Sacred Steel - 'The Watcher Infernal' (official music video)

Great is the folly of man
But vast is the rage of the damned

I won´t take this anymore

You have made me what I am - the antagonist of man
The architect of schemes - the nightmare in your dreams
Through centuries of hell
You have learned to blame me well
Fingers point at me - cursed eternally

You never leave me be - I am never free
Cursed eternally

I am the watcher - scapegoat eternal - forever
Wretched accuser - devil - opponent - Lucifer

The truth it lies unfurled
You´re the rulers of this world
As wicked as your breed my soul could never be
I have watched your evil ways
Prophets rise - morals decay
Fingers point at me - cursed eternally

You never leave me be - I am never free
Cursed eternally

I am the watcher - scapegoat eternal - forever
Wretched accuser - devil - opponent - Lucifer

I see beyond your lies and beyond your smiles
Evil lies within
From darkness I shall rise - rip off your disguise
Blame you and your kin
I was enthroned by you - now you left me screwed
To suffer for your sins

You never leave me be - I am never free
Cursed eternally

I am the watcher - scapegoat eternal - forever
I was an angel - now I´m the devil - Lucifer

The watcher infernal - scapegoat eternal - forever
The watcher infernal - scapegoat eternal - Lucifer

Οι Sacred Steel υπάρχουν στο heavy metal σύμπαν από το μακρινό 1997 και έχουν κυκλοφορήσει εννέα "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, με πλέον πρόσφατο το μουσικό album "Heavy Metal Sacrifice" που "βγήκε" πριν από εννέα έτη (το 2016).

Εν έτει 2025 επιστρέφουν δισκογραφικά (επιτέλους). "Ritual Supremacy" ο τίτλος και έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει την άνοιξη. Το έδαφος προετοιμάζει το μουσικό βίντεο του τραγουδιού "The Watcher Infernal", για το οποίο ο (τραγουδιστής) Gerrit P. Mutz μας λέει:

«The beautiful lyric video should speak quite for itself, I guess.

The lyrics are written from the perspective of Lucifer, the scapegoat for all things evil on this planet.

He's fed up with being the one to blame and points the finger on humanity instead.

I think he is right on that one! Musically it´s different beast than the first two songs we showcased from the new album.

More Sabbath-y and not as aggressive. Maybe just a little more pissed off, haha.»
