Battle Beast - "No More Hollywood Endings" (video)

I see strangers
Every night in my dreams
Locked in dark chambers
Should i know what it means?

Shadows are crawling
On the walls of this cave
While we’re sleepwalking
From cradle to grave

When the spectacle swallows the true story
Where spotlights blind us to the glory

A tale without a history
Crushing echoes of my screams
I’m crawling into tragedy
Chasing someone else’s dreams
A life without a mystery
Creation of dream factory
Nothing’s what it seems
Goodbye hollywood dreams

I am a sidekick
In the story of my life
Pretending that i like it
Afraid to close my eyes

No joy in happiness
I’m on my hands and knees
On the edge of madness
On these dead end streets

When the spectacle swallows the true story
Where spotlights blind us to the glory

A tale without a history
Crushing echoes of my screams
I’m crawling into tragedy
Chasing someone else’s dreams

A life without a mystery
Creation of dream factory
Nothing’s what it seems
Goodbye hollywood dreams

Kissing in the rain
Stargazing once again
Old clichés still remain but i want my own endings
No false solutions
No safe illusions
Come along with me, into a real dream

A tale without a history
Crushing echoes of my screams
I’m crawling into tragedy
Chasing someone else’s dreams

A life without a mystery
Creation of dream factory
Nothing’s what it seems
Goodbye hollywood dreams

Μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία, χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως "party power metal" και αναφέρουν ως αγαπημένους καλλιτέχνες τους Manowar και τους ABBA. Ο λόγος για τους Battle Beast, οι οποίοι δημιουργήθηκαν το 2005.

Πέντε χρόνια αργότερα (κι αφού είχαν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερα demos) κερδίζουν τον διαγωνισμό "Metal Battle Contest" στο φεστιβάλ Wacken Open Air κι από τότε αρχίζει ουσιαστικά η δισκογραφική τους πορεία.

Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους με τον πέμπτο να είναι προ των πυλών. Φέρει τον τίτλο "No More Hollywood Endings" κι αναμένεται στα τέλη Μαρτίου...
