lyrics

Mantle of imperium, come fall into my hands
With terror and oppression I will pacify the lands
The overthrown lie far below, Impenetrable tomb
Idols of their godhood heaped in pyramids of ruin

Cohorts gather! Billions heed my call
For power everlasting I would sacrifice them all
Countless numbers, banners hold my name
The thunder of a thousand hooves is herald to your end

Deified, cry out below: exalt my hated name
Like refuse of the ages, I have cast you to the flame
To those who stand against me I'll return to ash and dust
Forbidden knowledge, entropy, come... fuel my power lust!

Master! God King!
Bestow us with riches and spoils of war
Rise! Conquer!
Put our enemies to the sword

Let fly arrows!
Shimmering death obscures the sun
Rush them! Trample!
Cities are razed to the dust

Murder their prophets, Effigies slashed
Idols beheaded... Altars are smashed

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Greek Epic / Pagan / Black Metal. These guys kick serious butt & there are some fantastic melodies here as well as some great riffs. All with that distinctive triumphant & exclusively Greek edge. There is a clear Rotting Christ influence but these guys are much more subtle in their onslaught! I would be happy to wage war with giants to the sound of this & I am just a weakling nobody... :) Highly recommended!!! bmurator
