Bludgeoned by fate and smashed down into the earth
The vow-taker vanquished by the dark
Cast down into the the depths, taken into the pit
His soul consumed by the maw
Chorus:
Your wish has been denied
No second chance at life
No one will hear your cries
So say goodbye
Our last resort was cast to no avail
Our final spell was doomed to fail
Chorus
SOLO: Corwin
SOLO: Tucker
Now we descend, into howling abyss
The hordes of demons lie in wait
On borrowed time, healing amiss
We smash into the burning gates

The Oath
04:50
|

|
We find ourselves in this ancient place
At the altar of remembrance
We bear the torch of an ancient craft
And we carry it with reverence
Chorus:
Through all the ages we have carried on
To gather here in this moment
Through complications we will find a way
And swear we will convene again
We find ourselves in this place again
While telling tales of legends
We pass along all the ancient ways
Preserving them for ages
Chorus
Solo: Tucker
We find ourselves in this place once more
Remembering what transpired
Reflecting back on the deeds we’ve done
And setting out again

Divine Smite
05:03
|
|||
|
Burning ash-filled skies now stand astride
Twisted peaks and caverns deep
Where fallen heroes lie
Drawing weapons, we dive in the fray
A slash of steel has found its mark and a bloody spray
Holding shining steel up high
Righteous bolts crack from the sky
Chorus:
Chant the ancient rites, scream them to the skies
Power of divine, from forgotten times
Force at your command, cast from righteous hand
Demons cast aside, slain by holy smite
Demonic priests croak mantras from the depths
Blackened tongues and cracking lungs
Call forth with labored breaths
Rushing forward, we cut through the fray
To silence their unholy prayer and still the blight’s decay
Demons scatter, struck with fright
Holy lightning splits the night
Chorus
Solo: Tucker

The First Loss
01:17
|
|||
|
“Ruin surrounds him.
Ruin becomes him.
Cinders meet snow
The smokes rises
A final cry from his dying father’s lungs
‘Run’
Ruin behind him.
Ruin becomes him.
Tears and blood
Fury and loss”

The Final Rage
03:40
|
|||
|
Down from the peaks he came to seek
The man who stole away his life
Through countless trials he has endured
And now his vengeance takes its course
Chorus:
Within his mind there lies a rite
To summon violence, the spirit of the storm
Invoke the pain, think of the grief
Call back the agony, the power to transform
Stalking the ruins of fallen keeps
To find his fabled mortal foe
Through countless battles he has endured
And found the man that he calls prey
Chorus
Like iron forged through time
By vengeance made
His sworn foe lies broken
His deeds repaid
Solo: Tucker

Upon A Bloody Shore
04:04
|

|
Within the battle my fate is bound
My sword in hand, our ships ran aground
The waning sun departs with its light
Descending darkness, a premature night
Within the madness, my mind twists and spins
My comrades dying for two nation’s sins
My heart beats fast, as smoke chokes the sky
And through it all, I long for the sight of
Chorus:
Home, where the hearth is burning bright
And the horns raise every night
I’ve got to survive, and fight my out
It’s the only way I will see home
The clash of swords, the army descends
Upon us now, we make our last stand
We test our might in this hopeless plight
Our blades are blunted, ground down from the fight
The vanquished sun looms red through the smoke
Our burning vessels, the flames now we stoke
A choking haze, the true fog of war
So through the flames, I fight so that I may see
Chorus
All is gone, laid to waste
The battle’s won, the sky I face
Oh gods of war, my time has come
So ferry me
Chorus
Solo: Tucker
Solo: Corwin

Detect Evil
04:13

|
Evil in our midst
One of our kind, the powers twist
Who could it be, this changing form?
None now can we trust
Chorus:
In the darkness, it is waiting
But behind which pair of eyes?
In each glance it’s looming
The stalker could even be me
Fear and distrust are setting in
Marked ‘round the torches
By nervous grins
Who could it be?
Whose form did it take?
A deadly choice to make
Chorus
Or you, or you
It could even be you
It might even be all of us
Who taint the halls of life
Nature’s mockery, abomination stalking me
Maybe we should burn it all before it’s too late
Solo: Corwin
Traitors in arms
Vile betrayers
Cursed, gripped by charms
My damned slayers
Chorus

The City Of Brass
05:43
|
|||
|
Among the sands of ancient lore
Stands a city forevermore
Its shining walls are gleaming bright
Casting its power through the endless night
Chorus:
We must go to the place where brass claws the sky
The place where hope goes to die
Structures of alloy with demons residing in
Assailants await from every side
Chorus
Solo: Tucker
Solo: Corwin
Carted away in a searing cage
We find our comrade stolen away
Descending further to chasm of death
A perilous battle waiting ahead

Power of the gods hiding in the earth
Beneath our feet, guarded by the depths
Descends the heroes to retrieve the flame
To purge the land of unholy plague
We seek the ever-burning pyre
To burn the demons of the Spire
The Frenzied Fire
Chorus:
Golden might, burns all in sight
Unrestrained and blazing through the night
Try to survive, don’t lay down your life
And purge the world with Holy Cleansing Fire
Back in the village, we’ve fulfilled our quest
Heading to the inn for much ended rest
But ‘neath the surface, a new threat lies
Beset on all sides by demonic eyes
We hold the ever-burning pyre
We’ve burned the demons of the Spire
The Frenzied Fire
Chorus
Solo: Corwin
Solo: Tucker
Solo: Corwin
Solo: Tucker
We feed the ever-burning pyre
We’re now the demons of the Spire
The Frenzied Fire

“Mortal men fear to tread
In caverns humid and dark
Killing and gnashing endlessly
Under their very feet
Wandering in the blackness
And searching for any respite
Now departed from light
Taunted by unseen voice
Sought
Bearing their burdens from life
Loading down their backs
Over burning sands
Over jagged peaks
Driven by their sorrow”

The Ninth Level
05:48

Lost to the hells, our friend remains
Behind the gates,they lie in wait
A mission for his very fate
Yet fear remains we are too late
How many miles through this land
Corruption chokes on stirring sands
This fucker's life is in our hands
We cannot fail
Lords gathering at the altar
Unholy words pass their lips
A feast will grant them wicked power
A soul is offered to the pits
Chorus:
Descending to the Ninth Level
The darkest layer of hell
Fighting through the demons and devils
Through the might of blade and of spell
Across the planes and crowned with flames
Echo the shrieks of the insane
Promise of death and endless pain
So much to lose, yet much to gain
Forgotten tunnel at the wall
Straight to the dungeons we now crawl
O, countless horrors haunt these halls
Where demon lords will fill their maws
Lords are grinning at the altar
Unholy words parch their lips
The feast to grant them wicked power
The soul now destined for the pits
Chorus
Solo: Corwin
Within the chamber, soul we sought
Is quick consumed and turns to rot
Our holy quest now seems for naught
All hope is lost, we will be caught
Demonic voice reaches our ears
An offer cutting through the tears
Arzab the howler jailed for years
Into our band he volunteers
Lords sated at the altar
Drooling licking at their lips
The feast has brought them wicked power
A soul is now lost to the pits
Chorus

RAVENING IRON
by Eternal Champion
supported by 66 fans who also own “Adventure Two”
Perfect entry-level trad heavy metal. This genre never clicked with me no matter who I listened to. Iron Maiden, Atlantean Kodex, you name it. I had just begun warming to Khemmis, and this might have just made me a fan. If you're like me and most traditional heavy metal does nothing for you, listen to this. You won't regret it. An epic journey, front to back.
