Old Man’s Child was brought to life in Norway back in 1993. But things started to happen a couple of years earlier, back in 1989 to be precise. In that year Galder and Tjodalv started a band that mainly played covers of Metallica and Slayer. Under the name Requiem they released a self titled demo in 1993, which was only printed in 50 copies. The demo was very influenced by the death metal scene that flourished at that moment.

Obscure Divine Manifestation Lyrics

Old Man's Child

So I dive into the universe, I fly among the stars
Creations of the worlds between our own and the obscure
Tangled in a world of light with darkness inside
The labyrinth of cosmos is not a path to life
Passing Saturn, closing on the moons of Jupiter
Europa shines in golden light, hiding it's secrets
Underneath the wall of ice evil rests alone
Waiting for the cosmic call to move the forces along
Europa's brother Io proudly standing tall
Innocent and beautiful his fate is in control
Jupiter is dark and grey, full of death and pain
The monolith has torn apart the beauty it once held
Alone I fly towards the centre, a black hole ahead
To join the others on his ride, which will never end
