The Earthly Will 05:48
lyrics
buy track
Materialising codes through your mind, Bypassing conventions and timelines, You used to rupture curtains shadowed And from the abyss like sea to see! You can't let it go, for now. There's still much more to learn. Unbolt vibes from empty space, Avoiding darkness we've earned. May you sleep in such bless. Forever chained unto your Grand Spirit... To your earthly will. Nights are days in such bless. Forever carved to your earthly will... To your earthly will. New visions overcome the soul... Can't you see connections from beyond Guiding the essence ov microscopic world? You're in touch with enlightened eyes And with glory you rise from the embrace.

Breaking The Oath 05:24
lyrics
buy track
Desire is one thing burning inside. The fire, compelling and existent, Calls me to pulsate high at its purpose. I drown deep down in bliss with harmony. I'm a wolf chanting at the moon, A bright spirit linking dimensions. I fall in the hand ov the Seventh, Slithering in vast mist ov the Unknown. Walking on shadow's prey, The light binds me to the archaic lore. Recovering from the past and decay, Where dust did fill me to the core. Alive, I now am flying again... Breaking the oath in-between Me and all things the system dressed. Alive, I now am flying again, Passing by what's for me a cynic cure. Slithering in vast mist ov the Unknown...

The Atlant Shore 05:05
lyrics
buy track
Oh God... Or any man-made names, I commit myself to thee... I received the echoes from a new era Keeps closing their gates from vicious witnesses. The horizon tends to change; fading below seas. Heavens twisted itself into crystals draperies. Crossed the line forever lost in time, Ghosting the land ov endless screams, Cold distance shivers my beating heart, Alone, I'm left here by the Atlant shore. They face the sun like shield against gun And their tongue haunts me - paralyses me. They command the great wind as Eole's breath And their black eyes lit white this lair beneath. Leading the way where the very last light astray, Fractured memories cast now their spells beyond centuries. As two blinded lovers sharing pale imageries, I shall confine myself with these pure fantasies.

Terra Mortis 05:17
lyrics
buy track
So many colours suited my palette Even a new blue came out from the depth! And now that the outlines are gone, Where are they vivid colours ov the sun? A stranger in the open calm field and sky Daylight died in displeasure to enter And now, for the true light only dwells inside, We shall be damned to black – Blind, like bats. Creep on your knees, drunken in shame, With the black velvet ov their mockeries. Rushing through chasm ov self-destruct legacy, I am still a ashy fraction waned in stupidity. But, unlike the shades chained to this world, I shall defy my death by the vehemence of Terra! And heavy grey shall move on, Conceding the light where many colours roar. The path to my glorious rainbow is more, More than that ephemeral mist at dawn. Sadden me with your caballed rites! Seduce the spider's wide connecting web Alike the tamer to its whitewashed plebs. It maddens my mind even while I writhe! Enswathed in boundless fear ov each other, Leave behind your thirst ov needless matters. Paint bright your inner course and heed the end For our children appease the beast now awaken.

Queen of my world Carved in my blood Through my wild open veins Like rivers run red And sharpened leaves From the autumn fled Where nostalgia binds That celestial ode...

Primal Wasteland 05:39
lyrics
buy track
To face the faith with the power ov true will, To fight against darkness with the power ov Evil. In the primal wasteland... Know your enemy. Conflict leads to misery. Fear is the weapon, Courage is your reason. Defy every kings. Spread out your wings. Chains broken away, Time to make them pay. To face the faith with the power ov true will, To fight against darkness with the power ov Evil. In the primal wasteland... In the primal wasteland, Oh... best watch your back! When daggers come out from shades, To snare your flesh in every cracks.

The Golden Age 06:29
lyrics
buy track
Believers ov the Cosmos, Hear the bells ringing. Witnesses of outer realms, Shout the truth - break the cell. Something's dying... Something inside you. And somehow Around you. Ignite the seed, See where it leads. Reform conventions, We must be Legion. Wake up from the nightmare, A wall ov lies make you unaware. Like a thick fog over sea, A blurry vision ov what supposed to be. Debate - Dominate. Higher will trans-mutate. Dismiss - Erase. Shape your own Golden Age. ''To become One. Unity must not be force combined, As diversity must not be separated. Its the acceptation ov other traits. For all its facets must remain themselves In splendour ov their own light.''

about

Sixth album.
Year of release is 2015.

.: | Portrait | :.

Je me réveille pour mieux comprendre ce qui m'entoure, voyant en tout une partie de l'univers, percevant en tout une partie de moi-même, absolue et belle.

Cet album puise ses influences dans un rock-metal rétro expérimental. Les riffs de guitare sont pensés différemment, la batterie fait ses bonds tantôt funk, tantôt rock et tantôt métal, le chant est clair et les thèmes sont la nature, l'occulte, l'ésotérisme et la société actuelle.

Au cours des dernières étapes de l'enregistrement, la plupart des chansons de l'album ont été perdues en raison de problèmes techniques avec le disque dur (panne de courant) ; heureusement, elles ont toutes été recréées à l'aide de vieux mp3 trouvé par miracle sur une clef USB.

Toutes les chansons ont été écrites sur Guitar Pro après cet épisode, pour que tout soit sûr... et cool.

.: | Portrayal | :.

There is a time when the living wakes up to get a better understanding of the universe, seeing in all things a part of himself, absolute and beautiful.

Digging in a more retro genre, Terra Mortis is a very unique concept of Bernatchez. This album draws its influences from experimental retro rock-metal. The guitar riffs are thought out differently, the drums are sometimes funk, sometimes rock and sometimes metal, the vocals are clear and the themes are nature, the occult, esotericism and today's society.

During the last steps of recording, most of the album songs were once lost after technical problems with the hard drive;
gladly, all of them has been re-created using mp3s backup and such.

All the songs has been written with Guitar Pro after this episode, keeping everything safe... and cool.
