For their new video release, Black Metallers ZIFIR have chosen the track “Empire of Worms”, from their latest album “Demoniac Ethics”, which was released on Duplicate Records in January of this year. It is, according to the band, a track that:
Represents the anti religious and nihilistic perspective of ZİFİR. The song itself is a sinister reminder of death, especially for those who are in search of a better “afterlife” by praying behind the walls. The state of having worms swarming inside, rather than the peaceful endless rest at any form. The lyrics are self explanatory…
“Beneath the ground filled with bones
The heaven is bare and empty
Dig up the graves
You will see the empire of worms
Nothingness of the past
Nourished the God in them”

Since the band was first formed by Onur Önok and O.S. back in 2006, ZIFIR has been clear and uncompromising in its direction and vision. As exemplified by their lyrics, it is a vision that embodies some of the basic tenets of the Black Metal genre – philosophy, anti-religion and nihilism.
Aside from Önok on vocals, the band’s lineup today includes Nursuz on Drums and Ilgar on Bass. More information about ZIFIR, which in Turkish means “Tar”, can be found on the band’s Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/zifirofficial/
