Funeral

A shadow speaks
Won't you give me
your hand?
She's talking in her sleep
Speaking in tongues again
Why must we cut so deep?
I reckon she said
Before fading
into a trance
"Oh, evil one
I came to die, said Mary
You watch my funeral
She weeps
But not in sorrow
Curses not in pain
Do you remember me?
Tell me, what can
you see now?
Mystified, from here
there's no return
What am I doing here?
Chained to the stone
The goat sits with us
Please join us
On this table
Now whip me hard
with chains in hand!
"Oh, evil one
I came to die, said Mary
You watch my funeral
Those crystal eyes
Mirrors of doom
I see a sacrifice!
"Release me
from this body"
She's just a prisoner
in time
Not in the company
of angels
Bewitched to serve
in hell, in hell
Throw the horns
with me dear
"Drink the blood of ages
Sinister ways of the law
Oh, don't you look
away now!
It's so funny now...
Funeral! Funeral! Funeral!

Eyes In the Dark
03:49
|

|
I crave your flesh
A dancer in the dark
Spikes razor sharp
The iron mask
Blood and blasphemy
Soon you will see
The end in agony
Laughing at your face
Here the torture
Never stops
Forbidden pleasures
Horrors of lust
Eyes in the dark
Like a dagger cutting deep
Through your heart
Will you remember?
I see it in your eyes
Begging me to die
The iron maiden's fate
Medieval sacrifice
The law shall now be laid
Virgin vice
Spoil you with sin
And eat you from within
Last I remember
Eyes in the dark
In chains and leather
The devil's mark
Eyes in the dark
Like a dagger cutting deep
Through your heart
Eyes in the dark
Will you remember?
Eyes in the dark
Like a dagger cutting deep
Through your heart
Eyes in the dark
Beware!
Eyes in the dark

Holy Flesh
03:30
|
|||
|
Wicked silhouettes
Claws piercing skin
The chosen one
is next of kin
Forking the tongues
Twisted hell's grin
She draws the blade
Rushing the wicked
from within
Master!
What have I done?
"Deliver the seventh son!"
Holy flesh, holy flesh...
I'm just a ghoul
in wild devotion
Crucifix
to drip in lust
The branding iron
Sits on black flames
Sister
You must embrace the need
in leather clad
Mother
What have I done?
If these walls
could speak...
Let this convent burn!
Master!
Angel of mercy come
Leave no cross unturned
The walls are closing in
Shifting before your eyes
Holy flesh, only flesh
Only flesh, holy flesh
The walls are closing in
Shifting before your eyes
Only flesh,

Ecstasy

|

|
Nightmares
The sky is falling
down tonight
Drink from the chalice
The venom burns so fast
Into the gallows
Betrayer's misery
Matter of death will come
Shed this blood
by guillotine
Descending from the night
A presence by your side
Draw the blades
Oh madness, deception
She bends in ecstasy
Blindfolds
Eclipsing cemetery lights
Voices will scream revenge
In full moonlight
Candles burning
In perfect symmetry
The voice of death
becomes your only reality
I know it's you again
You must understand
No escape...
Oh madness, deception
She bends in ecstasy
Sacrifice the enemy
Pretender...
The gliding mist!
Don't you wake me up now
The ecstasy
The blood of your child
is running wild
Biting the flesh
We bring him back

Sin for Satan
03:13
|
|||
|
A cry from the crypt
Foresee the evil eye
"Bring me the head
of the sinner!"
Upon stealing his life
The oath was broken
A sin, for Satan
Beheaded evil
The serpent in your eyes
A cry for mercy
A will to die
Filthy pleasures
Seek no means
Accept this sacrifice
A sin, for Satan
Dungeons are alive!
I believe you sinned
A sin for Satan
A sin for Satan
A sin for Satan

Iron Heart
03:46
|
|||
|
Neon lights
Shine forever
Feels like thunder
From the heavens
Like fire from the skies
Guitars are howling
And a thousand fists
are pounding
Like true believers
We live to play
Just one more night
Brothers I miss
We've been riding
fast and hard
Lisbon to Berlin
With an iron heart
I will live again
With an iron heart
I will live again
Live again
Writing the pages
Of these leather ages
Where the eagle
dares to fly
Where legends never die
Chasing the serpent's kiss
Lost in necropolis
You ride the road of kings
Just to get back
to the start
The sword I raise
To our brothers
of steel in hearts
The wheel keeps turning...
With an iron heart
I will live again
With an iron heart
I will live again
Live again
The sword I raise
To our brothers
of steel in hearts
The wheel keeps turning...
With an iron heart
I will live again
With an iron heart
I will live again
Live again, live again!
Iron heart!

On Your Knees for Metal
03:07
|
|||
|
A violent force
is taking back the night
On leather highways
Shooting down the stars
The call of metal
through hyperspace
Building the shockwaves
Like a hammer to the face
On your knees for metal
Got me on your knees
On your knees for metal
Metal and hell
On your knees for metal
Got me on my knees
On your knees for metal
Heading to hell
A thousand megatons
charging the air
Pounding steel
and heavy metal
It's time to break
the chains
And break the law
No shame, no mercy
We're coming back
for more
On your knees for metal
Got me on your knees
On your knees for metal
Metal and hell
On your knees for metal
Got me on my knees
On your knees for metal
Heading to hell...

Black Leather
04:15
|
|||
|
It's in the night
That she calls out
the demons
Deep in the shadows
The nightmare is real
Sadistic pleasure
Dark domination
There's no escape
from your tight
lips of steel
House of pain
Now you're
the next in line
Metal and chains
Black leather
Black leather tonight
The more you scream
Harder the action
In spikes and chains
anything goes
Tied up
in a black angel vest
She only stops
on your eternal rest
House of pain
Now you're
the next in line
Metal and chains
Black leather
Black leather
Infernal mystic angel
My body burns for lust
Malicious fetish master
My soul and flesh
be gone
House of pain
Now you're
the next in line
Metal and chains
Black leather
Black leather

As others have said here, a definite staple in the NWOTHM movement. It has a raw sound that is reminiscent of the era while being a solid banger for a debut album.

Yet another album I’m addicted to. This is definitely one of my favorite NWOTHM releases. It reminds me of being a teenager and discovering Iron Maiden. Love the sci-fi themes.
