RAGNAROK
Poco a poco va tomando forma la discografía de la banda (mono miembro) Bloodshed Walhalla, de origen italiano y de regusto absolutamente clásico en lo que al sonido viking ambiental se refiere, con esas continuas reminiscencias a Bathory o Falkenbach que han estado presentes también en la estructura misma de las canciones, absolutamente ambientales, largas y complejas al tiempo que épicas y melódicas. Una vez más me quiero acercar a la obra de este italiano para dejar un tema del que resulta ser, a fecha de esta reseña, último disco editado por "Bloodshed Walhalla", "Ragnarok" de 2018. Cuatro temas lo componen extendiéndose, eso sí, por más de una hora, en temas largos marca de la casa, como decía más arriba. Quiero dejar la canción que da nombre a la obra, de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.
Ragnarok
Fate has come.
The twilight of the gods of thunder.
You do not fear because you're the chosen one.
Live or die.
This is not the end.
The God with one eye will knock on your door.
You will cross the black gate
You will enter in the fire. In the name of God.
Fimbulvetr, the harsh winter was the first sign.
Then came the time of the axes. Time of swords.
The one against the other, brothers against fathers.
They broke all ties of kinship. And one by one, gave themselves to death.
No one saw more the moon and sunlight,
dark was the day and night. no one ever saw more than one star.
Skǫll and Hati, the wicked wolves, the iron forest deserted.
They have always chased the stars, and finally found them.
now you're alone
but I am your God
you fight for me
until the end
Wake up and destroy the beast for me
Ragnarok
Fate has come.
The twilight of the gods of thunder.
You do not fear because you're the chosen one.
Live or die.
This is not the end.
The God with one eye will knock on your door.
You will cross the black gate
You will enter in the fire. In the name of God.
Here is an ash that everyone calls Yggdrasil,
where the god of all received the gift
of wisdom, hung for nine days, he sustains the nine worlds
but now he is shaking, and all boundaries fall.
Creatures of the chaos are attacking the world,
Fenrir has broken his chain
the giant serpent emerged from the sea,
Naglfar is mooring on the earth.
Loki, God of lying and of cunning, deceiver.
Why did you betray us?
You have given birth to the wolf that your father has chained.
the prophecy spoke of death.
Why did you not kill the beast. Why did not you defend your land,
The Giants now attack us and want our death.
In the twilight I fight the serpent, while the bridge is assaulted.
Heimdall is sounding the horn.
Múspellsmegir of fire. The horsemen ride on the bridge.
Under the power of their hooves and their jaws,
Bifrost is falling down.
Now all the Gods are at war. Blood War and ice in the nine worlds.
swords are broken and shields are on fire.
I see your face every night. I see your face when is dark . I see him in my dreams.
Always in my mind. Always in my dreams.
When the night he comes, all the lights are asleep.
All the bad thoughts die, and I open my eyes.
I look upward but there are no stars,
But why in the vision you show me how to die?
If you know my name, hear my plea and my tears.
If you know where i come from, now there is nothing left.
Take my horse and my sword of fire and reach the last seals.
But the sacrifice will be huge for you.
In that cursed place is tucked my heart.
I entrust to you my revenge on the dark.
But the sacrifice is too great for you.
You can not get to live, but you will die.
The Vígríðr plain was the battleground of the Gods, The battle for life or death.
The hordes of Muspell advanced to the battleground. Here came the serpent and the Wolf.
All the beasts joined the God of deceit, also Hryrm and the giants of fire
The battle between evil and good, the battle between life and death.
Ragnarok
Fate has come.
The twilight of the gods of thunder.
You do not fear because you're the chosen one.
Live or die.
This is not the end.
The God with one eye will knock on your door.
You will cross the black gate
You will enter in the fire. In the name of God.
The magic chain is broken and the wolf is free, and unleashed, attacks the God.
He opens his jaws to touch the earth and the sky.
The clash is violent, no holds barred, but Fenrir devours Odin with such ferocity and anger,
The Father of all has died. And the Aesir are crying.
Then from the hills, the guardian of the bridge delivers the decisive attack to the liar.
And so they will be reminded of their sad death.
The world is in flames. No one will be saved. The god of thunder has arrived.
Tyr and Víðarr avenge the Father of all. For me!!!
At the end of it all, here is the prophecy of the seer.
The world rises from the ashes, but a shadow resist.
Odin's heart imprisoned in Hell was released.
The warrior has given his life.
Thunder and praises over the light to the sons of Odin inherit his heart.
The human race, will rise again, by a new pair of souls.
My name is Baldr, my name is hope. I am the son of Odin and the runes
And in my dreams I flew in the sky, I cried and I died.
Fate has come.
The twilight of the gods of thunder.
