Mystic Prophecy - "Hail to the King" (lyric video)

A King is born in a thundering night
A King is born for his land kill and fight
Macedonia - Alexander the Great
In Hellas born to follow his faith

Persian riots, invaders shall burn
One by one, they send them to hell,

Hail to the kind - we ride like the wind
Free like and eagle in the sky
Hail to the King - let the battle begin
For the King till the day I’ll die

Here he comes the king of all kings
With steel and swords
To conquer the world
Crimson fire up to the sky
Alexander’ glorious battle cry

Persian riots, invaders shall burn
One by one, they send them to hell,

Hail to the kind - we ride like the wind
Free like and eagle in the sky
Hail to the King - let the battle begin
For the King till the day I’ll die

Με το ξεκίνημα της νέας χρονιάς κυκλοφόρησαν καινούριο δίσκο οι Mystic Prophecy. Ο διάδοχος του album διασκευών "Monuments Uncovered" (Ιανουάριος 2018) και ενδέκατος συνολικά "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Γερμανών metallers (με τον Έλληνα τραγουδιστή) τιτλοφορείται "Metal Division" και "βγήκε" στις αρχές του έτους. Το τραγούδι "Hail to the King" (το οποίο είναι αφιερωμένο στον Μέγα Αλέξανδρο) κυκλοφορεί και σε βινύλιο (ως single, με το "Here Comes The Winter" στην δεύτερη πλευρά). Η δισκογραφική τους εταιρεία μας δίνει τις λεπτομέρειες:

«Mystic Prophecy release new lyric video and strictly limited, handcrafted, crystal clear 7” vinyl for the song “Hail To The King”. The track is taken from the band's very successful 11th album "Metal Division", released in January this year, which made it to number 20 in the official German charts and received consistently excellent reviews from the press.

This special edition 7” vinyl includes the epic metal hymn "Hail To The King", which is dedicated to Alexander the Great (where according to Metal Hammer Germany “the music combined with the lyrics of the song, form a sacred alliance”) on side A and the ballad-like mid-tempo hymn "Here Comes The Winter", that gradually evolves into a catchy groove-monster filled with melodic hooks on side B! Two real highlights in a compact deluxe package! »

Δελτίο τύπου: «Mystic Prophecy return at their 20th anniversary with a new ground-breaking Heavy Metal masterpiece filled with massive riffs, anthemic hooks and furious melodies!

The band’s 10th album "Metal Division" is definitely their heaviest and best work to date and will elevate Mystic Prophecy where they belong: to the Heavy Metal pantheon! Mystic Prophecy alongside special guests Mob Rules will embark on a European Tour on January 2020 in support of Mystic Prophecy’s anticipated new album "Metal Division"!»
