rouse us, spur us, incite exodus, Lord ignite the train de vie!
via maris, via terra, via highway, train de vie!

“Trisagion” by Psalters
Not surprisingly, the Psalters’ music mostly deals with religion. Their album Divine Liturgy of the Wretched Exiles takes traditional psalters and transforms them into something archaic and nomadic and relevant to the materialism of modern life. Though a few of the reinterpreted psalters are intended to promote the merits of dumpster diving and living outside of materials – something that I find interesting – what really fascinates me about this and other world music bands is the ability to create an entirely different atmosphere. This song takes throaty, Arabic-esque vocals, Greek translation of a traditional psalter, and combines them with strong percussion elements to create a new psalter that transports me to an another time, another world. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever listened to.
Lyrics:
Agios O Theos,
Agios Eshiros,
Agios Athanatos,
Eleison Imas.Holy God,
Holy Mighty,
Holy Immortal,
Have mercy upon us.
