DRAGON'S MIST
Manticora es una banda danesa cuyo sonido abarca desde el power metal, pasando por una vertiente más progresiva o un heavy-speed metal de corte más clásico según la época que se mire o el tema que se escoja. Este grupo lleva tiene ya detrás una larga trayectoria que comienza en 1996, bajo el nombre de "Manticore", para desde 1997 en adelante cambiarlo a "Manticora" con el que siguen en la actualidad en activo, a pesar de no sacar material nuevo de estudio desde 2010 con su "Safe", que supone su séptimo y, hasta la fecha de esta reseña, último disco de estudio de la banda. Con una temática que va desde la ciencia ficción a la literatura y la fantasía, la banda ha siempre tenido una estabilidad en su formación que aún perdura en parte, pues en la parte de guitarra y vocal continuan estando los mismos músicos que iniciaron esta andadura musical. Hoy quiero dejar en el blog un tema de su segundo LP, "Darkness with tales to tell", de 2001, del que quiero dejar un enlace a youtube de su canción "Dragon's Mist" un tema muy power en la onda europea de la época
Standing at the crossroad watching men in armour fighting
The fog is lying thick, the ground is shrouded in the dark
The battle for the throne increases as it's done forever
A dragon in disquise will send a knight to make its mark
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
Still the battle roars in spite of finding of thr king
In search for pease he puts his life into the mighty hands
Of knights who once refused to crown him as their rightful heir
At last they gather'round the table, summoning the lands
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
A dream to some
A nightmare to others
The peace will come
And Mordred will be born a bastard son
The wizard and his powers will predict the silent future
He holds the key to all success and forces it to the door
To understand the secrets of his whisperings and riddles
They die, and so the legend will live on forever more
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
The fog is lying thick, the ground is shrouded in the dark
The battle for the throne increases as it's done forever
A dragon in disquise will send a knight to make its mark
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
Still the battle roars in spite of finding of thr king
In search for pease he puts his life into the mighty hands
Of knights who once refused to crown him as their rightful heir
At last they gather'round the table, summoning the lands
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
A dream to some
A nightmare to others
The peace will come
And Mordred will be born a bastard son
The wizard and his powers will predict the silent future
He holds the key to all success and forces it to the door
To understand the secrets of his whisperings and riddles
They die, and so the legend will live on forever more
Fly away on the dragon's mist
And seek the heir of kings
I'll crave your first-born son in trade
Of one night of your dreams
Oh, give him the power
Please bless him with the strength
To pull Excalibur out of the stone
