Kalos Kai Agathos
Casus Belli Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You come to this world
With the mission to fulfill
Causative Power of Cosmos
Manifest itself in You
You are Human God, Divine Human

Your genes are the ground
Progress and will are the corn
Work of life is the spike
The harvest - Culture and Civilisation,
You are Human God, Divine Human

The stronger, the wiser, the more beautiful-
the more splendid
A maze of mediocre around You
Shape reality with Your will
Übermensch - so you'll be named by flincher

Man, God, Hero




Warlike spirit dwells in You
Mind leads the brutal force

Overall Meaning

"Kalos Kai Agathos" is a song by Casus Belli that reflects on the concept of each human coming to this world with a unique mission to fulfill. The song views humans as divine beings with the power to manifest the causative power of the cosmos, and they are therefore seen as "Human God, Divine Human." The lyrics go on to suggest that this divine power resides in the genes of humans and is further fueled by progress and personal willpower. Ultimately, the song posits that humans have a responsibility to cultivate and harvest culture and civilization, with the end goal being to shape reality through their willpower and become an "Übermensch" - the stronger, wiser, and more beautiful version of themselves.

Unikat.
Jest w tym materiale coś niespotykanego, nigdy wcześniej i później nie słyszałem czegoś z tym klimatem.

Karol Szczesniak

Mam odwagę powiedzieć, że to jeden z albumów który zmienił moje postrzeganie muzy. To były pierwsze blasty, które słyszałem (wtedy byłem na etapie Metalliki) i pierwszy przekaz z taką ideologią. Do dziś uważam, że jest to przerażająco dobry album tylko nikt u nas tego nie promował a tym bardziej dziś, delikatnie mówiąc, nie promuje. Chłopaki mogliby być dziś z Vaderem i Behemothem a moda na black wciąż gdzieś się przewija więc nie jest to wymarły gatunek jak np. gothic metal.

twuj miły kolega maciej

Jebać modę na BM, dobrze że nikt nie promuje - to nie obsrane komercyjne ścierwo pokroju behemoth, czy nudnego już Vadera.

Nie oczekiwalem ze znajde tutaj ten album. Kupilem ich kasete audio pewnie z 15 lat temu. Zaplacilem bardzo malo za nowa kasete w sklepie. Pamietam ze bylem zaskoczony jak wysoka jakosc muzyki za tak niska cene. To chyba bylo 8zl w sklepie podczas gdy zespoly jak Acid Drinkers cenily sie 15zl.
Super sie slucha. Co za historia musi sie kryc za tym zespolem....
