"INCUBUS" is carrying on the heavy style and touches very realistic themes

is an epic song of over 8 minutes and original phrases of an exorcism
process were used to give the song an extra authentic feel.

The title of the NEW Metalium will be “Nothing To
Undo – Chapter VI”
It’s an unusual “realistic” and “direct" title for a METALIUM album but
it fits the best to express the meaning of the lyrics.
The lyrical themes are about the deepest innerside of a human being….
Lies, betrayal, false friends… but also about honour, loyalty and blind
understanding.
In general the most direct and dramatic lyrics of Metalium so far and
more related to reality than the other chapters.
Once more the lyrics were written by Lars and Michael and we feel that
we are getting more and more closer with our style of writing, eventhough
both writers kept definitely their own style as always.
_______________________________________
While the recordings for CHPT VI are still going on, here is a list of
the songtitles :
The order of the songs might change later on.

Metalium is finishing up on the writings for Chpt VI , vocals are planned to be done in August. The theme of the new album will be very dark so Mr Ratz says and the release is planned for early 2007. More detailed news will follow ....
