lyrics

The titan's gift, a most potent ordination,
The power of the sun exists within our hands.
A sacred branch of flame,
Energy perpetual, the lifeblood of our nation.

A beating heart that destroys all it touches,
A dichotomy of life and destruction,
With limitless potential, the fire rages.
This is man's first real lesson: Everything burns.

Suddenly the enemy no longer stands a chance,
Watch the flames reveal that this world was never his at all.

We watch his flesh burn, his bones dissolve in fire.

We will be the titans of the Earth that we seek to create and conquer.
We exist to incinerate the filth
And cleanse the world with our gift of fire.

We will cleanse the world with the gift of fire.

Prosperity and morality,
Can there be more natural enemies?
We watch their walls crumble, we watch our armies grow
With flame and sword in hand, we watch our enemies fall
To the might of our fire.

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. Obstacle of Affliction

This album is one in a million. The first time I heard it, I know I am hearing something special, something that would persist. This does not just stay in your playlist, this stays in your mind as well, occupying a small portion of your being. It's the beautiful. Warangelic

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. Gruso

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive
