Praefatio: Invocatio Bellorum Aeternorum

By Cruciata Æterna · Symphonic Metal · From the album Cantus Exterminatus: Liturgia Mortis et Gloriae

The liturgy begins. "Praefatio: Invocatio Bellorum Aeternorum" serves as the solemn ritual before the slaughter. Featuring mournful brass fanfares and deep, monastic throat singing, this atmospheric intro invokes the blessing of the God-Emperor. It is the sound of a thousand ships breaking orbit, the calm before the storm of eternal war descends upon the heretic.
