I am hunting darkwraiths because that is what I swore to do
My sword is hungering for all of them to bite into
I will not fail
I cannot fail
Sent by my lord Gwyn to cleanse the land
Of abominations
I cannot fail
Crimson taints my blade as one by one they fall down to my feet
But i will never stop until my oath will be fulfilled
I will never lose
I am one of four knights
My target in sight
And if it is demanded I will gladly give my life
For lord Gwyn I strive
Great power inside
And if it is demanded I will die
Known to all
The knight of wolves: Artorias
Walk the abyss
Until you emerge victorious
Still for my lord I strive
Pride swelling inside
And if it is demanded I will gladly give my life
Countless foes lie dead
Still more are up ahead
And if it is demanded I die
No matter how much blood is spilled there will always be more fiends
Clawing, Biting, hacking, they will try to kill me ceaselessly
I will not fail
I cannot fail
Slowly I am starting to suspect that there's no end to my quest
I cannot fail
Known to all
The knight of wolves: Artorias
Walk the abyss
Until you emerge victorious
I have failed you my lord
The dark is reaching out for me
I don't think I will sustain
Oh, it’s the abyss
Claiming my soul
Turning my senses all on their own
A downward spiral
I don’t know what’s real and what’s not
With a last effort
I’m using my shield
To protect my companion
Sif’s the only friend to me
My mind is slipping
But i have to make sure
I have to make sure
He must survive
Through my own sacrifice
That is the only wish that I need granted
Run my one true friend
Run to live for both of us
Let my sacrifice
Make sure of your survival
As my resolve is slowly growing thin
Darkness is coming to claim me from within
Known to all
The knight of wolves: Artorias
Walk the abyss
Until you emerge victorious

Immortality
Blind albino without scales
Guilty of betrayal out of jealousy
Dwelling in my archives you must have heard the tales
Indulging in my research for immortality
Bringing my kind to the brink of extinction
Now there’s only me
They call me traitor
They call me monstrosity
I am the dragon that butchered them all
Immortal in my crystal cave
I reign supreme
Contemplating treason from the day i was born
With Gravelord, Witch and Lord of Cinder
Putting an end to my race
The prize of cheating death
From Lord Gwyn as reward for my service
The title of “Duke”
They call me traitor
They call me monstrosity
I am the dragon that butchered them all
Immortal in my crystal cave
I reign supreme
They call me traitor
They call me monstrosity
I am the dragon that slaughtered them all
Immortal in my crystal cave
I reign supreme
I discovered the primordial crystal
Immortality
My mind begins to fade
Descent into madness
They call me traitor
They call me monstrosity
I am the dragon that butchered them all
Immortal in my crystal cave
I reign supreme
Immortal in my crystal cave
I reign supreme

Venturing is my life
I’m prepared for the worst
When adventure calls me I just cannot resist
Wherever you go, may you be safe
And when you’re stuck just call upon me
No matter where you from
No matter who you are
Who is there to save you?
The Knights of Catarina
When you’re in trouble, if you’re ever in doubt
Call upon your Onion Bro to bail you out
You can call me stubborn but I pursue my goals
I am willing to risk everything
I am Siegmeyer of Catarina and you shall feel my wrath
Don’t you dare go standing there in my way
You simply lack determination to crush my will
No matter where you from
No matter who you are
Who is there to save you?
The Knights of Catarina
When you’re in trouble, if you’re ever in doubt
Call upon your Onion Bro to bail you out
I know you cannot help but admire the magnificent shape of my armor
With these right kind of curves I am a master of poise
Amazing how i parry without even trying
I failed you
You saved me
This is not how it’s supposed to be
I failed you
You saved me
Once again I owe my life to you
I failed you
You saved me
Now just let me sacrifice myself
I failed you
You saved me
Let me die with my honor in tact
I failed you
You saved me
This is not how it’s supposed to be
I failed you
You saved me
Once again I owe my life to you
I failed you
You saved me
I failed you
You saved me
I would never ask Sieglinde for anything
But as a hollow i wish she’d end me now
No matter where you from
No matter who you are
Who is there to save you?
The Knights of Catarina
When you’re in trouble, if you’re ever in doubt
Call upon your Onion Bro to bail you out

In the Age of Ancients the world was unformed, shrouded by fog
A land of grey crags, arch-trees and everlasting dragons
But then there was fire, and with fire came disparity
Heat and cold, life and death, and of course light and
Heat and cold, life and death, and of course light and
Heat and cold, life and death, and of course light and
Heat and cold, life and death, and of course light and dark
Where do we come from? where do we go?
Where is our origin? does anyone know?
Where do we come from? where do we g?
Is there anyone with answers? I just want to know!
Where do we come from? where do we go?
Where did we originate?
Then, from the dark they came and found the Souls of Lords within the flame
Nito, the First of the Dead, the Witch of Izalith and her daughters of chaos
Gwyn, the Lord of Sunlight, with his faithful knights
And the Furtive Pygmy, so easily forgotten
With the strength of lords, they challenged the dragons
Gwyn's mighty bolts peeled apart their stone scales
The witches weaved great firestorms
Nito unleashed a miasma of death and disease
And Seath the Scaleless betrayed his own and the dragons were no more.
Thus began the Age of Fire
Soon the flames will fade
Only dark remains
Even now, there are only embers and man sees not light
Only endless nights
Where do we come from?
Where do we go?
Where is our origin?
Does anyone know?

Manus
03:23
|

Repeated torture of my body, mind and soul
Somehow still holding on to humanity
My grip tight around my revered pendant
As it is safe I remain sane
And stay unscathed inside my mind
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes all who stand against me
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes everyone who’s daring to oppose me
The pendant’s gone, it’s broken
Man will pay, their cities fall
Mind is slipping, hate is fueling
Powers grow with every day
I am seeking to corrupt all that’s humanity
Complex emotion has no place inside my head
I am only craving to unleash my dark wrath on this world
This bonfire next to me means that my soul is never free
Whether in pain and even when i die
I come back unscathed to ruin all life
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes all who stand against me
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes everyone who’s daring to oppose me
Out of the primordial soup
Born a human archetype
Now a mere perversion of myself
Defiled in death by weaker minds
Oolacile
Oolacile has brought this on
Tempted by a snake to sully my grave
Oolacile
Oolacile has brought this on itself
Tempted by a snake
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes all who stand against me
Father am I of the Abyss
Call me Manus, I rule
My fist crushes everyone who’s daring to oppose me
Out of the primordial soup
Born a human archetype
Dark magic is all i know now
No escaping my five hit combo

Big Hat Logan

I found Sen’s fortress
Learning
Reading every book I can find
Magic
Need to master all the spells
You may have heard from me I am the great master
Everyone adores the things I have gathered
Look at my hat
My hat is amazing
The biggest in the land
Just look at my hat
In search of power I will risk my own mind
My thirst for the arcane might well drive me insane
I see so much more as knowledge is power
You cannot keep me from my books to devour
Look at my big hat
My shiny catalyst
You may not like to admit it but I know for a fact that you really fancy my sage robe
I am Master Logan
Scholar of the soul arts
Member of the Vinheim Dragon School
Searching for the regal collections
Seeking Anor Londo
The Duke’s Archives cannot hide from me much longer
Look at my hat
My hat is amazing
Give it a lick
The magic is tasty
Look at my hat
My hat is amazing
The biggest in the land
Just look at my hat
I found Sen’s fortress
Then I got imprisoned by the scaleless fiend
But the Cursed Undead leads me to freedom
Now to find the library and right back to reading
Homing soulmass in your face
Soul arrow, soul spear and magic shield
Homing soulmass, magic weapon, white dragon breath
For all these spells and many more you owe me
Their discovery and mastery was my destiny
Bow before my legacy

Catacombs

What have I done?
I fused us all into one
Out of a desperate desire to fix my mistakes
Driven by guilt into unholy deeds
Mother, child and father now merged with one another
Who knew my dedication would lead us to devastation
Gather round, I’ll tell my tale but I must warn you, be prepared
For what’s to come, it is second to none
Once we were a child and loving mother and father
But now this family is woven together forever
My love she passed away
Death took my child from me
I was fighting grief but then gave in to desperation
Overcome by sorrow
I stole a gravelord’s power
What was I supposed to do?
I could not forget you
Stealing from Nito was my last chance to save you
Toying with necromancy my last resort
And now I will never be alone again
As pinwheel we are one
Gather round, I’ll tell my tale but I must warn you, be prepared
For what’s to come, it is second to none
Once we were a child and loving mother and father
But now this family is woven together
Now meet Gravelord Nito
Welcome to the Catacombs
Ruled by the first of the dead
Inventor of the Rite of Kindling
Feeding of humanity
To keep the flame alive
Do you remember
Who killed the dragons
Nito’s miasma of death and disease
Now meet Gravelord Nito, the real authority
Raising corpses from their graves to do the bidding
Of their skeleton lord
Simply awaiting the inevitable
Waiting for the dying to take their place among his ranks of the dead

Praise the sun
Praise the sun
Praise the sun
Hey you don’t look hollow
You can call me Solaire, Knight of Astora
As now I am undead I seek my very own sun
What say you to some jolly cooperation?
I must find
My very own sun
When all is said and done
Just don’t forget to praise the sun
When all is said and done
Just don’t forget to praise the sun
After all this searching, I still cannot find it
Was it all a lie?
Have I done this all for nothing?
Oh, my dear sun
What now, what should I do?
My sun, my dear, dear sun
Finally I‘ve found it, I have
My very own sun
I am the sun, I’ve done it
Ah, it’s over
My sun
It’s setting
It is dark
So dark
When all is said and done
Just don’t forget to praise the sun
When all is said and done
Just don’t forget to praise the sun

You came and stepped inside our lair
We are pleased that you dared, now
Meet Sir Ornstein, meet Sir Smough
We will put you to the ground
We don’t need an introduction
We are known throughout Lordran
Dragonslayer, executioner
Come and face your bloody end
Inbetween these ancient columns you are facing mighty foes
Sworn to protect Anor Londo’s lovely mistress Gwynevere
Lightning spear and massive hammer terminate all hopes to win
Killing fools who enter here is our way to serve Lord Gwyn
You want
My armor
But you
Get rekt
Manage to kill one of us
The other reaches twice his size
Asbsorbing powers
Increasing might
We don’t need an introduction
We are known throughout Lordran
Dragonslayer, executioner
Come and face your bloody end
Oh, you poor foolish bastard
Seems you just killed my friend
Now you face the wrath of the
Remaining one
Not even Solaire can save you
He will praise the sun no more
From the moment you walked in here
Death and pain and agony
You came and stepped inside our lair
We are pleased that you dared, now
Meet Sir Ornstein, meet Sir Smough
Come and face your bloody end

Bed of life
Bed of chaos
A mother and her children
Always fear the flame
Bed of chaos
Heed the old family portrait
Always fear the flame
Mother of all demons
Always fear the flame
Gwyn’s great hope
To prolong the age of fire
Recreating the very first flame
So the god’s powers never fade
Bed of life
Bed of chaos
The Witch of Izalith and her seven daughters
Birthed the Flame of Chaos
But then they got devoured
Only one daughter could
Manage to flee
She is called Quelana
And is mother to pyromancy
Quelaag and the Fair Lady
Reside down at the base of Blighttown
While beneath them their brother
The Ceaseless Discharge
Always fear the flame
Left by the engulfing flame
There was a seedbed giving
Life to the twisted creatures
Known now by all as demons
Bed of life
Bed of chaos
Always fear the flame
Always fear the flame
Lost Izalith
Always fear the flame

My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album. Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band. Love everything they produce.

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.

Since Spenser Moore replaced Blackburn I’ve frankly appreciated Inferi far more. I feel that his drumming improves the overall sound of the band a great deal, but it’s probably just a personal style preference. Either way, Of Sunless Realms was a great foreshadowing of the epic Vile Genesis.
