STEEL OF MY AXE
Hoy quiero hablar de un grupo italiano, original en su sonido y en su concepción musical. Se trata de "Doomsword", proyecto que muestra grandes influencias de temas épicos y de la antigüedad, así como de la historia medieval, la literatura fantástica y la mitología europea, todo ello aderezado con un sonido de heavy metal clásico y doom metal con un toque power. La mezcla es curiosa, y al menos merece la pena escuchar su propuesta que en muchas ocasiones resulta más que aceptable. El concepto musical surge a todos los niveles, y se nota incluso en los nombres de los integrantes que adoptan nombres relacionados con diversas cosas, así encontramos pseudónimos como
Deathmaster Nidhoggr, Wrathlord, The Autarch, The Ancient, Sacred Heart, Geilt, The Forger, Guardian Angel, Guardian Angel II, Nightcomer, Dark Omen o Soldier Of Fortune. El grupo se forma en 1997 por Deathmaster y Guardian Angel quienes tocaban en un proyecto musical de música tradicional llamado "1014AD". Deciden reconvertirse en una banda de heavy metal usando el material de esa banda y se hacen llamar "Doomsword". Bajo ese nombre han editado 5 discos de estudio, entre 1999 y 2011. Teóricamente siguen en activo bajo el sello "Dragonheart records", aunque como digo no dan señales de nuevo material desde 2011. Hoy quiero dejar una canción en el blog de su cuarta obra de estudio, "My name will live on", de 2007, en concreto la canción "Steel of my axe", de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
Horns in the distance, resound through the air
The trebuchet's shape standst tall.
Attack is imminent, but I have no fear
I won't be dethroned.
As in 1282, when flames reached the sky,
I am ready again to swing my axe
And sound the horn to charge the besiegers
The hunters are hunted again.
I am born a king and will die a king
The blade of my axe is my witness.
The deceivers' blood paved my way to the throne
Now I am here to stay!
God's fire of hate and destruction is here to kill,
The trebuchet's shape standst tall.
Attack is imminent, but I have no fear
I won't be dethroned.
As in 1282, when flames reached the sky,
I am ready again to swing my axe
And sound the horn to charge the besiegers
The hunters are hunted again.
I am born a king and will die a king
The blade of my axe is my witness.
The deceivers' blood paved my way to the throne
Now I am here to stay!
God's fire of hate and destruction is here to kill,
But I shall triumph once again by the steel of my axe!
I sharpened my blade for all these years
Waiting to take my revenge.
The heads of those who tried to dethrone me
Will taste te cold steel, and then roll.
I took my path, my decisions are made
I now cheer with blood in my horn.
I reign my kingdom, your only choice to obey,
Speak to my axe then to me.
I am born a king and will die a king
The blade of my axe is my witness.
Deceivers' blood paves my way to the throne
I am here to stay!
God's fire of hate and destruction is here to ki.
I shall triumph once again by the steel of my axe!
I hail this land, my kingdom again
No mercy for the deceivers
Axe at my side, my reign is of steel
As of steel is my pride
I sharpened my blade for all these years
Waiting to take my revenge.
The heads of those who tried to dethrone me
Will taste te cold steel, and then roll.
I took my path, my decisions are made
I now cheer with blood in my horn.
I reign my kingdom, your only choice to obey,
Speak to my axe then to me.
I am born a king and will die a king
The blade of my axe is my witness.
Deceivers' blood paves my way to the throne
I am here to stay!
God's fire of hate and destruction is here to ki.
I shall triumph once again by the steel of my axe!
I hail this land, my kingdom again
No mercy for the deceivers
Axe at my side, my reign is of steel
As of steel is my pride
