Meridiu5 Legendary, one-of-a-kind album. Combines Sanskrit mythology with groove metal at an unheard level of craftsmanship and care. Favorite track: Utpavana.

Dann 'the djentle giant' The way Kartikeya combines hindouist concepts and mantras with loud and heavy riffs (with low-tuned bass and uninterrupted double bass drum blasts) hasn't an equivalent in metal. The production of this album is impeccable and without reproach. Just perfect. Just delightful. And it's cleverly composed with bits of indian instrumentations and mantras that are included in harmony with all the brutalness of the overall songs. Amazing! Favorite track: Sarva Mangalam.

Poesy Rider Une sacrée découverte ! j'ai l'impression d'être un explorateur qui vient de découvrir une contrée exotique, avec ses autochtones férocement étranges qui se livrent à toutes sortes de rituels sanglants... je devrais fuir à toutes jambes, mais je reste planté comme un con, à observer avec un intérêt anthropologique... Fascinant ! Favorite track: Utpavana.

Nityasundara Beloved of the evershining star Sarvatapana Divine destroyer of filth and blight Kailashnath Dweller of the sacred mount Mahadeva I bow before thy grace Om Namah Shivaya I pray 'til the end of days in solitude I perform my tapasya for you Raise thy hand upon my faith I devote myself to thee Bhairav The darkness that enlights the blinded night Kamalakshana The eye that cleansed the world of false beliefs Chandrapal The moon crowns thy head Bhooteshwara Ashes of the fallen ones shall be thy bed Lay thy hand upon my soul He who carries the head of Brahma, Speak thy word Lingadhyakshasa Thy lingam, worshipped by a million souls Nataraja The cosmic dance that crushes countless worlds Rudra By your command I sacrifice myself Sadashiva Thy feet I lay upon my head Om Namah Shivaya I pray 'til the end of days in solitude I perform my tapasya for you Om Namah Shivaya

The Path 04:46
Parting with the ways of forgotten tribes And becoming a grain of sand In the desert of hypocrisy, filth and lies Lost is the grip of divinity's hand Parting with the ways of the fallen ones Drowning in the waters of sin Dweller of the worlds of shadows and grief, May thy path begin! Open your eyes and let them be A guide through the mist of hate Make your demons finally see A fortified wall with a locked up gate Find yourself in this burning pit Of damned forsaken souls Free yourself and show your wings To the beings left below Open every door That stands between you and the light Breaking through the core Of hatred left inside your mind Learning from the lands of the universe Speaking the words of bliss Gaining wisdom from the past Crushing the blight with divinity's fist Following the ways of the fallen ones Floating in the waters of grace Sculptor of the stone of infinity Thy path has just begun! Open every door That stands between you and the light Breaking through the core Of hatred left inside your mind Breaking every wall surrounding Keys to domes of sanctity, Spread your wings and fly forever Cleanse your mind and set it free

Bow thy head Before the golden throne Before the chariots Before the divine might As armies grow, countless people rise Legions of the holy war machine prepare to fight Lay thy hand On the sacred blade of truth That splits an evil heart And spills the blood of the impure As banners rise above the heads of men That shall stand for their lords And battle to the end All heads are turned towards the west All torches burn as souls unite They lay their hands upon their chests A million eyes, they shine so bright Panchajanyam Hrishikesho Devadattam Dhananjayah Paundram dadhmau maha-sankham Bhima karma vrkodara Sa ghosho dhartarashtranam Hridayani vyadarayat Nabha cha prthivim caiva Tumulo bhyanunadayan All heads are turned towards the west All torches burn as souls unite They lay their hands upon their chests A million eyes, they shine so bright Bow thy head Before the void Of countless deaths And broken lives

Neverborn 06:30
I am a symbol of a golden age Where pain is blind and pleasure reigns I am the master of tranquil waters Which bear the essence of peace and grace I am the serpent who lies upon The golden statue with wings of stone I am the eyes of a fallen god Who once could see the truth That remained unknown I am the keeper of faith I am the sun that fades away I am the one whose life is torn I am the child that was never born The voices of million souls Collide with the light The tears of a million eyes Forever denied I shall be the never born One whose life is a lie I shall sleep on a bed of thorns I shall be crucified I am a sage with a broken soul A sacred lake that has no shores I am a seed that never grows A ruined home with countless doors I am the keeper of faith I am the sun that fades away I am the one whose life is torn I am the child that was never born The voices of million souls Collide with the light The tears of a million eyes Forever denied I shall be the never born One whose life is a lie I shall sleep on a bed of thorns I shall be crucified

Rays pierce the clouds In transcendental rapture Waking all those Who have fallen asleep All crooked thoughts And raging disasters Vanish in the ocean Of prayers and joy! Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Becoming one with the divine grace I raise my hands in order to reach the skies Om Suraya Namaha, leave thy trace In countless human lives Open your eyes, open your heart Let the sun dry every tear Open your mind, open your soul Embrace the light of the burning sphere We celebrate the birth Of the bringer of light And drown in the essence Of the newborn sun Fear not, those captured By the night Chant the name of the Burning one! Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Om Suraya Namaha Becoming one with the divine grace I raise my hands in order to reach the skies Om Suraya Namaha, leave thy trace In countless human lives Open your eyes, open your heart Let the sun dry every tear Open your mind, open your soul Float in the rays of the burning sphere

We seek illuminance! Cried the blinded mass For being cast down To the depths of depths they are A million prayers Vanished in the void Another voiceless soul Is banished from the universe I see the absolute darkness I scream in a moment of silence I feed the mouthless ones I lead the choirs of oblivion Forsaken is the beast within Destructed is the will to live Aborted is the only child Chosen by fate As the savior of light As I seek someone below My own consciousness As I seek someone below The smouldering pit of ancient demons The banished servants feasting on the dead Are waken only to fall asleep again I summon thee, o fallen king of blasted world For here thy will is the will of all! As I seek someone below The flame that burns my feet As I seek someone below My own self, which is one with eternity I see the absolute darkness I scream in a moment of silence I feed the mouthless ones I lead the choirs of oblivion

Utpavana 09:42
A last glance bursts into scarlet flames A void of ash is all we possess Time has come to pay for your sins Bury hope, may Utpavana begin As skies turn black and eyes turn white Thousands scars on our faces crack wide open Innocent children - vices of the earth Seeds of enlightenment fall to grow Under the eyes of lying bastards We laughed at life, yet saw many dreams Of war and pain, of hunger and slaughter We dug our graves and now will rest in peace Born again, blinded by pain, Jackals run to the light over heads of their kin Meaningless rapture in a moment of agony Let the circle spin, may Utpavana begin! You are the plague You are salvation You are the venom You shall be no more! As a child you raise your hands To the everlasting sky To the heavens, which once were penetrated In order to feed your desires Hark! Thou shall be erased, For the great Utpavana has begun!

Kingdoms merge in the quest for might Lords seek pleasure to feed their desires Reigning in gold yet losing the truth Meaningless yagya pouring oil into fires Vedas divide as does a Brahmin's mind Souls separate from the cosmic essence Sri bhagavan, will they keep what they find Leaving their faiths with no defence? One obtains false desires The other falls from grace Brothers stand on the opposite sides He who plays with the fire Gets intensely burnt When he steps on the path of a liar Behold the rising wall Dividing the sacred realms And the worlds of man Behold the waking faces of dawn As the supreme lord returns to his above One obtains false desires The other falls from grace Brothers stand on the opposite sides He who plays with the fire Gets intensely burnt When he steps on the path of a liar

Thou shall be denied, o holy one By ignorant fools who plague the dying world I hear the winds blowing over ashes and ruins Of all that was sacred for every soul May the end begin for it was told That the cycle shall end to be born once more I stand in the dust of once sacral soul Humbly chanting thy name See the father cry as the mother eats her child Awaking an orgy of sacrilege and blight See the genocide and bloodshed, raging armies rise In the desecrated fortress of hatred and lies Hear the harlot's scream, see the drunken smile Sodomic rapture, cauldrons of bile Innocence is raped by godless desires Leaving the whole world vile Sanctity in life, purity in mind Sacrificed on the altar of blight Suicide and lies, ignorance inside What is pure is left to die All ears are closed And eyes are turned away As children cry So many years of carving faith Put to an end by peoples hate We are slaves We are the end Blasphemers reign in gold, as the holy drown in filth All hope is lost as the sinners rule the earth Sanctity in life, purity in mind Sacrificed on the altar of blight Suicide and lies, ignorance inside What is pure is left to die Those who seek salvation in this dying world Shall find eternal peace by chanting the name of the lord Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
