Random post

I had been digging through my play list and I found some songs produced a few years back and they still sound great to my ears. Well, one particular band I revisited is DragonForce, well they fall under the genre of music I listen to in which many people regard as 'noise', metal. They are a power metal band, where they lyrics are quite magical or more to a fantasy type of story. Speed is quite common among the power metal bands and DragonForce is by far the fastest among the rest. However, their live performance is just B-A-D, which is why most people refer them as a 'studio-band', although it has to be said that their more recent performances are much better. Studio or not, their songs are cool so credit to them...however, yes...most of their songs would sound the same in a sense that it starts of with a medium length intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, super long solo, chorus and outro...The is pretty much the arrangements of most of their songs, nonetheless, its still cool =).

When speaking of DragonForce, most people would know the song 'Through the Fire and Flames', cool song but that is not what I am going to share this time around. I am going to share this song, 'Valley of the Damned'. I like the feel of the song where it felt like a strong crowd kinda feel singing the song together..make sense? Just that with the solo of the previous song mentioned (lazy to type out...), the solo of this songs is not...on-par? All in all, still nice =).


Valley of the Damned

On a cold dark winter night hidden by the stormy light
A battle rages for the right for what will become
In the valley of the damned a warrior with sword in hand
Travels fast across the land for freedom he rides

And the sign from the master on high screams aloud and across hear the cry
For the kingdom of fire and ice and the power to be alive
Be strong ride on, carry on through the war
Come along carry on, living for ever more

On the wings of death by the hands of doom
By the darkest light from the darkest moon
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
For we stand as one tonight

On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light

In the valley of the damned
Days breaks with golden strand
Over pastures green it glows
To where night returns

In the shadows faces appear
Warriors wearing full metal gear
All join together one and all
Before the glorious light

Rise up, gather around
Come and hear what is said
Use your senses open your mind
Don't you ever forget

On the wings of life, by the hands of hope
By the brightest light from the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
To the valley of the damned

On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light

On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light

The black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light

The black...
