Yes, it does!
Here it is:

I wanna be a legionair
I'm gonna shave off all my hair
Walk real stupid, talk real loud
I'm gonna make my mother proud

I wanna be a legionair
I'll wear a dress, but I don't care
An army camp is now my home
I'll kill and maim and rape for Rome

Scutum!
Pilum!
Sin, dex, sin, dex...

and no, it is not to be taken serious. :wink:

For example, when we recorded it, we did not have any soldiers in the studio, so Roland (co-producer) had to walk with a toolkit in front of the mikrophone to imitate the marching troups Big Grin


Re: Roman marching song - FAVENTIANVS - 08-09-2006

A very easy one using a mediaeval song called AD
MORTEM FESTINAMUS(We hurry towards death) from the
Catalan Manuscrit EL LLIBRE VERMELL DE MONSERRAT
( http://www.cobla-amsterdam.nl/d_discografie.htm )
mixing the tune with the famous NEMO DEMITTAT
BANDUM...

Ad mortem festinamus
peccare desistamus
peccare desistamus

Nemo demittat bandum
et inimicos seque
et inimicos seque

Omnia mores perimit
et nulli miseretur
et nulli miseretur

... and so on.

The Omnia samples are now here.....
[url:2w2126sq]http://www.musicline.de/en/product/5099751971825[/url] I love these sounds...
With that 'bassy' drum some of these would be really good to play while driving in the car....especially Saltatio :roll: :roll: hehehehe
(You can find sound clips from the other albums too....Pagan Folk is rather good)

Hi Arthes,

thank you for the link.

Interesting, I can´t remember to have given my ok for that company for the download... :wink:
*honk*

For explanation: I was ones a member of Omnia and produced the CD "Sine Missione" with them. Big Grin
