In 2008 the band released its Magnum Opus entitled The Serpent’s Manifolds (2008) unleashing an unprecedented attack of post-modern symphonic black metal. The album is an occult musical journey in the wonders of the stars, the coils of human mind, the construction of self and the mysticism of chaotic structures.

Cell
Transcending Bizarre? Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause he is possessed in the dark
He was the one who
Created me cursed and obscene
Shall I triumph?
Shall I ever arise?
From the earth
Darkness yearning for light bright
Live free in my cell
Six, Six, Six
Creatures of wisdom invading my mind
Shall I triumph?
Shall I ever arise from my cell?
From my cell!
From my cell!
From my cell!
The song "Cell" by Transcending Bizarre? tells the story of a cursed and obscene creation who is trapped in a cell. The creature yearns for freedom and questions whether it will ever be able to triumph and arise from its imprisonment. The first verse acknowledges the creator, who is described as being possessed in the dark. The chorus repeats the question of whether the creature will ever be able to gain its freedom and live free in its cell. The repeated 666 is a reference to the number often associated with the devil.
The second verse introduces the idea of creatures of wisdom invading the mind of the cursed creation. This could be interpreted as a struggle between good and evil, as the creature hopes to triumph and arise from its cell. The repetition of "From my cell" at the end of each chorus emphasizes the creature's desperation for freedom and adds to the overall feeling of entrapment.
