Pagan Rule
05:06

We follow the flight of the one eyed crow
Down beneath the blackened tree
Fallen leaves
You can hear it
The sound of steel against the shields
Echoes surround the hills
Fear fills your veins
The Axe will swing
Crimson must spill
Invade, occupy, for pagan rule
Side by side together we ride
Flames in our hearts, valour inside
Side by side together we ride
Into battle, no fear in our eyes
Monarchs behind the ranks
Not their guts spilt
Why stand for these men
Choose gods of old
As these fathers stand with their sons in war
They reach the gates of Valhalla
Burn the bodies of our fallen
Float on the sea
Flames rise high

Wretched Dread
03:56
|

|
An evil reign for the darkest years
Loss of life
Generation loss
Despair filled their hearts
No hope of release
Your souls will burn for this
Upon the raging flames
Your souls will burn for this
We choose your fate
Wretched dread seeps inside
Realise destiny
You will pray for our mercy
Who will feel the steel
Of my blade through their flesh
As their brothers watch on
One by one dragged to the cross
Sacrificed to the gods
Fear reflects eye to eye
Clutch for hope
Dread surrounds like a snake
Bodies pile up
Atrocities recognized
Pathetic tears
Dry your eyes

Death Immortal
04:22
|

|
Sulphur fills the air
Stench of demons ever near
Climb the cliffs of the dead
As spears of hate rain down upon you
Rivers run red
Hate fills your head
Run for your lives
No one survives
The beast comes charging through the smoke
Fierce flames reflect upon the eyes
Images scorched into their minds
Of this blaze that claimed their wretched lives
Ashes they blow away just like your dignity
Return to the fire from which you came
We march upon a bridge of bodies
Relinquish your grasp
Your gods powers have diminished
Thy altars will crumble and fall
Death immortal

Vile Retribution
03:31
|
|||
|
Maniacal dictatorship
Suffering left in your wake
Oppressor of the masses
We will dethrone
Annihilate
Now your day has come
Weโll tear you limb from limb
Exhibit the violence
A vile retribution
Rotting flesh left behind you
City walls still smouldering
Blood no longer runs under your reign
Cascading Tears
Nothing falls for you
I drag back soil from your grave
Sins pour out
Misery
Look before you, do you see a king
I see a broken man
Annihilate

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise.

I bought the digital version and after a few listens I realised I hadn't paid enough, so I bought the CD from Transcending Obscurity. Effing great.

Heaviest thing Iโve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay Iโve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore
