Track (07) of the Scimitar - 'Where Darkness Dwells' debut album.
lyrics
The time has come, so gather round
United we stand, armoured bound
In the distance, lies your fate
Stand together, attack with hate
Hear the trumpets, sound in the distance
Back to war, shine the steel
Ready for vengeance, back to war
Screams of terror, howling in the air
Back to war, archers point, aim, and fire
Back to war
North we ride, the legions in black
Victory is ours, we can’t look back
The smell of fear, across death skies
Scenes of horror, through my eyes
Slashing heads off their bodies
Back to war, back to war
Castle walls, fall with thunder
Back to war, Back to war
Winter storm, slowly approaches
Back to war, back to war
We’ve a bastard king to kill
Back to war, back to war
In the end, there can be only one
That stands triumphant, at the dawn of the sun
The taste of blood, will never leave
Now brandish that axe, there’s bone to cleave
Scimitar are a Thrash Metal band from Belfast, N. Ireland formed in 2011. The band wrote music for around a year, before
performing their live debut in June 2012 in The Warzone Centre. Since then our fans' reaction and support has been overwhelming; we received an amazing response from the local Belfast Metal scene and shared our music with local and touring bands in the UK and Ireland....more
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. Odiumediae
Make Thrash Great Again. The tracks are all amazing, the lyrics are impeccable fuck you yes they are (kids are gross, metal culture is toxic, the universe dying). Civilization is a surprisingly stonery. My favorite track is Offense because finally an LGBT fight song worth beating up priests to. BUY THE ALBUM YOU COWARDS. Please support all future endeavors. goblintoof
