Moonspell - "The Hermit Saints" (Behind The Scenes)

Break from the ordinary, do what's necessary
Pray for death, pray for ecstasy
Skin off the human shell, so broken and frail
Lock the gates behind the hermit saints

Oh, hear them call, from hell on earth
Oh, hear them call, from nature's dome
From far beyond, oh hear them call

Break from the ordinary, do what's necessary
Pray for death, pray for ecstasy
Skin off the human shell, so broken and frail
Lock the gates behind the hermit saints

Silence is broken, the knot is too tight
The desert compels me to do what is right

Oh, hear them call, from skies above
From down below, oh hear them call

Silence is broken, the knot is too tight
The desert compels me to do what is right

Break from the ordinary, do what's necessary
Pray for death, pray for ecstasy
Skin off the human shell, so broken and frail
Lock the gates behind the hermit saints

Oh, hear them call! behold the hermit saints

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή για τους Moonspell μετά από -ουσιαστικά- μία τετραετία. Ο διάδοχος του album "1755" (2017) και 13ος στουντιακός full length δίσκος των Πορτογάλων gothic metallers τιτλοφορείται "Hermitage" και κυκλοφόρησε προ μηνός...

Moonspell: «Make no mistake: this is a METAL song played according to Moonspell’s own signature and rules.It tells of the fever that makes us cross into the desert of our own existences, perpetually looking out for the cure, that will never come unless we change our ways. Many might go. Few will come back. Lock the gates, behold The Hermit Saints!»
