lyrics

A day like any other until Mal’ganis struck
Plague of Undeath swept across Lordaeron
The walls of Stratholme rising to the sky
The race to save the city begins

Their numbers grew as they reached the gates
His once loyal subjects finding peace by his blade
I will uphold the weight of this death
And seek redemption
By the power of the holy light

We fight to save the kingdom
We remain strong to fight the scourge
We cannot allow our passions to turn to blood lust
Vengeance can’t be part of what we do

They arrive in Stratholme, but too late
Only moments lie between them and a bloody tide
Silence fell when he gave the order - Kill them all
The smoke and screams begin to rise

he steps now to the place of no return
The descent to icy darkness begins
(All for honor, all for love
We did what must be done
Now we dwell in hell below)

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

This album is a wagonload of fun and definitely an improvement to their last one, it is on par with any other good power metal album out there. Now I'd really like to read a book about the story. Didn't expect that Sean Bean would die. to rock or not to rock
