What we did is sacrilegious We’ve been fighting against the odds What we did is sacrilegious But we had to burn that book They will give to this world their idols and the illusion of choice Illusion of choice Impostors, who will rise and who will fall? The Order is born I will give you my life, I will save you all We’ve been searching for the answers to not lead this world into madness And I will give you my life, I will save you all My demise, the sacrifice of one to bring the truth to this world From the north to the south, from the east to the west This is where we’ll fight them and keep our promises We want to free this world Don’t turn the page, just burn the book Carrying the torch till the point of no return This is the light of a new war And he was running through the night for miles and miles To bring the truth to the crowd, but they tracked him down Sewed his eyes and painted black tears on his face from the ashes of fire You can’t save them, you won’t save them We’ve been searching for the answers to not lead this world into madness I will give you my life, I will save you all My demise, the sacrifice of one to bring the truth to this world And all I’ve ever loved has been taken away from me From the ashes of my soul I will change my destiny I push my throat against your knife cause I’m not afraid to die You’ll watch me bleed but never see me cry And here we come To avenge our brothers and sisters The fallen ones Sometimes violence is the only answer Cursed from the birth Carrying the weight of the world Martyrs of doom Cursed from the birth Planting the seeds of evil for all humanity The Order must be stopped from our community And all I’ve ever loved has been taken away from me From the ashes of my soul I will change my destiny I push my throat against your knife cause I’m not afraid to die You’ll watch me bleed but never see me cry We are coming What we did is sacrilegious, we’ve been fighting against the odds What we did is sacrilegious, but we had to burn that book You can’t save them, you won’t save them We’ve been searching for the answers to not lead this world into madness And I will give you my life, I will save you all My demise, the sacrifice of one to bring the truth is this world

The king is back to reclaim his throne I’m gonna blow you away I’m back for my land Exiled and silence Deprived from my own royalty But I’m not the same I changed in those years of tortures and torments that your prominence caused in my head. Hear me roar rising from my own grave Coming back to take what’s mine and watch you falling from grace With your greed you signed your decay You won’t rule forever They’re calling your name And screaming this symphony Rewriting the history and turning the key The whole crowd is raging for blood and it won’t stop to scream your name until the blade will be cutting your head off I step up to the plate to take what’s mine Like a wave I will crush on your fortress that’s made of lies Oh you never learn You’ll never learn ha-ha-ha-ha I claim the throne that I have built with sweat and blood The crown you wear with majesty while our people die and you’re buried in gold. With your greed you signed your decay You won’t rule forever They’re calling your name And screaming this symphony Rewriting the history and turning the key The whole crowd is raging for blood and it won’t stop to scream your name until the blade will be cutting your head off I step up to the plate to take what’s mine Like a wave I will crush on your fortress that’s made of lies Hear me roar rising from my own grave Coming back to take what’s mine and watch you falling from grace Hear me roar rising from my own grave Coming back to take what’s mine and watch you falling from grace With your greed you signed your decay You won’t rule forever They’re calling your name And screaming this symphony Rewriting the history and turning the key With your greed you signed your decay You won’t rule forever They’re calling your name And screaming this symphony Rewriting the history and turning the key I am justice I am solace for the weak The time has come for me to show you what’s my legacy I am vengeance The wrath that you can’t escape My reign will live forever Take no prisoners

Sinner 03:28
I lean back and watch my world burn cause I’m guilty I confess, I admit that this was all my fault Alone in a casket and consumed by the worms My body is ready to accept the consequences of my failure And I can’t live without you, but you’re gone And I can’t live with myself, anymore Can’t find the sun when you’re enclosed by the clouds The vision can’t be clear while drowning into the mud The sickness in your brain is coming out to play And you don’t know what are you doing cause you just need to sin, sin, sin Do you ever feel like you don’t know what’s wrong? With your actions you hurt people while you’re feeling so alone, you’re alone I need to wash away the dirt from those hands Throwing away the guilt and stop dwelling on my worst sins I grieve on what I left behind I can’t see the light I’m blind, no place to hide Where’s my peace of mind? Grimed and consumed by guilt waiting for my rebirth I grieve on what I left behind I can’t see the light I’m blind, no place to hide Where’s my peace of mind? Grimed and consumed by guilt waiting for my rebirth Can’t find the sun when you’re enclosed by the clouds The vision can’t be clear while drowning into the mud The sickness in your brain is coming out to play And you don’t know what are you doing cause you just need to sin, sin, sin Do you ever feel like you don’t know what’s wrong? With your actions you hurt people while you’re feeling so alone, you’re alone I need to wash away the dirt from those hands Throwing away the guilt and stop dwelling on my worst sins And I can’t live without you, I can’t live And I can’t live with myself Anymore

What is this shiver that is scrolling down my spine? I feel like the walls are caving In Do you remember when I always used to smile? These memories are killing me, killing me Because I'm never enough and I always give up A useless piece of shit and I never finish what I start With my head always down And my headphones on I will never be the same I am always on my own, alone I've put myself into fire trying to chase my dreams Put my head underwater There's some secrets I can't keep You can't erase what you've done and those marks on my skin Who will pay for my nightmares, and wasting my best years? You stole every piece Every piece of my sanity I'm now on my knees I have lost my identity I've put myself into fire trying to chase my dreams Put my head underwater There's some secrets I can't keep You can't erase what you've done and those marks on my skin Who will pay for my nightmares, and wasting my best years? I still remember the last words you said to me And I can't take it anymore You tear me down from the inside out My words won't be ignored I still remember the last words you said to me, and I can't take it anymore I've put myself into fire trying to chase my dreams Put my head underwater There's some secrets I can't keep You can't erase what you've done and those marks on my skin Who will pay for my nightmares, and wasting my best years? Too many secrets that I can't keep That I can't keep anymore Too many times I have seen this shit Swallowing words and closing doors The darkness is consuming me I feel the pain on my bones And I'll let him take control of my body I'll let him take me home. You can't erase what you've done and those marks on my skin Who will pay for my nightmares and wasting my best years?

Brothers and sisters Welcome to the final act of this story The final fight that will rewrite the history Eradicated from your school books You’ll never hear from us We’re erased from the present and our temples turned to dust But we will come back rising from the dead It’s the dawn of our long isolation The sunset of a new generation This is the sign, leave a mark on this world Let’s revolt, show your teeth, we want riot in the halls Now take my hand and join The Covenant I still hear their cry for help While I paint my black tears on my face Shadows in the night, trying to resist Hunted from the ancient creed All is lost, erased from reality Paint your black tears Paint your black tears We lost our cause to change morality Betrayed by modern society Martyrs in this mad apocalypse We lost our cause to change morality Betrayed by modern society Backstabbed by a change of loyalty We’re dancing dead upon our graves We’re fearless, we will come back We’re dancing dead upon our graves We’re fearless, we will come back Engraved on my heart Keep your promises We will bring the change Starting from the kings to beggars on the streets Engraved on my heart Keep your promises We will bring the change Starting from the kings to beggars on the streets Engraved on my heart Keep your promises We will bring the change Starting from the kings to beggars on the streets Engraved on my heart Keep your promises We will bring the change Starting from the kings to beggars on the streets We lost our cause to change morality Betrayed by modern society Martyrs in this mad apocalypse We lost our cause to change morality Betrayed by modern society Backstabbed by a change of loyalty We’re dancing dead upon our graves We’re fearless, we will come back We’re dancing dead upon our graves We’re fearless, we will come back Take my hand and Join The Covenant If you’re giving up If you’re on the edge of your misery Take my hand and Join The Covenant They turned their back on you You don’t know what to do And you won’t break free If you’re giving up If you’re on the edge of your misery Take my hand and Join The Covenant They turned their back on you You don’t know what to do And you won’t break free

about

‘Sacrilegious’ was written in the best way ever, by five brothers (from different mothers) having fun together without limits and boundaries.
In July 2017 we created what we call ‘The Covenant’ saga, which is our theme and concept.
In the first video, you can see people with body paint and black tears on their face but it’s not clear why and what it’s going on, same thing with the next works as ‘This is gonna hurt’ and our last single for ‘Marked’. Well, Sacrilegious is a prequel and explains it all, this is the scenario.
The story brings us back in 1799, middle Italy, where an elite group of rich and evil people are founding a secret society called ‘The First Order’, they possess an ancient magical book that must be burned for not letting them dictate the socials and morals laws of the future.
A young boy gets caught up in one of their rituals and ‘The Order’ kills him but not before painting some ‘black tears’ on his face as their tradition. His parents and little brother was searching for him and saw the scene, they sworn revenge and decided to create their resistance called ‘The Covenant’ while painting black tears of their newborn baby as a mark of their hate against them. Symbology is very important for our band and we like to create a universe where our listeners can be entertained and ecxited like us.
The sound and style of the album was composed solely with the intention of translating emotions into music. Our guitarist Vaela took inspiration from Andy’s concept and storytelling by creating scenarios, rebellion, revolt in a magnificent and eightieth-century period, a sort of dystopian past / future where humanity needs someone to come forward and subvert sovereigns. For the technical department, the aggressiveness of the musical genre we have chosen, perfectly embodies the concept of revolt. Pounding riffs, sudden breaks, giant and oppressive orchestras that contextualize those baroque-like scenarios we had in mind.
Everything is accompanied by a romantic vein, we are recreating a sort of fairy tale with a dramatic ending, an "anti-tale", so all the melodies are inspired by classical compositions. We don't need a theoretical musical training to translate these ideas into music and this is kinda ‘Sacrilegious’.
Daniele Gottardo is the only guest artist chosen for this album, one of the best guitarists of the world praised by Steve Vai, Jason Becker and many of the guitar gods as him out there; his eight finger tapping technique will blow your mind in our third track of the album called “Dethroned”. Coming from the generic metalcore / post hardcore genre in the first album, we present to you our new sound, a mix of progressive metal with ‘djenty’ elements, huge symphonic and romantic orchestras, insane and technical guitar solos and catchy choruses.
The genre of this new album? You have to tell us! Join the Covenant.
