Ancient Empire - 'Lightning Storm' (Flogging Molly cover)

This lonely existence paves the way
For the heart of hearts must beat be brave
While this quiet lightning storm
Wrecks the harvest gold we tried to sow

So it begins, the way the blood still dances beneath the skin
As the messenger from hell says we're bound to win
As the days, they come, but the years, they go
So take care of your freedom they'll never know

I sit on the wing for a blackbird's song
To tell me where and when this all went wrong
There's no resolution without remorse
With ignorance, bliss, defend, let's stay the course

Puncture the skin and see its blood run cold on desert sand
Come hear the men from mothers with childless hands
As the days, they come, but the years, they go
So take care of your freedom they'll never know

Take good care of your freedom
They'll never know

Take what you give until there is nothing left, but forever live
And night descends on shadows without their kill
As the days, they come, but the years, they go
So take care of your freedom they'll never know

Yeah, take good care of your freedom
They'll never know

As the days, they come
But the years, they go
So take care of your freedom
They'll never know

Οι Ancient Empire αποτελούν ένα από τα αγαπημένα (νέα) μουσικά συγκροτήματα της ιστοσελίδας μας. Τον παρακολουθούμε και καταγράφουμε την (δισκογραφική) παρουσία και πορεία τους την τελευταία εξαετία. Οι Ancient Empire μας έρχονται από τις ΗΠΑ. Power metal συγκρότημα που δημιουργήθηκε πριν από μία ενδεικάδα έτη κι έχει κυκλοφορήσει έξι "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους:

➜ "When Empires Fall" 2014
➜ "Other World" 2016
➜ "The Tower" 2017
➜ "Eternal Soldier" 2018
➜ "Wings of the Fallen" 2019
➜ "Priest Of Stygia" 2021

Δύο εξ αυτών ("Other World" και "The Tower") θα επανακυκλοφορήσουν μέσω της Stormspell Records. Στην παρούσα ανάρτηση όμως θα ακούσουμε την απόπειρά τους στο τραγούδι των Flogging Molly "Lightning Storm", με την Αμερικάνικη μπάντα να μας λέει σχετικά: «Covering one of the great bands from the last 25 years!»
