Red horizon turn?
Time has frozen between two worlds,
Frozen, empty mind
One thing you have surely lost,
The one thing you still yearn
Frozen people always want to
Leave this world behind
See the roof come falling down
Red horizon turning round
Broken people are earthbound
All of them will hit the ground
You were always first to go,
First to test your mind
People thought that you'd be strong
But you were first to burn
See the roof come falling down
Red horizon turning round
Broken people are earthbound
All of them will hit the ground
All of them will hit the ground
All of them supposed to heal
All of them without a sound
All of them are true and real
All of them, they will be found
All of them, they will be read
All of them below the ground
All of them will conquer death
Ο τέταρτος "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Lord Vicar είναι προ των πυλών. Ο διάδοχος του album "Gates of Flesh" (2016) φέρει τον τίτλο "The Black Powder" κι αναμένεται να κυκλοφορήσει στις αρχές του επόμενου μήνα. Οι Lord Vicar μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία.
Αποτελούνται από πρώην μέλη των Count Raven, Saint Vitus, Reverend Bizarre κι αρέσκονται σε doom μονοπάτια. Δηλώνουν ως επιρροές μπάντες όπως οι Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Saint Vitus, Trouble, Pentagram, Witchfinder General, The Obsessed...
Δελτίο τύπου: «The Black Powder is the fourth album from Lord Vicar. It was, like the previous album Gates of Flesh, recorded by audio wizard Joona Lukala at Noise for Fiction studio in Turku, Finland. All studio work took place in February and March of 2019. The studio has the benefit of a huge live room which gave the band the opportunity to capture a sound that breathes with the ambience of the space, but maintains the sonic weight for which they are rightly known.
This album is a return to longer form, and even more progressive song structures, but the punchier material is also provided with merciless precision, as well as soothing acoustic moments. The songwriting duties are shared by Kimi and Gareth, also Chritus providing lyrical output.
The album contains a loose lyrical concept relating to mankind’s endless lack of reason and weakness of stability, resulting to violence, war, manipulation of children, and numbing our minds in order to shut out the horror that is the reality we live in. We blow the black lines to feel good.
This takes place generation after generation, in an endless cycle of standing and falling. Musically and lyrically the album covers a wide spectrum of textures from the all out punky attack of ’The Temple in the Bedrock’, fragile beauty of ‘Nightmare’, to the oppressive menace of the more intense moments of ‘Sulphur, Charcoal and Saltpetre’. This album is a grower, meant to be listened repeatedly, full of subtle details that reveal themselves with each subsequent listen.»
