Chile isn't a popular country for its metal bands. but from the middle of nowhere Soterion comes straight forward,
bringing you some atmospheric black metal, it turns a little old school in some parts, this band mixes the rawness of old school, with the brilliant melodies of
the atmospheric black metal.
This self-released demo called: "Cult of Lies" contains 5 songs clocking in at 20:00 minutes. The overall sound is similar to Lord Belial.
The demo start off with a traditional and common seen intro, Nordic winds blowing to the north, then some keyboards, well it a good and short intro to this brutality to come,
War of Rising Darkness is where the grimness starts the guitar works are
impressionist, the keys creates a very dark atmospheric sound. Cult of Lies starts in a fast way, faster than the previews songs the vocals remains solid though. Hypocrisy (Inner God) is so far my favorite! you can see the
Scandinavian and Nordic influences running through this song, the drums works are very outstanding in this one. The guitars remains as sharp as knives.
The ending song To Reign Immortal is slower than the others, but it has its own way to impress you, though this is a very sick way to end this demo.
Although this is CD gets no label support the production is quite average. The lyrics are dark and extreme and show you how destruction can comes through mankind. all the lyrics are in English for your convenience. If you want to acquire this demo, you can contact the band at:

War Of Rising Darkness |
Battles in the blackest age, the
fog of war
Infernal legions are hating
Pleasure of agony blinds our eyes
Fooled by the cursed spells inside
Rain of blood burns, bleeding moon
All this power, why can't you see
Returning to the Sodom times, all filth of man
Perverse rites of hate in our shameless ways
All our acts of life are wasted
damned is the one who takes us
Ancestor's roots of occultism still awake
the sin of the past now for me
it goes from one generation to another
but with a faster march of hell
day of his rage will be too late
no place to hide our deceived souls
searching for death, not finding it´
so a cruel beginning of our death
hell will show the meaning of our truth, Lies!
Stupid philosophies and each religion,
Lies!!!!!!!!
Revelations of a supreme way for the spirits
after it's pain comes the victory
influence of lie becomes week for our agonizing
our declaration of war begins!
drink the blood from the one who saved you
eat from his flesh to become eternal
down on our knees we are here to praise you
your sacrifice has set me free

Cult Of Lies |
|
Damned cult of ignorance
Dominates the stupid minds
the occult curse of sin
revealed by your sick and unclear image of a god
A fool's consequence
only waits for some others to fall
spirits of ambition
contradiction in your concepts of truth
Creation in our empty minds
the lords of death and life
holy day and filthy night
all is just a waste of time
Creation in our empty minds
the lords of death and life
come on we can destroy them
open your eyes
Adoration of idols and saints
powerless at this mighty side
false christ in virgin's hands
your ideology decays

Hipocrisy (The Inner god) |
|
Missing horizons of the spirit
we lost the notion of truth
eyes just open for things below
it's too impossible to look above
pleasure the master of our might
black end awaits this wise flight
why to end this consume of power
it converts us in gods
fortunately a superior side inside
we've been victim of a lie
condemnation near the very beginning
treason was easy against this feeble flesh
temple of imperfection and abhorrence
hunger for sin to increase our knowledge
so that we become higher than stars of night
powerful as the moon, what majestic side
entire universe is domine of my hands
even god follows my willness
my existence is god
upcoming questions don't import
because I still rise
Suddenly the power of nature took this body underground
between flames I realized it was just a little mind
a gift from almighty, all for me
and I laugh about it
so I have to accept in silence the choice for my sky

To Reign Immortal |
|
sacrifice of blood with all sin
old prophesies about might
terror and rage will torment the earth
existence is in His hands
repentance as our only chance
ignoring all the mortal flesh
out of our minds there is a truth
never to be changed
tears from our eyes
restless are our cries
unable to change your mind
the rage of almighty will come
hear with the spirit and march to victory
