GENUS VACUITATIS EVERYTHING I WAS IS DEAD TRAPPED AND CURSED IN TOTAL DARKNESS DAWN IS SO BLACK BLACK AS THE NIGHT COMING BACK FROM HELL, A GHOST FROM DUSK A BROKEN SPIRIT IN A BROKEN BODY THE DAWN IS SO BLACK BLACK AS THE NIGHT SCARS IN THE SKY SCARS ON THE FLESH SCARS ON THE SAND SCARS ON SCARS AN EMPTY HOLE IN MY SOUL WITH an ECHO THE SOUND OF EMPTINESS, the sound of emptiness My LONELINESS FELLOW, my loneliness fellow SCARS IN THE SKY SCARS ON THE FLESH SCARS ON THE SAND SCARS ON SCARS AN EMPTY HOLE IN MY SOUL WITH an ECHO THE SOUND OF EMPTINESS, the sound of emptiness My LONELINESS FELLOW, my loneliness fellow regarde autour de toi… L’enfer…. c’est… C’est l’enfer ici Faceless gods were thrown to the ground. With great mystic wounds Victims of despair with silence of centuries as a prayer Les voix se sont tues, tu comprends? elles t’ont abandonnées. Tu es seul maintenant, seul From the Stones of old paths To the ancient ways lost in oblivion Sacred monuments of yesterday Sacred monuments reborn today

THE PROPHECY OF AGONY I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS The almighty clarity Dies with ceremony Enemy within the prophecy of agony Est-ce que tu les vois ? Celles qui marchent sur le chemin en contrebas, Clartés fantomatiques drapées de ténèbres I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS The almighty clarity Dies with ceremony Enemy within the prophecy of agony TORRENTS OF TEARS DRIED UP TODAY UNDER THE SEASON OF ASHES’ SUN Ici Dans mon caveau de solitude Où deux colonnes en supportent le toit Je suis seul En bas je vois couler la rivière de la vie Ses hôtes, omnipotents navigateurs Ne sont que silhouettes fantomatiques Ses hôtes, esclaves en sursis Ne sont que de l’eau pour ma soif I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS I SEE HIM ON TOP OF THE CLIFF DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT I HEAR HIM SHOUTING TO THE WINDS TO THE HEART OF DARKNESS I FEAR IT / I FEAR IT I FEAR IT / I FEAR IT IT’S HERE Oh FACING ME

SULFUR WINDS RITUAL BLACK SONGS I SING THEY TALKS ABOUT DEATH AND LIFE I WAIT BEHIND THE DOOR WHEN YOU KNOCK I WILL NOT OPEN NOW I SING WITH THE GODS I DANCE FOR THEM IN DARKNESS WE BURN THE FIRE, THE FIRE IS BLACK The sleeping beauty will never wake up Her blue eyes don’t cry anymore her cold hand, her cold heart oh her eternal smile At the feet of centenary trees, fornication feeding their roots with blood sacrifice, sacrifice wind howls words, and you don’t hear them ancient words, he whispers to you today is sad the tasteless night lay down near me wind howls words, and you don’t hear them ancient words, he whispers to you The sleeping beauty will never wake up Her blue eyes don’t cry anymore her cold hand, her cold heart her eternal smile At the feet of centenary trees, fornication feeding their roots with blood sacrifice, sacrifice wind howls words, and you don’t hear them ancient words, he whispers to you today is sad the tasteless night lay down near me wind howls words, and you don’t hear them ancient words, he whispers to you no more sounds, nothing is left and the night steals the colours…

NEKYA CATHARSIS Oh ! all know it There is ice in our hearts Frozen by the black art all know it oh together At the gates of hell No farewell No goodbye First, they burnt our fields They came in our homes In our beds Then they have closed the doors They have closed our mouths With chains oh together At the gates of hell No farewell No goodbye Le temps se fige, sur le seuil des mondes, et lentement se déchire le voile des réalités. SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE Des mots plus anciens que le monde furent prononcés et des créatures furent éveillées. Les trompettes retentirent, et les portes noires s’ouvrirent. Laissant s’échapper d’assourdissantes nuées. HERE IS THE KEY TO BURN WITH ME TO DIE WITH ME First, they burnt our fields They came in our homes In our beds Then they have closed the doors They have closed our mouths With chains SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE WALK WITH ME WALK WITH ME BURN WITH ME DIE WITH ME UNSPOKEN MAGIC SPELL THE DAYLIGHT IS GONE THE NIGHT WILL BE SO LONG THE DAYLIGHT IS GONE THE NIGHT WILL BE SO LONG SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE SIDE BY SIDE WALK WITH ME WALK WITH ME BURN WITH ME DIE WITH ME

FOURTH REIGN OVER OPACITIES AND BEYOND Mes Bien-aimés ignorants Nous sommes bien plus que de la chair et du sang Vous le savez, le commencement n’est que renouvellement Maudites, elles sont les bergères du troupeau Les Détentrices de la vérité Les porteuses de lumière dans la nuit venteuse Nos mères de l’invisible, nues aux rituels Maudites, elles parlent en silence Et le silence leur répond Plus de 4000 ans sont maintenant passés Ce soir elles l’ont vu. Ce soir bien aimés ignorants, ce soir nous serons enfin libérés My beloved sinners, tonight you have to look at the sky My beloved sinners, tonight the lie will die Bien-aimés ignorants Elles sont le bouclier des vivants Le silence invincible lors du brasier Devenant enfin notre phare dans la nuit Bien-aimés ignorants le règne sur la noirceur arrive Bien-aimés ignorants ce règne est notre Bien-aimés ignorants le règne sur la noirceur arrive Bien-aimés ignorants ce règne est notre From the otherside they are watching the styx they burn their flesh and drink the blood of the weaks for those who prefer to close the door Make them believe that they are satanic whores hatred and cursed at the dawn of their lives Nocturnal girls and wise wives The Queen dressed in black reigning alone Over opacities and beyond And beyond And beyond…..

THROUGH THE ASTRAL DOOR in purple smoke, a door appeared. no need to knock, just open it, tell me what do you want to see? The void or infinity The void or infinity Oh I can’t feel my body, My mind is blank, heaven and hell, all is in pieces everything in me goes so fast, the voices come back, am I me? Am I here? everything is so bright, there is no more sky, no more ground, no more wound I am so far, so far from us, lost, so far from me. Oh I can’t feel my body, My mind is blank, heaven and hell, all is in pieces everything in me goes so fast, the voices come back, am I me? Am I here? everything is so bright, there is no more sky, no more ground, no more wound Est-ce que tu les entends au loin ? les chants des morts, ahahah ils viennent pour toi…

EMPTY GRAVES Here is your last day You can’t hide or run away Maybe it’s time to pray Choice is yours ! The past is gone In a second No tear in eyes I know why we have to die A FIGHT TO DEATH FOR TRUTH OR LIGHT THE GIFT OF LIFE YOU DON’T deserve IT AN ENDLESS FALL FROM A CLOUD THE GIFT OF LIFE YOU DON’T need IT We’re falling into empty graves We’re falling into emtpy graves We’re falling into empty graves We’re falling into empty graves No more arrow for the bow face The invisible enemy it seems so long it seems so far no tears in the eyes I know why we have to lie A FIGHT TO DEATH FOR TRUTH OR LIGHT THE GIFT OF LIFE YOU DON’T deserve IT AN ENDLESS FALL FROM A CLOUD THE GIFT OF LIFE YOU DON’T need IT We’re falling into empty graves We’re falling into emtpy graves We’re falling into empty graves We’re falling into empty graves Je les Regarde tomber des cieux jusqu’aux plus profonds des abimes Ils ne savent rien de la vie, de la mort, de ce qu’ils sont. Ils ne sont rien Comme un orage sur l’océan, Ce ne sont que des gouttes de pluie qui se perdent dans les vagues Crois-tu vraiment qu’ils puissent rêver ? ils ne sont rien Ils ne sont rien Ask me if I can dream Ask me if I can dream Ask me if i can dream I can dream I can dream Oh I can dream

about

Here comes the new chapter.
ACOD is ready to unveil Fourth Reign Over Opacities And Beyond , the perfect sequel of the previous opus.
A shiny black death metal with epic parts who reveals the beauty and the greatness of the depths.
This saga tells the long journey of a uncommon soul into the abyss. Loosing faith in men and gods, but also in himself. Facing his own fears in form of chimeras.
Trying to understand what this tormented afterlife is, as a strong similarity with our current lives.
But everything happens for a reason and the revelation could be made at the end of his path...
