The incessant battle clash of a Frenetic Crimson Barbarian, a Holistic Schizoid Paladin and an Occult Magician brought about the majesty of one of the Great Dukes of Hell in the form of the most sordid Progressive Symphonic Power Metal of the new era.

INNOMINE - Alloces

Alone in the desert
Wet hair and dirty feet
Salts on my lips
Breathe, just breathe
Smoke in the air
Fire in the sky
This is just out of my control
Breathe, just breathe
Do you remember how it started?
Do you remember how it started?
I’m a warrior
Glowing on all sides
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m a warrior
Connected to the stars
Breathe, just breathe
Words turn into light
I’m alive
I’m alive
Breathe, just breathe
It’s time to let go

Breathe, Just Breathe

The promise of Eternal Life has been the crucial subject in which numerous religions and spiritual beliefs have based their foundations on. For the idea of non-existence is as troubling and inconceivable for humans as infinite itself, on the other hand the thought of interminably experiencing more from a reality we are so accustomed to, brings comfort to more than one soul. Innocence is bliss, and being forever shields us from turning our eyes to the dreadful horror of the unknown, the black pit of nothingness, the void. 
But it’s within its contemplation that lies the secret knowledge.

Vitam Aeternam is an experimental musical project formed by entities known as Jake Rosenberg (Desperate Machines, In Progress), Râhoola (A Flying Fish, ex-Inferzenal), and André Aaslie (Funeral, Profane Burial, Images At Twilight, Abyssic, Gromth, Woodwindz, and Omnia Moritur). It’s through chance and shared musical values, that such entities were able to create an original album full of complex, emotional, dramatic, haunting, melodic, intense, and cinematic music. An honest work from the subconscious depths, and a prodigious offspring of our interconnected digital zeitgeist.

Their debut album, "The Self-Aware Frequency" explores the mind of a cognizant being trapped within the cosmically interwoven pattern that embeds reality. The character’s universe is the music itself, through which it navigates, as a sum of temporal frequencies who slowly gain consciousness, evolving across the songs, until the ultimate realization of its own undeniable truth.

“TSAF” combines elements of electronic, industrial, classical, film score, heavy metal, progressive rock, and even pop, to create something unique, challenging, and engaging. Fans of forward thinking artists such as Devil Doll, Mike Patton, Leprous, Ulver, Manes, Pain of Salvation, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Devin Townsend, Vulture Industries, and Arcturus, should rejoice in the musical world illuminated throughout the album.

The album features international guest appearances by Bor Zuljan (Devil Doll), Øyvind “Mustis” Mustaparta (ex-Dimmu Borgir), Juan Manuel Flores (Cuarteto Cromano), Goran Setitus (Omnia Moritur, ex-Setherial), Alasdair (Ashenspire), Przemyslaw Kajnat (Eternal Deformity, Allone), and Lotti Wood (Woodwindz).

Esta canción fue grabada por el grupo de rock Caifanes en 1990, con mi participación en la guitarra eléctrica y los arreglos en la misma.
En 2011 la reversioné e invité al actor y comediante Manuel el «Loco» Valdés a que la declamara en su peculiar estilo.
Posteriormente la incluí en mi segundo disco solista, «Alebrije», como «bonus track».

"HUMAN"
 
Black. Where am I?
Is it time to come back?
Again, life…
 
"Where should we be if nobody tried to find out what lies beyond?"
 
Who’s my creator? And why has he made my conscious being?
Far away from gods and angels I’m just a tool, a thing
Fragmented device, an artifact of greed  
- The glass harmonica has shattered - 
As Man became the Beast
 
Born from blood, anguish and grief
The flesh machinery won’t find relief
As promised, the monster shall arise!
“The green will be stained forever”
Son of the Demiurge: The Lion-Serpent!
 
"Now I know what it feels like to be god!" 
Her name is Death and time, her game
But I refuse to give the life of my old friend
So I demand: You make her whole! For she is pure!
The white companion of mine… 
 
"Oh, it's alive! It’s alive! It’s alive! It’s alive!  It’s alive!" 
 
Black. Where am I?
Is it finally over now?
I’m tired of this endless wheel
The nightmare of existence
 
Why? Tell me why…
Should I live, should I die?
You tell me!!
 
The things I have seen, 
You wouldn’t believe me
Hidden civilizations
Endless generations,
Moments… lost in time
What am I?!
 
Am I…. human? My tears dissolved in the rain...
