1. Black Metal band from Paraguay
2. Supreme Occult Dark Ritual band from Italy
3. Breakcore/Gabber/Noise producer Sabaoth (free album download), youtube account

1. Sabaoth were formed in Asuncion, Paraguay, in the end of 1992, with Norrack (drums) and Zethyaz (guitar). A little later, Zethineph joined in to handle vocals and keyboards. They released two demos "Dentro del Culto" (1993) and "Southern Twilight" (1994), with helped to establish their personality, based around an imaginative black metal. The second tape enjoyed a vast distribution worlwide and received excellent reviews.

Such auspicious recording led contract with the Argentina based label Stormsouls, and in November 1995 they recorded the self titled debut CD. Slightly influences from gothic wave and atmospheric passages around the intense black metal core, were the reasons why countless magazines around the world praised "Sabaoth" as one of the masterpieces of the south American gothic/black metal scene.

In May ..96 Sabaoth played in a festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as second band just before the legend Sarcofago. Again, the band received excellent reviews, by both press and audience.

While they started to prepare new song, through the new label Icarus it was released "Shield of Leaves", the debut CD of Eyesight, solo project of Zethyaz, which is constructed around acoustic song, with Zethyaz playing all instruments and singing.

After some line-up changes (Zethineph left temporally the band), the rest decided to continue as a duo, and in 1999 Sabaoth started the recording sessions of the second album.

Free from any styles restriction, "Windjourney" is a melt of gothic and pop-oriented melodies, yet with that black metal vibe. This shows the maturity of both musicians Zethyas (in change of the vocals in this opportunity), and The N (Norrack) playing also Keyboards. Together they have created "Windjourney" as a stimulating journey within the imagination.

Nowadays, after playing with SEPULTURA (DANTE XXI TOUR) and BLOOD PARADE (Argentina), SABAOTH is back, signed one more time for ICARUS MUSIC, and releasing their third album , "LES ILLUMINATIONS", a conceptual and vast work based on the symbolist poetry of the 19th century; taken words from authors such as Baudelaire and Lautréamont. LES ILLUMINATONS is available on www.icarusmusic.com.ar

Sabaoth Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have kissed the summer dawn
Before the palaces
Nothing moved
The water lay dead.

Battalions of shadows
Still kept the forest road
I walked, walking warm

And vital breath
While stones watched
And wings rose soundlessly.

A clear pale light
A flower who told me its name

I came upon the goddess
Then one by one
I lifted her veils
Across the meadow
Where I betrayed her to the cock.

I hunted her
¡And I hunted her!

And smelled the scent
Of her immense body.

Dawn and the child fell together
At the bottom of the wood
When I awoke, it was noon.

¿Life was it really this?
¡Life!

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Sabaoth's "Dawn" use vivid imagery to describe a tranquil summer morning. The singer has witnessed the birth of a new day, standing before the majestic palaces as the world around them remains still and peaceful. Even the water appears lifeless. The singer goes on to describe their movements through the forest, where the only signs of life are the shadows cast by the trees. The stones remain silent witnesses as the singer moves forward, with the sound of wings rising up around them.

As the singer moves through the meadow, they come across a veiled goddess. The singer lifts the goddess's veils, betraying her to the cock. The imagery suggest that the pursuit of the goddess is a kind of primal or instinctual desire, with the singer hunting her down and experiencing the scent of her "immense body." However, this pursuit is only fleeting, as the final lines reveal that the passage of time has left the singer feeling disoriented and unsure of the meaning or purpose of life itself.

Overall, "Dawn" captures the beauty and mystery of nature, while also exploring the darker aspects of human desire and mortality. The lyrics suggest a fascination with the natural world and with the primal instincts that drive us as human beings.

Line by Line Meaning

I have kissed the summer dawn
I have experienced the early morning light of summer

Before the palaces
I was in the presence of grand structures

Nothing moved
There was stillness and quietness all around

The water lay dead.
The body of water was motionless

Battalions of shadows
Numerous dark shapes casted by the sun obstructed the path

Still kept the forest road
The shadows continued to block the path through the woods

I walked, walking warm
I strolled feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin

And vital breath
I breathed in the fresh, energizing air

While stones watched
The stones nearby were observers to my journey

And wings rose soundlessly.
Birds quietly emerged and took flight

A clear pale light
The light was bright but had a muted quality
