All Along The Watchtowers

from Tohcoth by Aarni

/

about

After the Hendrix beginning, the song musically slows down mostly to a lagging funeral doom dirge with polyrhythmic parts and other such gimmicks. Lyrics in Enochian, the grammar and syntax of which have been carefully gleaned from Dr John Dee’s original texts and pronounciation guidelines, but reworked into new sentences by myself.
Some sound effects/instruments have been included to imitate the sounds reported by Dee and Kelley during the Enochian workings/manifestations. Interestingly enough some of these sounds are also mentioned in modern reports on poltergeist activity and other paranormal phenomena.

lyrics

Arise, slimy things made of dust; bring forth your knowledge to the Earth!
Voices of wonder, vomit out scorpions' heads.

Move and appear, descend; apply yourselves to us!
Come, appear to the terror of the Earth and to our wrath.
Arise, say I, and appear!

The rotten, arise!
Include us as receivers of the everlasting flowers of unspeakable pleasure.

The works of Man and his pomp, let them be defaced!
The horns of death, arise!
Whose wings are living lamps and seething diamonds.

The fay host
Doing what Christ did in Hell
The fay host

Come forth, Tahaoeloj, and bring down the Eastern Watchtower with wind
Come forth, Ohoooahaatan, and burn the Southern Watchtower with flame
Come forth, Thahebyobeeatan, and sink the Western Watchtower with water
Come forth, Thahaaotahe, and destroy the Northern Watchtower with earthquake

The fay host
Thunders
The fay host

He got telepathetic messages from the unicorn dolphin elder of Sirius B, who begged M.·.M.·. to reawaken the ancient Xothian aural technology tradition called 'aarni'.
Soon other dodgy entities joined him. Grok? ... more
