THE HEART OF THE UNICORN
Séptimo larga duración de los chicos de Kai Hansen, "No world order", del año 2001, un disco que llega tras un periodod de actividad muy intenso, tanto de la banda como de su motor principal Kai Hansen, ya que, en el año 2000, el grupo decide sacar un recopilatorio, "Blast form the past", pero con la particularidad, y es que pide a sus fans que voten a través de su web tres temas predilectos de cada disco hasta ese momento, votaciones que servirán para escoger los temas que irán en el doble recopilatorio y que la banda regrabará para la ocasión, todo un puntazo. Además por entonces Kai Hansen estaba ocupado con su proyecto paralelo "Iron Savior" y colaborando en los dos primeros trabajos de Avantasia, nada menos, pero aún así le dio tiempo a componer y grabar esta obra de Gamma Ray, "No world order" y una gira posterior de presentación de la misma que llevó a Gamma Ray a recorrer medio mundo, incluido Japón, y es que todo lo que se diga de est "Rey Midas" del heavy llamado Kai Hansen es poco. Volviendo al disco, quiero hoy dejar un tema de los muchos destacables de esta obra, en concreto su "Heart of the unicorn", tema directo y prototípico de Gamma Ray, del que dejo un enlace a youtube.
Masters are relentless, torture is for slaves
Money, greed and power drives you to obey
Temperature is rising, shakes me to the core
Blood and domination, victims of the law
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I see the demons rising, beyond their sleeping void
Deep and down the masters take them to the light
Their piercing rays are blazing, obliterating fast
All dreams are torn to pieces, vaporized at last
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I scan the dead horizon, illuminated curse
In squished imagination, catastrophies unfurl
Beyond the cataclysm, a dream of Unicorns
The purest heart in heaven, stabbed by poisoned thorns
Bloody angels, searing with fire-turn to dust
All through the millenniums, I've seen the writing on the wall
Into our oblivion, we are the riders on the storm
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
Beware - all dead
No light - all dead
No dreams - all dead
No life - you're dead
Money, greed and power drives you to obey
Temperature is rising, shakes me to the core
Blood and domination, victims of the law
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I see the demons rising, beyond their sleeping void
Deep and down the masters take them to the light
Their piercing rays are blazing, obliterating fast
All dreams are torn to pieces, vaporized at last
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I scan the dead horizon, illuminated curse
In squished imagination, catastrophies unfurl
Beyond the cataclysm, a dream of Unicorns
The purest heart in heaven, stabbed by poisoned thorns
Bloody angels, searing with fire-turn to dust
All through the millenniums, I've seen the writing on the wall
Into our oblivion, we are the riders on the storm
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
Beware - all dead
No light - all dead
No dreams - all dead
No life - you're dead
