Signum Regis - 'When Freedom Fails' (Version 2023)
Evil is rising once again
I can now smell it in the air
Twisted minds moving on with their plan
Sociopaths to rule all men
This is no time to give up again
Now is the time to stand up and yell
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails
And those who cried "appease! Appease!"
Are hung by those whom they tried to please
Citizen spies and skynet drones
Highway checkpoints, martial law
Training for slave mentality
Collective guilt, insanity
Eyes in the skies, are now watching you
You're being taxed for everything you do
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails
And those who cried "appease! Appease!
"are hung by those whom they tried to please
Oh... We are on our way
Oh... We won't go astray
Oh... We are on our way
Oh... We won't go astray
I wonder, how did we come to this point?
How did we lose all sanity?
As we turned away from god
We let all hell break loose
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails
And those who cried "appease! Appease!
"are hung by those whom they tried to please
I can now smell it in the air
Twisted minds moving on with their plan
Sociopaths to rule all men
This is no time to give up again
Now is the time to stand up and yell
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails
And those who cried "appease! Appease!"
Are hung by those whom they tried to please
Citizen spies and skynet drones
Highway checkpoints, martial law
Training for slave mentality
Collective guilt, insanity
Eyes in the skies, are now watching you
You're being taxed for everything you do
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails
And those who cried "appease! Appease!
"are hung by those whom they tried to please
Oh... We are on our way
Oh... We won't go astray
Oh... We are on our way
Oh... We won't go astray
I wonder, how did we come to this point?
How did we lose all sanity?
As we turned away from god
We let all hell break loose
No man escapes when freedom fails
All the best men will rot in filthy jails

"Chapter IV: The Reckoning" ετιτλοφορείτο το τέταρτο full length album των Signum Regis. Κυκλοφόρησε από την Ulterium Records τον Νοέμβριο του 2015 σε cd και τον Ιούνιο του 2016 σε βινύλιο. Σε ψηφιακή μορφή θα "βγει" τον επόμενο μήνα (19 Μαΐου 2023).
Για την ακρίβεια πρόκειται για νέα εκδοχή (new version) του δίσκου, με τον (νυν τραγουδιστή της μπάντας) Jota Fortinho να έχει αναλάβει τα φωνητικά στην θέση του (τότε τραγουδιστή των Signum Regis) Mayo Petranin. Η δισκογραφική εταιρεία Ulterium Records μας λέει σχετικά:
Ronnie König: «'Chapter IV: The Reckoning' has been our best selling album. Despite the success we felt like the full sonic and production potential was not reached when we released it in 2015. They say it's never too late to make things right, so after 8 years since the release we are releasing a new version of this album that we are really excited about.
It's not just a remaster. The songs were re-recorded to a large degree. The drums are completely re-recorded, some other instrumental parts too and the big thing are the vocals as our current singer Jota Fortinho recorded his takes of the vocals.
Some songs sounds so fresh now, that they will not only energize new fans but also the fans of the old release. But don't worry! Mayo Petranin who was the lead singer back then is still a part of this re-release. Many of his backing vocals are used in this version and there will also be a special version of this album with his lead vocals released at a later stage.»

Ακούμε την νέα εκδοχή του τραγουδιού "When Freedom Fails", για την οποία ο (μπασίστας) Ronnie König μας λέει σχετικά:
«It is an uptempo song that seems to be resonating with the fans of bands like Helloween / Gamma Ray. High pitched melodic vocals, fast guitar riffing, playful bass lines and a lot of double bass pedals underneath that. It was written almost 10 years ago, but it looks like this song is more up to date than back then.
Loss of freedom, persecution, psychopathic politicians ruling the nations, balkanisation, surveillance, AI on the rise, isn't that what we have going on right now? You bet it is. I wish this song was less prophetic than it turned out to be.»
