BABYLON
9:44
Lyrics by: Pearl Munar, Shekaina Gabitanan & Rams
Aquino
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
OREMUZ-Babylon(Live/Rehearsal)
Interpretation:
A scenario where every person faces their own trials in life…where confusion for what we want, what we need and who we really are blocks our way.
HADES
6:13
Lyrics by: Ronell Lanuza & Rams Aquino
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
OREMUZ-Hades(Live)
Interpretation:
The first composition of Rams. A warning on future events. Events that we might regret…where our present actions, like the things we say, how we act, and how we think will someday haunt us.
MELODY OF SANCTIMONY
5:44
Lyrics by: Ronell Lanuza & Rams Aquino
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
Interpretation:
Hypocrites are the main highlight of this song. It tells of the other face of the Church. The reality, on how it has been deceiving us for the longest time. The reality that people still follow and continue to love the Church without question…With eyes, heart and mind shut, we have let the Church decide our faith.
COLD AND DARK
7:00
Lyrics by: Ronell Lanuza & Rams Aquino
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
OREMUZ-Cold and Dark(Live)
Interpretation:
This is a summoning of people with the same heart, belief and passion as ours. We are welcoming you to be part of us. Together, my friend, we will continue to fight for our right to know the truth.
ANGELS DO WEEP
6:00
Lyrics by: Kris Katigbak, Rams Aquino & Joseph Villiones
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
OREMUZ-Angels Do Weep(Live)
Interpretation:
Watch out for the Second EP Release of OREMUZ, this is the newest song composed.An Inspiration based from a symbolic fantasy that Angels cry in Heaven and the rain drops are their tears. From the fantasy, converting it to reality, the song shows how the Christianity today suffer, taking everything to them, helpless, depressed and they are prisoners of beliefs and traditions that are all lies made by the modern organized religion.
PHANTOM'S PLAY
5:44
Lyrics by: Ronell Lanuza
Music Arrangements: Oremuz
OREMUZ-Phantom's Play(Live/Rehearsal)
Interpretation:
Watch out for the Second EP Release of OREMUZ, this is one of the oldest song composed after Melody of Sanctimony.This song is dedicated for all artists, the song shows how the Artists today suffer, Some Record labels blocked their way, takes advantage, and they are victims of Self-Centered intention for Business and Money...

O R E M U Z
Oremuz is an all Filipino band from Manila Philippines. It was founded in 2004 by guitarist Rams Aquino,then vocalist Ronell Lanuza and Debi Mendez. Their music is variously described as gothic metal, as well as symphonic metal in some media, although in an interview, Rams said they generally fell into a gothic rock genre.The band became prominent in the underground scene due to their constant gigs all over Manila. It would however take until 2007, when they became known by the general public, with them winning 2nd Place at the World Battle of the Bands Philippines Division held at Amoranto Theatre. Sincethen they have relaesed a demo cd and have played at events such as PULP Summer Slam 2008 also held at Amoranto Stadium.

For the month of October 2009, any online order over $20 will receive a "signed" broken or used drum stick from Davey Calabrese. All year long, Davey has been collecting these drum sticks and saving them just for you. Why does he have so my broken drum sticks? Could it be a lack of self control behind the drums? A mental disorder that causes him to destroy? Only his therapist knows for sure!
