Fas – Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum

Fas – Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum (Latin for "Divine Law – Go, Accursed, into Everlasting Fire") is the fourth full-length album by the black metal band Deathspell Omega.

The line "Every human being not going to the extreme limit is the servant or the enemy of man" in "A Chore for the Lost" comes from Inner Experience by the French post-surrealist Georges Bataille,[5] a frequent source of lyrical inspiration for Deathspell Omega.

Much of the album's lyrics are taken verbatim from the book, as well as his other works Theory of Religion and The Solar Anus.

[7] Music critic Thom Jurek's interpretation is that the use of these texts by the band is "for the purpose of explaining the Devil not as God's mystical antithesis, but as a pure nihilistic humanist construct that is synthesis.

On another interpretation, the album "represents the Bataillean quest for the "critical spasm", while remaining torn as to whether or not what one has just experienced was revolting or gratifying.
