Reaching For The Night

(Music and Lyrics: VJ)
Gonna make my move tonight
Gonna feel I'm in control
Tonight I’ve got the knife
And the heads are gonna roll
Cut down those bastards
Cut down all that's in my path
Fire burning in my eyes
I'm gonna make it last
Because the stars are burning bright
I'm on the way, I'm reaching for the night
Stars are burning bright
I'm on the way, I'm reaching for the night
Fuck this procrastination
Letting life slip by
Only got one life to live
And I'm gonna live it right
No time for losers who say
Who I’m supposed to be
You can piss your life away
And I'll do what's best for me
Because the stars are burning bright
I'm on the way, I'm reaching for the night
Stars are burning bright
I'm on the way, I'm reaching for the night

Choir Of The Cursed
03:13
|
|||
|
(Music and Lyrics: VJ)
There are forces that wreathe that which most cannot see on their own
Sounds in the night whisper out with their inhuman tones
The darkness it dares you to turn out the lights
Afraid that the shadows won't move
Your heart starts to beat at a threatening pace
And you’re caught between four walls of doom
Your mind fills with songs from the past that you've never once heard
Voices that dance in your mind, so precise, without words
Whispers so loud that they deafen like screams
Like a babe crying out from the womb
A hunger to feast on the fear that you feed
On this night between four walls of doom
Solo I: SLB
Solo II: VJ
Waiting for sleep, praying for dawn
But there's no escape, as the choir sings on

Hot Passion
03:51
|

|
(Music: VJ, Mendoza Lyrics: MM, VJ)
On the open road so fast
Top down, shot gun,
And the good times blast
We come in first, we go on last
A thousand miles to rock this town
Demolition at the speed of sound
You won’t know what hit you
Gonna make you kiss the ground
Hot lights, stage fright
I’m gonna strip the paint from the walls
Scorched earth, live birth
I’m gonna fly before I fall
Hot passion, burning in my soul
Hot passion, gonna take control
Hot passion
I don’t care what your mama said
If you’re working every minute
‘Til you wake up dead
Electric noise cures all regrets
Burning out every single trace
Every cold night, every hollow face
Lightning will lift you
Jam you into outer space
These toys make noise,
So come and get your money’s worth
Break you in two
Who’s gonna be the first?
Hot passion, burning in my soul
Hot passion, gonna take control
Hot passion
Solo: SLB
On the open road again
We’ll be taking no captives
And repent no sins
Clean slate from dawn ‘til dusk tonight
Reliving every heavy song
Going deaf to regrets and riding long
We face the force
We set the course where we belong
Cold eyes, no lies
It’s just another notch on the belt
Until you will
Play the cards that you’ve been dealt
Hot passion, burning in my soul
Hot passion, gonna take control
Hot passion

Black Angel
03:01
|
|||
|
(Music: VJ Lyrics: MM, VJ)
Black Angel in the night
Rise above with wings held high
Eyes burn, like embers they glow
Won't reveal the things that you know
Bring fire to the fields
Through the mud, machines that men wield
Ears split with deafening cries
Wings wet with blood as you fly
Ooh - Black Angel
No, the hearts of the brave can't save us
Nor the light of the way
Black Angel, show your face tonight
Black Angel in the Earth
Awakening an ancient curse
Dive deeper to scar the land
And break it with your septic hand
It’s written in the sky
Raining down your poison lies
Spin your web, your toxic shroud
And strangle us without a sound
Ooh - Black Angel
No, the hearts of the brave can't save us
Nor the light of the way
Black Angel, show your face tonight
Trade solo: VJ/SLB/VJ/SLB
Black Angel in my veins
The mercury in what will remain
Of the poison pageantry
Built on fear and naked greed
Ooh - Black Angel
No, the hearts of the brave can't save us
Nor the light of the way
Black Angel, show your face tonight
Ooh - Black Angel
No, the hearts of the brave can't save us
And, tell me, who are the brave?
Black Angel, none can make it right

Satan's Hallow
03:58
|
|||
|
(Music and Lyrics: VJ)
When the nightfall surrounds you and the wind howls with fear
And you've only the moonlight to see through the clear
Curse the others who've taken retreat to their homes
They curl in their beds and quake in their bones
Chosen by fate as you take on this journey alone
There’s no going back and your chance for return is unknown
Her name was Rebecca, she was only sixteen
Fair-skinned and dark-haired, and cold eyes of green
She spoke of The Hollow, where the sane dare not creep
And nobody seems to have seen her for weeks
Since she's been gone we've had nothing but death and disease
And at night when it's clear you can still hear her name through the breeze
Solo I: VJ
Solo II: SLB
As the darkness gets colder and your breath starts to steam
Into the circle where the embers still gleam
And the smoke in the air reeks the faint scent of death
And gone is the young girl who gave you her last breath
And the moment is silent except for the rustle of leaves
And the night is so clear you can still hear her name through the breeze
Solo: SLB

The Horror
02:36
|
|||
|
(Music: VJ Lyrics: VJ, Vomito, MM)
Under the full moon, running through the forest
White human statues with the face of menace
The increasing sounds of the serpent beast run through the night
No turning back because The Horror has arrived
Don't meet her gaze, don't be a fool
Cover your face and feel the wind –so cruel
Reaching out through the dark night
She will meet her end in your mirror
Just turn away from the eyes of The Horror
Unmistaken fear when you're near her presence
One slight mistake made could be your life sentence
The increasing sounds of the serpent beast run through the night
No turning back because The Horror has arrived
Don't meet her gaze, don't be a fool
Cover your face and feel the wind - so cruel
Reaching out through the dark night
She will meet her end in your mirror
Just turn away from the eyes of The Horror
Solo I: VJ
Solo II: SLB
Don't meet her gaze, don't be a fool
Cover your face and feel the wind - so cruel
Reaching out through the dark night
She will meet her end in your mirror
Just turn away from the eyes of The Horror

Moving On

(Music and Lyrics: VJ)
Been fooled so many times
Been told so many lies
Don't know what to believe
But I know that I can't leave
This feeling deep inside tears me apart
Stabbing like a knife so deep in my heart
I can't waste my time gotta keep on moving on
Is this all make believe?
See what you want to see
Blinded by foolish pride
But I know that I can't hide
This feeling deep inside tears me apart
Stabbing like a knife so deep in my heart
I can't waste my time gotta keep on moving on
Solo I: SLB
Solo II: VJ
You're so far away although I'm beside you
And although the truth burns like fire
I can't wait, I keep on running
Can't seem to break away
Can’t find a lucid state
Half dead and half awake
But I know I can't escape
This feeling deep inside tears me apart
Stabbing like a knife so deep in my heart

Still Alive
05:02
|
|||
|
(Music: VJ Lyrics: MM, VJ)
Dawn has broken
I can feel your presence loom beyond my sight
Wait for nightfall
To feel your absence as the angels steal the light
Oh, the dawn, it clings
Oh, I feel the torment that it brings
In the daylight
I still hear your song, it calls, I can’t escape you
Wait for night until it falls, I have to keep you
Though forever you’ll be gone you’re still alive
When I believe it
I seek the path that leads me home, I can’t retrieve it
When I deny it
I lose the chills but feel and fight the urge to buy it
Oh, the shadows spread
Oh, the immortality of dread
In the daylight
I still hear your song, it calls, I can’t escape you
Wait for night until it falls I have to keep you
Though forever you’ll be gone you’re still alive
Solos: SLB
Harmony: SLB and VJ
At the crossroads
There’s a lightning bolt of fear across tomorrow
Piercing arrows
Shot fast and true by the icy hand of sorrow
Oh, I hear the screams
Oh, they cannot wake me from this dream
In the daylight
I still hear your song, it calls, I can’t escape you
Wait for night until it falls I have to keep you
Though forever you’ll be gone you’re still alive
Solo: SLB

Beyond The Bells
05:19
|
|||
|
(Music: VJ Lyrics: VJ, MM)
When the piper plays the tune
As waves reflect the silver moon
A swell of cries rolls with the tide
And crashes to the shore
A harmony of sleep reborn
The hungry, sick, and battle torn
Laid out to rest and so are blessed
And lost forevermore
You've chosen black, I’ll go with white
If I can play to win, oh, will I steal the light?
But I don't know, you seem too sure
In your eyes I see that death is waiting for its turn
The pieces on the board they feel so smooth
Raise up your withered hand and make your move
Aghast as visions fill your mind
You take another sip of wine
So ill at ease as memories seem fictional, almost
And if too soon my soul is won
And if I never see the sun
Rise up again, my brethren
Still keep me in your hearts
Another knight, another pawn
It won't be long until the final piece is drawn
I feel you stare, it burns like ice
But in the end I know we all must pay the price
The pieces on the board are now but few
With one last strike you make your final move
You will never know when it is time for you
Beyond the bells, into the hells of heroes, saints, and fools
You will never know what lies beyond for you
If only to be crystallized into something new
Solo I: VJ
Solos II & III: SLB
The time has come for you, my friend
Your journey has come to an end
So hark the Devil's angels sing
Or will they? No one knows
A destiny you can't avoid
Your spirit slips into the void
Then sucked away without a trace
Into the great unknown
Just one more night, let me fight on
I see the starless sky give way to my last dawn
With noble form but all in vain
There is no victory to lead me from this game
"And wish, so please my sovereign, ere I move
What my tongue speaks my right drawn sword shall prove"
You will never know when it is time for you
Beyond the bells, into the hells of heroes, saints, and fools
You will never know what lies beyond for you
If only to be crystallized into something new
You never know

This album is amazing. It infuses that traditional heavy metal style with that sort of power metal lyrics and vocal style too. The guitar work is fantastic and all the solos are smooth and fluid. The vocals tho, are just phenomenal. Would recommend this to any metal fan, old and new.

This... THIS is how you revive classic and traditional metal from the 80s while making it your own. I could rant and rave for a mini novel's worth of words about why this album is just... impossibility good. I've had to retract so much because of how long winded I got. Please just give it a shot if it's within the subgenres you like.
