ON HOOVES OF GOLD
Grand Magus son una banda sueca de heavy metal con influencia doom, ya sabéis, esa tendencia que muchos consideran un subgénero, en el que con una base de heavy metal los riffs se vuelven un poco más graves y la atmósfera general más lenta y pesada. Pues bien Grand Magus se forma en 1996, como digo en Suecia, aunque durante los primeros años de existencia de la banda funcionan bajo el nombre de "Smack", adoptando su definitivo Grand Magus desde 1999 en adelante. En todo el tiempo de existencia de la banda han editado un total de siete LP's, y el octavo está a punto de ver la luz, "Sword songs" que saldrá a la venta el 13 de mayo de este 2016. Mientras esperamos poder escuchar su material nuevo yo quiero hoy dejar en el blog un tema de otro de sus discos, su aún último disco hasta dentro de un par de meses, "Triumph and Power", de 2014, del que hoy quiero concretamente dejar la canción "On Hooves Of Gold", con ese toque épico tan habitual de la banda en ocasiones, como en esta con un cierto regusto "manowaristico" incluso, y de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
They are masters of defiance - masters of the wind
Let us fly together - let the change begin
Mountains lie below us - the stars are getting near
All doubt has left my being - strength replacing fear
And they said it's too late - but the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
Consuming without feeling - a hollow life of shame
The elders, well of knowledge - discarded, thrown away
New gods taking over - thievery and false pride
Burn the gifts of nature, laugh at the giver of life
With greed raping the land
They don't even know what they demand, no
And they say it's too late - but the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
Ride the wind - change begin
And they say it's too late
But the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
Let us fly together - let the change begin
Mountains lie below us - the stars are getting near
All doubt has left my being - strength replacing fear
And they said it's too late - but the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
Consuming without feeling - a hollow life of shame
The elders, well of knowledge - discarded, thrown away
New gods taking over - thievery and false pride
Burn the gifts of nature, laugh at the giver of life
With greed raping the land
They don't even know what they demand, no
And they say it's too late - but the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
Ride the wind - change begin
And they say it's too late
But the bastards will pay
As we ride the wind and fly
On hooves of gold we ride
