Polish atmospheric black/epic doom metal solo project Divine Sovereign has released the lyric video for “Enshrined Kind,” a defining track from the album Autaxia Chronicles: Dawn Of A New Age, out in digital format and on CD.
“Enshrined Kind” marks the moment where Divine Sovereign fully shaped the narrative core of the project. What began as a distant vision of galactic conflict shifted toward a more grounded and human question: why do uprisings fail, and what force is strong enough to unite people when shared culture and history are not?
“The Lyric video for that song is like a milestone in my musical endeavors, sort of cementing this first chapter,” says Divine Sovereign, “beginning of, hopefully, a long journey that’s ahead of me.”
The inspiration came from the revolt of Spartacus, the largest slave uprising in ancient Rome. Nearly 100,000 rebels rose together, only to fall apart from internal division. Their defeat sparked a key idea behind Autaxia Chronicles: what would it take for such a rebellion to succeed?
The answer was belief.
Centuries after Spartacus, Christianity spread through the Roman Empire and became its state religion. “Enshrined Kind” reflects this turning point—not as an account of an organized faith, but as its earliest formation. Under oppression, faith emerges in fragments: shared stories, half-remembered parables, and the idea of a chosen people. Slowly, belief becomes a bond stronger than blood or origin.
The track captures unity at its rawest stage. Not doctrine. Not structure. Just belief beginning to take shape—and already powerful enough to change history.

Founded in 2023 by multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Cezary Rochnowski, Divine Sovereign draws inspiration from the likes of Ethereal Shroud, Panopticon, and Atlantean Kodex. The project crafts epic, narrative-driven compositions set in the world of Autaxia, a planet where advanced beings unearth the remnants of a once-thriving civilization. Through intricate songwriting and atmospheric intensity, Divine Sovereign explores the duality of faith—its power to liberate and its potential to enslave.
