lyrics

The sword of destiny was broken in your hand
The quest was over before it ever began
This world is ending and the key to its defense
Fell to ruin
Burning pieces in the sands of the wasteland

So now you ride into war with a scabbard
You must split their skulls in two with a scabbard
The fate of earth depends on you
The sheath of the blade
Is all that remains

Your horse was blinded in the rain of arrow fire
Your men fled into the night
Though none escaped alive
The lord of agony and chaos closes in from the mountain
Melts your armor from your skin with his red eyes

And still you ride into war with a scabbard
You must run their bodies through with a scabbard
The fate of earth depends on you and a scabbard
The sheath of the blade
Is all that remains

So you ride to your doom
Though you ride to your doom
The futility never stopped thee

Now you ride into war with a scabbard
You will split their skulls in two with a scabbard
The fate of earth depends on you and a scabbard
The sheath of the blade
Is all that remains

Doublegeddon

After a 6000-year hiatus, two ancient Sumerian demigods have emerged from the 7th dimension. After a thorough 5-minute survey of all modern human forms of communication, they determined that only one stood out as worthy, and thus, they formed a fuckin' heavy metal band. ... more

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka
