The name Amduscia is derived from a duke of Hell who occurs in medieval demonology, who was said to perform concerts without the audience ever seeing the instruments being played.
Amduscia formed in the spring of 1999. Polo, Edgar and Raul decided to express in their music the pain, the cruelty, the madness, the rage produced by living in a difficult place, "the real Hell, named Mexico City..."
Following their first release, a demo named "Perdicion, Perversion, Demencia," the German label, Out of Line, inserted the first of Amduscia's tracks for the world, "Evil Song" and "Profano tu Cruz," in its compilations, Machineries of Joy Vol. 1 & 2, with much success. In November of 2003, the acclaimed debut album of Amduscia, "Melodies for the Devil," was born and it remained in the number five place on the DAC for several weeks.
This release was followed in 2005 by two singles: the "Dead or Alive" EPCD, which remained in the number 5 place as a single on the DAC, and "Impulso Biomechanico," a limited edition MCD. Amduscia's sophomore full-length album, "From Abuse to Apostasy," was released in 2006 on Out of Line Records (Europe) and Metropolis Records (North America). In addition, Amduscia has participated in the Out of Line Records compilations "Awake the Machines" Volumes 5 (2005, Disc 1) and 6 (2008, Disc 2) and has participated in European festivals such as WaveGotikTreffen (2004) and Mera Luna (2005), Out of line Festival 2008.

Freak Knowledge
Amduscia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our remains are the best
If you have a pact
With your own hell
Immersed in dangerous ways
Take the knife
Kiss your second cross
Now is your turn
You´re not cursed
You are a soul
That all the time is freak
And doesn´t have a lord
You are a soul
That all the time is freak
And doesn´t have a lord
Incomplete, never hear that thing
That someone said
Impatient, never feel that hurt
With all your infected heart
The knowledge is your truth
The knowledge is your truth
Finish the wish
What is the people want?
You are so freak
While your people die
Finish the wish
What is the people want?
You are so freak
While your people die
Immersed in dangerous ways
Take the knife
Kiss your second cross
And drop your kingdom
Now is your turn
You´re not cursed
You are a soul
That all the time is freak
And doesn´t have a lord
You are a soul
That all the time is freak
And doesn´t have a lord
Finish the wish
What is the people want?
You are so freak
While your people die
Finish the wish
What is the people want?
You are so freak
While your people die
The lyrics of Amduscia's "Freak Knowledge" convey a sense of rebellion, self-awareness, and perhaps even a glimpse of a dystopian reality. The opening lines "Our sense is not a fiction, Our remains are the best" alludes to the idea that our senses and perceptions of reality may not necessarily be fantasy. The next few lines "If you have a pact, With your own hell... Immerse in dangerous ways, Take the knife, Kiss your second cross, And drop your kingdom" seem to suggest a sense of self-destruction or a willingness to break free from conventional societal norms. This points to the idea of individuality and that sometimes we must be willing to lose everything in order to find ourselves.
The chorus of "You're not cursed, You are a soul, That all the time is freak, And doesn't have a lord" is a proclamation of self-empowerment; this is also emphasized by the lyrics "Incomplete, never hear that thing, That someone said, Impatient, never feel that hurt, With all your infected heart". The idea of feeling incomplete, and the desire to find a sense of completeness within oneself is an idea which is reflected throughout the song. The concluding lyrics "Finish the wish, What is the people want?, You are so freak, While your people die" appear to be a call to action, encouraging listeners to overcome the societal norms and to pursue their dreams with a sense of urgency, as they risk complacency in a world that is suffering.
