about
The first full-length song from our upcoming album, Porta Coeli is inspired by Mark Twain’s “War Prayer”. It stares down the inexplicable duplicity of framing personal deities, faith and religion as justification for going to war. Christian iconography juxtaposed with the horrors of the conflicts waged in its name illustrate the massacres driven by faith and power. Daisy Cutter Pale Ale not only fueled this inaugural session, Daisy Cutter is the name of the weapon charged with clearing large plots of earth from growth and life.
Fittingly, SHADOW OF JUPITER has now recorded the tracks for PORTA COELI, its first album, by this anniversary. It’s off to mixing and mastering for its digital release this spring to be followed by its vinyl release as soon as the gods of grooved wax allow! Please do follow, share, enjoy and bask in the SHADOW OF JUPITER and their debut…
ALPHA/Daisy Cutter/OMEGA
PEACE BE WITH YOU
lyrics
I am the ALPHA, the BEGINNING, the FIRST...
The Womb of Dawn will bear a sun
Blinding light has split the void
Cells DIVIDE AND multiply…She knows.
Jesus Christ this is not a drill, bestow your favor clearly on our flock
If the holy spirit moves within you, Inflict everlasting grief for thee
Oh, kind and merciful Savior, Let their children wander roofless in rags
Bottoms of their feet split wide open, snow beneath them soaked with their blood
Assail their path and may their steps be heavy, in kind their throats be cracked and dry.
To us you giveth, yet they’re all forsaken. Beg for death to only be denied
Eternal beam of warmth and Light, Lay waste their homes with tides of fire
Blessed Lord who smiles upon us., smite their hopes and blight their lives.
Clear the rulers off their crumbling thrones.
Daisy Cutter lays them all to waste.
The hope, the power and the glory are yours, In Daisy Cutter’s holy name…Amen
The tomb we walk concedes we're done
Gaping black engulfs our stone
Cells mutate and eat their own... She knows
I am the OMEGA, the END, the LAST...

This is not just music. It is pure emotion. Pure sensation. It is the auditory mirror, reflecting all your pent-up fear, frustration, rage, disbelief and hatred. it is complete and utter darkness engulfing you.
- and yet it still feels so warm and comforting.The darkness, presented in this form. Nick Jensen
