lyrics

Behold the ships of might and doom
As they cross the ring of the land
Raging on across the waves
Through thunder and darkness they fare

They sail across the vast open seas
To conquer the lands beyond the mist
Towards the west the ships of war sail
Seeking the kingdoms of legends and gold

Shrouded in mystery these islands do beckon those hungry for the spoils of war
Great warriors from a land far in the north
Have heard tales of riches and wealth

For all this we have heard of this mighty land
Of dragons and druids
Of valleys and streams
Far to the west we must sail to plunder and pillage to burn and destroy

Fire!

As fire rains down from the sky and burns all in its path
And death and destruction ravage the land
The hands of doom shall reap the harvest of blood

Swords held fast, archer’s eyes keen
May your arrows strike true and your blades strike clean
Blood paints the ground as the sound of steel echoes for miles around
A chorus of agony, pain and death soars through the air as arrows fly
These warriors of this island, hardened they are, do not seem afraid to die

As the battle raged on more were put to the sword and all hope for the invaders had died
Our defences are strong, our hearts are true and our warriors are both fearless and brave
Today is the day our enemies shall fall by axe, by arrow, by blade!
Now victorious they stand, these warriors of old, on these ancient islands eternal

Aurea Aetas

More amazing black metal from Erech, whose other bands Ancient Mastery and Carathis are favorites of mine. With Grandeur the music is harsh, fast paced, melodic, riff-heavy guitar driven black metal that is a bit more raw and less epic than Erech's other acts. Jody B.

Feeling some major Agalloch and Rapture vibes from this, with a healthy bit of SAOR thrown in for good measure. Really good stuff! friskyarts
