Medieval Steel - 'Gods Of Steel' (promo video)

In the kingdom of the Lord
Beyond the realm of the night
We fight the chanting whord
With our bloody sword of might

[Bridge]
Persecute the unbelievers
They scurry to their hole
Peering from the darkness
They fear the unknown

[Chorus]
Pray to the Gods of Steel
Pray to the Gods of Steel

You can stand and fight
But you must consider your fate
By the time you see our dust cloud
It's already too late

[Bridge]
Divide and conquer
Method of attack
You can't fight anymore
With a sword in your back

[Chorus]

Sitting by the evening fire
Staring into the flame
Thinking of the fight
That the morning light will bring
To die in battle or to live on
Seems not a worthy trade
For on the morrow the blood of my enemy
Shall quench my thirsty blade

[Chorus]

Οι Medieval Steel δημιούργησαν ένα υψηλό underground status με ένα (ουσιαστικά) τραγούδι: το ομώνυμο (με το εκπληκτικό ρεφρέν)! Ένα ep ("Medieval Steel" 1984) και ένα demo ("Demo '89" 1989) ο δισκογραφικός τους απολογισμός πίσω στην δεκαετία του ογδόντα.

Στην τρέχουσα... χιλιετία είναι πιο παραγωγικοί με δύο συλλογές ("The Dungeon Tapes" 2005, "The Anthology of Steel" 2012), ένα single και δύο full length albums ("Dark Castle" και "Gods of Steel" 2022).

Το δεύτερο κυκλοφόρησε αυτοχρηματοδοτούμενο σε ψηφιακή μορφή και CD-r. Δύο χρόνια αργότερα έρχεται η Lost Realm Records να το κυκλοφορήσει "κανονικά" σε cd και βινύλιο (σε μόλις 350 αντίτυπα). Ακούμε την ομότιτλη (και εναρκτήρια) κομματάρα!

Δελτίο τύπου: «A release of the album "Gods Of Steel" by American Power Metal heroes Medieval Steel has been one of the most recurring requests we've had in recent months.

For those who are more attentive, the work we have been developing with the band is nothing new: in 2022 we brought the first vinyl edition of "The Dungeon Tapes" and a few months later the vinyl and CD reissue of "Dark Castle", the first full-length album by the band, originally released in 2013.

"Gods Of Steel" is the second full-length album by this legendary band from Memphis, Tennessee and until now only available in CD-r format through the band.

Composed of 10 original songs, Medieval Steel did not want to stray from tradition and once again explores the themes of medieval fantasy, epic battles and human overcoming, with another unique performance by vocalist and band leader Bobby Franklin, along with a team of high quality musicians.»
