Dark Litanies of Terra

by Monasterium Imperi

supported by

Wandering Prince Vampire No one needs to be a believer, or to think of the impossible Beyond, to let oneself be carried by Voices from another time, where the Cathedrals were built in the Gothic ... And leave your Soul cradled by echoing vibrations through architectures from another era.

FLESH MECHANIC Simply breathtaking. The minimalistic synth backgrounds and chanting perfectly capture the vibe of the Warhammer 40K universe, on one hand offering a peaceful retreat from chainsword combat, yet still retaining some of that everpresent galactic dread.

FOR THE EMPEROR
Favorite track: Sanctus Terra.

hallowedhalls Resonating hymns with a simplicity and subtlety suited to silent contemplation and introspection. Favorite track: Dominus-Magisterium.

Televiper Warhammer 40K inflected dark ambient, heavy on the vocal drone. Utterly compelling. Favorite track: Fratres.

DANIIEL Masterful droning catechisms praising the Emperor of Mankind.

"They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me...They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that no foe can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear." Favorite track: Pax Imperatoris.

about

"Dark Litanies of Terra" is a set of seven priestly chantings dedicated to planet Earth, the cradle of Humanity. Deep bassy monastic vocals coming from the enormous Cathedrals spread the message of Deliverance and Truth. The gregorian chants transmit the distant atmosphere of dark future - the gothic worlds of Man are in peril, and the lodge-masters seek to unify the fallen cults in the name of Pax Imperatoris. Immense and ancient giant statues, once a display of might and glory, now stand dilapidated upon the grey skies, awaiting the repentance of the ones who strayed from the Holy path of Eternal Providence. At the forgotten Monastery, the dominus-priest gathers his disciples to await the dawning of the red moon.

This album is partially and indirectly inspired by the fascinating Warhammer 40,000 universe and lore. It may as well serve as a soundtrack when reading the literature/playing the game/praying to the Emperor or pondering about the Grimdark future. Aside from that, it does not represent a direct, straightforward building upon the lore, and is in no way affiliated with GW and related trademarks.
