Ancient Bards - Soundbound Symphony - Canciones Para Una Vida

SOUNDBOUND  SYMPHONY

Los italianos Ancient Bards están de regreso en este 2025 con su nueva obra "Artifex", tras más de un lustro de silencio (desde 2019) desde la publicación de su anterior LP, el caso es que esta banda de power sinfónico formada en 2006 no ha destacado nunca por su cantidad, siempre se han tomado su tiempo entre obra y obra, algo que se va alargando cada vez más a medida que pasan los años, así, con casi ya veinte años de actividad cinco obras de estudio (si incluimos "Artifex" que verá la luz de forma oficial el 25 de abril) se antoja una discografía un tanto escasa, aunque sin duda alguna interesante. De momento han dejado un par de adelantos de la nueva obra, uno de ellos este "Sounbound Symphony" del que dejo hoy un enlace a youtube.

We're close, where the end crawls, where the end crawls, where the end crawls, where the end crawls, where the end crawls, where the end crawls, where the end crawls
The two sides cross swords

Underneath the blood red sky,
As tension rises high,
soldiers ignited by stellar beams,
march to summon forth their violent dreams.

Drums resound, Lork dons his shield
and scans the shadowed field
seeking his foe, Eirene, sword in grasp,
Their eyes meet with an unspoken clasp.

Here comes the showdown, hymns of destruction incite with fury the ride into battle

The medallions on their chest,
twin symbols of their quest
Into the heat they merge, morph and shine,
A true testament of sign divine.

As Malaureum's force compels,
the crystal sword excels
each kill now captures the fallen's soul,
as it reaps the grim war's dire toll.

Here comes the showdown, hymns of destruction incite with fury the ride into battle

Can't you hear me play this soulbound symphony?
every swing is like a saving note soaring free
hear the chords progress, a waltz of jubilee
my baton's a crystal crafting pure harmony

No longer a weapon
an urn full of pain
the keeper of memories
of spirits it chains
with every soul imbibed
the white crystal sword is
slowly turning black

Eaons of darkness tethered to the sword
this is your prison finely forged by light

Can't you hear me play this soulbound symphony?
every swing is like a saving note soaring free
hear the chords progress, a waltz of jubilee
my baton's a crystal crafting pure harmony

No longer a weapon
an urn full of pain
the keeper of memories
of spirits it chains
powered by souls imbibed
the black sword is charged
and reaching the last movement of this sonata
our triumphant choir will rise
