The first material released was the demo "Leptospirose Canina" launched almost a little over 1 year of the creation of the band, the demo is totally botched not only her as the other two following, with one instrument or sometimes none, and many squalling, brought very bad sound and totally botched, mobile recorded and released in Tapes.

After that in less than one month left the other two demos "Private Possuída" and "Destruição Auditiva" both with a sound much more rotten and aggressive than the first but the Destruição Auditiva is completely inaudible, with hisses to the limit and deafening noises which makes it one of the most annoying things to be heard from all previously released and that was what Luis wanted at the time, make the sound more anti-hearing possible.

Their first album was released three months later, entitled "Esgoto Sonoro", the disc that Luis said to be the real noise "raw" or True Noise, distorted noise off the vocal squeaks scale, soil and totally out of line battery of other instruments, but the disc is a favorite of people who likes the noise rawer and badly done in the same year (2013/2014) came out a single sound that is one of the most known band the Darkness rot which also won a video clip, Luis did not put the sound in Esgoto Sonoro disk as thought he did not fit the album and soil should be released.

After another stage of 4 months of production in August 2015 leaves the 3rd studio album entitled "Light Of Repentance", a disc with a much higher production to previous and debuting the first full-length with Damage Records. In 2016 Luis Fernando decided to go on hiatus with new album "Superstitions" for an indefinite end in your project. Superstitions so far is the disc with better acceptance in the underground means to all other previous ones, has a much higher quality and was better thought out, in each track.

Ataque Epilético Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Detention of his soul
You are now at the critical point
Do you suffer inside
And persists out
There is no right or wrong after
You will have to pay here and now

Lying on their own tears

You will see a light
Will that change will bring you
Like a snake you crawled
On a dirty floor he felt yourself
His weapon
Here now
Living your penance

A suffering look
Close clouds to heaven
Spilling drops of forgiveness
Over your head
Relieving your mind
Clarifying your vision
About the world
About the life
On the future

Death is not the end of it
Life is not the beginning
His face will be remembered by the winds

His body will be taken to infinity
Your soul will your future

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ataque Epilético's song "Penance" discuss the concept of atonement and the consequences of one's actions. The first stanza sets the tone, portraying a person whose soul is detained or trapped. They are at a critical point where they must face the internal suffering they have been experiencing. The lyrics suggest that this suffering persists and will not go away easily. There is also a recognition that there is no absolute right or wrong, but regardless of that, the person will have to face the consequences of their actions in the present moment.

The second stanza describes the emotional state of the person, lying in their own tears. However, amidst the darkness, they see a light, symbolizing a glimmer of hope or change. It implies that this change will transform them, just as a snake crawls and sheds its old skin. The person is portrayed as being on a dirty floor, a symbol of their current state, but they find strength within themselves, represented by their weapon. They are now living their penance, implying they are accepting responsibility for their past actions.

The following lines convey a sense of relief and liberation. The sufferer's gaze turns to the sky, where clouds draw close, metaphorically bringing forgiveness. The drops of forgiveness spill over their head, cleansing their mind and clarifying their perspective on the world and life. This process helps them gain clarity and a renewed vision for the future.

The final lines suggest that death is not the ultimate endpoint, and life is not simply a new beginning. The person's face will be remembered by the winds, an ephemeral but eternal presence. Their body will continue on, taken to infinity, while their soul determines their future.

Overall, "Penance" is a song that explores the themes of introspection, accountability, and the possibility of redemption. It highlights the need to confront one's internal struggles and accept the consequences of their actions in order to find peace and clarity.

And does it continue to manifest externally

You navigated through life with cunning and deceit

On a dirty floor he felt yourself
On a filthy surface, he felt his own existence
