DESCRIPTION:
Song: Four Waters
Band: Teratism
Album: Prelude to the Second Death (2013 Demo)

The song "Four Waters" is taken from Teratism's 2013 demo which showcases two compositions that will appear on their fifth full-length studio album, "The Second Death", a series of eleven recordings that connect the hells or spheres of black magick.

"Four Waters" combine voicings, rhythms, textures and incantations, working together as a magickal emanator of demonic energy currents from the infernal sphere of Arva ha Mayim (Arbamayim), the palace of four elemental waters, whose demon queen is Leviathan, the beast of the water, the dragon of the unconscious and death from whom all other dragons emerge.

Teratism formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2000 and have since maintained an active recording and touring schedule, garnering their rightful throne within the halls of monumental Black Metal artistry. They are: V. Wrath (Vocals), Murder (Guitars), Desekrator (Guitars, Drums), and Gilles de Rais (Bass).

"Four Waters"

In the palace of the most high
Standing upon the highest floor (of white alabaster)
I said unto the infinite, "There are two waters
For I am a priest of the Order of the Second Death
Sworn to the sovereignty of their high pontiffs
Demons Anammelech and Adrammelech
The dueling gods of everlasting conflict"

Therefore hast though from thine right hand
Cast me at my behest into the midst of four waters
Arva ha Mayim, Palace of the queen of dragons
Where my spirit copulates with the winged worm
She whose weeping's are storms of terror
Whose stillborn children are islands of suffering
Where the dispersing ravens of entropy
Circle in eternal cycles above four loveless seas:

Waters of weeping -- despair -- water of water
Waters of creations -- warfare -- water of fire
Waters of the ocean -- death -- water of earth
Waters of the false sea -- error -- water of air

Crushing, freezing misery, blind enumerations
The mistress of endless division
Queen of living death, I enter into your palace
Of free will, despising the one true god
By oath sworn to dwell in your charnel black palace
Forever entering the liquid womb of hate
As you endlessly birth the blood of chaos
A devouring sickness polluting the streams of infinity
