Way of the Blade

A long time ago
In the city of Kyoto
A war of blades rages on
And in the eye of the storm
A living legend was born
Merciless strikes on and on
Killing and leaving no trace
Cross-shaped scar in his face
Enemies cowered in fear
In the fullmoon beware
You might be under his glare
Battousai's coming near
The way of the blade
Is my way of life
From slayer to wanderer
To end my days of strife
Reverse-blade in hand
To regain my pride
I shall repent
Fighting day and night
Total redemption
Is my obsession
Restraining demons inside
And the opinion of sheep
Won't make a wolf lose its sleep
Just a goal's sacrifice
Looking into my sword
I remember screams of the hordes
Hordes who died by my hand
In a past painted red
By the blood that I shed
When I killed on command

Freedom's Call

Behold the man who rides
The one with seven lives
The one who sold his soul
To achieve his ultimate goal
Alone at night he remembers
What made him never surrender
A strange whisper made him stand tall
Nothing else matters at all
But the freedom's call
Wild gleaming eyes
Piercing the night
Chasing the past for a fight
With the chain-breaking blade by your side
Gallopping hard
Gallopping fast
Fueled by the burning scars on your chest
Haunted by the nightmares that won't let you rest
Shackles and cages of steel
A life that was once too real
With torture and pain in the air
And shivering cries of despair
Once a man beaten and torn
Now a phoenix reborn
He now has the whole world to roam
But the past still carved in his bones
Wild gleaming eyes
Piercing the night
Chasing the past for a fight
With the chain-breaking blade by your side
Gallopping hard
Gallopping fast
Fueled by the burning scars on your chest
Haunted by the nightmares that won't let you rest
Through mountains, beaches and skies
The wind carries his cries
Like thunder shaking the earth
In the sign of freedom's rebirth
You are the chosen warrior
No one can stand in your way
Self-made fate cast upon you
To live and to die by the blade
Atop the mountain
He stands tall
And whispers a word
Long forgotten by men
Something he defends
Across the sea
He faces the waves
And whispers a word
Long forgotten by men
That word's "freedom"
Metallic sounds echo in your mind
Of chains long left behind
Though not here anymore
I feel them as strong as before
The scars and pain that I bear
You inflicted upon me
Remember them well
For they're the last things you'll see
The freedom's call
Is the voice of my soul

Spectral Devastation
by Solicitor
supported by 5 fans who also own “Way of the Blade - Single”
Mighty and really glorious speed metal, almost with hints of thrash, with an incredible front-lady with demon voice, so powerful, so godly :) It is truly a great album sounding like old-school production from the 80's, raw, unfiltered, full blast in your face, and with such a galloping speedy pace that it's hard to fully grasp, leaving you to want more at the end, so in the days of digital era it's easy, just hit play again, and again, and again !!!

Absolutely in love with the full length album (check it out too!!) "The Conquest..." I decided to get the demo too. A bit unfair that I discovered the newest first, so this is biased in a way, but the demo definitely sets the solid ground for what is to come next. Wish Century a century of success !!!
