Iron Void - 'A Dream To Some, A Nightmare To Others' (audio)

As I ride through fields of green
Guenevere my love, with peace, I forgive thee
I've always loved you and still do
To defend what was and dream of what could be

A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Now Merlin's gone
How can we recover?
A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Morgana's son
Mordred kills his mother

If only you were at my side
Amongst the standing stones, I kneel
In the dawn's light
Merlin lives on in our dreams
He speaks to us from there
A voice in the darkest night

A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Now Merlin's gone
How can we recover?
A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Morgana's son
Mordred kills his mother

Like a shadow I've become
I have returned Enchantress
Have you any magic left?
Use the charm, spell be undone
In Mordred's arms you lie
Old crone, by his hand you'll die

A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Now Merlin's gone
How can we recover?
A dream to some
Nightmare to others
Morgana's son
Mordred kills his mother

Οι Iron Void δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από 27 έτη, το φθινόπωρο του 1998, στην Αγγλία, αρέσκονται σε αργόσυρτα (doom metal) ηχητικά μονοπάτια, μας συστήνονται κάπως έτσι:

Iron Void was originally formed by Jonathan 'Sealey' Seale in November 1998 in order to create an old-school Doom Metal band worshipping at the altar of doom legends such as Black Sabbath, Saint Vitus, Pentagram, Trouble, The Obsessed & Cathedral with a strong NWOBHM influence

...και έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους ("Iron Void" 2014, "Doomsday" 2015, "Excalibur" 2018, "IV" 2023), ένα live album, ένα ep και δύο singles.

Εστιάζουμε στον δίσκο "Excalibur", ο οποίος κυκλοφόρησε τον Οκτώβριο του 2018 από την δισκογραφική εταιρεία Shadow Kingdom Records, αποτελείται από εννέα τραγούδια και (όπως "μαρτυρά" και ο τίτλος) μας αφηγείται την ιστορία - μύθο του βασιλιά Αρθούρου, των Ιπποτών της στρογγυλής τραπέζης και του σπαθιού Excalibur σε doom metal ρυθμούς...
