Infestissumam

Theme

The album's title track and conceptual anchor, establishing the central theme of demonic presence and threat. 'Infestissumam' (an archaic Latin superlative meaning 'the most hostile') serves as the album's declaration: the Antichrist has arrived, and darkness now infests the world. The track introduces Papa Emeritus II and the narrative continuation from Ghost's debut, dealing with the relationship between the individual and the presence of darkness.
