“Credo in unum Deum, patrem omnipotentum, creatorem coeli et terrae, visibilium et invisibilium.” The words are an unmistakable copy of the Latin version of the Creed. Except that their context is light years away from traditionalists’ liturgies. These are in fact the opening lyrics to Credo, the new single released by London rock band Ooberfuse on 11 October to mark the beginning of the Year of Faith.
The language is not desecrating. On the contrary: the aim of the song is to bring the core message of the Catholic faith into the slightly unusual environment of fusion music. In this sense, the Catholic trio already has some interesting experiences under its belt. The group’s talent is recognised even outside the Christian music scene.
