lyrics

A descent into darkness
Vast immovable sea
Waves stilled in the silence
For eternity!

The dawn shall not come
Blood stilled in the vein
Flesh cold to the touch
How it was meant to be.

Chorus:
Uncertain LIfe
But Certain Death!
There will always be
That final breath!
Every twist and turn
Of a perilous path
In the end all must bow,
To the reapers staff!

A moment shall come
Of unspeakable pain
When all that you know
Shall wither away

For the mighty and poor
It shall all be the same
When the reaper comes
We all must obey

Repeat Chorus

Who knows when the axe shaill fall?
Death will take us all.
Who knows when the axe shaill fall?
Death will take us all...

Solo

Who knows when the axe shall fall?
Death will take us all.
Who knows when the axe shall fall?
Death will take us...

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka
