Echoes from the Tomb
01:49

Ullanumma ud , Ezeru asru sumsu Akkad
Baltu as sarrum, Ni dugnamtar, Ne simtum
In a time before time itself, in a land who’s name is only spoken in hushed whispers by sages and fools, lived a king. This is his tale…

The Skeleton King
02:53
|
|||
In the old town by full moon, old wives tell of a tale
Mad king who sought to bring, death on the realm
Once he ruled noble and beloved by all
Yet tragedy’s embrace the mad king would befall
Accursed rule conceived in blood, wrought in bone
Demonic influence seeps, the pained mind to hold
Serpent of the gods, reanimate this tormented soul
The king’s suffering would soon be felt by all
Spiralled to madness by the loss of his love
Shortly thereafter executions begun
Nobles and priests sought to placate his grief
Yet to his suffering, there would be no relief
Accursed rule…
To restore the warmth of life into thy tomb
I condemn this realm to eternal doom
To this realm of shadows
Bound long after death
Awake from cursed slumber
Drawing fetid breath
To restore the warmth of life
into my queen’s tomb
I consign thee mortals
to eternal doom
Under my rule…

Spectral Domain
04:20
|
|||
Hear the shrieks and the howls, and the razor thin growls
Of the things that go bump in the night
Unease starts to grow, as your neck starts to crawl
Premonition of incoming fright
Within the subconscious, alarming, ferocious,
Warning sinister threat yet unseen
Hair stands on end, as your breath quickens and
Neurons poised up to fight or to flee
Survival horror, sanity fades
Instinct takes over, no time for games
Spectral Domain
Since the beginning of time, in the long hours of night
Primeval instincts take hold
Decipher the patterns lurking in the darkness
A threat from the shadows unfolds
A flicker, a sound, as your chest starts to pound,
Hair stands on end like a string
Your skin starts to shiver as your pulse starts to quicken
Now strike or be struck by the unseen.

Bound by the Lich
03:21
|
|||
Behold the blade in frost it mourns
Gripping death, reaping souls
Runes carved in necromantic speak
Reanimate the armies for the lich
Transgressor
Lich King
Not quite living, not quite dead
Baneful existence dark lord of the damned
Scepter of serpents, a scourge unleashed
Claim the risen souls for the lich
Transgressor
Lich King

Lament
01:30
|
|||
Atop the mound by the castle walls
The banshee mourns alone
A spectral figure, memory of old
The banshee weeps alone
Cannot recall who she once was
A queen so fair and just
Yet she breathes the air of betrayal
By the king who was once her love
Kings, queens, cursed kin
A sin not hers to own
Atop the hill, haunted scream
Sends chills down to the bone
As the banshee mourns alone
Roaming on the blackened sands
Seeking solace, tarnished sense
Only one thought in her doom-filled thoughts
Of peace found in revenge
Kings, queens, cursed kin
A sin not hers to hold
Atop the hill, haunted scream
Sends chills down to the bone
Anguish, grief, cursed dreams
A fate far worse than death
Suffering, the banshee screams
For peace found in revenge
The banshee seeks revenge…

Flight of the Banshee
03:51
|
|||
From the castle keep
Ear piercing scream
Chills run down your spine
Banshee taking flight
Summoned from the grave
Peace denied by fate
Robbed of final rest
Preicament worse than death
Awakens from tormented dream
Unleashing an anguished filled scream
Fly, Banshee queen of war
Spectral wings now soar
Spirit force unleashed, the undead cry for peace
Fly, transcend time and space
Manifest of hate
Spirits mourning rise, dread talons set to strike
Cursed to debt not owed
Set by her betrothed
Afterlife not met
Doomed to roam the land
No death can dethrone
A queen by fate scorned
Haunt of vengeance set
Wings of hatred spread
Awakens from tormented dream
Unleashing an anguished filled scream
Fly, Banshee queen of war
Spectral wings now soar
Spirit force unleashed, the undead cry for peace
Fly, transcend time and space
Manifest of hate
Spirits mourning rise, dread talons set to strike

King, of the dead, befouler be damned
Tonight, it all comes to an end
On this night, the undead unite
Under the banshee shriek cry
For revenge, to lift this curse
To break the lich king’s foul spell
Ashes to ashes, for all that is just
This kingdom shall crumble to dust
Master of the underworld, we’re no longer pawns,
To your machinations of life forevermore,
We march on the road to hell, with good intentions paved
Hear the cries of the damned, longing for the grave
Grave of salvation, reanimate redemption
Eternal rest won’t be denied, solace of the tomb
We seek what was taken, oblivion’s warm womb
Boney limbs wield rusted swords, who’s scabbards long decayed
Mournful cries from tattered lungs, calling for the grave
Grave of salvation, reanimate redemption so
Fight
The undead for vengeance now
Fight
Cries of the accursed rip the night

Lord of Ganzer
04:42
|
|||
Laughing and crying
Killing the undying
No road to redemption
Unholy procession
My queen now she loathes me
My armies turned on me
Anur en Ganzer
Horizon lord darkness
Grief counseled poorly
Only one path before me
To undo the destruction
I must succumb to corruption
Return to the temple
The serpent now beckons
Strike one more bargain
I resign to the darkness
To thy embrace I resign
Thou may take all that is mine
Wishes granted did come true
In twisted form warped by you
Demonic djin for one last time
I invoke thee, take my life
|

Reaper of Kur
05:50
|
|||
You seek another bargain
Restore the souls fouled by thy plan
A path towards atonement
The price must be met
Souls claimed by the master
Can only be repaid in kind
Forever in his servitude
You shall abide
Gaze beyond the pale horizon
Behold eternity awaits
Time no longer holds a meaning
Forever these waters you shall sail
Claim all their sons and daughters
Reap the harvest of souls
Take their life force and essence
Kur hungers for more
Temple of the serpent
Where Enlil you did fist deny
Return there to be baptised
Reborn as death’s scythe
A king without a kingdom
Now minion of the demon lord
An eternity of servitude
In blood and bone wrought
Gaze…

Gates of Namtar
05:58
|
|||
Mighty warriors take the field
Plains of death their fate revealed
Duel the ferryman, earn their place
To cross beyond Namtar’s gates
Celestial blades, in eternal strife
Thunder cracks when steel meets scythe
Reaper’s grin, a mirthless gaze
Lightning cracks as souls are razed
Eyes of death, mirror of decay
Oblivion the price to pay
In eternal, battle of will
Earn their place in Eridian fields
Reaper swings and the ground shakes
Each glancing blow spews putrid plague
Dodge the attack, escape the realm
Valiant warriors take the helm
Sail, through the gates of Namtar
To the garden of the Gods
In Eridian fields glory awaits
Celestial blades fight for glory and honor, celestial blades fight for glory in death
Sail, through the gates of Namtar
To the garden of the Gods
In Eridian fields glory awaits….
