THE LOST VIKINGS
De las muchas fórmulas para crear una banda, hay alguna que se sale digamos de los cauces habituales por su planteamiento anecdótico podríamos decir, como ocurre con los estadounidenses Dethklok, planteados como una banda virtual que da vida a una serie para adultos, donde todos los tópicos del heavy metal tienen cabida de una manera absolutamente llevada al extremo, sátira de este mundillo nuestro que sin embargo siempre, desde el inicio, supo componer la banda sonora de la serie de manera perfectamente real, hasta el punto de alcanzar gran aceptación que terminaría por alimentar a la serie y con ella a la propia banda para publicar ya, a fecha de esta reseña, seis LP's desde 2006 en que comienza esta aventura. Hoy de su debut ""The Dethalbum" de 2007, quiero dejar en el blog la canción "The lost vikings" de la que dejo un enlace a youtube.

Riding and riding
We search across the land
The snow and wind
Has frozen hearts of man
But we ride
We ride
Many days ago we left our homes
With swords to ride into the night
Fighting side by side
To destroy our foes
And leave them without life
We stop, consider
The land that we traveled
Our map's at home
Direction unraveled
Many days ago we left our homes
With swords to ride into the night
Fighting side by side
To destroy our foes
And leave them without life
So much time has passed
Since we left our home
That we've become concerned
That we'll never find the battle
That we should've fought and won
But we won't stop searching
Lost but still we ride
Search until we die
We ride
We ride
Hungry and tired
The frigid plane yields little
We trudge on further
Eating pride and snow that's brittle
We ride
We ride
We come upon a witch
Who takes us in to let us share
her nightly fire
She asks of us our story
And we lie and say we ride around for hire
She asks us if like have her map
And point us in some direction
But we are far to proud and strong
So we keep silent and ignore her
suggestion
Lost but still we ride
Search until we die
All the fault of pride
The gods weep in the night
We ride
We ride
