Attick Demons - "City Of Golden Gates" (lyric video)
Sometimes you have to hear the voice inside of you
And let it tell you the better thing to do
Somehow it leads me to sail to the west
To reach myself and start my own quest
No one else has seen a thing like this before
I couldn't believe my eyes when I grappled in the shore
Shinning light as gold, holy Poseidon's home
Immortal keepers, the gods made of stone.
Sacred city of golden gates
Empitness seems unreal
Sacred city of golden gates
Where the time stands still
Rings of crystal waterflowing to the sea
Growing trees of life for those who meant to be
Men and animals has melt to work together
A close relationship that will remain forever
I have crossed many seas in my life, now I know
And I have sailed many tides through the time,
As my doubts starts to grow
Heavy stones are aligned by mystic stars
Not many miles away from home
People are dancing and singing
To praise the wise helping friends
They come from the sky above
In our land they still stand

Attick Demons: heavy metal μπάντα από την Πορτογαλία. Δημιουργήθηκε στα μέσα της δεκαετίας του ενενήντα, αναφέρει ως επιρροές μπάντες όπως οι Iron Maiden, Manowar, Helloween και μας παρουσιάζονται κάπως έτσι:
«Attick Demons are a portuguese heavy metal band that will take you to the old days of New Wave of British Heavy Metal with a little twist of today's heavy metal sound. They came with the power force of demons... hungry to conquer, willing to succeed. With an high pitched powerful singer, galloping drums and classic blazing guitar solos, you have to listen to believe!»
Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τρεις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους συν δύο demos, ένα ep κι ένα single. Το ντεμπούτο τους ("Atlantis") "βγήκε" προ δεκαετίας, τον Αύγουστο του 2011, από την Pure Steel Records. Στην δέκατη επέτειό του το album θα κυκλοφορήσει για πρώτη φορά σε βινύλιο από την Rock of Angels Records με πέντε επιπλέον (bonus) τραγούδια...
Δελτίο τύπου: «First time on vinyl! Celebrating 10 years since its original release day! “Atlantis” by Attick Demons is finally available on limited Gold Vinyl!
The band has also prepared something special for this edition! Within the vinyl, there’s an exclusive download card for the fans to get a 5 track acoustic EP totally free via bandcamp! 10 years passed since the release of the first album by Attick Demons “Atlantis”, a Classic Heavy Metal Album with splashes of Power metal.
The recording lasted about one year to finish; such was the band’s desire to debut in a perfect way. The band choose TDA Studios with Antonio Triste and Paulo Basilio for producing, with whom they had already worked in Demo Tapes and live shows, because no one knew the band sound and dynamics, like they did.
“There’s no love like the first...” Attick Demons wanted the keep the sound simple but very cohesive. Drums, Bass and Rhythm guitars are very strong and steady, allowing Guitar Solos and Vocal lines to emerge and shine.
The special appearances by Paul Di’Anno (Ex-Iron Maiden) and Ross the Boss (Ex-Manowar) was something that further enhanced the sound of the album, taking it to another level. The band still feels privileged having Paul recording the song “Atlantis” in their studio.
There were also others special guests, female vocals in “Meeting the Queen” by Beatriz Teixeira and “Sacrifice” has a beautiful piano introduction with the participation of a choir extolling the performance of the vocal line. It’s a conceptual album relating all lyrics with the mythic civilization of Atlantis.
Songs like “City of Golden Gates” or “Riding the Storm” can take you back in time and travel thought your imagination, imagining their way of life as well as the daily struggles for survival. The original mastering was done by Andy LaRoque at Sonic Train Studios, Sweden, which also gave an even more professional sound to the mix.
The album was so well received that two special editions were released, one for Japan with the Bonus Track Moonlight Walks (unreleased track), and other for Brazil with the Bonus Track Left to Breathe (First released on EP 2000).
For this 10th anniversary edition, the band recorded 5 Acoustic versions during the Covid-19 pandemic, and mixed and mastered by Paulo Basilio. It’s more relaxing way to listen to the same songs, where you can appreciate more musical details. Nevertheless, they are still 5 great Heavy-Metal Songs.»
