Armory - 'Wormhole Escape' (official video)
Still stuck in the fortress of void
We began our desperate escape
Taking a leap into nothingness
Through a cosmic rift,
Away from this place
Drifting through time and space,
Lost in the netherworld
A gateway of the warp
Last grip of reality,
Slowly fades away
Does it have an end?
Whispering shadows, slithering lies
Traversing the portals, unlocking the mind
Semi-hypnotic waking sleep
Searching deep within the deep
Discovering the horrors of the warp
Swallowed by the vortex,
The terror begins
Transfixed by the wormhole,
Time is standing still
Something clings on,
To the hull of Mercurion
It’s a living creature...
Yet mindless, filled with sin
Terrible sounds are coming from the air lock
Amorphous sludge, trying to break in
Ineffable dread, this is the end
Hunger and hatred, It’s feeding on our minds!
The plasma fog clears at last,
Outside the porthole’s glass
But the nightmares remain
Somehow we made it through,
Gravity’s darkest depths
The wormhole escape

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από μία τετραετία για τους Armory. Ο διάδοχος του album "The Search" και τρίτος συνολικά "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Σουηδών speed metallers φέρει τον τίτλο "Mercurion" κι έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει τον επόμενο μήνα.
Οι Armory μας έρχονται από το Γκέτεμποργκ. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ δεκαετίας κι αναφέρουν ως επιρροές συγκροτήματα όπως οι: Accept, Helstar, Liege Lord, Exciter, Judas Priest, Running Wild, Mercyful Fate, Savage Grace, Saxon, Slayer, Agent Steel...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Dying Victims Productions is proud to present the highly anticipated third album of Sweden’s Armory, Mercurion, on CD and vinyl LP.
Hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden’s Armory started out in 2012 and have been delivering hyper-speed metal ever since. After two demos, the debut album World Peace... Cosmic War was released via High Roller Records in 2016, and it garnered great reviews from all around the world.
The band then got to share the stage with bigger bands such as Pentagram and Nifelheim. With all the new experience, Armory went into the studio again in late 2017 to record their second album. That album, The Search, was released in July 2018 via High Roller and again did it garner great reviews and proved that the songwriting had developed in the right direction.
The band was also able to break new ground outside of Sweden with gigs in Germany, Belgium, and Denmark. With two albums under their belts, Armory were finally ready to make something that they had planned for years but previously didn’t feel they were ready for: a full-blown sci-fi concept album with a story from start to finish.
And now it arrives in the form of Mercurion, set to be released by new label home Dying Victims. With this goal in place, this didn’t just put more pressure on the lyrics but also to make the music more dramatic to fit the story - and dazzlingly and dynamically, Armory accomplish all that (and more!) across Mercurion.
The album takes the listener through a dramatic journey aboard the starship Mercurion, named after the god Mercurius - the winged messenger of the gods, protector of travelers, and god of boundaries between worlds.
Armory’s now-trademark hyper-speed metal is more powerful and poignant than ever, pushing their boundaries of epic storytelling, mesmerizing hooks, and explosive solos whilst retaining their core sound.
The production, in kind, carries the perfect balance of dirt and drama, grime and gleam, making their melodicism sound ever more effervescent while making sure this is the sound of five actual humans playing together as a band. Now that band is heading out into space, and they beckon you to board Mercurion - Armory will guide the way!»
