Clothed in Splendor (single, 29 May, 2021, Independent)
Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

1) Clothed in Splendor
15:41, lyrics:
Thou art clothed in splendor
Thine eyes glow with flames
Surrounded by darkness yet burning bright
Thine flames consume me

Crackling rolls of monstrous thunder revealing lightning
The ground shakes from the sound of His voice

Clouds circling all around
Golden Light on a White Throne
The purest of gemstones refracting it

Wearing a crown so beautiful and so majestic
Beyond what words can describe

His Kingly robe
Is holding colors nonexistent to the human eye

Absorb me into Thyself
Pull me into Thy Presence
Take me away into the Divine realm
Thou takest me captive

Transcending the nocturnal dimensions
Ascending into the heavenly places
Brightness so black is filling the night sky
The darkness dissolves around me

I see the Cherubim
I hear the Seraphim
I feel the Anointing
I hear You calling my name

The demons trembling
The blackness fading
My God is glowing
His Light expanding
and growing brighter

Hear my supplication
Hear my plea
Hear me
Hear me

Cleanse me of sin with Your Blood
Take off this clothe of darkness
Renew my mind

Create me a new heart
Guide my understanding into all truth
Let this intimacy grow between us
As I worship You, in Spirit and in Truth

Soul as one
Bask within
The Divine Presence
Of the Most High God

God the Father, Yahweh
God the Son, Jesus Christ
God the Holy Spirit, the Shekinah

Holy is the Father
Holy is the Son
Holy is the Spirit

Ave Sancti Trinitatis

Come soon, my Lord
Maranatha!

Come soon, my Lord
Maranatha!

Thou takest me captive

Transcending the nocturnal dimensions
Ascending into the heavenly places
Brightness so black is filling the night sky
The darkness dissolves around me

I see the Cherubim
I hear the Seraphim
I feel the Anointing
I hear You calling my name

The demons trembling
The blackness fading
My God is glowing
His Light expanding
and growing brighter

Hear my supplication
Hear my plea
Hear me
Hear me

Holy is God
Holy is God
Holy is God
Holy is God

Come soon, my Lord
Maranatha!

Come soon, my Lord
Maranatha!

Ave Sancti Trinitatis

Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

The new name of Maranatha's "The Cosmic Jewel" album.

In this album teaser video, "On My Deathbed" was announced to be 17:01. At some point, 11 seconds were added to it!

1) Divinity Amidst the Spectral Winds
21:31, instrumental

2) On My Deathbed
17:12, lyrics:
I lay on my deathbed, my fate is decided
my life fades into the void, my works now vanity
I lie in the absence of hope on this Earth
I cry myself to sleep, I am awaiting my final breath

Lost loved ones now do I see, standing before me
they beckon me to come closer, to draw near my end

I weep bitter tears, in sorrow and grief do I rest
demons crawl around my room at night
the black shadows giggle and laugh in mockery
I writhe in misery, tormented they approach

the foot of my bed is now
a dwelling place for fallen spirits
no one told me that this would be my fate
no one warned me of what it means to be too late

No one told me of the signs, of the end of the line
no one told me how to be set free
how to escape death and its cold grip on me

I seek remission, I seek salvation
I seek a new destination

I lay on my deathbed, my fate is decided
my life fades into the void, my works now vanity
I lie in the absence of hope on this Earth
I cry myself to sleep, I am awaiting my final breath

Loved ones now do I see, standing before me
they beckon me to come closer, to draw near my end

I weep bitter tears, in sorrow and grief do I rest
demons crawl around my room at night
the black shadows giggle and laugh in mockery
I writhe in misery, tormented they approach

the foot of my bed is now
a dwelling place for fallen spirits

no one told me that this would be my fate
no one told me that this would be my fate

no one warned me of what it means to be too late

No one told me of the signs, of the end of the line
no one told me how to be free
how to escape death and its cold grip on me

I weep bitter tears, in sorrow and grief
demons crawl around my room at night
the black shadows giggle and laugh in mockery
I writhe in misery, tormented they approach

the foot of my bed is now
a dwelling place for fallen spirits
no one told me that this would be my fate
no one warned me what it means to be too late

No one told me of the signs, of the end of the line
no one told me how to be set free
how to escape death and its cold grip on me

I seek remission, I seek salvation
I seek a new destination

I lay on my deathbed, my fate is decided
my life fades into the void, my works now vanity
I lie in the absence of hope on this Earth
I cry myself to sleep, I am awaiting my final breath

Lost loved ones now do I see, standing before me
they beckon me to come closer, to draw near my end

I weep bitter tears, in sorrow and grief do I rest
demons crawl around my room at night

I lay on my deathbed, my fate is decided
my life fades into the void, my works now vanity
I lie in the absence of hope on this Earth
I cry myself to sleep, I am awaiting my final breath

Lost loved ones now do I see, standing before me
they beckon me to come closer, to draw near my end

I weep bitter tears, in sorrow and grief do I rest
demons crawl around my room at night
the black shadows giggle and laugh in mockery
I writhe in misery, tormented they approach

the foot of my bed is now
a dwelling place for fallen spirits
no one told me that this would be my fate
no one warned me of what it means to be too late

No one told me of the signs, of the end of the line
no one told me how to be set free
how to escape death and its cold grip on me

I seek remission, I seek salvation
I seek a new destination

I lay on my deathbed, my fate is decided
my life fades into the void, my works are now vanity


3) Garment of Tears
14:03, lyrics:
Behold, I am washed by the Blood of the Lamb
I will offer incense to the Triune One....

Garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
broken, doubting, all is seemingly hopeless
garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness

I wake in my silence, only to smile once again

I thought that all was lost, but I was rescued
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
I wept bitter tears

I wept bitter tears
in my suffering I was made complete
yet nothing

I was nothing

But now I stand triumphant, as I light a candle in Your Name

Oh, what was lost and oh how it can be found
Oh, how wretched I have been, I needed to repent
I slept in agony but now I see so clearly
I was washed by the Blood, I was ashamed but now
I am redeemed

Behold, I am washed by the Blood of the Lamb

Garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
broken, doubting, all is seemingly hopeless
garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness

I wake in my silence, only to smile once again

I thought that all was lost, but I was rescued
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
I wept bitter tears

I wept bitter tears
in my suffering I was made complete
yet nothing

I was nothing

But now I stand triumphant, as I light a candle in Your Name

Oh, what was lost and oh how it can be found
Oh, how wretched I have been, I needed to repent
I slept in agony but now I see so clearly
I was washed by the Blood, I was ashamed but now
I am redeemed

Behold, I am washed by the Blood of the Lamb

Garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
broken, doubting, all is seemingly hopeless
garment of tears, I am clothed in sadness

I wake in my silence, only to smile once again

I thought that all was lost, but I was rescued
I seen the darkness, I fought for so long
I wept bitter tears

I wept bitter tears
in my suffering I was made complete
yet nothing

I was nothing


4) Thy Kingdom Come
3:08, lyrics:
Our Father Which art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name.

Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done in earth, as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.

Amen.

HELL NO

BAND NAME: Hell No
GENRE: Unblack Metal / ???
STATUS: Changed name
(Active under new name, Bedeiah)
LOCATION: USA (Douglas, Arizona)

I don't know what the music sounds like. [This eBay listing] calls it "Christian unblack black metal - experimental demo". I'm not sure if "experimental" just refers to the demo name, or if the music itself is somehow experimental.

Bedeiah's "Experimental Test Demo" was described as being influenced by "Darkthrone, Necromantia, Burzum, Absurd and so forth. [. . .] was a similar quality to Burzum's 1991 (Demo I)." However I don't know if that's the same release as the one on this page, or if it's a different demo.

All I know for sure is that the name was changed after Monje discovered another band already using the name "Hell No".

Lineup:
F. A. Monje - Everything

Discography:


Experimental Test Demo 2003 (demo, 2003, PRIVATE RELEASE Independent)
Format: Cassette, limited (??) copies

According to Monje, only a handful of people got this. He guesses 3 at most. He also confirms this was the only thing recorded under this project name.

As stated above, I'm not sure if this is the same release as the other "Experimental Test Demo" or not. As such I also don't have the tracklist.

Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

1) Pestem som smyger i mörket
7:02, lyrics:
Han ska rädda dig
från jägarens snara
och den härjande pesten.
Med sina fjädrar täcker han dig,
under hans vingar
finner du tillflykt.
Hans trofasthet är sköld och skärm.
Du ska inte frukta nattens fasor,
inte pilen som flyger om dagen,
inte pesten som smyger i mörkret
eller sjukdomen som härjar
mitt på dagen.

Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachtani? (single, 27 March, 2021, Independent)
Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

About this song, the artist writes on Bandcamp,
"This song applies [Psalm 88] on the crucifed Christ. The chorus is taken from the Gospel of Mark [chapter 15 vers 34]. The Aramaic text translates to 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?' "

1) Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachtani?
6:44, lyrics:
Herre, min frälsnings Gud,
dag och natt ropar jag till dig.
Låt min bön komma
inför ditt ansikte,
vänd ditt öra till mitt rop,
för min själ är mättad med lidanden
och mitt liv närmar sig dödsriket.
Jag räknas bland dem
som går ner i graven,
jag är som en man utan livskraft.
Jag är övergiven bland de döda,
likt de fallna som ligger i graven,
dem du inte längre tänker på
och som inte mer
är i dina händer.

Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachtani?

Du har sänkt mig längst ner i hålan,
ner i mörkret, ner i djupet.
Din vrede vilar tung över mig,
alla dina böljor låter du
skölja över mig.

Du har fjärmat mina förtrogna
från mig,
du har gjort mig vidrig för dem,
fångad så att jag inte kommer ut.
Mitt öga förtärs av lidande.
Herre, jag ropar till dig varje dag,
jag sträcker mina händer
mot dig.
Gör du under för de döda,
kan skuggorna resa sig
och tacka dig?
Förkunnar man din nåd i graven,
din trofasthet i avgrunden?
Känner man dina under i mörkret,
din rättfärdighet i glömskans land?

Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachtani?

Men jag ropar till dig, Herre,
om morgonen möter dig min bön.
Varför, Herre,
förkastar du min själ?
Varför döljer du
ditt ansikte för mig?

Plågad är jag och döende
från min ungdom,
jag bär förskräckelser från dig
och förtvivlar.
Din vredes lågor sveper över mig,
dina fasor förgör mig.
Ständigt omsluter de mig
som vatten,
omringar mig helt och hållet.
Mina nära och kära
har du fjärmat från mig.
I mina förtrognas ställe
har jag bara mörker.

Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachtani?

Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachtani?

Han skall krossas (single, 3 April, 2021, Independent)
Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

The lyrics are inspired by [Psalm 69] and [Romans 16:20].
The choice of cover art was inspired by Hebrews 2:14-15.

1) Han skall krossas
4:22, lyrics:
Fräls mig, Gud!
Vattnet når mig till halsen.
Jag har sjunkit i djupaste dy
utan fotfäste,
jag är ute på djupt vatten
och strömmen sköljer över mig.
Jag har ropat mig trött,
min strupe är hes,
min blick är matt
av väntan på Gud.

Fridens Gud ska snart krossa Satan under era fötter.

De som hatar mig utan anledning
är fler än håren på mitt huvud.
Många vill förgöra mig,
de är mina fiender utan orsak.
Vad jag inte har stulit
måste jag ersätta.
Gud, du känner min dårskap,
min skuld är inte dold för dig.
För din skull får jag utstå hån,
vanära täcker mitt ansikte.

Fridens Gud ska snart krossa Satan under era fötter.

De gav mig galla att äta
och ättika att dricka i min törst.
Låt deras bord framför dem
bli en snara, ett straff och en fälla.
Låt deras ögon förmörkas
så att de inte ser,
låt deras ben ständigt vackla.
Ös din vrede över dem,
låt din glödande harm
hinna upp dem.

Kom till min själ, återlös den,
friköp mig från mina fiender.
Jag vill prisa Guds namn med sång
och upphöja honom
med tacksägelse.

Fridens Gud ska snart krossa Satan under era fötter.

Death Dethroned (single, 4 April, 2021, Independent)
Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)

"The lyrics are based on Hebr 2:14-15; Matt 28:1-8, except for the chorus".

1) Death Dethroned
4:52, lyrics:
Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death – that is, the devil – and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.

Death dethroned

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: “He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.” Now I have told you.’

Mose kallade till sig alla de äldste i Israel och sade till dem: ”Gå och hämta ett lamm för varje hushåll och slakta påskalammet! Ta en knippa isop och doppa den i blodet som är i skålen och stryk blodet på det övre dörrträet och de båda dörrposterna. Ingen av er får gå ut genom dörren till sitt hus före morgonen, för Herren ska gå fram för att slå Egypten. Men när han ser blodet på det övre dörrträet och de båda dörrposterna ska han gå förbi dörren och inte låta fördärvaren komma in i era hem och slå er.

Min tid är i dina händer.
Rädda mig från mina fienders hand,
från dem som förföljer mig.

Du utlämnar mig inte
i fiendens hand,
du ställer mina fötter
på rymlig plats.

Förbarma dig över mig, Herre,
jag är i nöd!

Jag är glömd och borta
ur deras hjärtan, som död,
jag har blivit som ett krossat kärl.

Lovad är Herren!
Han har visat mig
sin underbara nåd
i en belägrad stad.

10) Abandon Blasphemies - Carcaças Humanas
3:42, lyrics:
As hordas infernais levantam-se do abismo
Marchando rumo a sua destruição
Das cinzas da destruição
E de seus vermes serão aprisionandos
Sobre o som das trombetas celestiais

Caraças humanas
O pecado da podridão
O salário do pecado
Agora sofrem por rejeitarem a Deus

Enxofre são seus cobertores
A sua paz é o tormento
Em uma dimensão infernal

Demônios e humanos unam-se
Em dor e tormento pela sua rebelião

Hordas infernais
Aqui acaba sua marcha

Mortos venham ao meu reino
Vocês não rejeitarem ao meu nome

Agora o galardão pertence a suas almas

Eu sou Jesus Cristo

As hordas infernais levantam-se do abismo
Marchando rumo a sua destruição
Das cinzas da destruição
E de seus vermes serão aprisionandos
Sobre o som das trombetas celestiais

Caraças humanas
O pecado da podridão
O salário do pecado
Agora sofrem por rejeitarem a Deus

Enxofre são seus cobertores
A sua paz é o tormento
Em uma dimensão infernal

Demônios e humanos unam-se
Em dor e tormento pela sua rebelião

Mortos venham ao meu reino
Vocês não rejeitarem ao meu nome

Agora o galardão pertence a suas almas

Eu sou Jesus Cristo

Hordas infernais
Aqui acaba sua marcha

Miscellaneous stuff:
"Em tempos de guerra marchamos, hinos de louvores entoamos ao Soberano Senhor de tudo
Na escuridão brilhará a luz que dizima as hordas do mal
Hail Yeshua...
