Black Soul Horde - 'Malediction Of The Dead' (official audio)

In the dawn of time our kind was greedy
Now that nations fall we stand in awe
Helpless but aware that time is ending
Loyal servants of a made up God

Behold the skies of Gold
Keep your ears open for prayers left untold

Under a crescent moon
With blood on our hands
It's Adams curse that's haunting us
Acid rain falls upon the earth
A man lies in despair
Mumbling the malediction of the dead

Now that evil rules our tortured cosmos
Hopes surrender to ungodly fears
Let tears burn your soul with grieving magma
Let sins pierce your brain like ruthless spears

Behold the skies of Gold
Keep your ears open for prayers left untold

Under a crescent moon
With blood on our hands
It's Adams curse that's haunting us
Acid rain falls upon the earth
A man lies in despair
Mumbling the malediction of the dead

Μπορεί μεταξύ του πρώτου ("Tales of the Ancient Ones" 2013) και του δεύτερου δίσκου ("Land of Demise" 2020) να μεσολάβησαν επτά έτη, αλλά η επόμενη δισκογραφική δουλειά τους δεν μας έβαλε σε μακροχρόνια αναμονή. Το τρίτο full length album των Ελλήνων metallers φέρει τον τίτλο "Horrors from the Void" και κυκλοφόρησε προ τριετίας.

Οι Black Soul Horde δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από μία ενδεκάδα έτη και μας παρουσιάζονται κάπως έτσι: «Classic Heavy Metal attitude with NWOBHM and Doom epicness and melody. Also influenced from the occult, the Norse and epic mythology.»

Δελτίο τύπου: «Black Soul Horde was created by John Tsiakopoulos (guitars) and Jim Kotsis (vocals) in 2012 as a side project. Soon after the first few recording sessions, having realized that the old-school oriented, metallic outcome was -no less than- the music they grew up with and loved, they decided to turn BSH into a live band.

And so it happened. Black Soul Horde's sound is merely based on the classic heavy metal sound of the NWOBHM scene, while at the same time containing elements of the modern European heavy-power metal sound (Germany, Italy etc) and American heavy metal-like vocals varying from brutal growls to high pitched melodies.

Their lyrics are inspired by the Greek and Norwegian mythology and the respectful works of Robert E. Howard (writer of Conan), H.P. Lovecraft and John Milton to name a few.

The strong point of Black Soul Horde is their memorable riffs and catchy melodies, based on extraordinary lead guitar work in the vein of the Iron Maiden legacy, as well as their epic straight forward lyrics, which all combined, create a battlefield experience on and off the stage.»
