Alchemy

|
Deep through forests, a wizard makes his pace
Searching for ingredients to immortalize his race
To craft a brew, one of which he'll share with few
Laughing at the gods, mortality disgraced
He slinks through shadows in the pits of caverns deep
In the belly of a mountain, where the Goblins creep
Casting spells where unholy demons dwell
Searing, freezing, arcane tricks, death has come to reap
He's conjuring flame to vanquish his foes
Scrying into planes and unearthly realms
Tearing through notes in pursuit of his goals
Peering down orbs into blasphemous hells
Spiraling up the staircase, the wizard now ascends
Retrieving mystic glassware, his work begins again
Crushing, mixing, stirring, pouring, drinking all around
Concocting a potion, to death no longer bound!
Crossing the dunes, burning white sands
A valley of bones in his wake
Calimport lies, a den of deceit
Siphoning blood and the venom of snakes
Wading through slime, trudging through muck
The mage exhuming their graves
Catacombs rot, plague ridden ghouls
Extracting their tongues with the tip of his blade
He's conjuring flame to vanquish his foes
Scrying into planes and unearthly realms
Tearing through notes in pursuit of his goals
Peering down orbs into blasphemous hells
Spiraling up the staircase, the wizard now ascends
Retrieving mystic glassware, his work begins again
Crushing, mixing, stirring, pouring, drinking all around
Concocting a potion, to death no longer bound!
Orcish teeth, Kobold feet, Goblin nails, Dragon scales
Wyvern stings, Harpy wings, Gorgon eyes, swarming flies
Golem flesh, Oozing mesh, Griffon tails, Banshee wails
Ogre lungs, Mimic tongues, Lich's breath, a pinch of death...

Echoes in the Dark
02:51
|
|||
|
Far beneath the realms of men
Remains a land unseen
Demonic Drow and unholy beasts
Worshiping death and spider queens
The brains of slaves, forgotten souls
Consumed, controlled, destroyed
Psionics restrain free willed thoughts
Locking their minds in eternal void
Echoes... In the dark
The Shadows... Come to life
Putrid black eyes, unyielding thoughts
Tentacles writhe on their skin
Cartilage nails claw brains of the dead
Claiming the weak from the caverns within
High above a pool of brine
Dreaming of death and decay
The elder seeks out through tendrils of fear
The brain eater hears its commands to obey
Echoes... In the dark
The Shadows... Come to life
Gripping their hearts, controlling through fear
A despot on high deploys methods severe
Devourer hacks, frothing with bile
Seldom and few is a creature so vile
Torturing gnomes, goblins and men
Nothing escapes it's nefarious den
Searing their flesh with malicious desire
Filtering screams with psionics and fire
Echoes... In the dark
The Shadows...

The Dragonshield
03:13
|
|||
|
Smog and fire, swelling through the den
Forty thousand Dragonspawn are rising up again
Fear begets, the kobolds and their kin
One among the fodder will be chosen to lead them
Clear his path, visions in the flame
Ancient cities far from home his people must reclaim
Through the roost, summoning the horde
Raising high the sword which the dragon bestowed him
Death! Destruction and waste his path
Ash of the vanquished succumb to it's wrath
Fear! Might of the undying wyrm
Screams of the slaughtered still ring as they burn
Creeping through mines, dungeons and halls
Swarming the caverns of Dwarves, Pillaging!
Breaking their will, butchering Gnomes
Preaching the dragon to weed out all heresy
Marching through swamps, raising the flag
Follow command of the black, Dragonshield!
Plotting control, within his grasp
Reigning supreme on the throne, claiming their lives
Strike the forge, melting down the scales
Fragments of the dragon hide are crafted to impale
Arm the pack, shielding those with faith
Gaining on the enemies confining their lost god
Fang and claw rending bloody wounds
Bloodshed on forgotten fields determining their doom
Crash the gates, carving into flesh
Ravens claim the eyes of a dead population
Death! Destruction and waste his path
Ash of the vanquished succumb to it's wrath
Fear! Might of the undying wyrm
Screams of the slaughtered still ring as they burn

Maze Controller
02:32
|
|||
|
Strike the flint, lighting up the hall
Circled by the dead, decomposing thralls
Bard plays the strings, fighter taking heads
Master of the crawl fills the party with dread
Labyrinth running down twisting spirals through the earth
The foulest creatures bide hoarding treasure beyond worth
Peering from the screen, laying down the law
Scanning over tomes and the board
Into the depths, stealing your soul
Magics at work in the deep far beyond your control, rolling the die
Dealing the cards of your fate, bleeding you dry
Throw for death, rolling to survive
Pleading for success, failure is contrived
Bracing for the blow as the polyhedrons fall
Standing at the edge of your life
Into the depths, stealing your soul
Magics at work in the deep far beyond your control, rolling the die
Dealing the cards of your fate, bleeding you dry at his command
Critically hit, Maze Controller crushing your will, makes you submit

Natural 20
00:59
|
|||
|
Gathered 'round the table, preparing all your dice
Shifting in your seat as you crawl towards a fight
Maze Controller calls, it's time for you to roll
Fear in your eyes as you vie for control
Die! See a natural 20 hit the board
Kill! Shattered victims falling on your sword
Severing their heads, the carnage now unfolds
Extremities are taken from your foes as you scream
Die! Massacring goblins by the horde
Kill! Cutting into bloody mounds of gore
Corpses in your wake, tightening your grip
Blades glisten red as the blood begins to drip

Last Call
03:13
|
|||
|
The tavern is bustling, smell of mead in the air
Drunken Dwarves and Half-Orcs are giving you the glare
You put down your pint, hang your cloak up on the wall
The bar's about to close last call into the brawl
Bodies are flying, plates smash against the floor
A drunken wizard opens an inter-planar door
Atronachs flood in and start moshing all around
Intoxicated bodies pile up into a mound
Come down, it's time for the next round
Many an adventurers been pummeled to the ground
Who will be the last one to black out and fall?
The knuckles keep on flyin' as the barkeep yells, Last Call!
Dragonborn or Ogrekin, ask me if I give a fuck
I'll knock any fucking thing, looks like you need a potion of luck
I've got ten gallons of mead, going straight into my brain
This bar brawl's growing out of hand this party's getting insane
Fisticuffs with a dozen Gnomes, break their little teeth in snap all their bones
Slowly, the vanquished let out their groans
You grab a keg and let mead flow as your force yourself to swallow
Broken ribs won't stop you from coming back again tomorrow
Come down, it's time for the next round
Many an adventurers been pummeled to the ground
Who will be the last one to black out and fall?
The knuckles keep on flyin' as the barkeep yells, Last Call!

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellripper
supported by 17 fans who also own “+1 Demo”
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.
