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.

Phantom Of Mortem Tales Lyrics

Old Man's Child

A burning lust for pleasure less desire
A needless urge to kill
Fearful thoughts, a strength we admire
With hate that their minds are fulfilled
Like tyrants, living life in wrath
Like wizards, vanishing into the dark:
As black divine gods
Born under crimson rain
Taking lives in seductive ways
Putrefy the human skin
Feeding the demons within
Nailed to the heavenly cross
You will die with the taste of dust
Praise your demonic saviour
Erase your memories of god
Like wolves, howling to the night
Like beasts, living beyond the light:
As black divine gods
