Among black clouds we fly, in an endless wave of fear
inside the maze of thoughts the light will disappear
a truth so merciless, so cold, ever so near
night is unbound, embrace her softly now my dear
Breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, mysteries of fate
breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, death you can’t escape
The reaper walks beside you, holding your cold hand
squeeze it tight, he’s your sincere and faithful friend
all we do will be forgotten as we sink
ensorcelled by the promise of eternal bless
Breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, mysteries of fate
breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, death you can’t escape
“Come with us, those curtains now shall burn
be with us, beyond the seven veils”
Approaching are faceless angels without wings
caressing my pale face, at the burial of my dreams
how do they know the hidden fears of my closed eyes?
A fear so real as the void of christian lies
Breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, mysteries of fate
breath the dust of time, we were born too late
breathe the dust of time, death you can’t escape

Dream Metal

Of misty mountains you’re the king,
of hopes and loves, which are unseen…
You hold the scepter and the crown,
but in silent sadness your thoughts are drowned…
Look behind, no one’s left alone in tears
the path is endless, the land has no frontiers
to sweat, to crave, to search for desires long time gone
the only enemy, reality, standing tall
Catch your dream, is it true and made of steel? Now come…
Come up and see...it’s high up there, but you fall…
The sun’s no longer there, but come on, the night is long
the eternal dark, the truth is made of seven notes
Dream, dream, dream metal, forgetting all your fears
dream, dream, dream metal, ancient scrolls revelead
Dream, dream, dream metal, forgetting all your fears
dream, dream, dream metal, ancient scrolls revelead
Dare like Icarus, his flight was not in vain
don’t wake up, a clash of swords on Morpheus’ plains
catch your dream, it is true and made of steel, now come…
The eternal dark, the truth is made of seven notes
Dream, dream, dream metal, forgetting all your fears
dream, dream, dream metal, ancient scrolls revelead
Dream, dream, dream metal, forgetting all your fears
dream, dream, dream metal, ancient scrolls revelead
You hear it now? The wizard’s call….
Dream on, dream on, dream on, above the clouds beyond…

Woman of the Dark

She left us here alone, a sorrowful black hole
she went away without a sign…
In misery we dwell, your voice a distant spell
oh is she calling from above?
Where the answers hide, in our memories abide
how many tears we cried for you…
Forever young you fly, white goddess of the night
oh will we ever meet again?
Fly, fly, woman of the dark, into neverending night, far away from this world…
Fly, fly, woman of the dark, into neverending night, far away from this world…
On spring horizons sailed, lands of uknown grey fate
watch over us, we will come home
red twilights never fade, on this island your crusade
to be reborn through endless grief
Fly, fly, woman of the dark, into neverending night, far away from this world…
Fly, fly, woman of the dark, into neverending night, far away from this world…

In the night we search the light of day
far beyond is our quest for sanity
in midnight skies we keep on flying aimlessly
come forth to sunrise, keepers of the flame
What we crave is a comet left to burn
deep in our desires, never to be tamed
heads held high until the moon is laid to rest
behind the mountains, she’s waiting in the mist
Catch the endless dawn
way to bright and way too far
catch the endless dawn
on your hopes you can’t count on
Catch the endless dawn
way to bright and way too far
catch the endless dawn
on your hopes you can’t count on
Rise again, dragons of fear you ride
rise again, our master will not save your life
on fields of doom longings will be quenched
gates of nostalgia are opening again
Catch the endless dawn
way to bright and way too far
catch the endless dawn
on your hopes you can’t count on

Awake the Enchanter
05:13
|

|
A misty morning lies ahead of him
his tears are frozen by the wind
he lies in halls forgotten by the lords of time
deep within his mind, a vision crystal clear
his sleep of centuries will last forevermore
his icy breath will haunt our blackest dreams
some of us are hoping for his eyes to see
the madness of our world, our need to set him free
Awake, enchanter! All these lies for you to see…
awake, enchanter! Again your realm shall be…
Oh please, enchanter! Unveil their sinful deeds…
Awake, enchanter! Our procession you shall lead
It’s night again but nothing changes for him
an eternal sculpture of the dark
strange evil powers breed inside of him
whispering unholy sorceries
Awake, enchanter! All these lies for you to see…
awake, enchanter! Again your realm shall be…
Oh please, enchanter! Unveil their sinful deeds…
Awake, enchanter! Our procession you shall lead
Mysteries and secrecies, floating in time and space
will the stars now take revenge in a land where greed prevails?
A wisdom buried deep beneath the sands of time
the enchanter stares at you, subconscious thoughts aligned
they will never take his pure immortal soul
gather now, you servants, heed the call

Fears Like Towers
04:19
|

|
Tonight we keep on hoping, tonight we drink our tears
remember those once fallen, those young and magic years
awake, the mirror’s dark, your face fading away
you can’t recall those powers, those fascinating days
Fears like towers, a deferred cry
fears like towers, will forever fade and die
fears like towers, won’t you get back?
fears like towers, an illusion dressed in black
Staring at the blood horizon, white candles melting away
those friends now laying frozen, just blurred grey memories
Just let ‘em go, just let ‘em go…
Fears like towers, a deferred cry
fears like towers, will forever fade and die
fears like towers, won’t you get back?
fears like towers, an illusion dressed in black
Just let ‘em go, just let ‘em go…

She's Cold
05:18
|

|
Watch out! Hear her calling…
The graveyard queen, pale white she rules the night
come on! Ain’t no fooling…
Can’t you sense her freezing touch of fear and blight?
Beware, she’ll dance the night away…
Hey you! Don’t stop walking…
Hidden in the crypt, seducing you with fright
she’s there, is she talking?
Now love and death in sinful peace unite
Beware, she’ll dance the night away…
She’s so cold, words untold, far beyond the endless skies
she’s so cold, now behold her evil and mysterious eyes
Now! The bell is tolling…
When midnight strikes, to her pale knees I crawl
hear my warning, let this cruel fate drown into mourning
one peaceful breath and to new gods we’ll pray
Beware, she’ll dance the night away…
She’s so cold, words untold, far beyond the endless skies
she’s so cold, now behold her evil and mysterious eyes
Let those whispers fill the halls, let the dreadful thoughts invade your mind, she’s not there anymore, just a shape of something from the other side…
She’s so cold, words untold, far beyond the endless skies
she’s so cold, now behold her evil and mysterious eyes

about
Formed in 2018, Italy’s TEMPTRESS was founded by members of BUNKER 66, Children of Technology, Gargoyle, and Boia with the intent of giving free rein to their passion for the dreamiest and most melancholic heavy metal bands of the ‘80s – cult names such as Proud and Randy as well as the eternal Heavy Load and Gotham City, among others – without forgetting the darkness of such masters as Mercyful Fate, all seasoned with a genuine obsession for catchy and melodic choruses. Their journey into dreams began with the two-song The Orb 7” for DYING VICTIMS in 2019, which was later compiled onto the label’s Dying Victims vol. 2: Heavy Metal Attack CD collection in 2023.
Now, the sleepers have awoken, and arrive from dreamland bearing their debut album: Catch the Endless Dawn. Truly titled, Catch the Endless Dawn sees TEMPTRESS moving measuredly, daresay silkily, across soft-haze heavy metal high on moody melody, brisk but never busy in their gait. The band’s muse is most definitely OLD metal, but there’s subtlety and an almost-hushed sense of class to their songwriting and execution that elevates the record beyond the skinny-headband & flares hordes: the former always seems pensive even when the mid-tempo pulse picks up into a relatively reined-in gallop, and the latter similarly utilizes restraint in its favor whilst conveying the requisite amount of energy. Likewise, while the realm of dreams runs parallel to the realm of fantasy, TEMPTRESS possess a palatably more delicate side compared to the D&D side of traditional metal, (dream)weaving something both emotional and hypnotic – truly, the “Dream Metal” of which they so sing here. Thus, the aforementioned influences are apt, but so are the likes of early ‘80s Rainbow, April Wine, or even Blue Öyster Cult’s unsung dream-classic Club Ninja. Wake up and Catch the Endless Dawn!

Having set an amazing track record until now, we definitely know what we can expect of them at this point. This album also does not disappoint and they actually do deliver a bit of an update to their formula here. This LP has a very upbeat and warm feel and is catchy as hell with so many legit sing-along tracks.

I am absolutely elated to have found this band. The music is pure magic, plain and simple, I feel completely captivated by it. Every song paints such a rich painting in my head, the vocal harmonies and melodies could bring a tear into my eye. It's incredibly hard to pick a single song from this album as my favourite, but there is something about Ruined Garden which rips my heart to shreds in the best of ways, something about it feels so appropriately beautiful and ancient.
