Kristian K. Erikson I hate to sound like a hipster, but I liked Empire better. That said, this is still one hell of an album. As if that weren't enough, we have Justine Ethier from Blackguard on drums which is all kinds of epic. Favorite track: Kolossos.

Owen W Melodic death metal with symphonic and progressive touches that's anthemic, grand, and has a great command of melody and pace. The husky clean singing compliments the extreme instrumentation fantastically and stands well alongside the screamed vocals. The perfect balance of technical, emotive, and beautiful. Favorite track: Children of the Void.
Wisdoms End

Wisdoms End I discovered this Band while this album was on pre-order. The only song avalable was allready damn good but I was still not convinced. After the whole release I have to admit that there was absolut no reason for it.
This is a awesome melodic death metal album with a male and female vocalist who complement each other in a very harmonic way.
Blast it at least once through your speakers!

Skymaster 03:50
This is dawn of a new beginning Fists clenched tight, ready for battle What we’ve lost will be found again Horizons burning, we look up to the skies Fallen as a stellar gift Stronger than the gods Clouds enkindling Chorus: All hope is gone, I scream at heavens This is not yet the end! Brothers and sisters moan, I howl Truth will prevail! Riding through fields of desperation Celestial vault bleeds its sight ‘’We shall not surrender, we cannot fear’’ He said, voice cracking with thunder Fallen as a stellar gift Stronger than the gods Clouds enkindling All hope is gone, I scream at heavens This is not yet the end! Brothers and sisters moan, I howl Truth will prevail! Fallen as a stellar gift Stronger than the gods Clouds enkindling All hope is gone, I scream at heavens This is not yet the end! Brothers and sisters moan, I howl Truth will prevail!

Kolossos 04:32
Crushing my hopes Godlike marbled monster watches Crawling in the dark I want to break through My bones are frail I want to break you Standing above! He’ll tear me down* (growl) Laying below! I don’t stand a chance* I am the son of a mountain I will pick you up I will break you down If you dare to cross my path Climbing up the hill I can feel his strength Nothing to lose in the end What will happen was meant Standing above! He’ll crush me down * (growl) Laying below! Too late to surrender* I am the son of a mountain I will pick you up I will break you down If you dare to cross my path Kolossòs! The earth has spoken! To the sun you were reaching! Kolossòs! The earth has shaken! On the ground eternally, you’ll be laying!

Rising from the darkness I scream and aim for light My sentence has now ended I run towards the flare As they long for my suffering I stand fearless I’ll never be silent For this’s my inception Give me the arms to break Free from this slumber And I’ll fight for them Give back what was stolen As one, we will shatter his word Let the curtain fall Proud, as chaos rules the land Let the curtain fall Their cries muted our wounds Blood as vengeance, a red flag A deep growl broke our pride The time has come Give me the arms to break Free from this slumber And I’ll fight for them Give back what was stolen Chorus; As one, we will shatter his word Let the curtain fall Proud, as chaos rules the land Let the curtain fall Strong! We’ll rise Fearless! We’ll fight Mighty! They’ll perish They shall not tear us down The path’s now cleared Mourning has ceased Off with their screams They did not tear us down

Pale 04:04
Great pestilence, I ride Followed by lifeless carcasses Nothing but chaos, destruction Peace as our nemesis As I dwell through their minds Shaking as reach their skin As I ooze from the skies Souls burning in his name Chorus: Insidious and grand, masters of the end Legions lead by my prophecies Death and bleakness, as loyal soldiers Only dust left, our reign has begun My voice, the path of wreckage Embracing sky’s paleness Torture echoes endlessly Shores of infection, my masterpiece As I dwell through their minds Shaking as reach their skin As I ooze from the skies Souls burning in his name Chorus: Insidious and grand, masters of the end Legions lead by my prophecies Death and bleakness, as loyal soldiers Only dust left, our reign has begun Plague chars through flesh Disease doesn’t know pity Mesmerized by my cold emptiness Light has faded away Chorus: Insidious and grand, masters of the end Legions lead by my prophecies Death and bleakness, as loyal soldiers Only dust left, our reign has begun

What once was our pride Drowned us to deep sea Our home Became wreckage Sailing through 7 seas Destiny lies in our past Cradled in this endless ocean We are born to remember our faith We are The children of the void We are The fire bearers We are A spark in the darkness We are A dream through nightmares Were the memories we wrote Eulogies for the murderers? Were the tales of my childhood Lies to put me to sleep? Our land was swallowed Our souls forsaken Knowledge as a distant tale To keep us from obliterate We are The children of the void We are The fire bearers We are A spark in the darkness We are A dream through nightmares We are The children of the void We are The fire bearers We are A spark in the darkness We are A dream through nightmares This no man’s land We call home Is nowhere to be found But our plea Lead by waves Surely our shelter will come to us We are The children of the void We are The fire bearers We are A spark in the darkness We are A dream through nightmares

Tyrants 04:26
They gathered Secretly Hatred is the food Of the fool Tyrants as leaders Lead them to gloom Despots too greedy to care If they’d fall in their own doom Divide and rule They succeeded Treacherous alliance, they created Black clouds only show Mischief, division Split in their own accord Rotten to the core Their thirst for power Fed the worms inside Liberated the rats Corruption couldn’t stay hidden Tyrants as leaders Lead them to gloom Despots too greedy care If they’d fall in their own doom Denial Killed their voices Persecution Brought them there The queen was meant to fall Her call for autocracy echoed But as they reached to her She howled louder than thunder As she fell down the stairs Of the podium she raised The once muted screams Were not to be pleased ‘TILL THEY MADE HER SEE HER BLOOD! OHH MERCY!!! FORGIVE ME!!! A thousand nails. A thousand lives to avenge! NAILED TO THE GATES OF HELL!! NAILED TO THE GATES OF HELL!! NAILED TO THE GATES OF HELL!! NAILED TO THE GATES OF HELL!!

When darkness unfolds, We wander, the way is reckless, The path unsure We must endure Ashes in my hair Endlessly lost in despair Take my hand as we run, where kings have fallen Chorus: Fields of sorrow Where mushrooms grow All trees, all hollow We reap what we sow Fields of chaos Where mushrooms grow Fading as we cross Forgetting what we know This is a hopeless life Sleepless nights, never ending Thunder We must endure Ashes in my hair Endlessly lost in despair Take my hand as we run, where kings have fallen Chorus I gift you my twilight plea for all what’s left here for me I want you to see what I see Chorus

I cross my heart and promise you Even a thousand miles away I’ll keep your words within Our faith safely shrouded Now, as you set sails on black moon, Oceans ignite in torment Miserable shrieks, not loud enough to resound In the meadows of your thoughts On those restless nights, I watch Milky silver lights irradiating My frosted and bruised curves His touches haunting me His hands are carved in my skin Our breaths as a symphony Will we ever encounter A tale so enchanting yet so tragic Now, as you set sails on black moon, Oceans ignite in torment Miserable shrieks, not loud enough to resound In the meadows of your thoughts Two minds in different tongues Bound by timeless answers Two minds on different grounds Bound by an everlasting flame
