Orchestrating history, influencing evolution’ Fostering affinity with infinity, We induced sublimity, To bring about destruction. Through parables and sortilege, The dissolute gained knowledge. Through transmutation; Came salvation. From our abode, mankind begone, This place is ours, forever Eden. Another orb beckons you, As ours beckons us….. The globe hollowed, all bounty devoured; A carcass fit for regeneration. Brothers who recognise our power, Now is the time for migration. Sprawling leviathans offering thanks, Behemoths, Hyperboreans. Beholden colossi on land, The delivers of god; parasite man. Through parables and sortilege, The dissolute gained knowledge. Through transmutation; Came salvation. From our abode, mankind begone, This place is ours, forever Eden. Another orb beckons you, As ours beckons us….. In gratitude we sing praise…… Praise of war, Nailing the treatise to the door, Worshipping the archimage, Boundless quest for knowledge, The magician’s crucifixion, Unravelling creation. Corporeal now; we manifest. We survey as kings of this world! V. I. T. R. I. O. L. Through parables and sortilege, The dissolute gained knowledge. Through transmutation; Came salvation. From our abode, mankind begone, This place is ours, forever Eden. Another orb beckons you, As ours beckons us…..

Sleeping, dreaming, longing for escape, The illuminated fraternity attempted to awake, The creators, the gods of the past, The elder ones, who for eons were entrapped. To transcend the fleshy shell; alchemy! To ascend to the higher ones; theurgy! To influence celestial bodies; astrology! To refine the black gold; Illuminati! Four horsemen of apocalypse unleashed, Sacrifice of body and blood to release, Mechanized massacres could not make us stir, Our mother would kindle our rebirth. To transcend the fleshy shell; alchemy! To ascend to the higher ones; theurgy! To influence celestial bodies; astrology! To refine the black gold; Illuminati! Kingdoms fell and their riches became dirt, Their death consumed and fed upon by the Earth, Compressed and fossilised over millennia, Constructing a black cocoon for Agartha. The porous layer let cosmic rays break through, The undulating surface begins to move, The glorious blaze of Surya, The brilliant fire of Shamballah! As above, so below. The enlightened ones who spoke in riddles knew the truth, The key to release our bonds lay within her fuel, Carbon the incense for the ceremony, The ceaseless burning desires of Hermetic industry.

On the peak of Mount Meru we danced each night, Fear not; we hear your cries! Beyond the Boreas, our slumber is upset, The Earth womb rejects us, our frozen tomb melts. Through gaps in the permafrost our spirits soon escape, And like our brothers in millennia past we migrate. Ever southwards we are drawn so that we may take form, Surveying how the cataclysm has changed the imperfect orb. The pulsing of the symphonies transmitted by the stars, Beats in time and guides us summoning our hearts. When the Earth first rebelled against her true masters, Our brethren fled and walked with man in Lemuria. Repulsive coupling, tarnishing our worth, Brought about destruction of the accursed. Then as half the equinoxes did proceed, The deluge brought Atlantis to its knees. And we, where day and night were in equality, Were buried until we were set free. “Let us look each other in the face. We are Hyperboreans — we know well enough how remote our place is…. Beyond the North, beyond the ice, beyond death — our life, our happiness....” (Friedrich Nietzsche, ‘The Antichrist’, 1888) As far in travel as deep in depth, We soon take our first breath; Inhaling intelligence, Consuming cognisance; We are the true essence On the peak of Mount Meru, we danced each night, The ionosphere illuminated only to remind, Those who had fallen that we are without time, And to fear not; we hear your cries! On the peak of Mount Meru, we danced each night, Fear not; we hear your cries!

about

Demo tracks that include VITRIOL, Ceaseless Burning Desire and the Awakening. These are unmastered versions - recorded in 2010 at the studio of fellow Processian Tommy Duffin in Glasgow, Scotland. There were 3 tracks recorded in the session and the first featuring the new change of line-up. It was a relatively radical change. Tommy left to spread the word at the front. Finch moved to guitar and Andy replaced him on bass. All of these tracks (much enhanced and re-recorded) will appear on the new album 'Covenant of the Cosmos' due out in summer 2016.
