Heir Apparent - "The Door" (lyric video)

No one cares what you say, doesn't matter anymore
Just go on about your day, just another closed door

You can't seem to figure out, the rhyme or the reason
To what this life's about, or the turn of the season

You're searching for answer
Locked behind the door
You're searching for the answer
Ohhhhh

We hold the key to what's inside
We hold the key to everything they try to hide

Your meaningless arguments
The who and the why
Won't go without consequence
Spreading the lies

Weaponized order, doctrines of peace
Culling the weak, when will we learn?

You're searching for the answer
Locked behind the door
Searching for the answer
We can't take it any more

We hold the key - to what's inside
We hold the key - to everything they try to hide
We hold the key - to everything we've been denied
We hold the key
To unlock the door and open our minds
Removing the boundaries and leaving the past behind

We're searching for the answers
Just open up the door

Στην είδηση της δισκογραφικής επιστροφής των Heir Apparent -μετά από τρεις δεκαετίες- είχαμε αναφερθεί εγκαίρως. Η μπάντα που έδωσε το 1986 νόημα στην φράση "Heavy Metal perfection" με το "Graceful Inheritance" και τρία χρόνια αργότερα κυκλοφόρησε το εκπληκτικό "One Small Voice" θα "βγάλει" στα μέσα του επόμενου μήνα τον τρίτο δίσκο της. Φέρει τον τίτλο "The View From Below" και συμμετέχει σχεδόν όλη η "παλαιά φρουρά".

Ο Terry Gorle, ο Derek Peace και ο Ray Schwartz (στους δύο 80ies δίσκους υπογράφει ως Raymond ή Ray Black). Μαζί τους ο πληκτράς Op Sakiya (βλ. Screams of Angels) και ο τραγουδιστής Will Shaw (βλ. Athem, ex-Abodean Skye). Την παραγωγή του "The View From Below" έχει αναλάβει ο Tom Hall, ο οποίος έχει βάλει την υπογραφή του σε δίσκους όπως το "Graceful Inheritance" και "One Small Voice" (των Heir Apparent), "Queensrÿche" (ep), "Empire", "Promised Land" (Queensrÿche) κλπ.
