Mob Rules - 'Back to Savage Land' (official music video)

Never again we’ll stand alone
Won’t regret what we’ve become
Take your time and watch the sky
We’ve traversed this path before
Like a journey déjà vu
With each step - familiar echoes guide us through
Welcome back to the Savage Land
With hands up high
We will claim the prize
See a shining light
All across the midnight sky
For us
We will live our lives
We came to see
Our fate or misery
A reflection of the past
Toxic trace in shattered glass
Mirrored memories torn apart
Can you hear the distant roar
Destination is unknown
Shelterless - we will win or we will die
Welcome back to the Savage Land
With hands up high
We will claim the prize
See a shining light
All across the midnight sky
For us
We will live our lives
We came to see
Our fate or misery
For us
We will live our lives
We came to see
Our fate or misery
Welcome back to Savage land
Savage Land

Μία... ενδεκάδα full length albums συμπληρώνουν φέτος οι Mob Rules. "Rise of the Ruler" ο τίτλος και αναμένεται στα τελειώματα του καλοκαιριού. Οι Mob Rules μας έρχονται από την Γερμανία. Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από 41 έτη, πήραν το όνομά τους από τον δίσκο (και τραγούδι) των Black Sabbath και μας συστήνονται ως

«Melodic Power Metal from northern Germany. Formed in 1994 and rooted in classic Heavy Metal, NWOBH, Hard Rock and Progressive Metal».

Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει δέκα "ολοκληρωμένους" στουντιακούς δίσκους [αν συνυπολογίσουμε και το album "Timekeeper (20th Anniversary Box)"] με πλέον πρόσφατο τον δίσκο "Beast Reborn" που "βγήκε" προ οκταετίας, δύο EPs, ισάριθμα live albums, μία συλλογή, ένα boxed set και μπόλικα (είκοσι) singles...

Δελτίο τύπου: «When the North German power metallers Mob Rules present their new album "Rise Of The Ruler" on August 22nd, melodic power metal fans will be thrilled.

The follow-up to the successful chartbreaker "Beast Reborn" is full of engery, epic and creatuve hymns and continues also the concept story of their two early works "Savage Land" and "Temple Of Two Suns", with which Mob Rules laid the foundation for their career.»

Παρακολουθούμε το μουσικό βίντεο του τραγουδιού "Trial And Trail of Fear", για το οποίο ο τραγουδιστής Klaus Dirks μας λέει:

«Conceptually, ‘Back To Savage Land’ follows on from our first two albums and continues the concept story. Here, a group sets off for their old, abandoned homeland, the "Savage Land", and this arduous journey awakens memories for them.

The journey is fraught with danger, but there seems to be no alternative, creating a "do-or-die" atmosphere.

Detached from the concept story, "Back To Savage Land" also has a simple message: "It is a call for courage and perseverance, to focus on the goal and not let the imponderables and setbacks get you down".»
