about

'Like the POTROCKER debut STONED ELITE UNDERGROUND I wanted to close HASHISHATAN with a title in (pseudo-)Latin. I came up with the words Sanguis Infernalis and most of the lyrics in late August 2021, rewrote the first verse in early October 2021 and changed some words in early January 2022. The lyrics compare the resin that hashish is produced from to blood from Hell and touch on the historical use of hashish, but otherwise are about nothing in particular. Although most of the riffs were written in September 2021, some of the music dates back to October 23, 2019. In November 2021 the up tempo first riff got changed to a slow floortom driven one. The chord progression for the verses was influenced by the song Pardosa Lugubris of the 2009 Gravvtakkhe album by SLAUGHTER TOWEN, a local necro black metal one-man band that I played guitar for when from 2010 until 2013 (the final years of its existence) some gigs were done. There's also a NECROPHAGIA inspired death metal vibe going on, while the riffs that ultimately make the song come to a halt remind me of something that could be in a TONER LOW song. Coincidentally SLAUGHTER TOWEN’s Gravvtakkhe album was partly inspired by TONER LOW as well.'

lyrics

Blood from the Netherworld
Born to burn
Summoned throughout history
Ancient eternal underground mysteries

Rooted in the Earth
Predestined from birth
Horizon ablaze
Distant arcane subterranean rays

Otherworldly desire
Sanguis Infernalis
Blood dripping fire
Sanguis Infernalis
