lyrics
Despised and Cursed by the Pharoahs
Tongue tied to liken the sword
Those wronged follow the righteousness
And all will fall
Torn flesh, stillbirth
Shattered bones blacken the earth
Carved stone, forged in steel
Suffer by point of the spear
Raised to fight, born to kill
Forever scorned, graves to fill
Chaos reigns, Gods decide
Death or life
At dawn we ride
Closer to the throne
Wind blows, shadows strain
Silent eyes weep in vain
Those lost, war torn
Another victim to the battle horde
Closer to the throne
Weaken, falter
Conform and despair
Furrow, prolong the inevitable ending
And be one
Faust!
Soldier!
Brother!
Warrior!
Cast off your fear!
Once under sigil
Night walks with me
I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
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
