Iron Void - "Lancelot of the Lake" (video)

Mighty Opponent
Dressed in white and armed to fight
Bodies lie broken
And i alone must face this knight
No match in battle
Joust or duel, strength of arms
Rode onto his shield
Smote me down, upon the earth

Lancelot of the Lake
The perfect knight, the sword will break
Knights of the Table Round
Where chivalry, honour and glory are found

Worth beyond measure
I call upon your mystic power
Pride and rage broke it
Overcome, the bravest flower
Rising from darkness
The Lady of the Lake appears
Wielding the sword
The blade reforged with Nimue's tears

We formed the fellowship
That stood the test of time
A noble brotherhood
Exalted and sublime

Την ιστορία - μύθο του βασιλιά Αρθούρου, των Ιπποτών της στρογγυλής τραπέζης και του σπαθιού Excalibur πιθανότατα την γνωρίζετε. Πέρυσι μας την τραγούδησαν, σε... doom metal ρυθμούς, οι Iron Void καθώς αυτό είναι το θέμα του δίσκου "Excalibur". Οι Iron Void είναι ένα Βρετανικό τρίο που έχει κυκλοφορήσει τρεις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους (συν ένα single, ένα ep κι ένα live album)...
