After all the twists and turns, ups and downs that we have lived through as years rolled by I never thought that there would be a day when Wrath and I put our musical partnership to a shelf. The decision was a moment of both great sadness and great relief. However, this was something that had to be done at this stage to ensure the continued productive musical careers of both parties. I can assure you all that both Wrath with True Black Dawn and I with the remaining members of Enochian Crescent, now known as The Crescent, shall outpour new music with newfound vigour and intensity.

When we founded Enochian Crescent in 1995, Wrath and I made a pact that should either quit the band we would put the name to rest also. As a man of my words I shall honour this agreement. The remaining members (Bolton - drums, Tunturituuli - bass, Vilhelm - guitar, and Viktor - guitar, vocals) shall continue the musical legacy of Enochian Crescent and you will be hearing songs from the old albums in the live-set. We recruited Hellwind Tuonenjoki as our new lead vocalist, who is already singing on the upcoming The Crescent album "Risti" (transl. Cross) which shall be released by Spinefarm Records in early 2013.

The remaining band members wish Wrath all the best in the future and I personally want to thank my long standing Omega Comrade and friend for all these years. He is a man with unique vocal talent and personality to match in this world of mediocrity.

Even though these news might shock and upset some, worry not; it was all for the best. And you may enjoy both the voice of Wrath and the music of Enochian Crescent in near future.

Crescentian
Enochian Crescent Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Through The Sumer fields I ride
My Beacon of Silver Light
A fertile Crescent
The Bearer of Plague

Under iron rule (of)
Patriarchs of christ
I refuse their poison

Crucifix Will Fall

For Centuries they?ll Crawl

Parched with the search for wisdom
Drowned in their holy lies
The Dusk of theology
Never dawns to man

Bread of the cult of the dead
Wine of the cult of the dead
In the court prepared

Crescentian...

Tear down the sun from heavens
Set Ablaze Our Mercury Hearts
A Satanic Millenium
The Era of...

Rend their robes Asunder
Bombard the temples
Leave Not stone upon stone
Like A Scythe We Will Reap!!!

And rejoice Crescentian Night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Enochian Crescent's song "Crescentian" deal primarily with the themes of rebellion against religious oppression and the embrace of satanic ideals. The singer of the song rides through the fields under a silver light, representing the moon and the pagan concept of the divine feminine, which stands in contrast to the iron rule of the patriarchs of Christ. The fertile crescent referred to in the song is likely a reference to the Mesopotamian region, which was considered the cradle of civilization and where many of the concepts of Western religion were first developed. This region is also significant because it was once home to civilizations that embraced polytheistic worship and the concept of the divine feminine.

The singer of the song rejects the poison of Christianity and proclaims that the crucifix will fall. The idea of the crucifix falling represents the rejection of Christ and the religion that he represents. The line "for centuries they'll crawl" suggests that the singer believes that Christianity will inevitably decline, and that its adherents will be forced to abandon their beliefs as they become increasingly out of touch with the world. The bread and wine of the cult of the dead represents the Eucharist, which is central to Catholic worship. The singer rejects this sacrament and instead embraces satanic ideals.

Enochian Crescent's "Crescentian" is a powerful statement against religious oppression and a call to embrace satanic ideals. The song is notable for its use of pagan and satanic imagery, as well as its rejection of the dominant religion of the Western world. The song is also significant because it challenges the idea of monotheism and the rejection of feminine divinity.
