The place of transformation into gods!
At the beginning of the time
When there was no sun and moon
Gods gathered at Teotihuacan
To give the earth light
And change of day and night
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods
The violence began
God sacrificed himself
And was reborn as the Sun
Fifth century began in ancient
City of Teotihuacan
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods
Teotihuacan - City of The Gods

Temple of Quetzalcoatl
Helped The people
Of Teotihuacan
Maintain sacred
Connections with their world
The Feathered Serpent
Transmits the time
From the divine temple
The feathered Serpent is the God of air
The feathered Serpent is the god of the evening star
The feathered Serpent is the God of rain
The Feathered Serpent is the God of creation
He preached
Love and peace
Led a rather
Ascetic life
He abolished
Human sacrifices
The creator of time and calendar!
The feathered Serpent is the God of air
The feathered Serpent is the god of the evening star
The feathered Serpent is the God of rain
The Feathered Serpent is the God of creation

The Northern Underworld

Land of the dead
Cold and darkness
When a man dies
Night Traveler gives
To him magical powers
Journey takes four days
Soul must be tested
Before getting to
Miktlan - The Northern Underworld
Mictlan - Place of Despair
Mictlan - Nine Levels
Mictlan - Repose of Souls
Miktlan - The Northern Underworld
Mictlan - Place of Despair
Mictlan - Nine Levels
Mictlan - Repose of Souls
Cross the deep river
Where dogs were buried
With their dead masters
Cross between two mountains
Pass wild beasts
Devouring human hearts
Reach this last level
Where soul can rest in peace
Miktlan - The Northern Underworld
Mictlan - Place of Despair
Mictlan - Nine Levels
Mictlan - Repose of Souls
Miktlan - The Northern Underworld
Mictlan - Place of Despair
Mictlan - Nine Levels
Mictlan - Repose of Souls
The Northern Underworld
Souls would return to earth
After four years
They could become butterflies
And sacrifices would cease

Of west side

In the evening Venus
the harbinger of the sunset
In the night's journey
Beneath the earth
The energy of the death
Night traveler
Life cycle of the immortal Sun!
The process of transition from death to life
In an endless cycle of energy
Journey to the afterlife of Mictlan
The balance by which the world of the Fifth Sun
The twin brothers represent creative forces
Ordering energy and resisting chaos
The harbinger of the Sun
Sacrifices the gods
The harbinger of the Sun
Divine bloods
The harbinger of the Sun
Fire of rebirth
The harbinger of the Sun
Meets the dead and leads them to birth
The process of transition from death to life
In an endless cycle of energy
Journey to the afterlife of Mictlan
The balance by which the world of the Fifth Sun
The twin brothers represent creative forces
Ordering energy and resisting chaos
The harbinger of the Sun
Sacrifices the gods
The harbinger of the Sun
Divine bloods
The harbinger of the Sun
Fire of rebirth
The harbinger of the Sun
Meets the dead and leads them to birth
The harbinger of the Sun
En Venus nocturno al sol acompaña
Presagio del atardecer
Camino de la noche bajo tierra
En mundo de los muertos
El peregrino de la noche
Ayudará a superar la muerte
El ciclo energético el creará
La ronda de vida y muerte
Continuará...

I prayed
On the altar
Of my future son
who was destined
To be a great god
I had to swallow
A green stone to conceive
Chimalma - Goddess of fertility
Chimalma - Mother of Nations
Chimalma - Goddess of life and death
Chimalma - Mother of Quetzalcoatl
Chimalma - Goddess of fertility
Chimalma - Mother of Nations
Chimalma - Goddess of life and death
Chimalma - Mother of Feathered Serpent
After spending
The night
With Mixcoatl
By eating
A stone beforehand
I was able
To give birth
To the Feathered Serpent
Chimalma - Goddess of fertility
Chimalma - Mother of Nations
Chimalma - Goddess of life and death
Chimalma - Mother of Quetzalcoatl
Chimalma - Goddess of fertility
Chimalma - Mother of Nations
Chimalma - Goddess of life and death
Chimalma - Mother of Feathered Serpent
Chimalma! Chimalma! Chimalma!

Divine Comedy: Inferno
by Bestial Invasion
supported by 9 fans who also own “The Legacy of the Aztecs”
I only just discovered this band, since technical thrash isn't even on my radar as a style I like. But then, most TT bands don't sport first rate Dickinsonesque vocals. I dare say most also lack this kind of dynamic, varied songwriting. A hugely enjoyable album. I wish this band all the best in the face of the literal bestial invasion their nation is enduring. Send them to hell.
