancholy - there the traveller meets Aghast sheeted memories of the past - shrouded forms that start and sighas they pass the wanderer by.
By a route obscure and lonely...haunted by ill angels only, when an Eidolon, named Night, on a black throne reigns upright I have wandered home but newly from this ultimate dim Thule...Thule!" [Taken from "Dreamland", E.A Poe]
"For the dead travel fast." [Taken from "Dracula", Bram Stocker]
4. Throne Of Dark Immortals
"Resignedly beneath a dark sky the melancholy waters lie. so blend the turrets and shadow there, while from a proud tower an undead looks down!
There open fanes and gaping grave. the death has reared himself a throne in a strange city lying alone far down within the dim forest." [Taken from "The city in the sea", E.A Poe]
"Mistaken demon of heaven thy joys are tears! ask the blind worm the secret of the grave, and why her spires love to curl around the bones of death; and the will of the dark immortals.
Expanded the sound of a trumpet the heavens awoke, and vast clouds of blood rolled round the dim rock of the castle.
In his hills of stormed snow, in his mountains of hail and ice voices of terror are heard like thunder of autumn, when the cloud ablaze over harvest." [Taken from "Visions", and "The Book of Urizen", Chapter I and II, William Blake]
Ave Satani !
5. Woods Of Valacchia Part 2 - The Revelation
The black flames of death here opens the doors of hell the lust and violent perversion
Immolated to Lucifer you sigh in the pain of arcane ceremonial and the sacrifice will give us the force and new life
To operate our hidden missions unite my evil seed to the pure blood of the virgins drawing you to energy
The storm will come and the sky will become dark to show that the fate has been accomplished
Immolated to Lucifer you sigh in the pain of arcane ceremonial and the sacrifice will give us the force and new life
6. When The Wolves Cry
The eyes in the dark... when the sky is red the howling wind... when the rain falls on the earth!
A moonspell broken... blood of my bride terror in the night when the wolves cry
"Per Adonai Elohim, Adonai Jehova, Adonai Sabaoth, Metraton On Agla, Adonai Mathom, verbum pythonicum, mysterium salamandrae, conventus sylphorum, antra gnomorum, daemonia Coeli Gad, Almousin, Gibor, Jehosua, Evam, Zariatnatmik, veni, veni, veni Satana !" [Taken from "The Necronomicon", H.P. Lovecraft]
Take your cross when the sky turns black because the Vampires come out from their biers!
The forest breathes this enchanted atmosphere... mother of suffering... mother of evil mother of all dark creatures
7. Exorcism
Oh Lord help us Holy Mary, Holy Mary of God! because he has departed on the road, along the path, on the big road, where the powerful person met the Vampire.
The mother of God appeared on the roads: Stop! Don't drink his blood, don't take his strength, don't tear his heart, leave it chaste and pure. Like a pure egg as him like God has done it.
You run away, big evil, you run away, small evil, you run away from the nine sorceries, because if you don't want to run away from your wish you will run away for strength. I will pierce you with the knife. I will pierce you with the iron. I will throw you in the fire, and there you will die, like dew to the sun, like a worm under your feet. Go in the desert mountains where the rooster doesn't sing. You disappear there and then you die again.
8. Carpathian Spells
When the horizon will be red blood wherever he is or goes I will be with you, you walk the path of seven black candles
Vision of black might...dream of reality whispers of ancient spirit in the forest...forever as one!
I give the occult art of Goezia Strigis I give the horrid power of Capiquel Ancou the powers of Dioxemeion When the priest invokes his God...
You will give the death to him with the Rosary of Blood and the Numero Putrefactionis You will be...a new Vampire!
9. Cursed
When the darkness falls you see a new world the winter's embrace lost...in the forest
Silence...deep secret hidden in the dark the witches and their spells the trees seem alive tears of your mother cry 'cause you are dead entombed in a dismal coffin
"From the grave I rise to search for the virtue, that I miss, of love my lost groom to embrace and suck the blood of his heart..."
"Gagne la mort avec tous tes appétits, et ton égoïsme et tous les péchés capitaux." [Taken from "Jadis, si je me souviens bien...", Arthur Rimbaud]
When the darkness fall you come back to life with pointed teeth...and your red eyes
