PKMetal I had never heard of Te Deum, despite their having existed in the heydey of Death-Doom. The pure form is scarce in 2022, so I'm happy that's what they play, and play well. Tempos are mid to high, harmonies are plentiful, and a layer of keys is always there adding tons of texture. After sampling their older work, I can say this is their most mature effort, and the switch to English really works well. There's not a single dull track. I love this album and really hope the band stays active.

Clone 05:40
How come you can fly? In your world there’s no sky. How come you can love? You can’t anything gain. You have never been poor, your compassion is lie, You have never been burnt. How come you feel pain? How come you can dream by the alien rules? How come you create with not your own tools? You are a clone. You’re just a clone. What can you understand if your views are imposed? How come you can say by not your own words? It was swift like a blast, and your childhood is lost. What an alien mind has fed you by false thoughts! How come you can dream by the alien rules? How come you create with not your own tools? You are a clone. You’re just a clone. How come you can fly? You are a clone. How come you can love? You’re just a clone. How come you can dream by the alien rules? How come you create with not your own tools? You are a clone. You’re just a clone. Clone!

In the sky white rays in motion, Where reality is a dream. Just oblivion and delusion So sincerely you esteem. Your reality is twirled. You discover a new world. There is a battle between light and darkness, Evil reality is reflected in dreams. All questions always are waiting for answers, Mind of the sky will win by all means! Like a strong wind, your ideas Are disturbing your repose. And you don’t have panaceas For this pain you can’t oppose. Let the pain go away, And enjoy your new day. There is a battle between light and darkness, Evil reality is reflected in dreams. All questions always are waiting for answers, Mind of the sky will win by all means!

City on Fire 05:54
In my dreams the city’s in fire, You pull your hands to me and cry. Shadows around, and you can’t hide. The vicious circle, the endless night! The city in fire in dreams of mine – I feel the pain. Even stars cry in the dark sky, Like fire rain. The wind of fate will drive away Me to grey dreams. Like the night shade I fall and fade In silence streams. Into the sea tears drip and dive, You try to hide eyes from your life. You wish to be by the wind blown, But shadows won’t leave you alone! The city in fire in dreams of mine – I feel the pain. Even stars cry in the dark sky, Like fire rain. The wind of fate will drive away Me to grey dreams. Like the night shade I fall and fade In silence streams. The city in fire in dreams of mine – I feel the pain. Even stars cry in the dark sky, Like fire rain. The wind of fate will drive away Me to grey dreams. Like the night shade I fall and fade In silence streams.

Lie 04:46
The starry sky And black night Are my companions Today. The angels Of Dark and Light Follow me Along the way. The shadows will close your eyes If you dare to look at them. And the dumb wistfulness blinds Vanquishing your mind again. I run from anxiety, Nothing but lies I can find, Just my dreams are coming true. There is only dust behind. And the wind Ruthlessly tears Tight chains Of earthly fetters Leaving the ragged Hope wings, Destiny And God’s sadness... Once the perfidious treacly lie Tries to beckon you with fondness. In this world shadows are sly, Their silent warsare flawless. The heart and vessels with blood freeze, Filled up with hatred and vengeance. But these are just evil dreams, The treacherous nobles’ intentions. The shadows will close your eyes If you dare to look at them. And the dumb wistfulness blinds Vanquishing your mind again. I run from anxiety, Nothing but lies I can find, Just my dreams are coming true. There is only dust behind.

Ruins 06:14
At the end of such a gloomy day, The captivity of fire’s waning. The mist merges with foggy decay Over the abyss, heavily breathing. Along the exhausted land Ruins, like bloody wounds, smolder. The imperceptible flame Does burn the sky and unsolder. Menacingly at all times Old walls of fortresses stood. Again, they’re looking at us With a stone arrogant look. It seems like the rivers changed direction, Hopeless tears nerves even made of steel. To protect yourself against temptation, You must want to beat it and you will. Along the exhausted land Ruins, like bloody wounds, smolder. The imperceptible flame Does burn the sky and unsolder. Menacingly at all times Old walls of fortresses stood. Again, they’re looking at us With a stone arrogant look.

Oblivion 05:25
Time flows like sand in hourglass, Hiding the ruins of the past. Sunset, as stream of fire, Devours whole world to the last. When you just want to go so far Away, and all bridges burn out, And your dreams as well because In your veins runs boiling blood. It seems like my dream was so close, The heart was breaking in the chest. Ruins of the sandcastle arose, Only oblivion is ahead. When a wicked night creeps behind me, And I insatiably drink fire, Stars fall into my hands, And far away my thoughts fly. No one can change the destined life, It’s at the discretion of fate, Again, arguing with myself, I try at last to tear this thread. It seems like my dream was so close, The heart was breaking in the chest. Ruins of the sandcastle arose, Only oblivion is ahead. Time flows like sand in hourglass, Hiding the ruins of the past. Sunset, as stream of fire, Devours whole world to the last. It seems like my dream was so close, The heart was breaking in the chest. Ruins of the sandcastle arose, Only oblivion is ahead.

Misanthropy 05:32
My demon is sad, he is sleeping. Under the fallen leaves there is his throne. you tell me about there will be a storm. But I'm like a cold stone. My grail is filled up with blood. The sky burns and sheds pain All that I have been waiting for. All will be washed way by the rain. Wild pain tears my soul. I cannot listen to the silence. Black dreams again burn hopes. I am alone, no more chance. My grail is filled with blood. the sky burns and sheds pain All that I have, been The waiting for. All will be washed away by the rain. Burning with passion, a star falls from the sky. Years go away like the sand. Thousands of people pass by in the fog. Hypocrisy all around again. My grail is filled with blood. the sky burns and sheds pain All that I have, been The waiting for. All will be washed away by the rain.

The eyes are closed and no more blink. The body smells ¬¬disgusting stink. Hordes of flies’ buzz like in the hell, Time has stood still for the dead man. Like the buds burst, corpse spots have bloomed Foul worms are crawling in the wound. Cause one day you was led astray, Your fate is darkness and decay. The whole your life is quite inane, Everything ends both joy and pain. And the death is hard on your heels, It gives you eternal peace. The death is so blind, deaf, and cold That after it the pain doesn’t hurt. No one wins the battle with the death, Once it will come and stop your breath. And whole your life is quite inane, Everything ends both joy and pain. The death is hard on your heels, It gives you eternal peace.

Depth 04:24
The sky can heal its wounds so quickly here, Stars are the memory of the daylight. Here the breath of death behind is real, The sip of water, as if fire, smites. The depth is flaming with colorful lights, It beckons me to the mysterious world. There are lots of treasures underfoot, like dust. Oh, depth, let me go, I’m not yours! Here music is just the imagination, Only the game with the machine’s cold mind. And here I don’t feel the time duration, How much time really, I lost behind. Right on the heart, a hail of tears has fallen, My heart is cold as if a block of ice. Here I’ve found the door to the unknown And, having glanced there, I remained at once. The depth is flaming with colorful lights, It beckons me to the mysterious world. There are lots of treasures underfoot, like dust. Oh, depth, let me go, I’m not yours! Let me go!
