Damien Filth - The Emperor of Ashes (Official Audio) | Sanguis Aeterna III: The Scarlet Empire

"The Emperor of Ashes" is the explosive opening chapter of Sanguis Aeterna III. Rising from the ashes of the century’s grave and bound by the Crimson Oath, Damien Filth returns to reclaim his dark throne. Blending relentless Symphonic Black Metal with haunting Gothic Metal orchestration, this track marks the dawn of a new scarlet empire. 🎵 Song Lyrics The oath was spoken, the seal was made, I stand triumphant in the twilight shade! Upon the ruins of the mortal world, My crimson banner is at last unfurled! No longer searching in the endless night, I’m the eclipse that swallows up the light! Bow your heads! Bend your knees! I am the cure to your divine disease! The Emperor of Ashes! The king of the void! Rebuilding the throne that the angels destroyed! Through Sanguis Aeterna, the empire shall stand, With the blood of the cosmos held tight in my hand! No gods above us! No masters below! Where Damien treads, only shadows will grow! My bride of darkness is beside my side, Across the sea of slaughter we shall ride! A million souls are screaming in the wind, Absolving every act we’ve ever sinned! The century’s grave is empty and cold, The greatest story ever written is told! The Emperor of Ashes! The king of the void! Rebuilding the throne that the angels destroyed! Through Sanguis Aeterna, the empire shall stand, With the blood of the cosmos held tight in my hand! The oath is fulfilled. The empire begins. Welcome to my eternal kingdom. 💳 Credits Title: The Emperor of Ashes Album: Sanguis Aeterna III: The Scarlet Empire Lyrics & Music Concept: Damien Filth Genre: Symphonic Black Metal / Gothic Metal 🏷️ Tags & Hashtags Hashtags: #DamienFilth #SanguisAeterna #SymphonicBlackMetal #GothicMetal #ExtremeMetal #BlackMetal #NewMetal2026 🔒 Copyright Notice © 2026 Damien Filth.
