Dragony - 'Twilight Of The Gods' (official music video)

Seven worlds about to fall,
In the final battle’s call
Baldur’s dead and Fimbulwinter has begun
Sköll and Hati win the chase,
Crossing aeons, time and space
Sons of Fenrir,
Rise and swallow moon and sun

Jörmungandr rises,
Serpent once asleep
With poison brutalizes,
The terror of the deep

The end has come, the Ragnarök
We fight against all odds
The end of days in Odin’s gaze
The Twilight of the Gods

Mighty Fenrir breaks his chain,
Father Odin soon lies slain
Trickster Loki riding on the ship of nails

With a ship crewed by the dead,
Painting all the world blood red
The great vessel Naglfar is setting sails

Loki falls to Heimdall,
The chaos god destroyed
The bifrost breaks by nightfall,
Burnt by the giant’s stride

The end has come, the Ragnarök
We fight against all odds
The end of days in Odin’s gaze
The Twilight of the Gods

A new life in a new world has begun
A destiny forged under a new sun

The end has come, the Ragnarök
We fight against all odds
The end of days in Odin’s gaze
The Twilight of the Gods

The end has come, the Ragnarök
We fight against all odds
The end of days, beyond the haze
The Twilight of the Gods

Full length album νούμερο πέντε για τους Dragony, οι οποίο επιστρέφουν δισκογραφικά μετά από μία τριετία. "Hic Svnt Dracones" ο τίτλος και αναμένεται στην "καρδιά" του φθινοπώρου. Νέα μέλη της μπάντας (σε σχέση με τον τελευταίο τους δίσκο "Viribus Unitis" που κυκλοφόρησε το 2021) είναι ο κιθαρίστας Mat Plekhanov, ο οποίος εντάχθηκε το 2022 και ο drummer Chris Auckenthaler (ξεκίνησε πέρυσι παίζοντας τύμπανα στις συναυλίες του συγκροτήματος και από φέτος αποτελεί και επίσημα μέλος).

Οι Dragony μας έρχονται από την πρωτεύουσα της Αυστρίας (Βιέννη). Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από 17 έτη (τα τρία πρώτα χρόνια ως The Dragonslayer Project) και αποκαλούν την μουσική τους πρόταση "Glory Metal". Όσον αφορά το νέο τους δισκογραφικό πόνημα μας λένε σχετικά:

«Mighty Dragoons, we are thrilled to announce that our new, fifth studio album title "Hic Svnt Dracones", will be out on October 11th, 2024 via SPV Steamhammer!

We've been working tirelessly on this new album over the past couple of months, and we believe that all the hard work has finally paid off!

We think this is our best album yet, and should appeal to both fans of modern as well as traditional symphonic European Power Metal!

The album was produced and co-written with our longtime collaborator and producer (and seventh band member) Frank Pitters at Silverline Music in Austria, with the mix and master done by the incomparable Jacob Hansen at Hansen Studios, Denmark.

The artwork for the album and the singles was done by Stan W Decker and our videos this time were produced by Witzki Visions, Tamas Künsztler Productions, and Ingo Spörl.

We are once again inviting you to join us on an epic and mythical journey to lands where reality and fantasy blend into one; however this time, the journey takes us to the New World in the late 16th century, when Sir Walter Raleigh receives a charter from Queen Elizabeth I to found the first settlement in North America at Roanoke.

However, the colonists mysteriously disappear... and the story of "Hic Svnt Dracones" tells you exactly what happened!»
