*"Well, generally 'Lupus Dei' is focussed on parables taken out of the bible and set in context to our passion for metal. Finally it had turned out being a real concept album with the wolf himself as the protagonist. In the Introduction to the album he looses faith in good and descends to the evil. He doesn't believe in anything but blood anymore ("In blood we trust") – but during the album he realizes the light of god step by step and finally in the title track he experiences god."Track listing
