The Lamp of Thoth were an infamous esoteric coven who operated out of Keighley back in the Victorian age.( See Marie Campbell's great books 'Curious Tales of Old West Yorkshire' and 'The Strange World of the Brontes').
Our mission as a band is to capture that black magical atmosphere whilst mingling it with a Victorian Christian sensibility, to produce a front of oppressive Christian virtues which can barely conceal the raging lusts which boil beneath. We want to repress, enslave and then devour (in stereo, where ever possible) in the spirit of the Old Ones which the Victorian age eventually produced through their sceintific atheism. We want to doom the doomiest doom that doom can doom!
Yay! So you found the unholy scriptures made of gothic and utterly shocking words!
I hope you enjoy the reading!
As a matter of fact the french version has been translated, but also adapted quite a bit by the french madman and writer named Antonin Artaud. He accentuated the magical side of the book. But I guess that both versions are pretty much alike.
I just read a cool interview done with you here at the time of the release of your album, and indeed it's cool to see that "the monk" in a way fits with your interest for the victorian times and litterature. We couldn't find a better person to collaborate on our songs! haha!!
