The culmination of three bloody years
The holy city obscured by tears
Gazing at the heart of Christendom
The end of our crusade has come
Under its stone shell, reaching to the heavens
The crusaders built great engines of war
Colossal towers rose from the sand
Saracen eyes watching from the walls
Horns rang out one dawn
A siege tower was gone
Godfrey had deceived them
The beast poised at a weaker wall
Lumbering forward
Struck by raining fire
It would not light
The Franks poured into the walls
In the name of Our Lord
Slay them all
Our swords guided by God
Creating a Heaven on Earth
God wills it!
The defenders fled in fear - Knowing their reputation
The Crusaders gave no quarter - Revelling in violence
Screams of women and children - Indiscriminate slaughter
They leapt from the walls- Revelling in the blood
As the slaughter began - Killed them as they ran
Wading through blood -The city bleeds for us
Praying at Its holy site - Cleansing our blood-stained minds
God wills it
They fled.
3 guys and all that sound? Yup that's Storms of Embers doing their usual thing. It's a shame there's only 2 tracks up here but, their full album is available on their site. Go treat your ears. Man Made Origin
Apnoe is an album which comes too rarely that comes with literally everything. Clean and harsh vocals, melodic sections and far more that really ensures that this underrated album goes unmissed. Man Made Origin
This Island, Our Funeral is one of those albums that's almost impossible to sell in just 200 characters. There's too much to discuss so, we'll leave this down to the lucky, tasteful listener. Man Made Origin
