Tenebrae was a Finnish Doom/Death Metal band formed in Helsinki, 1991. They recorded their first two demos "Salvation" and "This Divine Flesh of Ours" in 1992. In 1994 they released their first EP "Sick Spinning Wheel" through MMI label. At the same year they also recoded a promo tape "Trancequake" for Spinefarm. Their first full-length "Dysanchelium" later in the year 1994, through Finnish Spinefarm records. The recording and the mixing of "Dysanchelium" had, however, already been done between October 1992 and March 1993 in Purgatory Studios. Their next album "Hypnotech" was released in 1996 through Shiver Records. The album contained songs from their previous demos and the EP "Sick Spinning Wheel". After their second full-length, the band split-up. Members of Tenebrae have since carried on with other seperate band projects such as Twilight Ophera, Soulgrind, Lullacry etc. Also Jussi Latvala ( Roope's brother ) played in Tenebrae during Hypnotech- era
This is from their first full-length "Dysanchelium" of 1994.
Lyrics :
(J. Heikkinen & H. Ojanperä / J. Heikkinen / Tenebrae)
You brought my body into the endless dance
To see myself in the painful trance
Oh mother of pain, is this the day
To see me cry, to see me pray
I look at my veins strangle my blood
My brain melt in front of my eyes
Touching my state of mind
I feel this is for real
Body and nails, pain is a frame
Resistance suffocated, the quest is completed
Hallucinations or solution for leprosy of my dreams
Abominations or seduction for illness of my liquid seeds
Am I me or who I am
Is this my blood I bleed
Is this my life ending
Or is this just my dream
Bloodsucking Freak
This is mindstorm
