lyrics
Omens appear
Calling for our annihilation
Future unclear
What will become the answer to our prayers
Fire rains down from the sky
The stars collapse, the women cry
Deaths the decider
Of conquest and the fate of men
Releasing forth a great disease
Bringing the city to its knees
Deaths the divider
Between mankind and their gods
Blood of a conqueror,
Flows with his lust for gold
A fabled idol
Of which the legends told
Bringing a wave of destruction
From a distant land
Our gilded empire
Shall fall by his hand
Tenochitlan
Flayed skin and sacrifice
Consume their flesh to pay the price
We follow the rituals every day
Spilling blood to keep the gods at bay
Still conquered by our own deity
Reigning in death supremacy
This is a war for the survival of our tribe
God has turned his back on all of us
And death is the only escape from his wrath
Tenochitlan
Calling for our annihilation
Future unclear
What will become the answer to our prayers
Fire rains down from the sky
The stars collapse, the women cry
Deaths the decider
Of conquest and the fate of men
Releasing forth a great disease
Bringing the city to its knees
Deaths the divider
Between mankind and their gods
Blood of a conqueror,
Flows with his lust for gold
A fabled idol
Of which the legends told
Bringing a wave of destruction
From a distant land
Our gilded empire
Shall fall by his hand
Tenochitlan
Flayed skin and sacrifice
Consume their flesh to pay the price
We follow the rituals every day
Spilling blood to keep the gods at bay
Still conquered by our own deity
Reigning in death supremacy
This is a war for the survival of our tribe
God has turned his back on all of us
And death is the only escape from his wrath
Tenochitlan

supported by 4 fans who also own “Tenochtitlan”
Powerful, plaintive expression of the fathomless sorrow of our suffering cetaceans and their depthless home, together with the indescribable loveliness of their distant blue-black realm. I feel as much interstellar space here as I do deep ocean, equally crushing and buoying.

The Burning Spears Of Crimson Agony (Demo)
by Lamp Of Murmuursupported by 4 fans who also own “Tenochtitlan”
Some of the best raw black metal I’ve heard in a while. So many infectious riffs it’s absurd. Easily my favorite release from lamp of Murmuur.

supported by 4 fans who also own “Tenochtitlan”
An interesting fusion of black metal and jazz, with inspiration from various other forms of metal. There is a lot to like here, and many pleasant surprises. However, it does not always seem to form a cohesive whole.
