Flames Of War
06:47
|
|

We march along the front
Through ice and freezing rain
On to the battlefield
Into winters cold embrace
Our fighters fill the sky
Tracers light the night
Daytime turns to black
As our forces join the fight
In the fields of Belgium
At the siege of Bastogne
Our hope is lost
We’re isolated and alone
Surrounded by the enemy
We will make our stand
Defenders of the city
To every last man
We’ll never surrender
To our last dying breath
Every man together
The difference in life and death
Flames of war consume the land
Rising heat ‘til all is lost
A thousand years slowly fades
As it crumbles into dust
Ash and smoke fills the air
On every home surrender waves
And as we see the clearing skies
So many lost as darkness fades
We fight until the end
Desperate souls holding on
We’re beaten and battered
A regiment standing strong
We fight against all odds
And hold the lines
Will our reinforcements get to us in time?

Generation Strong
06:02
|
|

From our homelands we were called to fight
With a sadness overwhelming
We leave our families and life far behind
Will we ever make it home?
Trapped in a foreign land, starving and cold
Where will find the will to fight?
Until we see the image of atrocity
Now something burns deep inside
We are staring at the end
With every soldier we fight on
The life and death of ordinary men
They were a generation strong
We land on the beach and storm into the fight
The first wave crashes in with hopes to survive
Our brothers fall around us but still we struggle on
A testament to bravery, a generation strong
To our homelands we return from war
With a sadness overwhelming
We leave our brothers and lives far behind
Some will never make it home

Legacy
05:22
|
|
||
|
In the night I’m looking for answers
All my fears, in the dark they listen
All alone I cry out your name
Silently will we fade away?
Time corrupted this holy temple
Find the pieces that have been lost
Questions asked but never answered
What is left of our legacy?
All alone, I’m looking for answers
All my fears, will they fade away?

A Price For Freedom
05:44
|
|
||
|
From a heart of madness, endless reign of fear
Caught in the final solution
Deep in the Rhineland rivers are flowing red
Reflecting horrors of war
Every day a struggle to survive
We’ve lost our family and our homes
In the night of long knives bodies fill the streets
A dark new era has begun
Purging the homeland, taken with deadly force
All part of the master plan
Every day a struggle to survive
We’ve lost our family and our homes
Every night I pray only to die
I can not fight anymore
Enslaved in chains our freedom taken
A fight to death, are we lost today?
How many years are taken from us?
A price for freedom we learn today
In the fall of Berlin a once proud nation lost
Six years of death now at an end

Staring Into Oblivion
07:10
|
|
||
|
Count their tears they fall like rain
Feel their madness and their pain
We find ourselves staring into oblivion
For countless souls vanquished in time
For eons past by
They found themselves staring into oblivion
Alone we ride on our final journey
Have we done all that we can?
Alone in time our humanity is lost
Will we survive in the end?
Is this the end? Nothing lasts forever
Are we just a memory?
Our time is lost, an echo in the wind
Are we all too blind to see?
Staring into oblivion…we’re on the edge of the unknown
Staring into oblivion…in the darkness of the soul
In the night shadows all around
Will the daylight ever come?
In the dark, will we all be lost?
Are we staring at the end?

Survival
05:54
|
|
||
|
Through the raging storm we ride into the dawn
We fight just to stay alive
In the cold and ice a burning rage inside
A land that’s lost before its time
These lands won’t perish as long as we’re alive
Survival is the only way
In our darkest night we see the end is near
We fight for another day
And as we face the end, desire burns within
Can we somehow find a way?
Life is lost in time, did we see the signs?
Will we ever learn how to survive?
Faith is tested now, belief is lost somehow
Will we ever know how to survive?
In the cold and ice, we feel the northern rage
Our forces standing in the night
Their flames ignite the sky, a burning rage inside
Is this the end for us all?

The Blood Of Many
05:17
|
|
||
|
Our fleet fills the horizon
Closing in to break the wall
In the mist we sit in silence
Lost in though of family and home
Our ships cross the angry sea
Mighty steel sabers of war
Meant to slash the coming dawn
And stab the heart of our enemy
As we reach the shoreline
The gates drop to a vision of hell
Confusion turns to chaos
As we dodge the enemy shells
We reach the lines by nightfall
A force now that fights as one
The liberation of Europe
We now know begins this day
Early morning on the northern shore
The tide sends us to fight
With a prayer in the hands of fate
Bound for glory or the grave
Remember us on this day of days
A hard-won victory
On this beach the blood of many
Washes out to sea
We must defend our freedom
Despite all the pain and suffering
Is this world truly lost?
The conqueror of Europe
Threatening to march on us all
Through blitzkrieg and holocaust
Iron armies enacting the toll
Allied force of liberty
We’re determined to change the course
We draw the plan for invasion
On the coast of Normandy

Until The War Is Won
05:05
|
|
||
|
In The age of fire we walk through the storm
The sky it burns a deepened red
A sign that we are warned
We wage war in the south, a land of the sun
We won’t stop the fighting
Until the war is won
In the fields we die, a generation lost
Year after year we fall no matter what the cost
Too many times we’ve lost a father and a son
But we will never waiver Until the war is won
We gather in the fields, the allies stand as one
A force for the fallen, our vengeance has begun
A claim of these sacred lands, a hopeless genocide
A people loss in evil, our history won’t lie

We Stand Broken
07:10
|
|
||
|
Stand up enormous country
Stand up for deadly fight
Against the dark invading force
Fight against the crimson horde
Persistence is the only way
Defend the sacred homelands
To the violators, to the takers
To the persecutors of innocents
May our noble fury, rise like a wave
And cast out invaders
We reject their nation and the death they bring
Today we stand unbroken
Black wings won’t dare to fly
To fly over our lands
Fighting is the only way
To save our sacred homeland
To our leaders, to our armies
Defenders of the innocent

On this pummeling new LP, the Austin group blend up screamo, black metal, and noise rock into heady, urgent music.

Killer, knotty blackened prog from Norway, full of ferocity and complexity, with blistering guitar leads aplenty.

When Empires Fall
by Ancient Empire
supported by 46 fans who also own “Until The War Is Won”
Impressive old-school, guitar-driven power metal, just the basics without necessary fat. Basically a one-man band (except for the drums), delivering some consistent metal awesomeness. If you like more of this, get the whole discography.
