Imperial Age - 'Gnosis' (official lyric video)
[Intro]
Scio me nihil scire
Sic parvis magna
Sic semper erat, et sic
Semper erit
[Breakdown 1]
Via
Via est clausa
Via
Via est clausa
Paucis
Pauci transibunt
Paucis
Sapienti Sat
[Verse 1]
You have believed that there is more -
More than your eyes can see
Always to search - thats what you swore
To become free
Once you begin - there's no return
No way to close the gate
You are alone - no-one to help
Your company's fate
[Chorus]
Follow the light - your face will bleed, scarred by stars
It's alright - only a tortured soul deserves the might
The waves of time drive you further offshore
And you will always want more, more!
[Breakdown 2]
Day and night
Over multiple lives
Endless search
You can never prepare for true life
[Verse 2]
You sacrificed all that you had
Everyday sorrows and joys
Are not for you - everyone else
Seem like children with toys
You've laid your life to step on the air
To catch an invisible bird
You can not teach what you have learned -
There is no such word
[Chorus]
Follow the light - your face will bleed, scarred by stars
It's alright - only a tortured soul deserves the might
The waves of time drive you further offshore
And you will always want more, more!
[Breakdown 3]
A single glance in the eyes of infinity
Consumes mind and body and soul
The lost vicinity of divinity,
Desperate urge of becoming whole
Whats the ultimate sacrifice
And the ultimate heaviest price?
For knowing the answers of space and time
Infinite gnosis, can I make you mine?
Scio me nihil scire
Sic parvis magna
Sic semper erat, et sic
Semper erit

Οι Imperial Age μας έρχονται από την Ρωσία. Δημιουργήθηκαν στην Μόσχα πριν από μία ντουζίνα έτη (2012) από τον τραγουδιστή και πληκτρά Alexander Osipov ως solo project με session μουσικούς, αλλά εξελίχθηκαν σε "κανονικό" συγκρότημα.
Ως προς το μουσικό τους ύφος; Συμφωνικό - οπερετικό heavy metal με βασική επιρροή τους Therion. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τρεις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, δύο EPs, τρία live albums και μπόλικα singles. Εν έτει 2024 "χτυπούν" με το τραγούδι - single "Gnosis", για το οποίο μας λένε:

«This is our darkest and heaviest song so far. We have introduced elements of modern metal: downtuned guitars, extreme tempos and its also the first song where Jane does extreme vocals (along with clean singing). Oh yes, and it has 3 deathcore-style breakdowns!»
