lyrics

Marching to war
Foretold in the lore
With our strength and our might
We are eager to fight
No one can save you
You’ll be dead by the night!

We fight, you'll be dead by the night

When sword clashes with bone
When arrow pierces shield
When the horn is sounded
The war has begun, we ride to war
With a heathen roar

This battle, will be our last
All will fail and pass
Defeated we are
But abolished we are not
Fighting to the end
As the prophecy foretold

Fighting for our lives
Brothers die by our side
Nothing but blood is shed
All of the weak have fled

But alas we are strong
So we shall now carry on
Fighting to win
Avenging the dead
Storming on through
And charging ahead

Do not doubt, do not cave, do not fall
For one day we shall rule them all
This is our destiny
Make them bleed, make them suffer, make them cold
For this is what
The prophecy foretold

Now only the great remain
Clinging to the hope of fame
For the old tales do not lie
For legends
Legends never die

For we are the legends of old
And we won as the prophecy foretold

Fighting for our lives
Brothers die by our side
Nothing but blood is shed
All of the weak have fled

But alas we are strong
So we shall now carry on
Fighting to win
Avenging the dead
Storming on through
And charging ahead

Not gonna lie, I don't usually go in for the super composed, melodic flavor of black metal. That said, I'm thoroughly enjoying this release. Gives kinda an Old Man's Child type vibe. Ghuughra

This is my favorite metal album of all time. The only bad thing is that the vocals are somewhat buried in the mix. Otherwise, the record perfectly blends a mix of metal genres with excellent songcraft. A record you'll listen to again and again. The Real Nick House
