Nekromant - 'Behind The Veil Of Eyes' (video)

I found the key to open up the void
Behind the veil of eyes and far beyond

Fire on ice as we light the dying sky tonight
Pendulum strikes, as the sun and moon collide

And as the night begins to fall
Until were buried in the storm
Turning all colors into white
As we approach the veil of eyes

The voices that scream in silence
The blades that peel on my skin
To nothing and nowhere
A path for the ending within

By cold wind the skies are on fire
The blades that peel on my skin
The first are the last to discover
A path for the ending within

Fire on ice as we light the dying sky tonight
Pendulum strikes, as the sun and moon collide

And as the night begins to fall
Until were buried in the storm
Turning all colors into white
As we approach the veil of eyes

Το 2012 σχηματίσθηκαν στην Σουηδία οι Serpent. Heavy / doom metal συγκρότημα, το οποίο μετά την κυκλοφορία ενός ep και δύο "ολοκληρωμένων" δίσκων αποφάσισε (προ πενταετίας) να αλλάξει το όνομά του. "Nekromant" ο τίτλος του πιο πρόσφατου δίσκου των Serpent, Nekromant και το νέο όνομα της μπάντας. Τρία full length albums, ένα ep και δύο singles ο δισκογραφικός τους απολογισμός. Το πλέον πρόσφατο πόνημα των Σουηδών metallers τιτλοφορείται "Temple of Haal" και "βγήκε" προ ημερών...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Standing on the shoulders of metal giants such as Black Sabbath and Pentagram, Swedish trio Nekromant are well versed in the art of crushing riffs and powerful melodies, boasting a sound that echoes the might of the past with an eye cast toward the future. With a much admired set of releases to their name, the three-piece have been turning heads wherever they go with their authentic and effortlessly brilliant old school metal assault. From a punishing percussive battery through to the Iommi-esque guitars, this power-trio understand that the riff is king, as demonstrated throughout their superb new album. The first fruits of their new deal with celebrated Swedish label Despotz Records arrive late 2021 and is packed with ambitious metal gems such as ‘The Woods’, the epic ‘Behind the Veil of Eyes’ and the doom-laden ‘Olórin's Song’.»

Nekromant about the single: «This song is cold as ice but at the same time warming. The lyrics convey a notion of hopelessness but acceptance before an impending doom. Adam delivers the vocals in the verses with great merit. In short, a joyful little tune about darkness and death.»
