lyrics
This cloudy morning promised nothing good
Icy wind carried rumors of war to my ears
No battle ever brought anything good
To this land, to these people - only death and tears
Sullen riders came from far behind the hills
To proclaim the orders of the ruthless king
Oppressive taxes and the seizure of our supplies
To feed the thousands who march into their demise
Domini, reges, cleptae
Domini, reges, cleptae
This world is a chessboard for masters and kings
But just a snake pit for their serfs and slaves
We pay for their madness with our silver and blood
For their schemes and greed we kill each other an get buried in mud
Domini, reges, cleptae
Domini, reges, cleptae
I clench my fist and raise it to the sky
To curse the mighty men and their ignorance which never dies
They have their swords, I have only bitter words
They steal my pride and goods and I watch how gold turns to rust
Brutally awoken from the illusion
That man forges his own destiny
Cause when it stands, your life's construction, with it's rivets' blinding shine
The greed of the mighty ones will be the rust that eats it all
From rich to poor in the blink of an eye
Life's perfection never seemed so fragile
All those years of diligence – swallowed by the tyrants' greed
Crowned rats who steer our fortune, a shameless breed!

Atmospheric death/doom metal is slowly becoming one of my favourite genres and Officium Triste is on top of it. Rich and diverse, this album is a must. Warangelic

UK Doom / Death Metal. This is extremely nice. Some very nice vocals together with some incredibly intelligent & varied doom style musicianship. This is not a genre that is known for inventivity & I confess that I usually get bored after a while... Not the case here at all! These guys really like to give you their all & then some! Highly recommended! bmurator

Do you know that feeling of facing a cold, misty autumn day when you're dressed for it, in all your waterproofs, a good pair of boots, and you can just enjoy the atmosphere? This album is that, but for your ears. doobat
