    Lemuria (festival)

    The Lemuralia or Lemuria was a feast in the religion of ancient Rome during which the Romans performed rites to exorcise the malevolent and fearful ghosts of the dead from their homes. The unwholesome spectres of the restless dead, the lemures or larvae were propitiated with offerings of beans. On those days, the Vestals would prepare sacred mola salsa, a salted flour cake, from the first ears of wheat of the season.

    In the Julian calendar the three days of the feast were 9, 11, and 13 May. The origin myth of this ancient festival, according to Ovid, who derives Lemuria from a supposed Remuria was that it had been instituted by Romulus to appease the spirit of Remus (Ovid, Fasti, V.421ff; Porphyrius). Ovid notes that at this festival it was the custom to appease or expel the evil spirits by walking barefoot and throwing black beans over the shoulder at night. It was the head of the household who was responsible for getting up at midnight and walking around the house with bare feet throwing out black beans and repeating the incantation, "I send these; with these beans I redeem me and mine" (Haec ego mitto; his redimo meque meosque fabis.) nine times. The household would then clash bronze pots while repeating, "Ghosts of my fathers and ancestors, be gone!" nine times.

    Lemuria (Belgian band)

    Lemuria is a symphonic black metal band from Antwerp, Belgium formed in 1999. Lemuria has recently released "Chanson de la Croisade", a CD about the prosecution of the Cathars, members of a Christian religious movement that appeared in the Languedoc region of France and other parts of Europe in the 11th century and flourished in the 12th and 13th centuries.

    History

    Conceived in 1999, Lemuria recorded their first demo in April 2002 entitled "The Vault of the Witness". After winning competitions and supporting major metal acts, Tales, Ale & Fire was forged during 2004. The independent production enhanced the unique sound of this concept album and Lemuria delivered something unprecedented and unheard of within the Belgian metal scene. Held in the same vein as Finntroll, Ensiferum, Thyrfing, Bal Sagoth and even Rhapsody, the album demonstrated the huge progress made by the band and was embraced by metal heads and fans of other genres alike.

    This release brought fame and fans to the band whilst gigs across Flanders helped generate a substantial following, with Lemuria headlining many concerts and supporting more big names such as Korpiklaani. The album sold out quickly, outselling Aborted through Belgium’s leading underground distributor, and today is still highly sought-after.

    by: Lemuria

    You put your flower on the lips of my head
    I thrust myself between the breasts of your chest
    Swallowed by a whale in the sea
    And vomited up dry on the beach
    Today we never put on our clothes
    We tried to set a record, we came close
    All in front of a mirror above a desk
    We created origami with our flech
    Eyeball
    It may sound dirty, but it's cleaning curiosity
    This sex is ugly
    Kissing every cavity
    Every god damn thing you can list
    Shakespeare can't be abridged
