Red Cain - 'Blight' (official music video)

Born out of sight
Under a burning tree
Dead in the Blight
Familiar story

Destined to rise
Let-the heavy crown fall
Fated to rot
We’re all, we’re all at fault

Steel your heart
(The beast awakes)
Don’t go far
(It doesn’t have a name)

Doesn’t care
About history
Reaches
Beyond loyalty

Father of Lies
Lord of the Grave
Shepherd of the Night’s flock
Whisper my name

O Great Lord
Lord of the Grave
Father of All
Whisper my name

Inimitable and perfect
Surrogate to feel
Try to pierce the surface
See the truth revealed

Lift this Savage Garden
Out of the night
Greet the Lord of Chaos
BLIGHT

Father of Lies
Lord of the Grave
Shepherd of the Night’s flock
Whisper my name

O Great Lord
Lord of the Grave
Father of All
Whisper my name

O Great Lord!
Ashes on a pyre
Fertile soul for your desire

O Great Lord!
Cast your eye
Endless fields, unstoppable Life

Set the world on fire
Beneath the burning skies
Violent sacrifice be damned

Grey ashes on a pyre
A child’s fading cry
Is nothing to this
Monolith of Life

Ashes on a pyre
A child’s fading cry
White sacrifice be damned

Inimitable and perfect
Surrogate to feel
Try to pierce the surface
See the truth revealed

Lift this Savage Garden
Out of the night
Greet the Lord of Chaos
BLIGHT

Inimitable and perfect
Surrogate to feel
Try to pierce the surface
See the truth revealed

Lift this Savage Garden
Out of the night
Greet the Lord of Chaos
BLIGHT

Οι Red Cain μας έρχονται από τον Καναδά. Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από μία ενδεκάδα έτη και αναφέρουν ως επιρροές συγκροτήματα όπως οι: Kamelot, Symphony X, Conception, Tesseract, Sybreed, Blind Guardian, Aria, Opeth, Rush κλπ.

Τo φθινόπωρο του 2016 κυκλοφόρησαν το ομώνυμο ep και το 2021 το ντεμπούτο τους "Kindred: Act I". Ακολούθησε (πρόπερσι) το δεύτερο μέρος ("Kindred: Act II").

Έκτοτε επικοινωνούν την μουσική τους μέσω singles (τρία στο σύνολο). Παρακολουθούμε το μουσικό βίντεο του τραγουδιού "Blight", για το οποίο η μπάντα μας λέει:

«Blight is defined as an organic contagion that damages, destroys, or corrupts. In the Wheel of Time universe, where the Dark One touches the world, uncontrolled and aberrant growth sprouts and covers the land, home to malign flora and monstrous fauna.

With this track, we moved the needle firmly into the progressive part of our progpower style, delivering an atmospheric, chilling, and dynamic performance meant to mimic the unstoppable advancement of the Blight over the land. Is the Blight a disease or a majestic triumph of organic life without limits? With this Tesseract, Ihsahn, and Insomnium-influenced track, we explore this idea.

The concept for “Blight” came out of a question - what is the ideal state in the evolution of organic life? Influenced by authors like Stanislaw Lem and Adrian Tchaikovsky, this has long been a theme in science fiction, and is becoming relevant in the modern era.

The Blight also plays a key role within the Wheel of Time universe, and the concept sets the stage for a musical exploration from our end where another evolution to our sound likewise takes root.»
