With All My Might

Born with the fire in a skyless night
Kill ourselfs to live there´s only one way to live
And I´m survivor with magic in my hands
In god´s name Iam ready to fight
Dark lord there is no way to run
I have sworn vengeance
You kill my friends and my sister
You have to pay the price
In for a kill – the beast must bleed
To the war – my sword lights the sky
Riding into the battle
Rising with hunger and fear
Sailing over the sea
Marching – with all my might
Year after year I dreamed of this day
To many human died out in the fields
The souls of my friends shine over the land
You tell me you have never a chance
Dark lord I never give up
I fight till I die feel my might you can´t move
You have to pay the price
In for a kill – the beast must bleed
To the war – my sword lights the sky
Riding into the battle ………
You can´t wait thousand years
So come out and fight
Your way ends here so die by my sword
And I´m survivor with magic in my hands
In gods name Iam ready to fight
In for a kill – the beast must bleed
To the war – my sword lights the sky
Riding into the battle

When you can´t sleep at night
And you wonder why
Without any friends and you wanna die
I´ve been wasting time, you´ve been chasing me
Out of my mind to set me free
Turn the music loud and clear
In the fire light you´re shining
Everybody felt alright, bound in leather
Until the morning light
Creature of the deep night
When darkness reached across the sky
You didn´t have to run from me
Time has come to set you free
Die, die in the night you better climb
High into heaven
Die, die in the night you better climb
High into heaven
The dawn of darkness
Endless nightmares
Is getting into your brain
A bad dream, turn on the light
And hear my scream tonight
Creature of the deep night
When darkness reached across the sky
You didn´t have to run from me
Time has come to set you free
Die, die in the night you better climb
High into heaven
Die, die in the night you better climb
High into heaven
Evil´s comin´ fight with fire
There is nothing you can´t do about it
Welcome to my world
Welcome to hell
Creature of the deep night…….
Die, die in the night you better climb
High into heaven………

Down In The Streets

You know seven people
Lived for years to fight, for their land
For a country where they are fighting
For liberty
To left and right where hills so high
Like heaven but not blue
The hills where red like blood from
Seven fighters for the good
The ravine would be like the hell
The ravine a street and we are
Down in the streets
People will die
In hell to be free
Down in the streets
In the middle of the storm
They stay hard, together against the dark
Snow is fallin´down, the wind is blowin´
Colder than ice
The ravine would be like the hell
The ravine a street and we are
Down in the streets…….
The water behind them
The fire in future
Shoot from the hills
There wasn´t a chance to runaway
From the place, so they died like in heaven
The ravine would be like the hell
The ravine a street and we are
Down in the streets…….

Out Of Law

Oh when the night comes
The curious thing will happen
Happen in the sky
Backstreet fighting, slayers in the neck
You have to be the best
Or we kick your ass tonight
We are out of law
We are out of law
We are out of law
We are out of law
Assault the people
When they don´t devine
Take by force and hear their screams
Alright
We are out of law
We are out of law
We are out of law
We are out of law

Craze And Hunger

What did I say when you played mind games
What did I say about you
Tell me the thoughts that are in your head
Tell me what I do wrong
Tonight I´m crazy – I´m heading for breakdown
Tonight I´m hungry – tonight I fight to survive
There are so many words I should say
Some things will never change
When I wanted you but you turned away
The lights all went down
Tonight I´m crazy – I´m heading for breakdown
Tonight I´m hungry – tonight I fight to survive
Craze and hunger
Craze and hunger
Craze and hunger
You ride with the angels mountain high
Yeah in the night when it turns to daylight
Close your eyes and you will see
There are so many things I want to give back to you
But the night goes on and on
Craze and hunger……..

about
One of the best hard-luck stories in the rich history of German heavy metal, NOT FRAGILE were originally active from 1980 to 1990. During that decade, the band released a couple demos, an EP, and an almost-album-length mini-album – and the requisite compilation appearances, which was mandatory during the ‘80s – and had even recorded a proper debut album, only for that first full-length to be posthumously released in various territories with confusing titles. They would eventually re-form in the mid ‘90s and remain active for nearly two decades, but the demand for the original NOT FRAGILE era has only grown as the years passed.
Feeling duty call, RELICS FROM THE CRYPT arrive with long-overdue reissues of NOT FRAGILE’s Who Dares Wins mini-album and their intended debut album, One Way to Glory, both remastered: the former adjusted for vinyl by Journey Into Eternity Studios, and the latter a whole new remaster by Patrick Engel at Temple of Disharmony.
Originally released in 1988 after being passed around by a couple labels, Who Dares Wins was a rough ‘n’ raucous slice of German speed / power metal emblematic of that era. With surprising heaviness if not thrashiness, the band’s 27-minute mini-album bore contemporaneous influence from the likes of Running Wild and Helloween nearby and Helstar and Liege Lord overseas. Nevertheless, NOT FRAGILE had the songwriting – and energy – to put them over, with the record’s production sounding particularly professional despite its meager budget. The following year, the band would record their ill-fated debut album, One Way to Glory. As presaged by its title, the lyrics shifted slightly toward more fantastical realms – the band did have an amazingly DIY castle backdrop for the mini’s “With All My Might” video, after all – and the thrashiness dialed back, but energy remained abundant here. The band’s execution actually got even sharper as the riffing became a bit brighter and more melodic, and the cleaner production brought a triumphant gleam to NOT FRAGILE whilst sacrificing no heaviness. Taken as a snapshot of the times, One Way to Glory simultaneously sounded out of date and ahead of the times, as power metal was about to have a resurgence across Europe during the mid ‘90s. However, their version of power metal surely bore the medieval stamp of the ‘80s, and was all the better for it. Sad, then, that their debut album would only see posthumous release in 1992 and 1993 as Hard to Be Alive and Lost in a Dream, respectively, alongside a mishmash of other ‘80s tracks.

Violent Creed Of Vengeance
by Smouldersupported by 15 fans who also own “Who Dares Wins”
The new heirs to the epic metal throne! A flurry of both speedy and doomy riffs, melodic guitar interplay, an inventive rhythm section, and haunting vocals merge into a coherent whole with depth, ferocity, and grace. Up the Hammers and Hail the Goddess!

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.

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.
