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.

Dimension Hell
Transcending Bizarre? Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I passed the gate and gained a shadow
Forever to haunt me
Never alone but a binary self
Together holds me
Dimension hell!
Dimension hell!
In the ends of darkened universes
Dimension hell!
Dressed with the passing of centuries countless
A world against his myth
The light
Of million stars
Forming alien constellations
Lurked
Through the dead suns searching
Mass
To exploit it's energy
A world against his myth
Through the dead suns searching
Mass
Dimension hell!
The song "Dimension Hell" by Transcending Bizarre? is a dark and ominous portrayal of a person who has entered a terrifying, otherworldly realm known as "Dimension Hell." The song is sung in a haunting, almost chant-like style, with sparse instrumentation that contributes to the overall eerie feeling of the piece. The lyrics describe the singer passing through a gate and gaining a shadow, which will forever haunt them, and being trapped with a binary self. The repetition of the phrase "Dimension Hell!" gives the song a sense of foreboding, as if the singer is trapped in some kind of cosmic nightmare.
The second verse of the song adds to the horror by describing the singer as being "Dressed with the passing of centuries countless," as if they have been trapped in Dimension Hell for an eternity. The verse also mentions "The light of million stars forming alien constellations," which gives a sense of the vastness and otherness of this realm. The final lines of the song describe the singer searching through dead suns for mass to exploit its energy, adding to the feeling of being trapped and desperate.
Overall, "Dimension Hell" is a chilling song that creates a bleak and terrifying atmosphere through its sparse instrumentation, repetitive lyrics, and dark imagery.
