Anonymus (Canadian Metal Band):
After the release of their critically acclaimed top 10 albums, Anonymus have enjoyed nationwide success. The band has sold no less than 30,000 albums, appeared in many videos and in several movie and TV soundtracks. Their career has been marked by a never ending journey of pure sweat and determination.

The Anonymus philosophy is simple; Do or Die Friendship. The bands success and evolution is directly attributed to this way of life. From their first meeting in grade school Carlos Araya (drums), Marco Calliari (guitar and vocals) with twin brothers Daniel (guitar) and Oscar Souto (bass and vocals) have developed a tight symbiosis. All this energy has been channeled to produce a powerful and furious gust of Metal.

Anonymus boldly reached for a larger international market with "Instinct", who was produced by British studio wiz Colin Richardson (Slipknot, Machine Head, Fear Factory...). The album covers the classic metal gambit while being fed by experimental doses of hardcore and opera. This breakthrough CD revealed the band's true and exciting potential. In support for the album the band toured relentlessly and eventually crossed the pond to Europe where they toured with Watcha (Sony) and Out (Roadrunner).

"Daemonium" was released in 2002. The band renewed with nationwide success by topping the charts and was made top ten album of the year by many Metal radio stations across Canada. The video "Why be the judge" was released and aired by Muchmusic, MusiquePlus, and other broadcasters. The band toured Nationwide and drew attention by producing their own show in Montreal's Metropolis in front of 2000 fans.

A special side project called "L'Academie du Massacre" was released in 2003 in which Anonymus combined its efforts with insane folk singer; Mononc'Serge. The CD would find no less than 15000 takers and a massive tour took 18 months to complete. A Live DVD has just been released.

During this same year, Oscar and Carlos started a new side project, this time with Joey Belladonna (Ex-Anthrax at the time). Together they toured the U.S. and Canada. The band wrote the bulk of the material for a new Belladonna album. The project unfortunately had to be postponed due to Joey's comeback with Anthrax.

The band has released in Canada their new album "Chapter Chaos begins" on October 24, 2006. Ten new aggressive songs have made their way to the final cut. The album was produced by Jean-Francois Dagenais (Kataklysm, Misery Index...) and mastered by Peter In de Betou (Meshuggah, Dimmu Borgir...).

After a search that lasted several months, Anonymus announced that Jef Fortin is officially the band's new guitar player. Carlos Araya states that his new partner "is all about rock! He brings new influences and freshness to the band's sound. He has been touring with us for five years; he is already part of the family".

Coupable
Anonymus Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Lyrics: Oscar Souto]

Je cherche comme une bête
Mort de faim et de soif
Sans queue ni tête
J'ai su trouver ma proie
Un regard si perçant
Un sourire invitant

Guidé par mon flair
Plaisir de la chair
À n'en perdre la raison
Tentation
Une passion obsessive
Vicieuse et corrosive

Tranquillement vers elle
J'ai mordu à l'hameçon
Elle est si belle
Impossible de dire non
Son parfum, je respire
Son corps, je désire
Instinct animal
Besoin si vital

Coupable d'avoir osé
Coupable d'avoir aimé
Coupable d'avoir pêché
Accord mutuel
Je m'offre à celle
Qui voudra bien de moi
Amour éphémère?

Être très chère
Offre-toi à moi

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Anonymus's song Coupable speak of a person consumed by their animalistic instincts and desires. The singer compares their search for satisfaction to that of a wild animal, starving and thirsty, in search of prey. They describe how they have found their prey, captivated by their piercing gaze and inviting smile, and have given into their carnal desires. The singer savors the pleasure of the flesh that has made them lose their reason, describing it as an obsession that is both addictive and destructive.

The singer's voice is seductive and unapologetic, owning to their guilt of having dared to indulge in forbidden desires. They feel guilty of having loved, sinned, and of being guilty, but they are not alone in their actions, as they also acknowledge the other party's consent. The singer is fully offering themselves to whoever wants them, accepting that this love is temporary and fleeting, but still worth it.

Overall, the song's message is about giving in to primal instincts and desires, understanding the consequences and accepting them with open arms. The lyrics exude passion and intensity, making it a thought-provoking addition to Anonymus's body of work.
