Inferius Torment's dominant theme is contempt toward religion. More specifically, they stand opposed to blind dogmatism and the spiritual/mental enslavement left in its wake. They believe that by exterminating the human belief in "divine origins" and perverting religious dogmas, we can initiate a sequential transformation from brighter (or more positive) philosophies to more destructive ideas.
Through our own inner perception, we gain a better sense of our enemies. We reach forth and overcome their imposed facets, thus beginning a path that will shift the balance between rival ideologies and support our belief in mankind's darker origins. We seek to rid the world of positive energy, and set a course for self-development/self-destruction.
Accordingly, our lyrics speak of darkness, which validates us as we compose our hymns of power and opposition. We view Satanism as the anti-divine form of a dark reality. It stands in opposition to God, and enlightens its devotees. It empowers us in our struggle against the sheep-like ways of human scum.
We believe the Spirit dominates flesh, and this is our chosen form of existence. Through expression of a Satanic Will through the prism of Darkness' hypostases. Self-development is a ruling formula for our Satanic ideals. It is a thorn in the side of a dying God.
The practice of Sorcery is another step toward opening entering the pantheon. Through it, we gain awareness of everyday tyranny.
This is the path toward Devil worship.
Our interaction with The Dark strengthens the threads of our ideology. Through it, we descend and dwell among the lowest forms our dark origins.
Musical forms are a tool for invoking the Devil's essence, thus creating intelligent vibrations that move outward from within.
Agnus Dei
Inferius Torment Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh saint lamb, merge to your herd.
Crawling of sick... Idolatry of sick - ceremony of godslaying.
Gloria Sathanas, Contra Agnus Dei.
Hey, god... I created you, i destroy you,
Enslaved by me, Agnus Dei.
Your blood flows, for expiation of sins.
Agnus Dei, Qui Tollis Peccata Mundi, Miserere Nobis.
Agnus Dei, Qui Tollis Peccata Mundi, Dona Nobis Pacem.
The lyrics of Inferius Torment's song Agnus Dei convey a strong sense of religious rebellion and nonconformity. The first line, "Exaudi Nos Domine," translates to "Hear Us, Lord," and sets the tone for the rest of the song. The following lines, "Oh saint lamb, merge to your herd," are a reference to the Christian concept of Jesus as the sacrificial lamb who died for the sins of humanity. The use of the word "merge" instead of "lead" or "guide" implies that the band is rejecting the notion of being led by a higher power and instead taking control of their own destinies.
The next lines, "Crawling of sick... Idolatry of sick - ceremony of godslaying. Gloria Sathanas, Contra Agnus Dei," further emphasize this rebellion against traditional religious beliefs. The "crawling of sick" could be a metaphor for blindly following religious doctrine without question, while "idolatry of sick" suggests a critique of the worship of an idea or belief system rather than individual experiences and emotions. "Ceremony of godslaying" brings to mind images of a sacrificial ritual meant to undermine or destroy the idea of a higher power, while "Gloria Sathanas, Contra Agnus Dei" is a direct opposition of the Christian prayer "Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto" which translates as "Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." The contrast between these two phrases underscores the band's rejection of traditional Christian beliefs, instead elevating Satan in opposition to the sacrificial lamb of Jesus.
In summary, the lyrics of Inferius Torment's song Agnus Dei convey a strong message of religious rebellion and rejection of traditional Christian beliefs, particularly the idea of Jesus as the sacrificial lamb for the sins of humanity. Instead, the band elevates Satan in opposition to Jesus, suggesting a more individualistic approach to spirituality and a rejection of religious doctrine.
