DRAGONSLAIR
Un grupo aleman que como su nombre indica se forma cuando parte de la Banda Running Wild deja su banda madre para encarar una nueva aventura musical. Se forma en 1992 con la salida de Axel Morgan (Guitarrista) y Jens Becker (Bajo)) de Running Wild, a quienes se sumará Frank Ullrich a la bateria, y el británico Frank Knight a la voz, con un registro muy peculiar que puede recordarnos en ocasiones a los Accept de UDO. En 1994 X-Wild sacan su primera obra de estudio a la que seguirán dos más los dos años siguientes cesando su actividad como grupo en 1997. Tres son por lo tanto los discos de estudio que nos dejó la banda, de los que en esta ocasión quiero referirme a su tercera y última obra, este savageland de 1996, la que a mi me parece más completa y mejor, y en la que encontrareis temas buenos como este dragonslair, un tema muy facil de escuchar y en que sin duda uno piensa en una mezcla entre Accept y Running Wild, una buena mezcla sin duda. El disco entero resulta interesante y creo que es uno de esos que hay que descubrir. Dejo un enlace a youtube.
The fighting and finally befriending of the mythical but very real dragon
Moroth. Ending in the showing by Moroth to Braveheart the power of the
Shield of Darkness and the foretelling of his coming to rule Savageland)
The wind and rain were allies
Fought the sweat upon his brow
And hunger was an enemy
The fear it stalked the ground
He gazed up at the mountain
To the dragonslair he crawled
And clutched his mighty hammer
To his breast that was so cold
In dragonslair
All alone in dragonslair
Im so alone
Alone in dragonslair
So heavy was his breathing
Remembering the myth
How mighty was the dragon
And Moroth he was called
The guardian of the shield
Of darkness was his role
And suddenly he saw the beast
How could he be so bold
Awakened from his slumber
Moroth spied him with one eye
Unfurled his wings with gaping mouth
A million teeth shone bright
Down and down he circled
So silent in his flight
The clash of steel on scaly skin
Resounded in the night
As Moroth saw the pendant
Around our heroes neck
A memory great eons old
Flashed suddenly in his head
"Reveal the Shield of Darkness"
The old ones they had told
To he who is the true one
And serve him in his quest
