During 1992 Eminenz guested for a visiting CARCASS and delivered further demos 'Ghost', 'Preacher Of Darkness' and 'Blasphemy Live'. The band had by now been augmented by keyboard player Benedict Kern. The group's debut album 'Exorial' arrived via the Lethal label in 1994. However, shortly after it's release both Kern and Zwerg made their exit. By 1995 the gap in the ranks had been plugged by keyboard player Lorenzo and bassist Black Abyss, Darkman having manoeuvred over to the guitar role.
'The Heretic' album ensued capitalised on by support gigs to Mayhem once again and Marduk. Eminenz would then switch labels to the Last Episode label for 1998's 'Anti- Genesis'. Further line-up shuffles found Iten out and Heretic coming in on drums. This latest recruit would depart too though after laying down drums on the 'Blackest Dimension' album. Eminenz duly drafted Illeies on drums as well as Micha, the latter boosting Eminenz up to a three guitar compliment. Guitarist Karsten Breitung also operates Belmez.
Early demos would be collected together for the 2001 vinyl release 'Deathfall', limited to 500 copies. Late October of 2004 saw the band on tour in Europe, packaged with a heavyweight billing comprising Morrigan, Abigail and Anael.
Jesus Wept Nevermore
Eminenz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In mark of satan
A promise i rule this world
Oh leviathan
Master of hell and lord of the abyss
In view of death
I call your name
I hear the solutions of your enigma im your
Servant for you my soul
For me by blessings
Im your sacrifice but you leave me alone
In view of death
Deny your faith
But jesus wept nevermore!
The lyrics of Eminenz's song Jesus Wept Nevermore are a representation of the glorification of Satan and the inevitability of death. The first two lines "In name of hell, In mark of Satan" express a deep allegiance to the devil and all things associated with him. The singer then declares his promise to rule the world with Satan. The next line "Oh Leviathan, Master of hell and lord of the abyss" refers to the mythical sea monster, often associated with Satan or demons, as the ultimate ruler of hell.
The following lines "In view of death, Deny your faith but Jesus wept nevermore! I call your name, I hear the solutions of your enigma I'm your servant for you my soul, For me by blessings, I'm your sacrifice but you leave me alone" portrays a person struggling with their faith and the inevitability of death. The singer is calling out to Satan, who he views as a solution to life's enigmas. He is willing to sacrifice himself for Satan, but feels abandoned by him.
In a broader sense, the song can be interpreted as a critique of organised religion's failure to provide solutions to life's problems. The singer has lost faith in Jesus, who he believed wept for humanity's pain, but the tears have stopped flowing. In conclusion, the song is a celebration of Satan's power, a reflection of disillusionment with organised religion, and a tragic portrayal of the human condition.
