Merlin - Tales of the Wasteland

A Merlin zenekar idei Electric Children albumának zárótétele egy jól sikerült epikus mű. A figyelmet végig fenntartani képes Tales of the Wasteland jól egyensúlyoz a psychedelikus progrock és a doom metal között, de az Animals korszakos Floydizmus is átszűrődik a hangok fátylain...

lyrics

Gunslinger's Blues:

WE CAME AND SAW

OUR CITIES FALL

INTO EARTH THEY CLIMB

LOST TO US AND TIME

CREATED OUT OF DUST

STRIPPED DOWN TO THE CORE

WERE THE WASTELAND TOWERS FALLING

TO THE FLOOR

ALL IS LEFT TO US NOW

BUT BULLET HOLES

I SEE BLOOD RED LAKES

MASS GRAVE BONES

THE CHAMBERS ARE ALL LOADED NOW

MY GRIP IS WARM

DUST FLOWS IN LIKE RAIN FALL

I AM HOME

Lords of the Wasteland:

(CHANTING)

The Dragonaut Returns:

SURROUNDED WITH STONE TO OUR FINAL HOME

AND WELL BELOW THE ROT WILL FLOW

A GRACIOUS FEAST SET OUT FOR THE BEAST

THE POOR WILL CRY WHILE HE EATS

SOME PEOPLE WEEP WHILE OTHERS WILL SLEEP

LEFT BEHIND THEIR SOULS UNWIND

WE DONT KNOW WHERE WE WILL GO

WE JUST DRIFT OH DRIFT AFLOAT

SURROUNDED WITH STONE TO OUR FINAL HOME

AND WELL BELOW THE ROT WILL FLOW

IN THE DARK WE GAIN OUR SIGHT

LEAVING BEHIND OUR MORTAL FRIGHT
