ANIMAE CAPRONII

Thanks to Cesare for all the help with this page!
A lot of info has been cleared up, and some notes have been added.



BAND NAME: Animae Capronii
GENRE: Raw / Lo-fi / Experimental Unblack Metal, Various
STATUS: Split up
LOCATION: Italy (Cosio Valtellino, Sondrio, Lombardy)

Years active:
2003-2004, Armagherion
2004-2015, Animae Capronii
2015 - October 2021, Trust Your Heart
19 June 2022 - 23 June, 2022, Animae Capronii

Armagherion wasn't a Christian project. The first Christian album was under the Animae Capronii name, "And Hourglass of Lifetime", in 2008. Animae Capronii's music varies a fair bit, between music in a more "standard" black metal style, and more experimental, keyboard-heavy music. These other styles can include folk, goth, symphonic, etc.

Cesare's old pseudonym "Kalrog Naar" is made up of:
- Kalrog, a character Cesare invented in "Dungeons & Dragons".
- Naar, a name taken from Joe Dever's "Lone Wolf", a series of gamebooks.
Cesare would later abandon this pseudonym, and just go by his real name instead.

The titles of several of Animae Capronii's albums are adapted from a poem written by a friend of Cesare, Jenni K. from Finland. The original poem is:
A moment of harmony in my mind, I had a boring lesson:
“White death sleeps above these lands
Creepy black walk on the land
Red shoot one, no two, three, four, thousands!
Bloody snow colour space, still time stands
Under a dying willow sit skeleton with schyte
And hourglass of lifetime…
Shadows, shining petals in the air at serenity lake,
Black swans cry blood red tears under the white moon
Lonely steps of a blind guardian angel echo here
In eternal heaven of silent whispers”.

According to Cesare,
"The very first album with Christian lyrics was 'And Hourglass of Lifetime' relased in 2008. It also contain some dark fantasy lyrics too, but that album is my real turning point."

Track 2 is a tribute/homage to secular band Perun.

1) Angele Dei
3:26, lyrics:
Angele Dei qui custos est mei
me tibi commissum pietate superna
illumina custodi rege et guberna
Amen

Anima Christi sanctifica me
Corpus Christi salva me
Sanguis Christi inebria me
Aqua lateris Christi lava me
Passio Christi conforta me
O bone Iesu exaudi me
Intra tua vulnera absconde me.

Ne permittas a te me separari
ad hoste maligno defende me
in hora mortis mea voca me
et iube me venire ad te
ut cum sanctis tuis laudem te
in secula seculorum

Amen

2) In My Dark Magic Kingdom
3:36, lyrics:
I see...
my lands through the mantle of the night
I see...
through my nazgul-eyes
I feel...
the presence of the mistress of unlight
dominate me...
my queen of beautiness and pride
vagrant spectre
through my black magic kingdom
follow forever
the forgotten past...
shadows disappear
the once a time human kings
cursed by the mistress of the eternal rings

3) You Torn My Heart into Pieces
5:17, lyrics:
I've put all my hopes in you
I've gave all my love for you
I've opened my heart to you
I'm yours,just yours for life

but you refused my love
evil cruel temptress
you torn my poor heart into pieces
you want just my blood
you...lustful meretrix...
you'll laugh too over my grave.

I've offered you all my time,
all my emotions and a promise for life.
I've passed all my time
thinking about you,
thinking at your smile...

4) Twilight Fall
3:29, lyrics:
The lights of day are fading,
Slowly disappearing to give their throne to the abyss of the night.
Frozen days of eternal desolation, my joy will rise no more from the lonely skies.
Twilight falls on the path of winter,
The iced leaf are falling from the trees, my wounds hurts me deep inside.
The wolves are hidden in the woods, the mist surrounds every angle.
I cannot see the road so clear, a little pool of blood is on the ground
While twilight fall...
While twilight fall...

5) My Last Tears
5:39, lyrics:
The reddish dark-blood light penetrate the transparent curtains of the window,
Sit down and hear the silence... my last tears.
I will die no more.
The anger is rising from the deep of the soul, I will cry no more.
My last tears from an eternal sea, I will suffer no more,
Abandoned again.

6) Autumnal Air
3:54, lyrics:
The mountains are full of colours.
I admire them in silence. Meditation about death.
Killing temptations... rotting blood.
Into the forest,the vagrant spectres.
Shamain... the dead are here.
Autumn is the season of mist and death.
Autumn of depression.
Sadness is the only sensation that I could feel now.
Everything is burning,red hate in my closed eyes...
Tombstones for the winter.

7) Splendour of the Cross
4:31, lyrics:
In the name of our Father, we praise Thee oh God.
In the name of the Son, we praise Thee for Your benevolence;
and with the Holy Ghost, we'll live from now without fear.

The splendour of the cross will defeat the evil in men,
The light that shines from it will keep peace in our hearts.
The power of holiness will purify this world.

This is our symbol, sign of the cross,
This is our hope for a better world.

8) Anima Christi
2:32, lyrics:
Anima Christi sanctifica me
Corpus Christi salva me
Sanguis Christi inebria me
Aqua lateris Christi lava me
Passio Christi conforta me
O bone Iesu exaudi me
Intra tua vulnera absconde me.

Ne permittas a Te me separari
ad hoste maligno defende me
in hora mortis mea voca me
et iube me venire ad Te
ut cum sanctis tuis laudem Te
in secula seculorum

Amen

9) Dethroning Lucifer
3:21, lyrics:
Mindless people worship him, carrier of the false light,
Master of emptiness and deceit,

your freedom is just an illusion, a death trap for the weak of spirit.

You're falling, Lucifer... the light of God is shining on you.
Burning your flesh, blinding your disciples.

The lord Jesus Christ will forgive you with his noble compassion
and wisdom.

You will cry sad forever, in the prisons of the underworld.

10) The Flame of Hope
3:17, lyrics:
In moments of darkness, when everything seems lost,
When the evil threat us from every side,
Where you cannot see outside the veil of the night,
Join your hands and fall on your knees, praying our Lord.
He's watching you, He's close to your heart.
Pray His name, He's listening to you.
He's always ready to help you, and to give you support
In the darkest hour.
When Satan will come, when armageddon will be near,
Jesus Christ will be with you, and the flame of hope
Will protect you forever.

11) Giovanna d'Arco, la puttanella d'Orleans (Stake of God cover)
4:04

12) Sancte Spiritus
1:25, lyrics:
Veni Sancte Spiritus reple tuorum corda fidelis
et tuiamoris in eis igne accende.
emitte spiritum tuum et creabuntur
et renovabis faciem terrae

Oremus:

Deus, qui corda fidelium
Sancti Spiritus illustratione loquisti:
da nobis in eodem spiritu recta sapere
et de eius semper consolatione gaudere
per Christum Dominum Nostrum

Amen

Hear me! I'm the last one left
of a long gone kind,
I stand alone
But as sun sets, and darkness falls with hundreds voices, the air comes alive

And every night they're coming out for me
With hate filled rage they try to force
their way inside
Knocking and banging they pound the door
And they thrash the windows' boards... the roof... the walls...

Listen! I'm the one your kids will be taught to fear, I'm a scary tale
'cause when sun shines the Earth is mine,
that's when by my hand you will die

And every night I fight a war that's lost
Aware that even if I'm killed I'll live in your minds
Forever and ever I'll haunt your dreams,
My memory'll be enough to chill your spine

One more night shatters my nerves, and shreds my sanity away
Starving they scream their hunger as they try to draw me out
One more sunrise breaks the spell, releases me from this hell
To cast me into a new nightmare where nothing I knew has remained

I'm what you'll never be again, one of a kind
I am your fear
... your hate
... your doom
I am legend

Hear me! I'm the last one left of a long gone kind, I stand alone
But as sun sets and darkness falls with hundreds voices the air comes alive

And every night they're coming out for me
With hate filled rage they try to force their way inside
Knocking and banging they pound the door
And they thrash the windows' boards: the roof

One more night shatters my nerves, and shreds my sanity away
Starving they scream their hunger as they try to draw me out
One more sunrise breaks the spell, releases me from this hell
To cast me into a new nightmare
where nothing I knew has remained

10) Man of Iron (Bathory cover)
3:34, lyrics:
I have paced these forests for so long I don't know if I am man or I am beast.
I, though, hold deep within me a quest for revenge.
Then I must be a man as much as I can be.

I have learned to speak the tongue of the animal
I have learned to read the signs in bark and snow.
I have taken within myself the spirits of my fathers,
long time gone.
In this short time, far from home, a man of Iron I've grown.
A man of Iron I have grown.

A part of the eternal woods
Late evening

"Just after sunset on his way back to his camp after watching the sun unite with the mountains in the west, he sees the flickering of light between the tree trunks. Approaching, he sees an old man sitting calmly by a fire, as if waiting for him. His left eye missing. His beard as if gold. The signs on his cloak and hood familiar. The one eyed old man matches the description of the soothsayer, as told by the elders of his village by the fires at night when he only a child. The boy, now a young man, eager to know, asks the one eyed old man about his dreams. Dreams he cannot understand. Dreams about strange things he is seeing himself doing. Then the winds that seem to talk to him. Voices that whisper to him behind his back. The one eyed old man tells him of the cycles of the stars, of the trail of fate and of the valley where time and space had ceased to exist... where his world ends and the shadows begin. The one eyed old man tells the young man that fate has chosen him to interfere with the other world. The disturbance is already made. The daughters of the four winds have sold themselves to the shadows, distorting the balance of the universe. And the one eyed old man says he has seen him come for a thousand years, and that the aging gods have told him to teach him all that he has ever known and to prepare him to ride beyond his world and into the shadows as their champion to restore the balance. To his aid he shall be given a sword forged when this world was young. He shall be guarded and guided by two ravens, and he shall ride the eight-legged stallion of his fathers' god. He will encounter the Woodwoman, and he will make a visit to the Lake. One hundred days and one hundred nights his training shall be hard. And this very night it will already have begun.

11) Born to Make You Happy (Britney Spears cover)
4:40, lyrics:
Oh, my love
Oh, yeah yeah
Oh, yeah

I'm sitting here alone up in my room
I'm thinking about the times that we've been through
Oh, my love
I'm looking at a picture in my hand
Trying my best to understand
I really want to know what we did wrong
With a love that felt so strong
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one up in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

I know I've been a fool since you've been gone
I'd better give it up and carry on
Oh, my love
'Cause living in a dream of you and me
Is not the way my life should be
I don't want to cry a tear for you
So forgive me if I do (ooh)
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one up in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
I'd do anything
I'd give you my world
I'd wait forever to be your girl
(Just call out my name)
Just call out my name (and I will be there) and I will be there (ooh)
Just to show you how much I care (alright) (ooh)
I was born to make you happy, yeah (ooh) (oh yeah)

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one up in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
(Oh, oh)
I was born to make you happy
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

1) Lament of the Oppressed People
3:59, lyrics:
Oh my Lord with my heart I read about You
what You made in ancient times, about your glory, Your mercy and Love.
What You made for everyone of us.
I will never trust in material things,
when I found difficulties in my life
I join my hands to pray Your name,
You give me salvation from every problem.
But when I sin You punish me,
inside myself I know I'm wrong,
I feel my soul dirty and sad,
I feel all the shame of my sin.
In these hard times You make me understand,
I feel oppression in my soul,
a rising anguish in my heart,
I'm searching a way to implore Your forgiveness..
You see we're treated like dead meat,
Please save us my Lord,

we're nothing without You,
Don't forget us in our oppression, with our faces in the dust.
Rise up and run to us,
with Your help we'll find salvation,
Rise up and give Your hands,
Free ourselves with Your love!

2) The Wedding
3:09, lyrics:
With my passion and my faith
I want to sing this song for You
Words came out from my mouth
inspired by Your endless grace.
I want to thank You with my heart
'cause in You I find myself,
You watched deep inside my soul
You read the words between my feelings
(and forgived me from my sins).
So You saw that I was alone
and
You choose me with Your divine gift,
You gave me the princess of my heart
You blessed me in sacred wedding.
I will love her for all my life
I will never betray her

You fight with me all the temptations
She's my angel that I want to protect.
She's my only joy in life,
She's the greatest gift from you
Forever I'll bless your name oh Lord,
'cause
You blessed me in sacred wedding.

3) God Dominate the World
3:19, lyrics:
God for us is a secure refuge
In every difficulty we'll have no fear,
If earth tremble we pray Your name,
Lord of the universe is with us,
He protect us, the Lord of Jacobs.
The God of the universe is with us,
With His love, He protect our land,
Look at everything's he done on earth,
You must know that he's the only Lord.
Dominate the whole world oh God,
Dominate with all
Your love.
God protect us, master of the universe,
God is with us and we must have no fear.

4) Hymn to the Lord
3:29, lyrics:
From my heart I feel so deep to pray high my only Lord,
Acclaim His glory in the blue sky,
'cause with him I always ride.
You choose us to protect,
We pray everyday with joy,
Chanting in Your name, King of all the earth,
The true and only.
A solemn chanting arise for You my Lord
It's my eternal pray,
From Your glorious throne You rule above us all,

You rule above the earth.

5) Ode to the Mountain & the City
4:31, lyrics:
Unsiegeable fortress, Your mountain lair,Your holy sky throne, full of grace dominates.
Divine vision, the greatest mountains,
Love is celebrated in this temple,
A place calm immersed in nature,
Peaceful vision of Heaven,
You made it stable,
Forever and ever...
From the borders of earth came our ode,
from the cities we builted by
Your grace,
Salvation came by
Your hand, as we admire Your
wonderful opera.
Contemplating
Your mountains and cities we can tell
The next generations that we are proud about
You Lord,
Our master eternal and guide forever.

Jesus Is My Hope When I Am Hopeless (ALBUM VERSION)

12 May, 2014, Independent, CD-R
26 August, 2014, Independent, Mediafire

All tracks that were present on the demo, were remastered for this version.

1) I Am Not Worthy
time unknown, lyrics:
Worthy I am not, my God.
Everyday I try to be, with all myself, with my soul.
But when I look at the past I see blaek times,
remembrance so sad, how much I was drowned in sin.
And so I am, when i try to resist, the devil strikes back to ruin my life,
dedicated to my God.
I praise you my Lord, and your son Jesus Christ, keep me away from sin,
protect me against the devil's temptations.
I know I'm not worthy to be part of
Your holy people, but save me my God,
with just a single word
You can save my heart and soul.
Keep me away from the devil's path,
keep me on the light of Jesus Christ,
save my soul from darkness my God,
Protect me and my family against the suffering and the sorrow of evil.
I praise you my God, my savior and only guide.

2) Mocked & Derided
time unknown, lyrics:
Mocked and derided I am, by the fans of the devil's sound,
'cause I choose this music as symbol to show the eternal light of God
to the ones who are lost in darkness.
They laugh at me because of my faith in Christ, our words of love and
human justice are seen like signs of weakness.
The servants of evil and nihilism think to be hard as rocks, but they don't
see how deep is their inner emptiness of soul.
They laugh to us and accuse the Bible, but they don't know the real
truth of Jesus Christ.
They don't wanna see, and they deny, (also) blinded by the plague of
black metal music.
The devil play his tricks to Christian also, putting them one against the others,
while Jesus command to love your neighbours, Christian people attack, accuse
and mock their holy brothers.
Read the Bible and the message of Jesus, and follow it, practicing it in your life.
Don't care if you're mocked-up, forgive your enemy and pray for him.
Stay with the Lord my friend, stay by His side, forever!

3) A Concrete Faith
time unknown, lyrics:
It's difficult to explain to common people why I believe in God,
Why I deny the theories of certain sciences, and so the evolution too.
But so clear now I see, after reading to The Bible, and praying the name of God.
He never deluded me, and I feel Him always by my side.
Even in time of darkest temptations, I know very well the only solution,
praying His name so high with faith, it's the way to save me from darkness.
The things around me are so crystal clear, when I discovered the will of God.
We are waiting for His kingdom, the resurrection for a new mankind.
I pray with all myself for all the people of the world,
I hope to be a testimony to introduce Christ in the life of all people.

4) False Beliefs
time unknown, lyrics:
Sad I am when I see superficial rich people who don't see so clear,
Their souls are lost and they are searching a way to fill their emptiness.
So they discover false beliefs, fake realms of spirituality,
philosophies builted over nothingness, oriental deceits driven by the devil's hands.
Buddhism and zen, islam and hinduism, corrupted forms of Christianity,
and idolatry of fake idols (also people of show business' worship).
I pray my God to recover these souls, to let them realize how fake are these false beliefs,
to discover the Holy Scripture, and the will of God through His Son,
to stay away from Satan's deceit, to erase forever these false beliefs
and stay unite in the only light.

5) World's Situation (Awaiting His Kingdom)
time unknown, lyrics unknown

6) Unblack Metal Hymn
time unknown, lyrics unknown

7) Jesus Will Come Again
time unknown, lyrics unknown

8) A Sovereign Fortress (Antestor cover)
time unknown, lyrics:
In You, I have taken refuge
Never let me be put to shame
As
You are righteous rescue me and save my life
Hear me and set me free
Be a rock of refuge for me,
Where I may ever find safety at
Your call
For
You are my towering crag and stronghold
O Lord , keep my life safe from the wicked

You are my hope, o Lord, my trust, o Lord, since boyhood
From birth I have leaned upon
You
My protector since I left my mother's womb

Let all my traducers be shamed and dishonored
Let all who seek my hurt be covered with scorn
But I will wait in continual hope
I will praise you again and again
All day long
Your righteousness, Your saving acts,
Shall be upon my lips
You shall ever be the theme of my praise
Your righteousness,
Yours alone

You are my hope, o Lord, my trust, o Lord, since boyhood
From birth I have leaned upon
You
My protector since I left my mother's womb

For
You have done great things
Who is like
You?

9) Servants of Mammon (As I Wept for Thee cover)
time unknown, lyrics:
The words thee spit
So cunning and wit
Are like (pitch) black bile (oil)
A sermon of sputum so vile

A sermon of greed so vile
Wide alike the mighty Nile
Alike the stench of a rotten pile
Carried by the wind and spread a many mile

Malicious servants of Mammon
Covetnous is Lucifer's son
Yesteryears Pharao's of the Golden Dawn
And today's kings dress thyself in a golden gown
And I will watch thee fall down in renown

The stench of gold... it's so old
Eras of putrefacted wealth glowing cold
Vespasian said: pecunia non olet
But i smell the stench of the dead

The words thee spit
So cunning and wit
Are like black bile
A sermon of sputum so vile

A sermon of greed so vile
Wide alike the mighty Nile
Alike the stench of a rotten pile
Carried by the wind and spread a many mile

The stench of gold...
Eras of putrefacted wealth glowing cold
it's so old...The stench of gold...

Vespasian said: pecunia non olet
But i smell the stench of the dead...

i smell the stench of the dead...

10) Cherry Orchards (Celtic Frost cover)
time unknown, lyrics:
Dancing violet dreams.
Joining nights of satin fame.
Acting jewel games.
All forgiven, you streak my heart.
More than pleasure in ice cold flames.
Crying soft, as love flies tame.
Swelling tears in diaries of lies.
Fading lights, as songs die quiet.
Bleeding sweet for dying blind.
Masking fears of silent decline.

Cherry orchards. Ginger looks upon pain.
Cherry orchards. August fades like tears in vain.

Winter's final shine. Dressing gold, one last time.
Seep from lace. Roses for an unborn face.

Cherry orchards. Ginger looks upon pain.
Cherry orchards. August fades like tears in vain.

11) Murderous Trap (Frozen Plasma cover)
time unknown, lyrics:
She played a perfect love scene
Pretty girl of sweet sixteen
Shiny glitter in her blue eyes
Not a girl a man would despise
She caused in me a great stir
My little private puppeteer
Perfect silky white and soft skin
A seductive but forbidden sin

She played a perfect love scene
Pretty girl of sweet sixteen
Strange desire in her blue eyes
Like a devil in disguise
She was playing with my weakness
A unique emotional excess?
Her intentions I will never know
Sweet sixteen it's time to let you go

She played her game so good
Sixteen but tough and cold
And I knew I should
Should get a hold of myself
Wild thoughts in my head
Murderous Cunning Trap
I want you she said
Emblaze my desire

The Underground Compilation (compilation, January 2020, Independent)
Format: CD-R

Supposedly released in 2020 although I never heard of it (and it wasn't added to Metal Archives) until late 2022?

Note that online, this is said to be released by Kalrog Records. That's incorrect - that label wasn't started until either 2021 or 2022.

Written in the layout:
"Animae Capronii was founded in 2003 first under the name of Armagherion. In 2008 the band changed from secular black metal to unblack metal. This compilation contains tracks of the Christian black metal period 2008-2014. In 2015 Cesare Sannino, the man behind this project changed the band's name again in Trust Your Heart, and he still continue to make music in epic heavy/power metal style."
