Taste, Taste my bitter dreams,
The emotions which spring from
A dark sea full of sins
And cold thoughts
Feel, Feel my aura now
Embracing your purity
It' s the call
To your innocence my friend
Breath, Breath my only wish
It is hiding form your eyes
Red it's color,
Like the one of passion
Burn, Burn my dead soul,
Blow the ashes in the wind
Let the night to spread
It's veils one more time
See, See the clouds of misery approach
Taking the shape of your fears
And the sun again is fading
Burning every faith I had for
For your beliefs, for your holy
Dreams of immortal happines
And the moon again is rising
Lighting my dark thougths of hate
Tears running from the idol,
Cannot satisfy the dead
"I gaze at the ceiling plasterwork
The meanders draw me in their dance
My happiness, I think, would be
A matter of height
Oh humble art that lacks pretension,
How much too late I admit your teaching!
Embossed dream, I shall come to you
In vertical fashion"
(Poetry by Kostas Kariotakis

Odes of Ecstasy è una band di death metal greca formatasi a novembre 1993 da Dimitris Bikos e Joseph Nikou. Considerati uno dei pionieri del genere in Grecia, hanno contribuito a plasmare il panorama musicale underground del paese con un sound crudo e potente, influenzato da band come Morbid Angel e Cannibal Corpse. Nel corso degli anni, la formazione ha subito diverse variazioni, ma Bikos è sempre rimasto alla guida della band. Tra i loro album più importanti si annovera "The Serpent's Embrace" (1997), considerato un classico del death metal europeo. Odes of Ecstasy sono noti per le performance live intense e coinvolgenti, che hanno contribuito a consolidare la loro reputazione come una delle band più rappresentative del genere in Grecia.
