Belphegor - Angeli Mortis De Profundis

Belphegor - Blood Magick Necromance (2011)

Soon, Belphegor gonna release their next bloody opus. Track nr. 5 has a latin title, which means Angels of death out of the depths. If there will be any latin phrases in the lyrics, I gonna explain them later...

... back again: Now I hold the new CD in my hands and reading the lyrics, I found two latin phrases:

The phrase natus in morte (in: Blood Magick Necromance) means born in death, the phrase ignis extotum corpas (in: Possessed Burning Eyes) means... actually nothing. "ignis" is "fire" and the two other words don't exist. Maybe Belphegor wanted to say Fire out of the whole body, which would be ignis ex toto corpore in latin.

  1. I'm not trying to be offensive, and I might be wrong (most likely am), but doesn't 'extotum' have an obvious meaning; 'before anything'? Even if it isn't exactly 100% correct, seems like the most likely thing in my opinion. Also, 'corpas' might be a word that's obscure/weird on purpose, or if things go weird, it could be two words mixed together; 'corpus' and 'apas' for example, to make something to mean 'binding bodies' or something like that. Obviously, it doesn't make real sense, but I mean, there are some bands who do that, to make their stuff seem even more cryptic. Can't remember any right now though, so maybe it's something I falsely remember, but I think some band said it in an interview, though.

    Then it would make (a little bit more) sense. But well, would be going too far to say they meant that, I suppose.
