WARRIORS OF THE SON
Estamos ante la primera toma de contacto con la escena internacional de la banda estadounidense "Saint", allá por los comienzos de la década de los 80, (1984). Realmente basta con mirar la portada de este "EP" "Warriors of the son", para saber al instante de que va este disco, absoluto hijo de su época, un heavy metal de la vieja escuela, que puestos a sorprender podría hacerlo al mirar su temática, "Heavy metal cristiano" una temática menos común si cabe en esos años de los inicios de nuestro sonido, en un grupo que por otra parte, con sus altos y bajos, y con alguna separación y reunión ha logrado resistir hasta nuestros días. Han editado, hasta la fecha de esta reseña, 11 LP's de estudio y dos EPs que completan su discografía, y su sonido ha ido cambiando un poco, también a medida que atravesaba las diferentes épocas que la banda ha vivido, en esa longeva carrera que les ha llevado de momento a atravesar cuatro décadas diferentes. Hoy quiero, como decía al inicio, dejar su primer material en el blog, una de las canciones de su EP debut de 1984, obra que sería reeditada en 2004 con dos temas más. Concretamente quiero dejar la que da nombre a la obra, "Warriors of the son" de la que dejo un enlace a youtube. Otra banda que descubrir si aún no lo has hecho, esta con una larga experiencia a sus espaldas, casi tan larga como su desconocimiento casi generalizado para el gran público, una vez más injustificado atendiendo a su calidad.
Behold in time the Son will rise, The sky will bleed the wrath of night
The Sons of light arise with thee they hear his call down to their knees
A battle rage they choose to go with hearts prepared for the next expo
Made up their minds, left all behind Give all they got wisdom fortified
They are the warriors of the Son of the King of the light
Arise with thee unto thy might
Warriors of the Son of the King of the light
They died with thee, they live to fight
Come wind, come storm, cold and freeze
The sons of light shall not retreat
Come fireballs and desert sands Come warriors with battle plans
By His strength the King of light starts pouring Out His rage
To slay the beast who has conquered the world at this stage
The sons of light they hear His call they know just what to do
Ten thousands and the mighty one They're coming to get you
The prince beneath, he won't delay his troopers foolish, void and lame
Commands the blood soaked battlefield He wages war and makes his kill
His time so short, he's soon to go back to his home abyss below
Though they have reigned for many years
The Sons of God they all shall fear
The Sons of light arise with thee they hear his call down to their knees
A battle rage they choose to go with hearts prepared for the next expo
Made up their minds, left all behind Give all they got wisdom fortified
They are the warriors of the Son of the King of the light
Arise with thee unto thy might
Warriors of the Son of the King of the light
They died with thee, they live to fight
Come wind, come storm, cold and freeze
The sons of light shall not retreat
Come fireballs and desert sands Come warriors with battle plans
By His strength the King of light starts pouring Out His rage
To slay the beast who has conquered the world at this stage
The sons of light they hear His call they know just what to do
Ten thousands and the mighty one They're coming to get you
The prince beneath, he won't delay his troopers foolish, void and lame
Commands the blood soaked battlefield He wages war and makes his kill
His time so short, he's soon to go back to his home abyss below
Though they have reigned for many years
The Sons of God they all shall fear
