CharlieB This album tells a great story from beginning to end. Excellent vocals, superb drumming and epic guitar solos. Kudos to Nick for his genius behind this album. I look forward to more coming from this band. Favorite track: The Rebirth of Prometheus.

Héctor Hurtado Grooscors Thanks to Dave Proger for the feed on this one. Excellent retro sound, with some 60's psych elements and an occult vibe. The female vocals reminds me at times of Hope Sandoval in her early years with Mazzy Star.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) 60's psych influenced hard/stoner grooves fronted by a seriously good female vocalist who avoids the shouty blues clichés by going instead for smokey smooth and deliciously sweet! Favorite track: Curse of The Brocken.

It cries within my soul Body yes, but mind says no Hear the call of the Wendigo Piercing through my soul Been so long since I’ve had food And I lust for what I must not do A welcoming feast Though it’s spirit is unclean It cries within my soul Body yes, but mind says no The beast has made me obsessed With the thought of human flesh That meal never satisfies A burning hunger sits deep inside The succulent taste To eat a stranger’s face Mid 8 (moaning)

Over the hills and through the woods Where the blackberry bushes stood Haunted by her everyday When I thought she had gone away Time has sent me back Who made this curse, alack! The ghost of lady grey She goes and comes to stay She makes me hide and she makes me run She makes all life devoid of fun She makes me think I wanna die In this patch ‘neath an empty sky Life has sent me back Who made this curse, alack! The ghost of lady grey She goes and comes to stay The ghost of lady grey She goes and comes to stay

Yellow 02:38
A goblin told me ‘Success is only Built on the color green’ But, I’ve lived lonely, With what he sold me. And achromic in between I’ve been looking for something Rarer than any pearl I’ve been looking for something That could change my world It’s Yellow, Yellow, It’s not what you have It’s when you’re not sad It’s yellow, Yellow, It’s not who you know, It’s that they don’t go God, you’ve made me, Set me, strayed me, On the path of the color blue I’ve tried to fight it, But in my mind it’s All because of you I’ve been begging for something Can’t you hear my plight I’ve been begging for something That could change my life It’s Yellow, Yellow, It’s not what you have It’s when you’re not sad It’s yellow, Yellow, It’s not who you know, It’s that they don’t go I’m in the pursuit of something that just ain’t in the pursuit of something that just ain’t in the pursuit of something that just ain’t real And It’s Yellow, Yellow, It’s not what you have It’s when you’re not sad It’s yellow, Yellow, It’s not who you know, It’s that they don’t go It’s yellow, Yellow It’s Yellow, Yellow

There’s a demon in my belly There’s a suffering in my soul I’ve got a life filled with worry But no one else seems to know And, it’s so hard to have a demon-child Yes, it’s so hard to bear such weight Oh, it’s s hard to have this worry child Why couldn’t I have a simpler fate? I stay home to try and please it If feeds upon my greatest fears And when the priest tried to save me It simply would not disappear And, it’s so hard to have a demon-child Yes, it’s so hard to bear such weight Oh, it’s s hard to have this worry child Why couldn’t I have a simpler fate? And, it’s so hard to have a demon-child Yes, it’s so hard to bear such weight Oh, it’s s hard to have this worry child Why couldn’t I have a simpler fate? And, it’s so hard to have a demon-child Why couldn’t I have a simpler fate?

Crafting golems out of the wet and clay One of the ancients alive in the modern day With the flame That old flame Yes, the flame I’ve got the flame! Zeus regretted everything I made So the fool, took all the flame away Yes, I’ve made my mind, What a waste of life To not have what they lack It’s a sacrifice, But so worth the price, Just for them to have the flame back

Put in a tow’r in exile from man Watching as children sing and they dance Under the tune of those Nordic fools All while Fickleness rules Watch the children dance and play I can’t hear a single word they say I sit from apart From the wars they start And the knights they hold in fame See them learn how to lie Wish they could see from up on high See the world from a different point of view Instead of the depth they do Watch the children dance and play I can’t hear a single word they say I sit from apart From the wars they start And the knights they hold in fame Watch the children dance and play I can’t hear a single word they say I sit from apart From the wars they start And the knights they hold in fame

I’ve got my hand in the fire My heart in my hand I’d give it all up for the fatherland I was sent on a mission To take down your king I give all they say, and they say everything Bodies are weak, I’m headstrong Bravery for love is lifelong And the fire, the fire, the fire Makes me strong I’ve made a mistake But I’ll suffer the cost My gains are much greater than the things I’ve lost I return a hero For what I’ve done An extremity lost for an empire won Bodies are weak, I’m headstrong Bravery for love is lifelong And the fire, the fire, the fire SOLO Bodies are weak, I’m headstrong Bravery for love is lifelong And the fire, the fire, the fire Makes me strong

I saw the princess riding Til’ the death of the sun To the vampire’s castle whom she said she loved There among the moonlight Trapped in a spell She thinks she is in heaven As she goes through hell Remember when she used to Live among the day? See her skin grow paler And her smile fade With the giving of With the giving of Blood With the giving of With the giving of Blood I saw the princess dying With the birth of the moon People pray her curse be lifted But don’t help her with her doom A sickly shell that loves him, A bat that couldn’t care, Where is Morris with his knife, To penetrate his lair? I heard he wants her locked up With him in his place, She will stay forever Just to pass away With the giving of With the giving of Blood With the giving of With the giving of Blood Remember when she used to Live among the day? See her skin grow paler And her smile fade With the giving of With the giving of Blood With the giving of With the giving of Blood With the giving of With the giving of Blood

He stood on the mountain in the mists of that wicked Brocken, Witches scorched him with the fire, like Lucifer told them Somewhere, someone could have altered his fate But magic lured him to fall into sin, Made him begin A curse A curse Spellbound, he went down from the mountain, sick from what he had endured Ignoring the chapel, he decides that, he should never be cured Needing white magic that’s nowhere in sight Instead he feels he’s one of the night, He ruined his life with Solo Somewhere, someone could have altered his fate But magic lured him to fall into sin, Made him begin A curse A curse

The Path 02:29
I watched as the stars crashed into the land, The crimson rider has taken command, Where is the love? Where is man’s love? I stood as the locusts filled up the sky, Hypocrites squirming and starting to cry, Where is the love? Where is man’s love? They’ve lost sight of the truth, Forcing the world to be cruel Egos have already skewed The path I saw a woman robed in the sun, Then came a hydra to eat up her son, Where is the love? Where is man’s love? I heard blaspheming from on the seashore, Was it the beast or the people He scorned? Where is the love, Where is man’s love? They’ve lost sight of the truth, Forcing the world to be cruel Egos have already skewed The path Why? Why? Why live in hate? Why? Why? Why perpetuate pain? Why? Why? Why? I heard blaspheming from on the seashore, Was it the beast or the people He scorned? Where is the love, Where is man’s love?

I gave it a shot For the freedom I sought But the warnings were true I was flying I was flying But I fell into the sea I was flying How I careened Into the ocean so green Was is worth the shot? I was flying I was flying But I fell into the sea I was flying But I fell into the sea When my bones wash up, Could a sun bring me back to life?
