Riot - Cry For The Dying

CRY  FOR  THE  DYING 

"Inishmore" es el titulo del décimo LP de estudio de la banda estadounidense Riot, una de las grandes bandas primigenias de heavy metal, uno de los fundamentales grupos que alimentó la inspiración para tantas bandas en los inicios de nuestro sonido, con un nombre en mayúsculas detras como era el de Mark Reale que tristemente muriese en 2012. En 1998 la banda publicaba esta album, ( en 1997 para Japón), un disco que innovaba en el sonido de la banda, con un cierto espíritu folk, celta, que quizá dejaría un tanto frios a los fans de toda la vida, pero que mostraba una versatilidad grande y la calidad inherente al grupo. Hoy quiero dejar en el blog la canción "Cry for the dying" perteneciente a la obra, y de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.

 I remember the sign on the wall
Listen brothers your destiny calls.
So they left in the dead of the night
Forming armies our soldiers unite !
Sailing blindly, all around me, send them off to war.
Slowly rising, so suprising, thousand people or more
Sound the call to our country "come one and come all"

Cries of hypocrisy
filled with anger and greed
From the mouths that they feed
Letting people belive that they are free

Early morning the sun starts to shine
Bringing light to the dead and the dying
In the distance the cities still burn
Harsh resentment is all that we've learned
Some remember, gone forever, part of our history
We must question, every lesson, man's obsession and greed
Hear your cry for the dying but no one will see

Cries of hypocrisy
filled with anger and greed
From the mouths that they feed
Letting people belive that they are free
Some remember, gone forever, part of our history
We must question, every lesson, man's obsession and greed
Hear your cry for the dying but no one will see

Cries of hypocrisy
filled with anger and greed
From the mouths that they feed
Letting people belive that they are free
