Condemner Posts Rehearsal Track of “Male Patratis Sunt Atra Theatra Parata”

Texas post-death metal band Condemner — which seems to combine Celtic Frost, Incantation, and Blasphemy in its sound — posted its latest rehearsal track yesterday, showcasing its desire to stack primitive chromatic riffs against rumbling discursion in order to make wandering, melancholic tracks with an undertone of violent Nietzschean-Galtonian “might is right” conflict.


The band also posted lyrics:

Logos decided
Your body to be broken
Within this dark chamber
On gruesome implements
Joints dislocated
Flesh ripped from the whole
Degradation, agony
Shame, pain, blood, and bones

Your faults lead you here
And this place reflects you
A wretched facade
Stained by blood and by guilt
This hell where you’ll suffer
Is your own creation
So feast on yourself
Drink from the cup that you filled

For our law is beyond
Reason’s understanding
And all sentences just
So these torments prescribed
Are the will of a god
Exacting correction
Twisting weak bodies
Into morbid sigils

So, sacrifice
Prepared as you are
Naked and crying
Humiliated
To be stretched by ropes
And sliced by sharp blades
Know there’ll be no pity
Your screams please our god

Hung from hands tied behind your back
Shoulders twist out of socket
Grueling weights hung from ankles
Three foot drop rips joints apart

Arms and legs
Ripped apart
Spine stretched out
Paralysis
Spikes pierce flesh
Skewering nerves
Clot the blood
Prolong death
Stomach distends
Presses on lungs
Suffocation
Rupturing
Abdomen Slit
Disemboweled
See your life
Leave yourself

Male patratis sunt atra theatra parata
The lines are inscribed on the wall
Your own foul deeds have
Created this dark place
And in this dark place
Dark deeds shall break you

So, sacrifice
Prepared as you are
Naked and crying
Humiliated
To be stretched by ropes
And sliced by sharp blades
Know there’ll be no pity
Your screams please our god

Torrents of piss poured down your throat
Stomach bloats and suffocates
Pressing on your diaphragm
Beaten with hammers, now ruptures

There’s no hope for you
In this miserable place
Where the screams of victims
Echo off of stone walls
Sadistic temple
Numinous abattoir
Dim cell of torment
Disciple’s workshop

Diabolic lord ordains my sadism
