BAND NAME: Erlösung (Erlosung)
GENRE: Experimental / Epic Unblack Metal
STATUS: Split up
LOCATION: USA (Statesboro, Georgia)
Formed in fall of 2008.
For those who are confused about this project:
Erlösung's Christmas-themed music is a tongue-in-cheek, yet genuine, criticism of materialism/commercialism. Songs talking about "killing Santa Claus", for example, are about killing what Santa Claus represents, the materialistic focus of Christmas, people's focus on money and gifts. Notice that songs that praise Christ Himself are left unedited.
Sebastian is the only person who recorded anything for Erlösung. The other people listed below were short time members but never appeared on any recordings. (Marcellianus also played live.) There were plans for another Erlösung album, but the files were lost in an HDD failure. In band photos where there are two people, the other person is Marcellianus. Info in this paragraph is confirmed by Sebastian.
Most of the project's music has significant symphonic/epic influences, but some of it is very experimental including electronic, folk, and ambient elements.

2) Carol of the Bells
2:16, lyrics:
Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
Ding dong ding dong, that is their song
With joyful ring, all caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
On on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
Ding dong ding dong, that is their song
With joyful ring, all caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
On on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home
On on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home
Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas
On on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home
Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away

5) Down in Yon Forest
2:17, lyrics:
Down in yon forest there stands a hall:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
It's covered all over with purple and pall
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
In that hall there stands a bed:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
It's covered all over with scarlet so red:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
At the bed-side there lies a stone:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Which the sweet Virgin Mary knelt upon:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
Under that bed there runs a flood:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
The one half runs water, the other runs blood:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
At the bed's foot there grows a thorn:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Which ever blows blossom since He was born:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
Over that bed the moon shines bright:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Denoting our Saviour was born this night:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
It's covered all over with purple and pall
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
In that hall there stands a bed:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
It's covered all over with scarlet so red:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
At the bed-side there lies a stone:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Which the sweet Virgin Mary knelt upon:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
Under that bed there runs a flood:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
The one half runs water, the other runs blood:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
At the bed's foot there grows a thorn:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Which ever blows blossom since He was born:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
Over that bed the moon shines bright:
The bells of Paradise I heard them ring:
Denoting our Saviour was born this night:
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
6) Still, Still, Weil's Kindlein Schlafen Will
3:11, lyrics:
Still, still, still,
weil's Kindlein schlafen will!
Die Engel tun schön jubilieren,
Bei dem Kripplein musizieren.
Stille, stille, stille,
Weil's Kindlein schlafen will.
Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,
Mein liebes Kindlein, schlaf!
Maria tut dich [es] niedersingen
Und ihr treues Herz darbringen.
Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,
Mein liebes Kindlein, schlaf!
Groß, groß, groß,
Die Lieb' ist übergroß.
Gott hat den Himmelsthron verlassen
Und muß reisen auf der Straßen.
Groß, groß, groß,
Die Lieb' ist übergroß.
Wir, wir, wir,
Wir rufen all zu dir:
"Tu uns des Himmels Reich aufschließen,
Wenn wir einmal sterben müssen.
Wir, wir, wir,
Wir rufen all zu dir."7) I Saw Three Ships

10) Oh Holy Night
2:28, lyrics:
O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night, oh night divine
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night, oh night divine

1) Jolly Old St. Nick
1:24, lyrics:
Jolly old St. Nicholas, lean your ear this way!
Don't you tell a single soul, what I'm going to say;
Christmas Eve is coming soon; now, you dear old man,
You can't imagine what I bring on: so guess if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve, when I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black, with your pack you'll creep;
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row;
I will be standing there, and kill you in the snow.
Don't you tell a single soul, what I'm going to say;
Christmas Eve is coming soon; now, you dear old man,
You can't imagine what I bring on: so guess if you can.
When the clock is striking twelve, when I'm fast asleep,
Down the chimney broad and black, with your pack you'll creep;
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row;
I will be standing there, and kill you in the snow.
2) Here We Come a Killing
2:08, lyrics:
Here we come a-killing
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wandering,
So bloody to be seen.
hate will come to you,
And in your future death too
And for you there will be no New Year,
For you there will be no New Year.
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wandering,
So bloody to be seen.
hate will come to you,
And in your future death too
And for you there will be no New Year,
For you there will be no New Year.
We are not daily beggars
Who beg from door to door,
But we are appointed warriors
Never seen before.
Hate will come to you,
And likewise death too,
And for you there will be no New Year,
For you there will be no New Year.
We will kill the master of all lies
Likewise his mistress too
And all his lust filled children,
who plagues this world like you
hate will come to you,
And in your future death too
And for you there will be no New Year,
For you there will be no New Year.
And all your kin and minions
That dwell both far and near
We wish a death filled Christmas
And a horrible New Year.
Hate will come to you,
And in your future death too
And for you there will be no New Year,
For you there will be no New Year.
3) We Three Kings
2:00, lyrics:
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heaven replies
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
4) Christmas Shoes
4:31, lyrics:
It was almost Christmas time,
There I stood in another line,
Trying to buy that last Gift or two,
Not really in the Christmas mood.
Standing right in front of me,
A little boy waiting anxiously,
Pacing round like little boys do,
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes.
He came up dirty from head to toe
Searching his pockets he came up to pay,
And I couldn't believe what I heard him say.
Sir, I want to buy these shoes,
For my momma please,
It's Christmas eve and these shoes are just her size.
Could you hurry please,
Daddy says there's not much time,
You see she's been sick for quite awhile
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful tonight
They counted pennies for what seemed like years,
The cashier said son there's not enough here,
He searched his pockets frantically,
Then he turned and looked at me.
He said, momma made Christmas good at our house,
Most years she just did without,
Tell me sir, what am I going to do
Somehow I've got to buy her these shoes.
Then suddenly I realized
While looking into his troubled eyes
That something wasn't right
Sir, I want to buy these shoes,
For my momma please,
It's Christmas eve and these shoes are just her size.
Could you hurry please,
Daddy says there's not much time,
You see she's been sick for quite awhile
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful tonight
...And then I realized, he was just a con-artist...
A boy, young and stout, a master of this game
His soul corrupted and tarnished by greed.
Blood stains his once pure soul
The media has tricked us into selling our souls
Becoming like them and adhering to their will
Blood stains our once pure souls
Christmas ist Krieg!
Christmas ist Krieg!
Christmas ist Krieg!
Christmas ist Krieg!

5) Slay Ride
1:41, lyrics:
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Slaying all the way (ha ha ha)
Bells on church tops ring
Making spirits fight
What fun it is to laugh and scream
This slaying song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to kill
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to slay
In a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was killing by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then Miss Fanny was shot
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to kill
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to slay
In a one horse open sleigh
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Slaying all the way (ha ha ha)
Bells on church tops ring
Making spirits fight
What fun it is to laugh and scream
This slaying song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to kill
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to slay
In a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was killing by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then Miss Fanny was shot
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to kill
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
slaying all the way
Oh, what fun it is to slay
In a one horse open sleigh
6) Up on a Housetop
2:25, lyrics:
Up on the rooftop, reindeer pause
Out jumps fat old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
Only to be met with lots of noise
Up on the rooftop, reindeer pause
Out jumps fat old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
Only to be met with lots of noise
Yo, ho, ho! Who would know?
Yo, ho, ho! Who would know?
Up on the housetop
Click, click, click
Knife through his heart went
Old Saint Nick
Carve out your skull into a shell
Oh, dear Santa, I will fill it well
Oh what a folly, stop those cries
Before I tear out your damned eyes
Yo, ho, ho! Who would know?
Yo, ho, ho! Who would know?
Up on the housetop
Click, click, click
Knife through his heart went
Old Saint Nick
7) Silent Night
1:45, lyrics:
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
8) Oh Christmas Tree
1:18, lyrics:
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
how bloody are thy branches
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
how bloody are thy branches
Not only red when summer's here,
But also when 'tis cold and drear.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
how bloody are thy branches
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
Thou bidst us true and faithful be,
And trust in God unchangingly.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
how bloody are thy branches
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
how bloody are thy branches
Not only red when summer's here,
But also when 'tis cold and drear.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
how bloody are thy branches
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
Thou bidst us true and faithful be,
And trust in God unchangingly.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!

Also released a music video for a song called "Wall of Glass" (5:33), in 2009.
Watch the video [here]. (Cheers to Isaias C, the person who reuploaded it!!) Lyrics:
Our hand grow cold, our eyes gaze on,
for we are separated, by a wall of glass,
for we are separated, by a wall of glass,
Our frail hearts, they carry on.
For we are separated, by a wall of glass.
Never have we met, never have we left.
Our hands reach out, but cannot touch,
For we are separated, by a wall of glass.
Never have we met, never have we left.
Our hands reach out, but cannot touch,
Never have we met, never have we left,
for this wall of glass, impairs our grasp.
for this wall of glass, impairs our grasp.
Our hand grow cold, our eyes gaze on,
for we are separated, by a wall of glass,
for we are separated, by a wall of glass,
Our frail hearts, they carry on.
For we are separated, by a wall of glass.
For we are separated, by a wall of glass.
My heart is overwhelmed by love.
It longs for the embrace of the one
who has saved me from the eyes of death.
It is overwhelmed, by love,
it longs for the embrace, of the one,
who has spared me, from the eyes of death!
But suddenly!
By the light of the morning sun,
this crystal wall,
Shimmers by its golden rays.
Suddenly! Our hearts are joined.
For never can this wall,
Restrain our love!

Navidad Rockera compilation is from 2011 and in digital format.
Btw, do you remember the side project of Erlösung named The War of The Angels?
I have his songs and some information if you are interested in it.
Added, thanks! And I've never heard of "The War of the Angels", but sure! Send everything to this email address:

Thanks again! :)
is the band name called Erlösung or Erlosung ?
Erlösung, but sometimes the letter "ö" isn't supported (some website URLs; older YouTube accounts; etc), so sometimes it's necessary to write Erlosung.
But yes, their name has the umlaut. :)
Bom dia essa banda é cristã ou católica
O catolicismo é um ramo do cristianismo, não? Enfim sim, essa banda é católica
