Waspman I loved the demo, and this is even better! Pure classic heavy metal at its finest. Buy it! Favorite track: Kings Who Die.
Dunner

Dunner This album absolutely kills. Great vocal performances and amazing twin solos across the whole album. Combines the best facets of all NWOTHM. If you ever wondered what would happen if you combined "classical" technique and soaring vocals of Judas Priest, with melody and time changes of Iron Maiden and the speed of Mötorhead... Look no further! Favorite track: Fighting Spirits.

zauceboss One of the best NWOTHM releases. Trad metal songwriting taken to the next level, every song unique and interesting in its own right while still staying true. The Little Devils should absolutely be proud! Favorite track: All the Little Devils are Proud of Hell.

Deathstalker 05:57
Through the old and dreary world I ride, guided by my blade Black desire and fearsome lust An outlaw is free I’m not your hero Steal and kill to stay alive Thirst for no glory I ride alone and all beside me Meet their death I’m not your hero And I’m no fool I am the stalker the warrior of night Call out my name I spit violence and woe I am the stalker the warrior of night Sword-rage unparalleled I run to the fight No illusion will fear, I’m blind to your trickery Sword, chalice, and amulet Three powers I will destroy I’m not your hero And I bring death! I am the stalker the warrior of night Call out my name I spit violence and woe I am the stalker the warrior of night With rage unparalleled I fight to survive I’ll join the tournament of terror Spill red blood upon white sand I’m betrayed by my own comrade I flex my chest and snap his neck Wield the powers of creation I’ll put an end to Munkar’s reign I am the stalker, the warrior of night My thirst for violence, forever unbound I am the stalker, the warrior of night Sword-rage unparalleled I rise You’ll fear my name, I am the Deathstalker Thirst not for power but for your demise You’ll fear my name, I am the Deathstalker Into the night this outlaw shall ride

Riding hard Into the downtown city lights Cracking cans Soon we’ll all be spoiling for a fight Highway glare The boys are rolling out tonight Neon stare Now you better run and hide Don’t you know that the claw is the law? Yeah, we’re living free tonight Drinking hard in the long hot city nights Oh, you know the claw is the law Ain’t no laws tonight Metal on our side Ain’t no laws tonight When you’re on the claws Ain’t no laws tonight Metal on our side Going hard tonight Step aside or die Ain’t no laws tonight When you’re on the claws Don’t you know that the claw is the law? Yeah, we’re living free tonight Drinking hard in the long hot city nights Don’t you know that the claw is the law? Yeah, we’re living free tonight Drinking hard in the long hot city nights Yeah, you know the claw is the law

Cannons crashing through silent dawn Rolling thunder and the roar of guns Load your muskets and fix bayonets Over the edge no time to regret War’s most potent weapon In this bottle rests Fighting Spirits Fuel for glory Drink deep and fight Fighting spirits Fuel for glory Ride on and die Brave or drunk Chanting voices in the hall of hosts Towards the bloody dawn we raise a toast Swords drawn shields high “To victory!” Hauberks and capes stained in whiskey Through the centuries Dionysian rite Fighting Spirits Fuel for glory Drink deep and fight Fighting spirits Fuel for glory Ride on and die Brave or drunk Far beyond distant star lanes In the wild galactic north Solar cruisers in dry dock Cargo manifest re-charge Against alien nightmares Stand 10,000 steel-clad souls An extra ration of stim-synth for us all Fighting Spirits Fuel for glory Drink deep and fight Fighting spirits Fuel for glory fly on and die Brave or drunk

I am your humble servant Your proud and mighty thane But this dagger shines before me Tempted by weird sisters three To take the Crown and Glory Let my dark ambition free Impending fatal vision Stabs through reality The blood on my hands Begets more blood So it goes! Something wicked comes to greet me Yes! I am a god What’s granted can be torn away And so the dance goes on These hands have seized and sealed my fate Comes crashing down on me We’re all kings who die In this old foggy kingdom Something vile n rotten lurks My father’s death before me Haunts me like a grinning ghost I’ll wear the crown of madness To make my own bloodline bleed That one may smile and smile And still a villain be How noble is my reason? Infinite my faculty? Yet my own hesitation Sinks its icy grip on me I’ll stage a play of murder Pantomime fatality Reach out behind the curtain Stab through reality Yes! I am a god What’s granted can be torn away And so the dance goes on These hands have seized and sealed my fate Comes crashing down on me Yet vengeance hunts for thee Before the poison hits you will taste my steel We’re all kings who die No! No more a god No quarter asked, none given And so the dance goes on These hands have seized and sealed my fate Comes crashing down on me Yet vengeance hunts for thee Before the poison hits you will taste my steel We’re all kings who die

Unearthed on distant rock Relic of the low Transcend Malign intelligence Eclipse the Straumli Realm We fly from Relay’s fall With final Countermeasure Blessed by the Old One’s touch Pursued across the heavens In at the death Ten thousand ships fight side by side In at the death Fly on for our last hope The Blighter fleet arrayed Tracing our ultradrives Slow Zone, we can’t outrun All friendly ships, hail! Our message is received Survivors from Sjandra Kei What’s left of humanity Joins battle, guns at the ready In at the death Ten thousand ships fight side by side In at the death We’ll die for our last hope In at the death Ten thousand ships fight side by side In at the death We’ll turn the tide In at the Death The oath we’ve sworn will never die In at the Death Our glory will live on

Stranded by debt owed to the Crown So far away, she’s heaven bound On wings of steel back to the coast Out from the land of sand and ghosts Time for a drink got time to spare But weary traveller beware A friendly hand a smiling face Another round will seal your fate Each night you wake in fright And see his shining eyes This bullet is your ticket home At the bottom of the world A desert of wasted men The Devil loves his hell Go on, get up and place your bet lad Flip the coin now face your fate You know there’s no escape These are the magisters of sin A drunken laugh, the devil’s din I see her watching me A different taste for her debauchery Greeting the morning in a haze Another spectre pulled from the grave Hair of the dog a welcome bite Your lost in hell again tonight Each night you wake in fright And see his shining eyes This bullet is your ticket home At the bottom of the world A desert of wasted men The Devil loves his hell Ride out, deep into the outback Load up your gun and take your aim Tonight there’s no escaping the beast in every man Beneath the southern moonlight, something is rising Waking the beast in every man Go on mate, have another beer There’s nothing to fear, you’re one of us now Each night you wake in fright And see his shining eyes This bullet is your ticket home At the bottom of the world A desert of wasted men The Devil loves his hell Go on, have another pint mate At the bottom of the world A desert of wasted men The Devil loves his hell My home now Gaze out at the burning sunrise Blood runs over me Pours so freely Ruler in my own slice of hell

How Am I 04:59
Do you know how I felt When you left me alone? I was going insane Pain and lies, is all you left to me Blood red eyes, I’m wounded now for life So C'mon, C'mon, Let's hit the road Ride the wings of the wind And let’s learn to fly Side by Side, Eyes on eyes Pictures of my life Flashing lights, Breath of life How am I? I feel just fine… Crashed my car, Trashed a hotel room, All just thinking of you I still don't know how things had gone so wrong Rebel nights, eternal life behind Forever scars my heart & soul and mind Side by Side, Eyes on eyes Pictures of my life Flashing lights, Breath of life How am I? I feel just fine…

Antigone 04:38
(The Chorus:) Battered and broken He rots beneath the sun Traitor to Theban rule by decree he’ll decay Born under doomed sign A daughter of the damned (Antigone:) My brother’s burial His honour must live on For love, for duty For my family’s pride Your rule I’ll defy (The Chorus:) Daughter of Thebes Martyred by Fate Give your last breath Death is your weapon tonight No king by bloodshed A coward left to rule Wrapped in the robes of state She stands against the fool Law of Olympus Against the law of Man Immur’d in living tomb A morbid fate at hand (Haemon:) For love, for duty For the law divine Please lord, spare my bride (The Chorus:) ‘neath cover of darkness, The city mourns the girl Prophecy’s thread unfurled Daughter of Thebes Martyred by Fate Give your last breath Death is your weapon tonight Enter the blind man Prophet of the gods (The Prophet Tiresias:) Your sacrifice is tainted By her blood Go now release her Or we’ll pay the price Royal bloodline severed By noose and knife (The Chorus:) Daughter of Thebes Martyred by Fate Give your last breath Tragedy’s bloody price! Death is your weapon tonight

Far in the North On the banks of the old river Waits a town Of rogues and temptresses Place your bet And gamble all your riches In this poisoned land of plenty Upon the seven hills Neah palace of the priestly Lie the graves of forgotten victims Ancient heart The blood is running dark While spirits sing on through the trees One more night Pass another round Beneath the streetlamp glow In the Port of Saints Remember when you die, Though many years pass by, Your soul rests in the river Port of Saints You can travel ‘cross the world From coast of gold to sea of rage But the compass guides you home Each turning In the night with voices rising high Sing a song for all the old time Come take another swig And watch dear faces smiling Feel the river rotting in your veins Cool night air, the wind between the trees The North will call her saints to rest One more night Pass another round Beneath the streetlamp glow In the Port of Saints Remember when you die, Though many years pass by, Your soul rests in the river Port of Saints
