Morbid Angel - Invocation Of The Continual One Lyrics






Sacred night on the Eve of May
We gather before the stars
Taste the Hunger of the Fire
Vastness of the Continuum
Heretics of a way unseen
Celebrate the Greatest of Means
Beelzebub, Lord of the Flies
By Your Hand the Zamanu dies

Drink, drink the Blood of the Ancients
Me-Zu Me Pa-Ku-Ku-De-Hul

Star encircled with the Power-Names
We speak in the Broken Lines
Leviathan will open the Gate
To the Great Abyssous Planes
Feel the icing winds of the Ab-Zu
Sea below all seas
Leviathan, Serpent of Truth
Share with us Most Perfect Way

Drink, drink the Blood of the Ancients
Me-Zu Me Pa-Ku-Ku-De-Hul

Call to the Earth, fortify our will
Come Air Spirits, be our eyes this night
Primal Flames are warmth to our souls
Waters of Life, Great Blessings You pour

Calling on Leviathan
Open the gate
Link us with the Wonder of the Abyss Planes so great
Lord of the rolling thunder
Celebrate with us this night
Rip away the veil
Hear our praise

Your Slumber is our Paradise
You smite our enemies down
For we, the few enlightened
Through Your Will we break our bonds
Lord Who shatters paradigms
From the rubble the New shall rise
Your Way presents death for them
The ME-GAL-GAL do we praise

Come Centaur
Those Who Prance to the Hymns of Truth
Come join us
Come Leviathan
Make passage of the Entrance we've
Prepared for You this night

Bil-At Kir-Zal Za-A-Kam Ki-Aga-Du
Kas-Du Da-Ra-Es Mu Ga Im-Mi-In
Nin-Ana-Si-Anna Ga Sa-Ga-Ar
Za-A-Kam Ne-Su-Ub-Du Ne-En-Mu Ga Sa-Ga-Ar

Morbid Angel Invocation Of The Continual One Comments
  1. W.... ....

    The riff at 0:36 is too badass for this world.

  2. K.... D....

    If only Formulas and Gateways had Covenant level of production quality, songs like this are some of the best stuff MA has done by far.

  3. M.... D....

    Hail satan

  4. B.... H....

    I really dont know why, but it has a mercyful fates satans fall vibe to me

  5. T.... T....

    Just got done with Choosing Death by Albert Mudrian -- very interesting read! -- and he reported that just before they recorded this album, Trey was actually reading stuff like Tony Robbins as a way to reinvent his thinking. KInda outrageous if you ask me!

  6. o.... p....

    The fiery beings are the most deadly

  7. o.... p....

    Unfortunately they don’t play like this anymore or believe like this

  8. U.... R....

    Best of M.A.!!!!!!

  9. G.... C....

    "Those who prance to the hymns of truth, Come join us..."

  10. D.... K....

    Skrātta du föllora du

  11. M.... D....

    One of the best Metal Tracks Of all time... Superb!

  12. X.... B....

    Majestic intro

  13. p.... ....

    trey the "malmsteen" of death metal

  14. H.... M....

    Seriously, anyone who thinks Sound Of Perseverance is better is a fucking idiot. At the very least, this is a better closing track than their autistic cover of Painkiller.

    H.... M....

    HEELSTEVEN MAGGLE my favourite album in 98 is still diabolical conquest

    H.... M....

    HEELSTEVEN MAGGLE Obscura coming at a close second

    H.... M....

    Good picks.

    H.... M....

    it is simply a question of taste, because music is related to the taste of a person. Who thinks music is a competition between bands and artists...well, is a fucking idiot! Most bands just simply want to share their works, feelings and messages, like Chuck Shuldiner, and of course, Trey, but they are completely different composers. You talk shit, man

  15. S.... ....

    Which Vinyl Sounds best?

    S.... ....

    The one released last year is really good. Full Dynamic Range.

  16. P.... M....

    METAL the way metal should be.....😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

  17. c.... v....

    Oddly melodic?

  18. M.... I....

    Morbids Best Period

  19. E.... W....

    6:43 SUCK MY COCK!

  20. h.... ....

    Best epic death metal song! Love it

  21. M.... I....

    This is f n awesome

  22. M.... H....

    The solo of the end, the best solo of MA ever?

  23. I.... o....

    people have given me money to this song, pure magic.

  24. C.... L....

    5:24 Best musik ever

  25. J.... P....

    This song is so atmospheric, the leads, the riffing, vocals and drumming
    It's psychedelic in a very interesting way, certainly a unique and one off piece

  26. A.... D....

    Start of riff is way similar like Procreation, but fucking great song!

  27. J.... K....

    I swear 7:14 is one of my favourite riffs in metal....so simple but damn it hits the spot.

  28. T.... T....

    Man, what a wicked riff. Morbid Angel is an acquired taste, but one of a kind.

  29. p.... 2....

    Introduction riff !!! My ears are cumming

  30. E.... t....

    treys shredding= evil van halen

  31. A.... P....

    8:28 Possibly the greatest guitar solo of all time

    A.... P....

    It's like if someone converted a wild fire into musical form.

    A.... P....

    One of my fav death metal song , epic song, kind of iron maiden!

    A.... P....

    funny that you can't even find a cover-take on this solo on the whole YouTube in 2020

  32. R.... G....

    'Peter was crucified at Rome with his head downwards, as he himself had
    desired to suffer."[38] The Cross of St. Peter inverts
    the Latin cross based on this refusal, and his claim of being unworthy to
    die the same way as his Saviour.[105]'  Jesus Christ was
    denied, condemned crucified for preaching peace, forgiveness & compassion
    & ran w/ & preached to the downtrodden of society. He fulfilled Old
    Testament prophecy & after the Romans crucified
    Jesus, he was anointed and buried in a new tomb by Joseph of Arimathea but God
    raised him from the dead and he appeared to witnesses before he ascended
    into heaven, to sit at the right hand of Father.

    John 14:6 Jesus
    answered, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father
    except through Me.

    Exodus 20:3 Commandment
    1-You shall have no other Gods but me.

  33. g.... 8....

    love this song

  34. A.... /....

    Hail to Morbid Angel from Russia. Listening them since 1993!

  35. D.... Q....

    Prog Death Metal song ;)

    D.... Q....

    Opeth, eat your heart out.

  36. E.... A....

    Tucker's vocals is just amazing

    E.... A....

    This is Trey Azagthoth on vocals for this track

  37. K.... K....

    YES!!! so much tone!

    K.... K....

    Loved this since 8th grade!!

  38. Z.... ....

    I don't understand how people never appreciated this record enough, same with Gateways To Annihilation. I even prefer Formulas to Domination. Domination is a powerful classic, but there is a sense of almost spirituality that can be heard in Formulas Fatal To The Flesh that is not present in previous records, or even Heretic and the overrated Kingdoms Disdained which is only getting so much love because it was coming back from Illud Divinum Insanus.

    Best offering from Morbid Angel in my book.

    Z.... ....

    Agreed. I can't help but feel that anyone who puts Domination above this album are biased because it's the classic lineup. But Tucker's vocals on Formulas are far better than Vincent's on Domination and the album is more interesting, more aggressive, more undergound, more suitably produced (back to the murky, raw, organic sound of Blessed and Covenant). The problem is that some people are reluctant to accept anything other than the classic line up, since those albums are so beloved, so it gets overlooked.

    But I guarantee if this album was released under another bandname it'd seen as a classic in death metal.

    Z.... ....

    Not true, Covenant had the same allure of mysticism in it as well and did it better, but Invocation of the Continual One is one of their best tracks ever, especially as far as composition goes.

    Z.... ....

    I think the media dictate what is considered classic and they always go by sales.

    So a casual fan will go to those mentioned album's, only fans of the band who are in for the long haul would look into this, gateways and Heritic

  39. J.... L....

    Sacred nigth on the eve of mya we gather before the stars taste the hunger blpods the fire vastness of the comtonunm long life.to black death metal

  40. A.... ....

    one of the best MA songs, happy Tucker is back..he is beast

  41. E.... v....

    I can't help but, at 02:58, imagine Glen Benton after loosing a bet having to wear a Santa Claus suit and ringing that bell.

    E.... v....

    lmao him as Santa!.. "GET OFF MY LAP!!" in his cackled voice.

  42. E.... S....

    2018!!!!!!!!!!!!

  43. j.... d....

    7:00 moster riff genius guitar solo Master

  44. o.... l....

    Love this.song, just epic. Often have a nap listening this! Von unnausspre.... from nile is awsome too..

  45. A.... ....

    this is hell

  46. J.... M....

    I THINK STEVE TUCKER YEARS WERE THE BEST FOR MORBID ANGEL SO GLAD HE IS BACK .GATEWAYS TO ANNHILATION.

    J.... M....

    I really wished Tucker would had been the singer for the Domination album, however until that album Vincent had been unbeatable.

  47. M.... C....

    Love the wild time signature. Metal needs more of that.

  48. H.... D....

    This song is weirdly Thrashy. In a very, very good way.

  49. t.... p....

    Can't beat that solo absolute fav morbid song

  50. J.... P....

    All is fucking awesome, the terrorific voice, the catchy guitars, the bass and the drums. Ah, and that cover.

  51. t.... p....

  52. T.... ....

    I'm not feeling most post-Covenant Morbid Angel, but this album is an exception

  53. E.... T....

    S.... ....

  56. 7.... ....

    Sometimes the Absu gets a bad Rap🤔

  57. 2.... a....

  59. S.... f....

  60. A.... B....

    A.... R....

    @B0gdaN Chuck and Trey are both geniuses, just in a different way

    A.... R....

    @Justin Haywood oh shut up you fan boy.

    A.... R....

    @Justin Haywood Chuck is good, I love Chuck and Death but MA and Trey are the fucking best ¡¡

    A.... R....

    @B0gdaNno way, very diferent styles

    A.... R....

    ​@Justin Haywood stop the ass kissing

  65. A.... A....

    This was originally titled Morbid Angel, back when Mike was on drums.

    A.... A....

    Where did You get this information?

    A.... A....

    @Łukasz Klat
    You can google it.

    A.... A....

    Inm the liner notes it says it was based on a song written in 1984. There are bootlegs of early shows and demos where you can hear the song Morbid Angel. Mike Browning handled both drums and vocals. A lot of the older fans prefer Browning's drumming to Sandoval's blast beats.

    A.... A....

    @Azazel AcheronFor the good, he is no more with MA, I hated his typewriter vocals, ugh. and I don't agree with this statement to be true: "A lot of the older fans prefer Browning's drumming to Sandoval's blast beats."

  66. G.... O....

    Best song this album

    G.... O....

    They got alot

  67. m.... ....

    This should be played at world shattering volume. It sounds too complex to hear with weak volume.

  68. S.... I....

    this is what happens when death metals cuts down on blast beats in drumming, a master peice!

    S.... I....

    Samuel Ivany that this is a great song has nothing to do with blast beats. Fear of napalm is a great song and it uses blast beats.

    S.... I....

    And to give the drummer a bit of a rest -- can't imagine how exhausting doing constant blast beats is!

  69. A.... G....

    3:24min.!!! Amazing!!!

  70. A.... ....

    masterpiece!

  71. I.... ....

    The intro reminds me immortal rites o.O

    I.... ....

    Acid trip Immortal Rites

  72. W.... C....

    Walpurgisnight waaahahaaaaaaaaaa !!

    W.... C....

    We gather before the stars ^^

    The intro on Banjolin....

  75. O.... H....

    This ripping my face off

  76. A.... ....

    Thamks for this one...one of the best MA song

  77. t.... ....

    The ending solo to this track is my all time favorite. Total fucking badassery

    t.... ....

    Incredible, isn't it. Shared experience!

  78. r.... a....

    MASTERPIECE!!! for the eternity...

  79. M.... C....

    A mio parere la migliore canzone dei morbid angel

    M.... C....

    Non so se la migliore ma nella top 5 di sicuro.

  80. t.... f....

    This Song is really Trey! An Opera between Abominations, Altars and Blessed. I love this Track (?), no, MUSIC!

  81. V.... ....

    Using a language that's over 5,000 years old, in your song. That's art.

    V.... ....

    Both of those are dumb, but these riffs are art.

    V.... ....

    Is that an offer?

    V.... ....

    The internet does it again^

    V.... ....

    Kyle Fox Vocal Cover METAL AS FUCK

  82. R.... A....

    que satanas devore su sangre e tu carne

    R.... A....

    +Rodrigo Antônio Fortuna que delicia cara

  83. J.... A....

    Are they so blind and narrow minded that they cannot compromise? It is only writing and they leave it for something awful and untrue.

  84. J.... A....

    This shit is for real. IF it freaks me out imagine the pain/. It being psychic self defense is all a okay under the eyes of God' a seven year old boy's life s at stake who loves you so real pure and true The latch has now been lifted on an ever open door and peering through i see things as i never have before.

  85. S.... H....

    For me, this is one of the best metal tracks of all time, by any band. Majestic, Heavy, Otherworldly, Elegant, Intense...

    S.... H....

    Scott H Jackson
    Why don't you??? Pull the plug???

    S.... H....

    Sounds like you need some
    "SPIRITUAL HEALING!!!"

    S.... H....

    See you South of Heaven.

    S.... H....

    Frank Burdo huh?

    S.... H....

    My favorite death metal song, a masterpiece

  86. V.... K....

    More tonal than some of their other work.

  87. o.... 2....

    K.... ....

    +Growling Fetus the best part !!

  89. G.... H....

    one of their best song with dominate

  90. J.... D....

    This is simply the best Death Metal song ever written...

  91. A.... ....

    the 5:25 riff, is the whole song for me

  92. S.... ....

    This song is so underrated.  The opening riff is awesome as fuck.  

    S.... ....

    Not really, you went right back to boring with that one.

    S.... ....

    You seem like you might be rather hard to please.

    S.... ....

    @***** FINALLY some attention !!!!!!!! Thnx Claire :)

    S.... ....

    No, I was dumb enough to buy a XBOX ONE and have regretted it since that day. Sometimes when I get up in the morning, I stare at that POS machine listlessly and hurl curses and epithets at it.

    I HATE YOUR FACE SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!

    Sometimes, I even raise my hand and try to make it flinch but to no avail. Seriously, it is hands down the worst gaming console since Dreamcast. its that bad.

  93. D.... F....

    This is one of those songs that just sticks with you forever. From the day I bought this album in '99 until this day I truly believe this is one of the best metal songs ever written. Come centaurrrrr.....

  94. a.... R....

    demonic sounds

  95. P.... ....

    Ever since I've listened to the album for the first time 6-7 years ago in a store and found in a booklet lyrics to the song with the magic(k)al sentence "written in 1984" I was blown away by the sheer and unstoppable genius of this composition. And it holds me in its grip to this day.

    P.... ....

    mustaine75 The music was written back then. But the song was called Morbid Angel. Then it was called invocation of the lord of foulness. But Trey decided that name was too negative and therefore it was finally named invocation of the continual one.

    P.... ....

    why trey shouldnt be held back by david

  96. G.... B....

    this might be one of my favorite metal songs ever
