Genus Ordinis Dei were established in 2011 from a circle of friends residing in the same town. Between 2011 and 2012, the band sculpted its musical identity, melding the new millennium metal with symphonic sonorities.
At the start of 2012, their first self-produced album came out, "The Middle", heavily backed by an intensive run of live shows throughout Italy and Europe.
In 2013, thanks to their greatly received first album, they engaged with Mr Fabrizio Scotti, who has been working in the Italian music industry for many years. Together they started a project that opened up an opportunity to work with Mr Marco “Maki” Coti Zelati (Lacuna Coil) as producer.
With this new heavy crew, Genus Ordinis Dei started the recording of the new EP in February 2014, at the JDM Studio of Mr Jonas Macullo.
By late 2014 their new discographic project was completed, and since signing a world wide deal with Metal Music Bookings & Management the band are ready to take the world by symphonic storm. Stay tuned for news coming soon!

Genus Ordinis Dei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Delivering me inside a deeper, creepy one
The pain turns in a physic state
Agony begins to strangle me
Tremors: my personal paralysis
Seclusion, is what I have to deceive
Whose only eye brings out my unheard prayers
God, save me!
I am 13401 nameless man
I am nothing more than 13401
The morning wind is now just a forgotten pleasure
The air is weird, it becomes solid in my mouth
God, save me! Oh my fucking God!
God, save me!
I am 13401 nameless man
I am nothing more than 13401
God, save me! Oh my fucking God!
God, save me!
I am 13401 nameless man
I am nothing more than 13401
The lyrics of Genus Ordinis Dei's song "ID 13401" conveys a sense of intense despair and hopelessness. The lyrics speak of a crushing agony that overwhelms the singer, leading to their confinement in a "cold and lifeless cube." They cry out for God to save them, trapped in an existence defined only by a number – 13401.
The opening lines describe a deafening noise that shatters the singer's nightmares, tossing them into an even darker and more unsettling reality. The pain they experience is both physical and psychological, causing tremors and personal paralysis. The place they find themselves in is one of seclusion and deception, where the only eye they have to look upon is the one that sees their unheard prayers.
The repeated refrains of "God, save me!" and "I am 13401 nameless man, I am nothing more than 13401" serve to reinforce the singer's sense of desperation and hopelessness. The lyrics suggest that the singer feels trapped, alone and powerless, searching desperately for a way out but ultimately finding none.

That deafening noise shatters my nightmares
A loud sound disrupts my dreams and brings me into a more terrifying reality
Delivering me inside a deeper, creepy one
The sound brings me into a more ominous and scary experience
The pain turns in a physic state
My emotional pain becomes a physical sensation
Agony begins to strangle me
The pain becomes suffocating and overwhelming
Tremors: my personal paralysis
My fear paralyzes me and causes me to shake uncontrollably
Seclusion, is what I have to deceive
I need to isolate myself from the world to cope with the pain and fear
I'm forced to live inside this cold and lifeless cube
I feel trapped in a monotonous and bleak existence
Whose only eye brings out my unheard prayers
The one window in my dull environment is the only place where I can express my unspoken desires
God, save me!
I am pleading for divine intervention to rescue me from my suffering
I am 13401 nameless man
I am just a number, insignificant and unrecognized in my pain
I am nothing more than 13401
I have lost my sense of identity and humanity in my misery
The morning wind is now just a forgotten pleasure
Even the small joys in life have become distant memories, lost in my torment
The air is weird, it becomes solid in my mouth
The atmosphere around me feels strange and uncomfortable, making it hard to breathe
God, save me! Oh my fucking God!
I am desperately appealing to a higher power to alleviate my endless agony
God, save me!
My desperation for salvation only continues to grow
I am 13401 nameless man
Once again, I am emphasizing my loss of individuality and identity in my pain
I am nothing more than 13401
I am devoid of hope and any sense of self-worth in my unending suffering
