About the EP itself I must say... the songs were fine (?) but the lyrics were something else (this is related with Christianity). My musical mood at that time was very frantic, unpolished and sometimes repetitive.
At that time I was still into Christianity (but with serious doubts), my inspirations at that time were, for instance, Mortification, Vengeance Rising, Believer, and the like. Even though they put out some serious albums back in the day (Believer's "Dimensions" is a total technical holocaust), today I don't share their "worldview" at all. Anyway, I was very influenced back then.
About the EP itself, sometimes I try to listen to it, but I can't. I just can't. Not because of the music/sound of it (even though it sounds very raw and unpolished) but because of the lyrics. They were wrote in Spanish and it dealt with the superiority of GAWD and how everybody must tremble before his holy douchebagness.
Sometimes I think how incredible the human being is, how someone can turn 180 degrees from the most essential aspects of his life. I born in Christianity, I was indoctrinated everyday since then, mixing nonsense with feelings everywhere. It was atrocious. That's why even though it's part of someone process or "spiritual journey", I can't help but feeling awkward about this EP everytime I try to listen to it.
Anyway, after released, I began the search for musicians (at that time I wanted Overlord to be a full-member band). That search took place on the internet in many different forums and then finally two guys from a band called "Mashet" responded to the call and contacted me in order to play together and smash some asses, destroy the cosmos... you know... Thrash Business. Unfortunately, after a few rehearsals and never finding "a proper drummer", Overlord as a full member band concept went to shit.
After that, I felt somehow miserable because I felt that as a failure. But in March of 2011 after entering University for the first time, I decided to fuck on everybody and do all the shit by my goddamn own. That's when the "Tiempos Antares" sessions began. But that's another story.
This fucking EP, even though it appears on Overlord's official discography, it doesn't represents me neither lyrically nor conceptually. At all.
Here're some pictures from that time:

That's it. Flatuleitor out.
