Nach über einer Dekade legen die Bay Area Tech Death Metaller AENIMUS eine Pause auf unbestimmte Zeit ein und gehaben sich wohl mit der Abschiedssingle `Phoenix Rise´Die Band dankt Fans, Freunden und Familie.

Hier das komplette Statement von Sänger Seth Stone:

„To my fans, friends and family… With over a decade of moments shared together and infinite memories that will live with me forever, I have made the difficult decision to put Aenimus on an indefinite hiatus. Thank you all, for the support and love over the years, in making many of my dreams come true.

Thank you to all the amazing musicians who performed and wrote these magical songs with me. Never, did I fathom I would perform and write music alongside some of the best and most humble musicians that I now consider family. I could not have accomplished any of this without a single one of you.

Thank you to Nuclear Blast Records, Continental Touring and everyone else within the music industry who guided Aenimus and gave us opportunities of a lifetime. With that, I give you all one last song, “Phoenix Rise” a farewell to celebrate the time we spent together and a song to inspire hope to whoever needs it.“

Lyrics:

Rise up
Rise from the ashes
Breathe life to the flame
Break the chains
Tear from the soil
Spread your wings
The Phoenix will rise

Weighted down
Rain falls around
Wake up the fire inside
Embers rage into blaze
Become eternal flame

The sun will rise
We’ll see another day
Shake off the ash
Fear betrayed

Into the well we bathe
Sol Invictus stops to hear me sing

I carry the weight of the world
As it crumbles around me
Pain and anxiety
They always will be
Lean into the fire
Feel the pain
The Phoenix will rise
Breathe into the fire
Then rise
The greatest victory begins in suffering

The sun will rise
We’ll see another day
Shake off the ash
Fear betrayed

Into the well we bathe
Sol Invictus stops to hear me sing

We rise
We’ll rise
The Phoenix will rise
