Astral Firestorm
04:36
|
|||
|
Welcome to the place where all of your dreams come true
No gods or masters to tell us what to do
We are immortal, the sands of time will not fade away the lust for blood and fire
We'll break the cycle and we'll transcend the pain
Strike fear in hearts of all who resist in vain
Lo, the endless power, the knowledge we create
Behold our splendor as we display our grace
We are eternal, we'll slake our steel with blood for the glory of the great empire
We'll break the cycle and we'll transcend the pain
Strike fear in hearts of all who resist in vain
but who would dare to stand in the way of our glory
Minds will align and we will devastate
Fire in the sky, night is set ablaze
The stars are falling down to Earth in thousands
All I see is light and smoke
My blood boils inside
The fire's burning bright
And there's nothing I can do
We did this to ourselves
The wicked king will rule
The fire's burning bright, and now we
see the darkness in the depths of our hearts
as we burn and we vanish
we're consumed by the fire within

Reanimator

I can still feel the rain on my back
I can still feel the dirt on my hands
As I prepare the room for the ritual about to commence
We've learned from our mistakes
The preparations are done
My heart is racing, I feel like this might be the one
[CHORUS]
Are you ready to join us once more, in the midnight hour
Feel the chemicals coursing through your veins
Can you open your eyes to the world, embrace the vital power
As it sends a shockwave through your brain
The cold hand of fear grips my heart
I can barely contain my distress
For the lifeless form starts to writhe as if by demons possessed
Next thing I recall is the pain
Throbbing in the back of my head
Followed by the discovery that what we created has fled
[CHORUS]
Are you ready to join us once more, in the midnight hour
And feel the chemicals coursing through your veins
Can you open your eyes to the world, embrace the vital power
As it sends a shockwave through your brain
Are you ready to join them once more, in the midnight hour
And let the violence overload your brain
So they unleash their fury at last with tremendous power
As your soul escapes your body's pain

Reckless Abandon
01:33
|
|||
|
Come and step inside
See the light that glows
From a heart like the sun that pumps fire
Come and take the ride
Hesitation goes
When the wildfire starts to grow
Give in to the beast deep inside of you
Let reckless abandon hold sway
No flame burns forever, but death won't end your infamy
Your legacy will never fade away
See the system blow
Hear the silent screams
Fall apart as the ground below gives way
Feel the shockwaves hit
Skulls are smashed like dreams
When the power blows you away
Give in to the beast deep inside of you
Let reckless abandon hold sway
No flame burns forever, but death won't end your infamy
Your legacy will never fade away

The Art of Revenge
02:39
|
|||
|
Another day
Another voice that's silenced
Lessons learned through the means of force
I won't wait
I will bring real justice
Every day and without remorse
I would trade every one of the days I have left
For my dream to be fulfilled
And I will make them run until the bitter end
and practise the art of revenge
I'm the one
Master of the fear
That rules the minds of the evil ones
And be warned
You could be the next
So stay in line, or start to run
I would trade every one of the days I have left
For my dream to be fulfilled
And I will make them run until the bitter end
and practise the art of revenge
I would trade every one of the days I have left
For my dream to be fulfilled
And I will see to it that justice will prevail
and practise the art of revenge
Until the end

Skullcrusher
03:14
|
|||
|
Destruction imminent
Your blood will slake his steel
And feed the frenzy of unrelenting violence
You feel the crimson tears
As skulls are smashed to bits
You want to scream, but you cannot break the silence
Stand and accept your demise
And death will reign
Skullcrusher
A pyramid of skulls
Around his sacred throne
Eternal fires fueled by demonic power
Through pools of blood you crawl
Ripped up by shattered bone
The sounds of carnage define your final hour
Pray to a god you hate
And hope he'll let you in
once it's the time to just
Stand and accept your demise
And death will reign
Skullcrusher
The faces lined in pain
When fury comes alive
Possessed by anger you witness the destruction
You clench your fists in rage
And make a sacred vow
To stop the spread of this demonic corruption
You gather all your strength
To make your final stand
Just to be cut down now
Rise and be stripped of your life
Cause death will reign
Skullcrusher

Eldritch Realms
04:04
|
|||
|
The haunting thoughts that are roaming through my brain
Chasing the time when everything was clear
Desperate search for the memories that remain
Even though I know that they're no longer here
I feel my mind forgetting who I am
And I feel I'm approaching the end
Dark monoliths glowing in the purple fire
With pools of souls, so putrid and shallow
A sluggish march past the giant black stone spires
Why does it feel like I'm walking to the gallows
I feel my mind forgetting who I am
And I feel like I'm slipping so
Where can I go
Because this nightmare is starting to take it's toll
It's all that I want to know
Please tell me there's a way out of this hell
This eldritch realm has got me under it's spell
Where can I go
Because this nightmare has started to take it's toll
It's all that I want to know
Where can I go
Because this nightmare has already taken it's toll
It's all that I know

The Nameless One
03:28
|
|||
|
Salvation does not wait for everyone
Unlike the prophecy foretold
I know, I've seen it with my own two eyes
And now, well now I'm paying the price
For countless centuries I've roamed
Without a name, a home or a soul
All of my thoughts just seem to fade away
All my humanity erased
The sands of time just seem to pass me by
And I, well I just don't know why
For countless centuries I've roamed
Without a name, a home or a soul
I don't recall who or what did this to me
And I'm losing control
For countless centuries I've roamed
Without a name, a home or a soul
Starting to lose grip on this reality
I'm losing control

Night falls on barren plains
A red moon rises high
The darkness takes control
Beneath a starless sky
A dark land of decay
Traces of battles fought
Abandoned ruins of
A place the world forgot
----------------------------
Wait for the morning sun
to save you from this night
From all the horrors
of the desolate outside
With undead beings out
for blood throughout the night
Don't look back and ride like the wind
for the bastion of light
----------------------------
Visions of distant lands
A moth drawn to a flame
Your wings will burn again
With only you to blame
The curse has taken hold
Souls mend your ailing mind
Tempting to let it slip
And leave it all behind
----------------------------
[Chorus]
----------------------------
A war to kill em all
A curse to make them rise
An existential hell
Behind their empty eyes
Now could you be the one
To end their horrid lives
Would you be brave enough
Or dumb enough to try

Strike to Kill
03:02
|
|||
|
The hammer comes down again
Just like we've seen before, yeah
More proof that evil is breathing still
No remorse
Strike to kill
No need for reasoning now
No promise to fulfill
Brutality to the point of overkill
No remorse
Strike to kill
And in the final hour, you lose yourself again <-- AIN!
And give into the shadow in your
heart and though you claim that you're still just the same
You don't know who you are
Well I should not be surprised
You're human after all
But deep inside I hoped you'd have the will
No remorse
Strike to kill
But has it all been for naught
And don't you feel a chill
When you see the fear that you've instilled
No remorse
Strike to kill
And in the final hour, you lose yourself again <-- AIN!
And give into the shadow in your
heart and though you claim that you're still just the same
You don't know who you are
And in the final hour, the darkness strikes again <--AIN!
You give into the shadow in your
heart and though you claim that you're still just the same
You don't know who you are

It's calling out through the lightning and thunder
Demonic force tears the ground asunder
Life's cheap and death is free as long as you act fast
Our offer stands for as long as supplies last
The earth was hungry, so it ate some people
Anarchy reigns in the city of evil
The earth was hungry, so it ate some people
No second chances at the height of it's power
A burning sky and a will to devour
It's not the time or place to gamble with fate now
And don't stop moving, 'cause it won't hesitate now
The earth was hungry, so it ate some people
Anarchy reigns in the city of evil
The earth was hungry, so it ate some people

Shock Trooper
02:26
|
|||
|
A flash of lightning tears up the sky
Revealing barren wastelands below
We embrace the darkness within
And we let our humanity go
Well at last, the fear and the pain are all gone
Through the fire, we will stand strong
Marching on, towards the dawn of a new day
We will find a way
Feral instincts have taken control
We've won the battle in our heads
I'd love to see them keep us at bay
Now that all we are seeing is red

The Metal Age
03:09
|
|||
|
Cold white lights illuminate the path I follow,
footsteps near as I disappear in darkness
Ancient streets, I'm branded on my feet from waiting
soon to strike and destroy the fear that's spreading
Faces of iron and eyes of fire
They're ready to see you die
Nothing to lose in organic life
when the metal age arrives
Spread your lies, they will not save you from yourself
When all around you comes crashing down in fire
Truth will die, but can eternal lie within the
burning ruins of your metal empire
Faces of iron and eyes of fire
I'm ready to see you die
Nothing to lose now, no absolution
It's time to say goodbye

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellripper
supported by 20 fans who also own “Astral Firestorm”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

Biased bassist opinion: The bass guitar driven sound of this massive power metal masterpiece made me want to grab MY bass and learn every song in a way that hasn't happened to me since the first time I heard Iron Maiden - Powerslave! These aural annihilation anthems are filled with expert musicianship and exquisite lyrics belted by one of the best voices metal has to offer! Do not pass this one up!
