Satan - 'The Blood Ran Deep' (official video)
By dawn's early light
A terrifying sight lay revealed
Where there once had been a vale of green
Now lay destruction
The legend told of the scene of a massacre
Eleven thousand young brave hearts were lost
Draped in the flags of their fathers they fought and fell
Before the fading light said farewell
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
They'd marched South to war
With confidence and Rome on their side
While the Nobles
On the front line stood proud
Too soon they would die
Among the bodies of pikemen and reivers
Lay the remnants of the great king himself
Whose sovereign blood joined a flowing red river
Now at one with his subjects to rest
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
In lands to the North,
One day in September is marked
By a clash so ferocious
The very earth itself felt the scar
The legend told of the tale of a massacre
Eleven thousand young brave hearts were lost
Draped in the flags of their fathers
They fought and fell
Before the fading light said farewell
The blood ran deep
Into the virgin soil
Their blood ran deep
Common blood and royal
The blood ran deep
The blood ran deep
Common blood and royal

Ένα από τα πλέον αγαπημένα μου συγκροτήματα (και από τις καλύτερες μπάντες που κυκλοφορούν εκεί έξω), οι Satan, επέστρεψαν δισκογραφικά μετά από μία τετραετία. Ο διάδοχος του (φοβερού και τρομερού) album "Cruel Magic" τιτλοφορείται "Earth Infernal" και κυκλοφόρησε χθες.
Οι Satan υπάρχουν στο heavy metal σύμπαν (περισσότερες από) τέσσερις δεκαετίες. Δημιουργήθηκαν το 1979 και συνεχίζουν, με διαλείμματα, μέχρι τις ημέρες μας (αν κι όχι πάντα με αυτό το όνομα). Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει έξι "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους (συν τρία demos, τρία singles, ένα ep, τρεις συλλογές και δύο live albums)...

Δελτίο τύπου: «'Earth Infernal' is a product of the times that birthed it, and could only be the work of Satan. Having churned out cutting edge heavy metal throughout the 80's - and reunited in 2011 - their sixth full-length maintains the high standard they long ago set, and it is perhaps their timeliest release.
"For two years the world has been preoccupied with politics and pandemics and while we were all looking the other way our planet has continued to get hotter," says guitarist Russ Tippins. "Our Earth is now infernally hot. Almost irreversibly so. We are on a one way trip to Hell and dragging our children and their children along with us. Yes, Satan has something to say about global warming".»
